The PlayStation 4 (officially abbreviated as PS4), is a video game console from Sony Computer Entertainment. Announced as the successor to the PlayStation 3 during a press conference on 20 February 2013, it was launched on 15 November 2013, in North America, and 29 November 2013, in Europe and Australia.[9][10] It competes with Nintendo's Wii U and Microsoft's Xbox One, as one of the eighth generation of video game consoles.

Moving away from the more complex Cell architecture of its predecessor, the PlayStation 4 features an AMD x86-64 Accelerated Processing Unit, in hopes of attracting a broader range of developers and support for the system. The PlayStation 4's GPU can perform 1.843 teraflops, making it the world's most powerful games console.[11]

Sony intends more focus on social gameplay, incorporating a "share" button on the new controller and enabling a view of in-game play streamed live from friends. The console enables interactivity with other services and devices through the following methods: PlayStation Now, a cloud-based gaming service that offers streaming video game content;[12] PlayStation App, designed to enhance gameplay by using smartphones and tablets as a second screen; and PlayStation Vita's design for playing a majority of PlayStation 4 games through wireless Remote Play.

During the 2014 fiscal year, demand for PS4 assisted Sony to top global console sales.

PS4 System Update 1.75 Is Now Live, Adds 3D Blu-ray Support And More?


Almost right after the release of the latest system update for the PlayStation 4 last week, Version 1.74, we got news that PS4 System Update 1.75 was already close to release courtesy of the official PlayStation Twitter account. They certainly weren’t kidding as less than a week later, the update has already gone live.

Unlike the last few that brought merely more stability to the console itself, this update provides us with a feature that many have been requesting, 3D Blu-ray support. This is something that the PlayStation 3 has had for awhile, so it is really no surprise to see the latest Sony platform get it as well.



According to a poster on NeoGAF that had received the prompt to update, something else is part of this update as well, known as “featured content automatic download.” As of right now, we really do not know what this means. Perhaps it could be something like we saw with the Wii U with downloading of major demos like Wii Sports Club on its own, while the console is in standby mode. We will have to wait until Sony releases more info on this one to find out.

Randomly, notifications have also been moved to the left side according to the update notes, which can be seen below:

Playback of Blu-ray 3D™ is now supported.
Sound quality has been improved during 1.5x playback with Blu-ray Disc™ and DVD videos.
System messages previously displayed on the top-right corner of the screen are now displayed on the top-left corner of the screen.
[Featured Content] has been added to (Settings) > [System] > [Automatic Downloads and Uploads].
When this setting is enabled, featured content from the PlayStation®Store is automatically downloaded while the PS4™ system is either powered on or in standby mode.
To download while in standby mode, go to (Settings) > [Power Save Settings] > [Set Functions Available in Standby Mode], and then turn on [Connect to the Internet].
Look for System Update 1.75 as it should be hitting your PlayStation 4 consoles right now.

STING PRE-ORDER TRAILER
WWE 2K15 PRE-ORDER BONUS REVEALED AS STING
No, not the one from The Police.

BY: LUKE KARMALI
JULY 15, 2014
WWE 2K15 is getting a pre-order bonus in the form of 90s wrestling star Sting.
ADVERTISEMENT

Anyone who pre-orders the title on PS4, Xbox One, PS3 or Xbox 360 will receive two versions of the character, the first modeled off Sting in his black and white face paint guise from WCW Monday Night War, while the other shows off the blond-coiffed look he displayed before.
"The only thing for sure about Sting is nothing's for sure, except my debut in WWE 2K15," said Sting. "I'm honoured to have my legacy immortalised in a video game. It's showtime!"

The latest installment in the popular franchise is set to hit PS4, Xbox One, PS3 and Xbox 360 on October 28 in North America and on October 31 internationally. It's available for pre-order now on Amazon.
