New PlayStation 4 Concept Design

We’ve been providing you with fan-crafted PlayStation 4 concepts for a long time now. Recently, a new concept hit the market, but this one is a little different: the creator, Joseph Dumary, also says what specs it should have and the capabilities.

Dumary’s PS4 has a brand-new feature: ECO Restart. Basically, the console uses a rechargeable battery to stay in a power-friendly mode after turned off, making it easier on the console when it is turned back on for play later.

This PS4 will also be made of 60% recycled materials, with magnesium alloy and carbon, making the overall console weight considerably light.
We’ve talked before about how Sony should incorporate and integrate the PS Vita and Sony S1 and S2 Tablets into the console, and that’s what Dumary did. You can use either as a remote control, a way to browse the web, or play games from a distance, knocking the Wii U controller out of the water.

The PS4 would have a 1.5TB harddrive, Blu-Ray and 3D support, USB 3.0, Sync, Cloud, and so much more. Even cooler? The PS4 controller would have a light sensor and an adjustment option for the analog stick, incase it’s too loose or too tight for the player’s gameplay.

The model is sleek, futuristic but not crazy looking, and fits the current models of PlayStation that we adore. What do you think? (Click on the images below if you want to see a larger view.)

Popular Playstation 4 Pictures

There have been a lot of concept images for the next generation of Playstation consoles… some of them are radically different from others, and it is really amazing to see where we are technologically, so ready for that next step. You can see through many of the concept images that have been submitted to SonyPS4.com that there is a real tech gap.

So lets take a look at some of the next gen, Playstation 4, gaming consoles concept images and designs.

This is a great design a lot more traditional then several others, click to view full image.

This one below is one of the most popular concept images circulating the rumor mill. This Playstation 4 concept image shows off the use of possible fiber optic wiring to have a seamless and/or clear background on the PS4 console, making it one of the most space aged (and still possible) Playstation concepts that have been submitted.

The Playstation 4 concept above is one of the cleanest looking designs that I have been able to come across, or that has been submitted to SonyPS4.com. The main problems that can be seen now  with this design is the lack of motion controllers (although even in Playstation 4 this could be an additional add-on to the system, as it is with the upcoming Playstation Move). Otherwise this Playstation 4 console is a very possible candidate , with a great retro design and sleek look, you never know…

The Playstation 4 concept below, Red and White, was the winning design submitted for the Playstation 4 concept design image contest. Featuring another very retro look and also lacking the motion control device that will surely accompany the next generation of Playstation consoles. The main reason that none of the concepts include any type of motion controller (such as the Playstation Move) is because all of these concept designs were created before the official announcement of such… With the introduction of the Playstation Move it is certain that the Playstation 4 will feature motion control gaming, hopefully even compatible with the Playstation Move.

The cloud and the Playstation 4 concept below are also leaning more to the sci-fi versions. Clearly leaning on the next tech jump both appear to offer some type of holograph or hologram display. While this would make for an amazing gaming system, it is not likely to be completed (or even truly considered) by the expected Playstation 4 announcement date of sometime late in 2012.

Playstation 4 Fan Art Designs

With the launch of the Playstation Move it is apparent that we are still at least a few years away from any official news regarding the Playstation 4 console, and with good reason, the Playstation Move is likely to add several years to the life span of the Playstation 3 console. It is also likely to take Sony that much time to really expand to the Playstation 3 console’s capabilities, especially with the addition of the motion control device and all of the additional gaming aspects that will bring.

But here we are still, even before the release of the Playstation Move, wondering what the next generation console will look like. The Playstation 4 may be a ways off, but we can still dream.

Here is another collection of some of the greatest fan art to have been found or submitted for the Playstation 4:

The Playstation 4 is going to be an amazing device, but we are still years away from such a gaming console. The Playstation Move is going to change the face of Playstation, and with it all of the concepts that have been dreamed up before it’s release. For example the next generation of Playstation 4 concept images and designs are sure to assume that the Playstation 4 will offer motion gaming, which few of the concepts thus far have.

We hope you are as excited about the Playstation 4 as we are, even if it will still be several years before it materializes.
