Playstation 4 News and Rumors Top 5

Over the past several months a lot has been said about the Playstation 4 and how and when it could be announced officially by Sony with a release date. We have found many instances where Sony staffers or Playstation employees (and even management) have referenced the system, but now more than ever the Playstation team has become great at keeping secrets… Many gamers believe (according to the poll on our site) that the next generation of the Playstation game console is not likely to be released before the winter of 2012, and hopefully it will be the first console from Playstation to be completely backwards compatible (or at the very least compatible with the Playstation 3 games and Playstation Move).

Here is a collection of the top 5 great articles or rumors we have found and presented to you, the reader, regarding the Playstation 4 and when it may be released, what it may contain, and also some real great Playstation 4 concept images and designs. It may be a few years off but it is certain that the next generation Playstation console will be something amazing and offer capabilities that many of us can only imagine at this point.

1)Playstation 4 Released as a 3d console This is a great article showing off the capabilities for the new series of televisions, most of which are 3d. This is a real important aspect for Playstation gamers out there… it is unlikely that many of the existing consoles can handle this type of gaming, so it is already becoming apparent that the Playstation 4 will be an essential addition in the not too distant future.

2)PS4 as a Multimedia Center With the way Sony over delivered with the Playstation 3 console in terms of the hardware provided, it can be easily assumed that the Playstation 4 will over deliver in the same way. The Playstation 3 in addition to being an amazing gaming console is also the most widely used BlueRay player in the country… Thats a big deal, Sony almost eliminated the need for the majority of consumers to purchase a BlueRay players simply by providing it in their system, at a time when a BlueRay player on its own would have cost consumers upwards of $400. It is possible that the Playstation 4 will include additional innovative hardware, although there are also several rumors that the Playstation 4 may (in addition to a BlueRay player) include a receiver for in home audio systems… again increasing the usage and versatility of the Playstation brand.

3)Playstation 4 Designs and Rumors This post led to the submission of so many designs that the site is now full of custom fan art and concept designs… This post even later ended up becoming a contest on 99designs.com to see just how unique and impressive Playstation fans could get when coming up with a completely unique console design on their own. A lot of fun and a ton of concept images later the fans voted a winner and it is a great red and white retro design, although unlikely to look anything like what Sony will unveil when they announce the Playstation 4, the winning concept design can be seen below.
This design, while catchy and a great design is unlike thee last 3 generations of Playstation and does not seem to have the space that would be required for the Playstation 4 to also act as a multimedia center. This design however was voted the most popular of the concept designs and as such is featured throughout the site, along with several others of the Playstation 4 popular concept designs.

5)Playstation Move (Playstation Motion Controller) Another real big news event was the release of the Playstation motion controller set to be available late 2010. This is another device that is sure to sell out, being the introduction of motion gaming to the most successful and advanced console to the world… Expect the Playstation Move to be the most desired gift this Christmas shopping season, and with an expected price tag of only $100 everyone with a Playstation 3 is going to want one… So again it is important to be on top of the pre order information, so check back often and as soon as there are pre orders retailers available we will let you know.
