Die PlayStation 4 richtet sich mit ihren Funktionen zur Veröffentlichung vor allen Dingen an eine Zielgruppe: an Konsolenspieler. Überragende TV-, Kamera- oder Multimedia-Funktionen gibt es nicht – dafür ist die Konsole schnell, zaubert eine wunderschöne,...

Die Playstation 4 überzeugt bereits in ihrer ersten Ausführung, denn Sony hat eine sehr kompakte Konsole mit integriertem Netzteil designt. Dank der hohen Leistung und der zwar nicht optimalen, aber übersichtlichen und direkt reagierenden Oberfläche vermi...

Abstract: Mit der Mensch-Maschine-Schnittstelle namens DualShock 4 für die PlayStation 4 von Sony hat man sich viel Arbeit gemacht. Dabei wurde viel herumgeschraubt und es wurden etliche Features ausgetestet, um bei möglichst vielen Features zu sehen, ob sie umsetz...
Abstract: as LineUp ist komplett: Sony, Microsoft und Nintendo haben ihre Konsolen der "nächsten Generation" vorgestellt. Zugegeben, Nintendos bereits im vergangenen Jahr erschienene WiiU orientiert sich technisch eher an der letzten Generation und fällt in unserer kleinen Betrachtung des Konsolenmarktes daher raus. Die im Februar vorgestellte Playstation 4 und die erst vor wenigen Tagen präsentierte XBox One (XBone?) hingegen werden sich voraussichtlich ab Ende dieses Jahres ein Leistungs- und Spieleduell leisten. ....
vom Cloudgaming abgesehen) kamen gab es einen großen Aufschrei. Davon sind die Forendiskussionen bei der PS4 interessanterweise bislang verschont geblieben: Viele Sony-Fans verteidigen diese Technologien und finden sie jetzt auf einmal sogar sehr prakti...

Design is strak en past overal bij, Prijs is aantrekkelijk, Controller heeft nuttige vernieuwingen en ligt fijn in de hand, First Party Studios en dus de exclusieve games, CEC-HDMI, Startscherm is overzichtelijk en snel
Multimediamogelijkheden niet uitgebreid (geen DLNA/video van USB), Nog geen organisatie van games/apps mogelijk (indelen in mappen, groeperen)
De hype is gerechtigd en de console zal een mooie tijd tegemoet komen...
Mooi Design, No-nonsense apparaat, Update al je games automatisch, Saves zijn opgeslagen in de cloud, Dualshock 4, 1080P gaming op 60 FPS
Verplicht Playstation Plus, Aan/uit knop reageert soms niet, Precisie nodig om iets in de poorten te steken, Mediasupport is brak
Sinds het begin heb ik een PS4 vanwege de grote aankondigingen en de hype. Voor het eerst is er een product dat qua gaming de hype waarmaakt. De controller is enorm fijn om te gebruiken en de PS4 zelf is enorm snel, vloeiend en doet gewoon wat het moet ...
