Will you be getting the PlayStation 4 * Orbis * Info+

[Cheech & Chong]

Information so far:


1. It might not be called PlayStation 4
Early word is that the next-generation PlayStation will be called the "Orbis."


2. The visuals will blow your mind
The Orbis will reportedly support 3D games and a maximum screen resolution of 4096 x 2160, which is far above the current standard for high-definition televisions.



3. It won't support old games
Remember how the PlayStation 3 was shamelessly incompatible with PS2 games, asks Plunkett. The same applies here: Sources say the Orbis "won't even bother, and that Sony has no plans to offer backwards compatibility for its existing catalog of PS3 games."


4. Orbis could kill the used-games market
Orbis games will reportedly be available either for download or purchase (in Blu Ray format). And these games, reports Plunkett, will be locked into a single account per user, which means that if a friend loaned you a game, you wouldn't be able to access the whole game, just a restricted version.

NO WAY. i will never support the future generation of consoles which has been said to remove the used-games market as you have mentioned. this will make it impossible to even play a game u just got at your friends house, etc. it is ridiculous destruction of the gaming world powered by greed

 

[Emperor Nero]

No, it is ridiculous trying to destroy the used game market, it is a sad day when that happens honestly. Also the PS3 wasn't as good as the 360, so I am guessing what ever Microsoft has in store for us will be better. Sony has really gone down hill.

 

[kill dank]

Booooooguuuuusssssssssssss....

Not like someone won't find a way around the used game shit though.

 

[woodcut ox]

If you cant buy games used then ill go to fucken xbox. Real greedy shit right there. That WILL lose my loyalty.

 

[JamRsPins]

Yes, ages off release though... Playstation ftw, been loyal since the first.

 

[Finlux]

I Perfer Playstation more then xbox, and I've had all playstation versions and will def buy playstation 4.

 

[Realsies]

I probably wouldn't have bought it anyways, but because of the used games thing...I most defiantly WON'T be buying it...

I'm not much of a console gamer...but when I do play them, I like to buy used games for cheap..

 

[pie4muh]

The info released about consoles before they come out is rarely accurate, besides my pc will always be better.

 

^ rarely accurate, however if true @#$% Sony.

Money grabbing faggots. Just like with those EA online passes, hate those aswell.

 

[Cheech & Chong]

I have to agree the biggest dissapointment is the used game thing. This also puts Gamestop and stores alike out of business...

 

[Try and run]

No, I won't. Last game system I bought was my 360, and I only played it for a month when I first got it, never since. I'm not planning on buying any new game systems again. I just stick to playing n64, game boy, ps1, ps2, gamecube, nes, and snes games. Although I do like to play computer games from the 90s - early 2000s (nothing really later than 02).

I just don't get the same enjoyment from current video games that I did with previous ones.

 

[idrinkgas]

Doubtfully, recently bought my xbox and I don't support the sony market anyways.

 

[SexayMistahBee]

The younger generations will leap in joy,
the older generations will weep in despair.

Orbis is probably just the codename.

I'm always game for something new so yeah, I would buy it (IF I HAD THE DAMN MONEY)

 

[Sartana]

Orbis sounds really stupid lol.

Yo guys, you wanna play my Orbis?!

Cool! So instead of simply bringing over my game to a friend's house I'll just bring over MY ENTIRE CONSOLE. Sony, you are fucking idiots.

 

[Cheech & Chong]

Yeah Orbis is just the codename, But who knows, They might stick to it.. Hopefully not.

 

[Cheech & Chong]

All Microsoft has to do now is not restrict the games

 

[Annex]

I don't see a point to owning a gaming console really, its controls are always so terrible compared to PC, their hardware is always comparable to a 2 year old computer, and you occupy a (or the only) TV while you play. Also any decent game will still come out on the computer anyways with few exceptions.

 

[Lame]

the new xbox will be doing the same thing to prevent used games sales. So ill be getting the orbis.
