Sony PlayStation 4 Review

It's not enough to just be a gamer anymore. Hardware makers know that you're using any number of devices at any given moment, even while you're in the act of fragging dudes in the latest shooter, and the next generation of consoles has been designed with that in mind.

The best next-gen choice so far, but not perfect

If you're looking to jump into the new generation of consoles and want the highest possible performance without spending a small fortune, look no further than the PlayStation 4. Pound-for-pound compared to the Xbox One and Wii U, the PS4 reigns as the most powerful "next-gen" console in 2014.
Pros:
  • Perfect controller
  • more powerful specs than Xbox One
  • higher resolution multiplatform games
  • only $399
  • compact form factor
  • runs quiet
Cons:
  • Lacks some functionality that even the PS3 has
  • not much of a game library yet

PlayStation 4 review: One year on, it's the choice console for gamers

One year after its initial release, and to cap off two decades of PlayStation, the Sony PlayStation 4 finds itself in an esteemed position at the tail-end of 2014. The PS4 seems to be winning the new-generation console race against the Xbox One - at least, in terms of sales - and its growing library...
Pros:
  • Fast user interface
  • powerful for producing graphical gaming marvels
  • holds masses of future potential
  • Remote Play via PS Vita is fun
  • strengthening games lineup
Cons:
  • Still no media streaming
  • 500GB storage insufficient
  • Store download prices are often absurdly high

Sony PlayStation 4 (PS4)

Two years into its life cycle and the Sony PlayStation 4 has definitely reached its stride. The eighth-generation game system packs the same impressive power, excellent DualShock 4 controller, and nearly identical interface it had when the system launched, and remains a strong, compelling package.
Pros:
  • Attractive, compact design
  • DualShock 4 feels much better than the Sixaxis or DualShock 3 controllers before it
  • Great streaming support
  • Many new features
Cons:
  • Most features require a PlayStation Network connection
  • Non-free-to-play multiplayer requires a PS Plus subscription
  • DualShock 4 lightbar can't be turned off

Sony PlayStation 4 Review

Sony and Microsoft have online multiplayer for their consoles, but you have to pay for them. PlayStation Plus costs slightly less than Xbox Live Gold for an annual membership, but is the same price month-to-month.
