PlayStation 4 game console review

It's huge question: Should you buy the new PlayStation 4? The short answer: Yes, definitely. But maybe not quite yet. Let's take a deeper look. The PS4 is a more compact console than the towering PS3. It's Sony's best ever, full of thoughtful improvements. But $400 is a lot of money to spend.

  • better graphics
Cons:
  • Needs more exclusive, must-have games
  • won't play PS3 games
