Pros and Cons: PlayStation 4

Basic Information:
Brand:  Sony

Release Date:  November 15, 2013

What You'll Love:

• Built in screenshot and video capture software
• Background updating, downloading, and installing
• Music player can be used while playing any game (only certain games supported on PS3)
• New rest mode allows for updating, controller charging, and in-game suspension while the system is off (similar to sleep mode on the PSP)
• 500GB hard drive

What You'll Have Mixed or No Feelings About:

• Currently, an unimpressive library of games (Xbox has the same problem)
• Change in dashboard configuration
• Touchpad on the controller is never used innovatively in gameplay
• Microphone on the controller doesn't add much
• There's a game sharing feature I'm never going to use

What You'll Hate.........Or Find Hilariously Bad:

• No more free online play
• Forced change to YouTube ID if linked to PSN account
• Joystick pads designed in a way that makes them more likely to break
• Useless controller light just drains battery life
• Lower placement of PS button makes it more likely to be hit on accident if your thumb slips inwards
• No function to save music onto the hard drive like you could with the PS3
• Music player does not play wma format (holding a grudge against microsoft, I see...)

Consoles Similar to This:

• Xbox One
• Nintendo Wii U (but not really)
