Sony: We're more committed to new IP than other publishers

Sony's major new franchise for the PS4 is The Order: 1886, an action adventure game set in an alternate universe. Killzone developer Guerrilla Games is also working on a new IP, described as "completely different" than the shooter series the studio is known for.

Guerrilla Games are awesome developers. A new IP from them is indeed refreshing as well as highly anticipated always.

4.5k for a game is a joke

Yes, this can be a factor in India. 4.5k is indeed a lot expensive. Meanwhile, game prices in the west are the same as previous consoles.
Maybe the situation here changes after the console is accepted widely here.

What are the India sales looking like so far?

40k is way too expensive. It's a 60% increase in price in a nation.

Wait, the PS4 isn't already media-center capable?

Nope its not. It can only play physical media as of now.
You have to rely on online streaming solutions to access digital content.

But those features will be added soon.

Your ticket to the PS4 buddy :)

That's retarded.

We don't know when Sony is going to add them, and they haven't said anything in a confirmed manner about adding them.

True that. But its hardly affecting gamers anyway.
Same thing for Xbox-One too. They don't have DLNA or media server capabilities.

How will one play first party exclusives without the PS4. Sony is well-known in the gaming industry for delivering beautiful first party experiences.
Some of them has been genre defining. See some of the best games of PS3 and you'll know. Games like "Journey", "Shadow of the Colossus","Heavy Rain","The Last Of Us" cannot be experienced anywhere. I'm a huge huge "Metal Gear Solid" fan. How will i play it if i don't own a console and have a 2 lakh + gaming rig? Different people have different priorities.

Its not only about the hardware but also the number of studios and developers involved. Console gaming exists due to these factors.

P.S - Besides, that 40k setup won't be able to outdo a PS4 in gaming performance. You need to spend much more than that.
And PS4 is in its infancy and these are launch titles. It has lots and lots of untapped power.

Well i dont have PS3 but still i have experienced games like Last of Us,Beyond Two Souls,Heavy Rain,etc by watching lets plays on youtube.These games are interactive movies anyways so i got to experience for free their wonderful stories. The only game i really want is GTA V which will also come to PC nxt year.

Well the Xbox One was a crapsole even before launch anyway.

Maybe, but it still sells like crazy. Gamers are almost as interested on it, as they are for the PS4.

Infact, its the quickest selling console of all time.

Sony Goes on a Hiring Spree in Wake of PS4′s Success While Microsoft Continues its Own in Full Swing

One of the best indicators of the success of a platform is seeing the company behind it hire new personnel actively to support it. We’ve seen it happening with Microsoft and the Xbox One over the last month and now Sony Computer Entertainment America is at it as well.
Today the publisher opened 13 new career opportunity ads seeking a variety of professionals, following another slew of 6 on December the 12 and several more in the last month. Since the North American launch of the PS4 the number of career opportunities offered by SCEA was 46, including multiple at Sony Santa Monica, which is known to be working on new titles for the PS4.

Sony Is Testing A Cloud Gaming Service Right Now

Thanks to an anonymous source, it appears we now have visual proof that Sony is testing their long awaited cloud gaming service with select persons today, under the rather clearly named “Cloud Gaming Test”.

Unknown at this time is any detailed information, but one can safely assume that this is connected to Sony’s much hyped Gaikai-powered streaming service, which was absent from the console’s launch but according to Sony Computer Entertainment President Andrew House, in an interview with The Guardian on Monday, is on track for a 2014 release and they are taking a “very gradual, step-by-step approach because, first and foremost, we want to ensure a good experience for customers.” Also mentioned are plans to bring the service to the PlayStation Vita.

A beta test for select gamers would certainly fit in line with a step-by-step approach, and one can imagine that new information from Sony cannot be far behind. You can see the image below.

Going by your logic, all you need is a tab and internet. I am sure you will not need much of explanation here on what i mean.

PS Vita sales jump 68% following PS4 launch

The launch of PlayStation 4 has helped boost PlayStation Vita sales significantly, MCV reports.

According to the magazine, Vita sales rose by 68 per cent in the week of PS4's launch, and by 65 per cent the week after. It isn't known how many units that translates to, however.

Sony attributes the hardware's success to the launch of the new console, which can use the Vita as a second screen device or as a replacement for a TV, and to a new marketing campaign.

"PS Vita sales wise we are continuing to see strong week-on-week growth since our latest campaign kicked in," said senior product manager Ben Law. "The new TV advert went live this week and we've already seen amazing feedback from PS4 owners on the Remote Play feature, and the success of Tearaway highlights what [a] great proposition PS Vita is, either as a standalone device or as the perfect companion to PS4."

The PS4 launch could be the breakthrough the handheld has been waiting for: the device has struggled to make too much of a dent in the market in its eighteen months prior.
