The Playstation 4

apparently. Probably isn't but some sort of news regarding next gen consoles must be coming in the not too distant future, surely?

That controller is the ugliest I've ever seen

The Flying Potato · 19th May 2010, 15:08

Not a chance of that being real.

PS4 mock up speculation #38278402.

Cue Weaste in 3, 2, 1....

Is an...interesting design.

What? You can't be serious, that couldn't look faker if they had used paint

In what way? It is an ambitious design, but it does look quite professionally done.

Donut · 19th May 2010, 15:17

That's ridiculous

JezChan · 19th May 2010, 15:17

Good idea by the person who made this, but no.

Decotron · 19th May 2010, 15:18

Looks like Steve Martin in the Invisible man

x42bn6 · 19th May 2010, 15:20

Not really that innovative, is it? You'd expect the PS4 to be capable of climbing mountains or making coffee or something, with octo-core quad Cell processors.

cold-zebra · 19th May 2010, 15:20

They forgot the start button.

Xander45 · 19th May 2010, 15:27

Just one thing, how would you fit all the processing power and fan onto a space the size of a blu-ray disc that looks about as thick as a donut?

Peasplease · 19th May 2010, 15:27

Looks great imo.

You're assuming you would need to. Cloud?

Paz · 19th May 2010, 15:47

What about the circuits (on the main machine aswell as the controllers) where do they go then?!

on the controller, I assume in the two black bits. I doubt there'd be much circuitry.

Hold on, why the fuck am I trying to solve the logistical issues with a clearly fake mock up.

Well, apart from the obvious there are little details that give it away, such as the use of the spiderman font.

Yeah, it's called Natal, Move, and WiiHD.

Adzzz · 19th May 2010, 18:38

In fairness the console looks amazing, the controller looks wank.

WeasteDevil · 19th May 2010, 20:08

Probably because it's not real, but rather a fiction spat out from the imagination of some design student.

Number7 · 19th May 2010, 20:20

So will the next gen of consoles use 3D technology?

I'm not too fused on the whole 'movement sensor' Wii and Project natal or whatever it's called.

WeasteDevil · 19th May 2010, 20:42

PS3 is getting a firmware update this year to do 3D (remember the prototype was supoosed to have 2 HDMI sockets?). HDMI 1.3 has the bandwidth to do it.

Nintendo's next handheld is 3D.

buckooo1978 · 19th May 2010, 20:55

In theory i wonder if the PS4 or new consoles be that size

havent google tried to promote computer systems where the user can log on remotely with all their files, programmes etc stored on google servers

if the consoles embraced ideas like these - where users download games to playstation servers - couldnt it be possible with the basic hardware requirements

it would make sense as it would probably seriously deter software pirates (ar-ar) or modding of consoles

or am i talking balls

WeasteDevil · 19th May 2010, 21:16

There probably will be a move towards the use of the "cloud", yes.

What surprises me more is that they have not farmed off the connection fees to the network and subsidised the hardware more, similar to how mobile phone companies do it. You sign a fixed access contract and get the hardware for free.

PS4 in any case IMO will be a PS3 with a larger Cell and a larger GPU with more memory and bandwidth, you simply double or triple the size of what is already there, and by the time comes around, the CPU and GPU of the PS3 will be 33% of the size it was when the PS3 was first launched.

XBox, I really wouldn't like to hazard a guess.

gambit28 · 19th May 2010, 21:22

I think its time for the new console thing to end for a few years, upgrades would be cheaper for the respective companies and for the consumer.

You mean the ability to upgrade the hardware, or do what the car manufacturers do with a trade-in option?

Mr Chutney · 20th May 2010, 15:28

Xbox 720?

It won't be called an Xbox 720 either.

They'll call it the Y-Box!

Biscuit1871 · 20th May 2010, 23:21

The Shit Box 950 is my betting on what it will be called.
