We're a couple days late to the party on this one, but guys, it looks quite likely that Sony's upcoming Dual Shock 4 controllers for the PlayStation 4, could be compatible with Windows, potentially letting you use the touchpad as a mouse – making this a very attractive proposition for …

Despite all the hate for Microsoft's next-gen system, I'm sure there's a few of you who are interested in its boxy corners, the persistent eye of the Kinect camera and its unswappable hard drive. Likewise Sony fans must be eagerly rubbing their hands together, waiting for that day in November …

Amazon France has let loose the details on two launch day bundles for the PlayStation 4, packing either Killzone Shadow fall with the console and optional PS4 camera or a cheaper bundle that will come complete with a next-gen copy of Ubisoft's hacking sandbox, Watch Dogs. These bundles are currently …

While all the ins and outs of the next-generation of consoles have yet to be finalised, this hasn't stopped one investment firm speculating about how profitable it could be. While Sony famously didn't charge a thing for its PS3 online service, it will be on the PS4 and that should …

It seems that British toy store – Toys R Us – may have leaked the release dates for Sony's and Microsoft's next-generation consoles. According to individual product pages found on the Toy R Us website, the Xbox One is set to be released on 29th November 2013, with the PS4 …

Sony has announced that it is going to have to cut back on pre-order promises to supply its next-generation console on launch day, as apparently the numbers are just getting too lofty to deal with. However, that doesn't mean pre-orders made today, or tomorrow won't be fulfilled as you might …

We've known for a while now that the PS4 would come packing a hell of a lot more RAM than its predecessor. While the PS3 had 512Mb (256MB system and 256MB GPU memory) the PS4 is coming as standard with a full 8GB. However, it's not been clear how much …

With all that focus on the Xbox One's connectivity and features recently, it's not surprising that Sony is playing a bit of “look-at-me,” right now. However, this newly announced feature should capture gamers' imaginations, since it's one of the ones that Microsoft initially promised but then withdrew – playing your …

Sony has updated both its Facebook and Twitter accounts, with the image below and text that reads, “When World's Collide.” Much speculation and guessing has taken place in the hours since its release, but what do you guys think? Some have pointed to a similar looking image in the PS3 …

While we might all be aware of Microsoft's efforts to take over the living room viewing experience and Apple's plans are all too obvious with the AppleTV, no one quite expected Sony to be doing something similar – or at least that's how it appears, since the Japanese firm just registered …

Watchdogs, the upcoming next-gen console and PC title from Ubisoft, is all about moving around in and manipulating a heavily interconnected world of smartphones, cameras and local networks – all ripe for the invading. To show how non-fictional that upcoming reality is, Ubisoft has now launched the WeAreData website and …

Sony might have detailed what we'll likely find in the PS4 box when it's released, but we've yet to get an official confirmation through something as hard hitting as a picture; until now. Snagged from an Amazon product listing, the following picture has the whole family of cables and accessories …

There's been a lot of talk recently about used games, about loaning games, renting games, borrowing games, trading games – the whole second hand game market has been up for scrutiny. You've had Microsoft looking to kill it then backpedaling, you've had developers discussing aggressive GameStop tactics, reams and reams …

While Microsoft and Sony have both publicly stated that their respective consoles would be available worldwide during the Christmas period this year, retailers have begun putting up release dates for both systems, suggesting something a little more concrete. German website Media Markt has listed the PS4 for a 13th November …

If you're a PC gamer, chances are the majority of your games aren't installed from the disc anymore. Maybe you use Steam, maybe you use GoG, or MAME or play a standalone, downloadable game like League of Legends; whatever your choice though, there likely isn't a stack of game boxes …

While the world and his dog is attacking Microsoft for its stance on used games and Sony is being a little coy about third party publishers potentially blocking the sale of them, Nintendo has another idea about how to restrict used sales: make better games. This was said by Nintendo …

While Nvidia has always been “about the PC” in some way or another, it put a lot of time and effort into the current, fading console generation as well, since it was reliving its war with ATI (now AMD) in the battle between the Xbox 360 and PS3. While its …

While Sony might be riding on a wave of good publicity from its announcements at E3, Twitter has also been abuzz from comments made by the president of Sony Worldwide Studios, Shuhei Yoshida, who said that the console would be region free. It was a simple tweet, but those are …

We talked about it since the original reveal of PS4 features and games, we carried on talking about it when Microsoft showed us the Xbox One and we've been talking about it off and on until yesterday: which would come out on top at E3, the Xbox One or the …

Even though Microsoft has been hammered with bad press for its Xbox One console over the past few weeks, it's still managing to beat out the much more favourably viewed PlayStation 4 in pre-orders, according to a new report from Amazon.co.uk. First there was the fact that Microsoft just loved …

While we don't have any concrete pricing information on the next-gen consoles from Microsoft or Sony just yet, that doesn't mean speculation isn't abound. One analyst, by the name of Michael Pachter, has given a talk to investors in an E3 preview show and he thinks he's got a handle …

It's been a long time since games consoles were solely about playing games. Since they started adding CD playing functions, consoles have been more than just a tool for gunning down digital enemies, but you'd have been forgiven with the recent Xbox One reveal for thinking that nobody uses them …

Remember that PS4 teaser video we put up yesterday? It didn't really show us much of what the PS4 looks like, other than its black and has grills. Difficult to put much more of a picture together than that, but one Redditor has, mocking up what the PS4 could look …

The PS4, as we all expected, will be making its big debut at E3 this year. Microsoft is of course jumping the gun and getting in its next-Xbox unveiling tomorrow, so just to remind you that Sony is waiting in the wings, it's released a teaser video that shows blurry …

Sony has had some famous taglines for its consoles over the years, often with several significant ones landing with each generation. Often though there's one that sticks in your memory a little more. With the PS One it was “Do not underestimate the power of PlayStation,” while the PS2 had …

One of the biggest features showcased by Sony during its PS4 unveiling earlier this year, was the share button. It's on the controllers themselves and lets you instantly share footage of your gameplay with the world. This could be pre-recorded action, live let's-plays, or just a simple linkup with friends …

According to Sony's worldwide studios vice president Michael Denny, the company learned plenty from its launch of the PS3 and its pricing, which would suggest that the PlayStation 4 will debut with a far more acceptable price point than that of its predecessor. When it was released in the UK, …

You'll need to shell out £20 for the privilege of reserving what at the moment must be the most anticipated of the next-gen consoles, the PS4, with Asda expecting it to be available to pick up some time within 2013. Despite this release date suggestion however, Asda has noted that this is …

Sony might not have had a strong few years recently, with a severe drop off in its dominance of the TV and hardware market in general, but just recently it's started doing a bit better, with strong Xperiz Z sales and a good initial showing of PS4 features prompting debt agency Daiwa …
