    I doubt it. We may get a look at some titles, although more than likely it will be tech demos showing off the features. The majority of the games will be held until E3.

    do yous think we will get a look at what it actually looks like?

    I definitely think we will see the new controller - I am less certain about the console itself but it is likely.

    Yeah, I'd say launch titles will be revealed at E3. But we may get 1 or 2 at this. Maybe an exclusive they really want to push.

    So won't have someone on stage with console and controller in their hands, raising them Lion King style?

    I was gonna give Last Guardian as an example but then remembered that was a game used to try and push PS3 and may yet be used to try and sell PS5.

    And that's the exact kind of image I was thinking of. I remember him doing it and think someone else did it with console in one hand and controller in the other. Of course think only Nintendo can manage that, unless they get someone strong with big hands

    We'll have Watch Dogs, Star Wars 1313, The Last Guardian, a new Naughty Dog title and likely some studio support announced on Wednesday (no surprises there, the usual suspects). I don't think we'll get a launch date though

    My guess:

    Nothing from Naughty Dog (They won't show anything until The Last of Us has been released)
    New IP from Guerilla Games
    Evolution Studios with a new IP, possibly Gran Turismo related.
    Phantom Pain (I.e MGS5)
    Battlefield 4
    Watchdogs
    New IP from Media Molecule

    i'd like to see a technical demo of FFVII again on PS4, and confirmation of a remake of FF VII-IX. :):rolleyes:

    If only!!

    I cant wait for the reveal, really want to find out the spec's, hardware, new IP games and vita integration with the new console.

    Really??

    I don't remember my old PS1 with indentations at all, I've got it floating around the attic somewhere :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 346 ✭✭dorkacle


    Not mine pictured, but my PS1 Dual Shock defo didn't have the indentations.

    EDIT: And the 'arms' on the one you pictured seem very elongated???

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,054 ✭✭✭✭Professey Chin


    The dual shock didnt but the analog did. Was released before the dual shock but was relatively low key


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,139 ✭✭✭Red Crow


    That PS4 pad one is obviously an early model with no product design gone into it. I suppose the pad is purely for techincal purposes rather than being the final model. I don't think they'll change it up too much.

    Me either. Id say itll just be tidied up like the pad being better integrated with the overall design. No idea about the light though. Looks very move controllerish

    I'm kinda hoping they copy the Xbox with regards to the positioning of the analog sticks, but I know that's not going to happen :(

    Am I the only one who prefers the standard PS2/PS3 controller to the XBox one? Everything about it is more comfortable.

    Nope I prefer it too. I dunno what it is about the xbox one but I always feel weird using it

    Thankfully so, I hate the right stick being higher.

    I wonder if we'll still be able to use a Six-axis or Dualshock 3, for the odd co-op when you're stuck.
