In India, PlayStation 4 (PS4) is all set for its official launch in mid December. Snapdeal has listed PS4 for pre-order with a price tag of Rs 40,000 ($632) and release date of December. For PS4 official price in India, Sony had decided to wait for sometime, because of the volatile Rupee. In all probability its Indian price will be in the range from Rs 35,000- Rs 38,000. At present, PS4 console is budlled with 20 first and third party games. As per Sony, by India launch in mid December, or by year end, console will have over 30 games .
Leaving behind the complexities of earlier PlayStation 3 architecture, present PlayStation 4 features a simpler but 10 times more powerful AMD processor which employs Single-chip, custom design 8 cores CPU "Jaguar", with next-generation Radeon™ based graphics engine. New adoptataion in processor, is likely to create a larger pool of game developers and support system. In PS4, with "share" button on the new wireless controller and live streeming of in-game play video from friends, emphasis is clearly on social gamming.
Sony started its development programme on eighth-generation video game console way back in 2008. After months of delays due to production issues, when PlayStation 3 was finally launched around two years back, the sale of Microsoft's Xbox 360 was already approaching 10 million units and PS3 found it self late by one year in the sale game. This time Sony was better positioned to avoid repeating the same mistake with PS3's successor
The Most Powerful System
There has never been a games system as advanced as PlayStation 4. Stunning graphics performance, unparalleled customised memory and processors with 10 times the power of PlayStation 3 have given the most innovative minds in the games industry free rein when it comes to creating experiences that are bigger, bolder, more immersive. And more than you ever imagined.
Power To Perform
The PlayStation 4 system was designed from the ground up to ensure that game creators can unleash their imaginations to develop the very best games and deliver new play experiences never before possible. With ultra-fast customized processors and 8GB of high-performance unified system memory, the PS4 system is the home to games with rich, high-fidelity graphics and deeply immersive experiences that shatter expectations.
Personalized, Curated Content
The PS4 system has the ability to learn about your preferences. It will learn your likes and dislikes, allowing you to discover content pre-loaded and ready to go on your console in your favorite game genres or by your favorite creators. Players also can look over game-related information shared by friends, view friends’ gameplay with ease, or obtain information about recommended content, including games, TV shows and movies.
Play as You Download
Increase your play time with the ability to play games while they’re downloading titles. When a player purchases a game that is enabled with this feature, the PS4 system downloads a portion of the game, so play can start, while the rest is downloaded in the background during actual gameplay.
Remote Play
Remote Play on the PS4 system fully unlocks the PlayStation Vita system’s potential, making it the ultimate companion device. With the PS Vita system, gamers will be able to play a range of PS4 titles on the beautiful 5-inch display over Wi- Fi access points in a local area network.
The “PlayStation App” will enable iPhone, iPad, and Android™ based smartphones and tablets to become second screens for the PS4 system. Once installed on these devices, players can view in game items, purchase PS4 games and download them directly to the console at home, or remotely watch the gameplay of other gamers playing on their devices.
DUALSHOCK 4 Complete Control
