Amazing Playstation 4 Hands-on Set At Sony Store: PS4 Plus 110 Inch 4K TV

Take a look at the set-up of Playstation 4 hands-on at Sony Store for fans to try out their hands on this amazing next-gen console. The complete set-up features PS4 plus 110 4K TV.

M-M3874d ago

I don't even think that TV would fit anywhere in my house lol. Seeing a lot of positive reactions about the PS4, can't wait to try it myself.

FarEastOrient3874d ago

Can I get that combo on sale? ^_^

Eonjay3874d ago

And for the low low price of $24,999.99; you too can own this item... It might be cheaper to actually install a 110 inch screen and projector.

Battlefieldlover3874d ago

Nebraska Furniture mart has a 65 inch Sony 4K TV on sale for 4,999 and a 55 inch for 3,999. Give it a year and they will be even more affordable but $5,000 albeit expensive but affordable if you can save and have a decent job. I'll still wait for around the$2,000 range.

fghtrer3fb5erg3874d ago

Someone exaggerated on the tv size (not you), its 84 inches not 110.

kparks3874d ago

It would be a pain in the ass playing a fps on this tv.. I got a 60inch sony and its just too much screen to cover.. I think imma get a 42 panasonic plasma in My bedroom to play on i prefer playing games on a plasma anyway my sony is a LED... whats everyone else got??

torchic3874d ago (Edited 3874d ago )

that range around 40" is definitely the sweet spot for online FPS games. I've switched between bigger and smaller TVs but for FPSs I fully agree that large TVs don't work well. I only see large TVs working well for slow-paced 3rd person adventure/RPGs with big expansive worlds.

I currently play on a 40" Bravia LCD and it's not too much, not too little. like you said there's just too much ground for your eyes to cover on large TVs, especially in a twitch shooter like CoD where I think you'd ideally want a majority of the screen in the centre of your gaze and less in your peripheral vision.

Back-to-Back3874d ago

Get a 23" monitor if you enjoy playing fps. A monitor destroys a tv in terms of performance.

Aceman183874d ago

46" Panasonic plasma, awesome tv

bigtrucknd3874d ago

55" Panasonic plasma. Just sit further back and screen size is perfect. I say bigger is always better.

Forgive me, it's been a Law and Order: SVU morning. ;-)

pkb793874d ago

I finally got around to playing through killzone 3 the last couple of day on my 50 inch Plasma. Works great. Using the PS move gun and it so fast and easy to play. With the surround sound cranked its like I'm really there.

badz1493874d ago

1080p projector here. 84" is nothing!

irepbtown3874d ago

37'' LG, 1080p and 200hz.

LCD so it isn't the slimmest but it's good.

maddskull3874d ago

i am looking to get a tv but i dont know what should i get any recommendations

PersonMan3874d ago

I'm going to have to agree with Back-to-Back. Gaming on a PC monitor has many advantages. No input lag (TVs have picture enhancing processing built in and even game mode doesn't get rid of all the lag) and also, monitors can have very low pixel response time like 2ms (which means no ghosting on fast paced games).

I've got a Samsung XL2370 and it rocks. The backlight is even, there is no clouding, the response time is 2ms and there's no input lag.

kparks3874d ago

@mad i would look at a panasonic plasma i think there the best for games and movies and there much improved from years ago i dont think u can get anything better my sony led is a ok tv but i wish i had gotten the Panasonic

HighResHero3874d ago (Edited 3874d ago )

I played most of my PS3 games on a 55" Samsung, including shooters.
I've never had a problem,unless I got too close to it obviously.
Sitting the right distance from a TV, viewing from the right angle, being comfortable, etc. are crucial to me.
I do most of my PC gaming on laptops and definitely need one of those Powergrips for the Vita since I'm always fidgeting with it.

ThatOneGuyThere3874d ago

I rock a 100 inch 3D HD projector in my room. Screw TVs. hahaha Its impossible to go back. everything else just looks tiny, dull, and dumb. And to top it off, the setup was under 1,000$(including my 1000watt 5.1 system). :-D

ThatOneGuyThere3874d ago

@pkb79,

I played through all of KZ3 on my 100 inch projector in 3d with the move rifle. It was like i was in the holodeck. I was exhausted.

boneso823874d ago (Edited 3874d ago )

60" Samsung plasma! Way better picture quality and motion handling than an LCD. I have a 47" LCD in the bedroom which was my main living room TV until I upgraded, never looked back... The difference between the two sets when playing games running at 60fps is incredible, plasma all the way for next gen!

Ps, for the benefit of madskull, it's a ps60e6500, check out a few reviews online, highly recommended TV and amazing size and quality for the price. Only get a Panasonic if you don't mind insane amounts of image retention, I sent 2 Panasonic plasma s back before I got my sammy, no problems with image retention since day 1. Go big or go home I say...

zeroskie3874d ago

40" Samsung 1080p LED. Unsure about what kind of TVs are good for gaming, but this one works okay.

Boody-Bandit3873d ago (Edited 3873d ago )

maddskull

It depends on what size display you want. For gaming nothing beats a PC monitor for sheer performance but they have poor contrast ratio and most of them have meh color saturation.

You get a much overall better "punch in the gut" vibrancy and illumination from and LED. Plasmas usually are best for no motion judder. ALL of them have their trade offs.

Set a budget, determine the size you want, than find a few models to choose from. Write down the model numbers and than do a search "input lag - tv manufacturer model". There are a few sites that do true input lag measurements. Find a display in your budget with the least input lag. It's the single most important aspect for a gaming display. It could mean the difference between, WTF, I shot the guy / he had his freaking bad to me vs. Damn I'm mopping these b*tches up and it's not even my birthday.

OT
WTF with this article? This isn't 110 inch display. I wish they did have one. I am looking to retire my projector and 110 screen for an LED display. The biggest display I've seen so far in the U.S. is a 90" display. I'm going to make the jump as soon as 100" hits retail.

iiwii3873d ago (Edited 3873d ago )

Agreed. I had a 65" and it was great for playing single player campaign stuff, but going online, it just was not great at all. I downgraded to 60" to get 3D but still the same. It also seems to cause more eye fatigue after playing for awhile on the big screen.

When I game online, I move my PS3 to my 24" computer monitor with HDMI. It's like night and day difference from the big screen.

" I played Knack, it's pretty much just a hit square to attack them type of game, "

Really? I find this very interesting.

I wish you could enlarge this picture because the image on the TV screen looks to be displayed so wonderfully.

4K is mesmerizing.

Magicite3874d ago

110inch? Holy shi* and I thought my 60inch is huge :O

JackISbacK3874d ago

this tv is amzing man but it will cost very much i dont think there can be problems of hanging on the the wall ,but i will buy this and will play both xbox one and PS4 on this tv and will have good time and i will also conect this tv to my pc to play battlefield 4 and titanfall to play them on 4k which will look truly amzing ,oh god my pc can support 4k because is high end.

Syntax-Error3873d ago

Fuck all the bullshit stories about which console is better. Just look at the trending stories and you will see mixed statements across the board. All these articles are everyones fanboy opinions and propaganda. There's no consistency at all. One article stating that PS4 shows off the it's power to other next gen consoles and the other article stating that XBO is ahead of the pack. This leads me to understand that ALL of these articles are TRASH

'"The controller is awesome. It's without a doubt better than the Xbox 360 controller (I've always preferred the 360 controller over DS3)''

good to know that the non-fanboys/gals of x360 gamers are finding DS4 better

FamilyGuy3874d ago (Edited 3874d ago )

So, from the article, I'm guessing Sony reps are actually ENCOURAGING people to put their hand on the console to feel how cool its running. We keep seeing people do this recently in videos and this might be the reason why.

9 ft tv is a bit of an overkill, that's like having a movie theater in your living room though being 4k being put to good use here though lol.

That's what people used to say about a 17"CRT monitor being overkill back in the days...lol

ATi_Elite3874d ago

Bubbles + Helpful (like you need anymore lol)

I just commented on wanting this picture enlarge and BAM you delivered.

THX!

ThatOneGuyThere3874d ago

and whats wrong with having a theater in your house? I love mine...

JackISbacK3874d ago

no buudy you may can be finding it good personaly ,i respact that but for me xbox controller is the most prefferable by me ,ds4 is a huge improvement over ds3 but is known that xbox controller is very comfortable and feels best for fps games ,and that controller which can play fps the best it can aslo give good feeling in 3rd party games,sorry to say and feels bad that i read 3 days back in a review of ds4 that it is an amzing cotroller but not like xbox 360 controler ,i've experience both next gen controller and again find xbox one controler the best because in such a way that conroller sits on my hand was amzing and ds4 was also quite amzing ,i liked both of them but xbox one controleer the best personaly and i'am getting both consoles and both consoles are having amzing games ,i hope we will se more games on ps4 in future because for now there is shortage of big titles but i have believe in sony and this time around in terms of good exclusive xbopx one is giving them neck to neck battle but for now xbox is having more big titles than sony which are all fun .i will have good gaming on my both consoles.

hulk_bash19873874d ago

Haha, beat me to it. Wish I had the coin to have that kind of set up.

IMO, that TV in the picture doesn't look like 110". More like 84". A 110" TV almost looks like it's from floor to ceiling size. Something like this: http://www.bigpicturebigsou...

Sony CEO says although AI "has been used for creation," it's "not a substitute for human creativity"

"AI is not a substitute for human creativity. We position it as a technology that supports creativity. Creativity resides in people. We will continue to contribute to people's creativity through technology," the CEO said.

..Then Sony will use it like the drop of a hat. They're no different to the others.

isarai4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

They used to be 😞 sure it was always a business, and money's always the priority, but they used to have a very strong stance on supporting artists and creativity. "Dont f#@k with the artist" was a phrase they touted a few times back in the ps1-ps3 era, a philosophy carried over from their music branch PlayStation was created from. It's not COMPLETELY gone, but it's barely there compared to what it was back then, i just want them to return to that.

Eonjay4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

I am highly encouraged by their statement about human creativity. "Dont f#@k with the artist" is exactly what they are saying. But at the same time, I don't think people understand that Sony is a corporation. If they don't realize growth, they don't get to exist. When you say 'Sony', you are talking about a bunch of investors. To speak about them any other way is a illogical and incorrect. They haven't changed. They have been a group of investors since they became a public business.

isarai4d ago

Ugh, i really wish people would stop gambling people's livelihoods by turning a project/game into their political soapbox. Im all for statements and having your own opinion, but there's more people working on this than just druckman, ham fisting your political beliefs onto just seems inconsiderate for everyone elses job security when it can result in a failure due to people avoiding it for that reason.

I play games for escape, im so tired of nearly every AAA game blatantly dragging real world issues to shove in my face when I'm trying to take a break from it all. They don't even bother to be subtle about it, quite the opposite, it's blasted and force fed to you and it's just getting exhausting

Einhander19724d ago

People are taking a whole interview and cutting it down to clips that make him look bad and take what he actually was saying out of context. For example he also said things like this AI has "ethical issues we need to address"

-Foxtrot4d ago

@Einhander

Why defend him at this point?

It’s not taking things out of context, he said what he said.

Old ND would never talk about soulless AI taking over so many creative things they are well known for. The whole “ethical issues” is just a good PR spin people who push this crap fall back on to make their statements not seem as bad. So many AI lovers do this.

AI has no place is so many creative based things.

Einhander19724d ago

Well yeah, because everyone else is using it so they need to stay competitive. It's the same as paid online, they didn't want to go that route but their competition was making so much money they needed to add paid online just to keep up.

RaiderNation4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

AI will never replace humans in game development in terms of conceptualizing new games. Humans still need to come up with the ideas and what they want to implement. However much of the day to day menial coding could be AI driven to reduce production time and team size. I could also see AI being used for bug testing/optimization that could lead to better quality games at launch. I'm actually very optimistic about how AI can positively impact game development.

Good statement but hopefully this holds up

NotoriousWhiz4d ago

People that aren't software developers just don't understand the benefits of AI. People who's only exposure to A.I is the Terminator movie and other related sci fi films won't understand the benefits it provides.

It's not about replacing human labor. It's about making human labor easier.

Many years ago, I had laser eye surgery done. It was performed by a robot. The doctor took my measurements and calibrated the machine to make sure it would do what needed be done. And then the robot corrected my vision in 10 seconds.

15 years later and I still have 20/20 vision.

Eonjay4d ago

AI in and of itself is not a 'bad'. Money is bad. Money is evil, and corporations will do whatever they can to get more of it. They will find ways to implement AI to replace as may jobs as possible. This isn't even up for debate. It is the charge of the corporation to maximize returns for the investors. They have no choice. I'm a developer and I know that my job will absolutely be replaced. Therefore, I have decided to become an AI dev. AI has a lot of potential to help us solve problem on a scale most can't even imagine. The issue, as ever is that our monetary system only ever allows us to focus on greed and fiscal growth.

But I am a pragmatist. Perhaps an AI model can be built to help protect us from our most dangerous instincts and habits. And perhaps Congress can pass laws to protect us from people who would use AI to manipulate and control us (spoiler: they wont).

RaiderNation3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Progress is inevitable. Nobody driving cars today is complaining that the horse and buggy is no longer around. Yes, some jobs will be lost but guess what? With innovation comes new job opportunities. It's how the cycle of the job market works.

Sony Patents To Prevent You From In-Game Harassment By Reading Your Emotions

A new patent recently published by Sony wants to gather biometric data of gamers to track whether one is being harassed using AI tools.

Profchaos33d ago (Edited 33d ago )

I hope this is one of those patents that never comes to fruition.

I already dislike the fact you can pay a significant amount for a online service buy associated games and content on said service and get banned from that service over potentially a misunderstanding the bans are already handed out for flimsy reasons

I'd rather see money invested in a ban that simply removes the offensive players ability to communicate with unknown players allow them to continue party chats with friends but not with Joe blow on cod.

exputers33d ago

Agreed. Blizzard recently banned a college Overwatch 2 player who's dependent for saying "shit." Pretty harsh.

Profchaos32d ago (Edited 32d ago )

How rediculas really. You can't say a word that's allowed in most PG films and prime time TV but the game is based around killing the enemy team using guns, explosives etc.

It's just backwards.

just_looken32d ago

What your talking about is called block list

In 2006 a spaceship dropped of the playstation 3/xbox 360 i say that that generation was the last great gen with game functions/tech that has yet to comeback

Anyhow the playstation 3 if you block listed a id they could not talk to you in chatroom with either text or voice. But that was pre mind fucked 2018 when people were more human than sheep.

But hey gta 6 is coming out billion dollar budget without a single player custom character creator and without singeplayer coop off/online something saints row 1-3 had on the xbox 360.

At this rate I feel Sony will eventually sell a room to play games in it where they can monitor your every breath

jambola32d ago

I genuinely get a bit worried sometimes when a friend says something that could be offensive In a party
Because I have no trouble believing some bans would happen when in a private party for saying something wrong

SegaSaturn66933d ago

I want them to censor erotic content by measuring my groin temperature so i dont get too distracted while playing black ops 2.

Popsicle33d ago

Terrible idea. Not only do I not consent to providing my biometric data, the potential for mishandling biometric data is almost a certainty. Positive stress and negative stress can produce similar changes in biometrics. Interpreting the precise emotion a person is feeling is not only invasive but could be easily misconstrued. I hope this never comes to fruition.

Sony Could Increase Your Game's Difficulty If It Sees You Complain About It

Sony has recently published a new patent that wants to dynamically handle the games' difficulty and gameplay based on the player's emotions.

jznrpg33d ago

This is something I might use. Sometimes I play some good games but they don’t have difficulty option and are a little too easy.

cool idea for horror games especially
