"That blue light on the PS4 “changes colors.” We’ll have to wait and see how many colors it can change to."

Hope it has as many as my Razer Naga Epic mouse. Allthough the blue LED goes with the leds in my pc.

GarrusVakarian3813d ago (Edited 3813d ago )

One of those quotes will hush the people who have been claiming the PS4 is prone to overheating. Like it was ever an issue......you put anything in a glass/plastic case with no ventilation, its going to get hot (you don't say!). But i guess people need something negative about the PS4 to cling to.

*Looking at you Mr x media and your "insider"* I read something on that idiots blog that the PS4 needs special cooling in the summer and that it shuts down every 30 seconds due to overheating, LOL!

majiebeast3813d ago

Electronics tend to overheat in small spaces im shocked by that news actually...

Kayant3813d ago (Edited 3813d ago )

inb4 well what else is he supposed to say....

Both consoles will be fine as long as they are kept in a well ventilated place. Only stupid people will have overheating issues. Both seem to be well designed to prevent overheating based on what we have been told and seen so far.

Enemy3813d ago

That rumor was made up by MisterX. It never had any substance.

Irishguy953813d ago

The Ps4 and X1 have the same heating issues...
ie:
Put them in a little box and they may overheat

Eonjay3813d ago

In a shocking revelation it was revealed that Shu only has a trophy level of 13; preorder cancelled lol

Ju3813d ago

That MisterX guys is an I..ot. He seriously cited an "insider" saying the "dgpu" thing is real, and MS can scale the GPU to 3TF. Just days ago or something. He's is seriously deluded. But he doesn't give up. That's probably a symptom.

EXVirtual3813d ago

Well, MisterXmedia is a conspiracy theorist as well as an Xbox fanboy.
It's very simple. If you set the PS4 in a place with no breathing space, it's not gonna hold up. Same goes for the XBP.
Speaking of him check out his new blog post:
http://misterxmedia.livejou...
BS alert!
He loves spreading crap.

ShinMaster3813d ago

@ EXVirtual

Oh my god... I clicked that link. Some Xbox fanboys are so sad and desperate. The amount of BS was unreal.

dodo1013813d ago

Not only that they are downplaying ps4.
The "insider" also claims that the xboxone is 2.6TF! LMAO!

GarrusVakarian3813d ago

@dodo101

The numbers always change, not long ago they were saying that the X1 is on par with a GTX titan LOL.

Stuart813813d ago

I never listen to a thing MisterXMedia says, and I'm getting an x1 at launch. The PS4 is very impressive and I will be adding one to my console collection sometime in 2014

hello123813d ago (Edited 3813d ago )

It doesn't actually, he's hardly going to tell you the truth, if the PS4 is prone to overheating. You'll have to find that out for yourself.

Lot of insiders have claimed the PS4 is prone to overheating, so again, only when the console is out will people find out.

I'm just curious, as to why there has been no videos of the Sony UI yet been used by a user?

ShwankyShpanky3813d ago

I did a little Googling the other day and in 2011 MisterXMedia's "insider" was saying that the Wii U would have a built-in projector. Dude is a farce.

SniperControl3813d ago (Edited 3813d ago )

@knws

"Lot of insiders have claimed the PS4 is prone to overheating, so again, only when the console is out will people find out"

What insiders, point me to the source material?

Stop talking out of your ass and stop reading the crap that comes outta Mr xmoron's mouth.

I have seen plenty vids of Sony's Ul, shouldn't you be asking that of the x1.

OT: Yoshida-San is a legend, a lot of execs can learn alot from this guy.

johndoe112113813d ago

I strongly urge you to refrain from visiting the misterxmedia site. I visited there a few days ago and left with a severe case of herpes.

O.T. This overheating issue should never have been an issue in the first place. I honestly think that everyone who is making it an issue knows very well that it's a non issue but hey, they need some sort of ammo against the ps4 right?

Kane223813d ago

omg i couldn't even stay on that site anymore. that whole site was nothing but BS crap against Sony and the PS4. and i cant get over how people believe his crap lol

fenome3813d ago

@KNWS

Well, he's not a liar, so yes we do actually tend to believe him. See how that works?

He doesn't intentionally try to twist the truth or keep us in the dark about anything.

TheXgamerLive3813d ago

Actually the ps4 has a much much greater chance at over heating.
Here's why.
It was designed for cooling 4 gigs of gddr5 and not 8, fhen wben upped last minute , well that increased heating by almost 100%.

I thinks its an issue tbey will soon fix though.

fenome3813d ago

Oh, cool, thanks @XGamer for the "inside" info. You're VERY well informed, what would we do without your firsthand knowledge on the console /s

If you were stuck in something like this while blowing your hot air I bet you would overheat too

how often do you get this kind of direct customer service? He is always on top of everything.

BABY-JEDI3813d ago

This guy is so going to get a Christmas bonus.
; )

GentlemenRUs3813d ago (Edited 3813d ago )

How can you if you already are the President of Sony's Worldwide Studios?

Mind = Blown

FamilyGuy3813d ago

Kaz is above him, he could give out the bonus.

monkey6023813d ago

All the more reason to respect him. He is down to earth and involved fully. He hasn't got an attitude like "I pay people to deal with this stuff"

BABY-JEDI3813d ago

Santa Claus loves this guy. I'm sure he's on the good boy list
LoL

Bundi3813d ago

Sony can't afford such things.

Silly gameAr3813d ago

Last I checked they were still worth billions. How about you there Bundi?

Bundi3813d ago

the last time I checked they were losing said billions on a yearly basis

Gridloc3813d ago

So does PS4 have voice commands without the PS camera? It looks like it too me, but I could be reading into it too much. Anyone?

Kayant3813d ago (Edited 3813d ago )

Indeed you are right ;) Works with any mic from the DS4.

Check FAQ for more details.

Gridloc3813d ago

Thanks for the info...

farhad2k83813d ago

So it comes with Kinect features, without a Kinect? Sweet.

LittleBigPlanet 3 Servers Are Officially Shut Down 'Indefinitely,' Sony Confirms

Sony has confirmed that LittleBigPlanet 3 servers on PlayStation 4 will remain offline “indefinitely” following troubles with the service from earlier this year.

rlow16h ago

Sad day, hopefully they’ll allow a third party server solution. Goes to show game preservation is an uphill battle.

Fieyy6h ago

First the Helldivers launch and then this

Sony still can’t run online services/games.

-Foxtrot6h ago

Do you not get tired creating duplicate accounts...

It's super sad at this point

Knightofelemia3h ago

Last time I remember Helldivers is doing great with players both PC and Playstation.

Fieyy3h ago

And how was it at launch? A disaster for weeks.

arkard2h ago

How was that Sonys fault?

Fieyy1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

Is Sony not the publisher?

jjb19812h ago(Edited 1h ago)

It's crazy that you keep making accounts just to be a troll. You went through the trouble of making it just to try to stir the fanboy pot. 🤡 activities.

Fieyy1h ago

Still got your attention though huh ;)

just_looken1h ago

What needs to be highlighted by this is that the series has had 4 main games then that go kart spin off yet sony let them all die.

There is 0 games like this on ps5 and to my knowledge 0 first party main kids games no tech demo crap

Sony purchased Media Molecule studio the ip then tossed it away letting it rot for over 7 years yet the community carried on until now were we have lost 16 years on all games of content along with no replacement.

Everyone goes on about ea killing studios but sony has killed way way more but its fine its sony they can do no wrong.

Before the sony blidboys track me down again go fire up your holy boxes all the dlc they tossed out all the trophies and all the user content needs a server side handshake that no longer works. Yes offline single player version 1.0 works but that is it.

Media Molecule was not cut i know but they only made LBP and dreams it was reported they just missed the chopping block
https://gamerant.com/little...

Do not forget the dreams game was tossed out 2020 but 3 years later support was pulled
https://www.digitaltrends.c...

All in all this is another failure at sony on a long long list in the past 10 years

Inverno33m ago

It's kind of hard to disagree when SONY has a history of abandoning many of their IPs. They killed Mod Nation and turnt it into LBP Karting because of brand recognition but left it to die too. They made their own Smash Bros only to rush the studio, and turn the game into an advert for recent release at the time and still let it die. They shut down PS Home for more or less the same reason, they left it to rott till it became too broken and exploited to bother fixing.

Tacoboto1h ago

I feel bad for Media Molecule. For the ideas they have it seems they need a publisher that supports games like this and Dreams especially for as many players as possible.
