Gamers react to the PS4 after first hands on at Gamescom

Gamers got their first hands on with the PS4 at Gamescom. Here's what they have to say.

[THE-COMMANDER]

I want my PS4 Now!

[pedrof93]

Significantly more small,powerful and cheaper than Xbox One.

Oh and also better looking.

[Perjoss]

Impressive how they managed to make it smaller than xb180 and still not require a power brick.

[abzdine]

no power brick and Sony's massive exclusives (TLOU 2, Uncharted 4, God of War, GT...) haven't been announced yet!!
Add Gaikai to that!

Greatness awaits

[HammadTheBeast]

Please, no flame wars here. I'm getting tired of them now.

[hazardman]

@ Hammad

Its already to late dude. Also now that im on more im starting to see its always same few spewing the hate and getting others riled up! Its like we're in that supermarket in The Mist!

[xDHAV0K24x]

Getting an Ouya as well?

[xDHAV0K24x]

Thats not a fact kid.

[pedrof93]

What's not fact ?

[Ritsujun]

lol DuckVok's mad.

[Boody-Bandit]

November will be here before you know it.
Right now I'm chill but I'm sure the anticipation will start to get intense when the months turn to weeks. It will get extreme when those weeks turn into days. I will probably pick mine up at midnight and game all night long once I get home. Who needs sleep?

[vigilante_man]

Your neighbours!!

[nosferatuzodd]

lol real talk

[ArchangelMike]

Is it not November already... man I'm more excited for the PS4 launch than I am for Christmas. Nov 29th can't come soon enough... damn you Americans you get everything first ;)

[hazardman]

Haha...

[pixelsword]

They hate us because of our game freedoms.

;)

[Flutterby]

I can't wait to get my ps4

[Flutterby]

I am really looking forward to midnight launch I have the ps4 and 4 games paid for ready to go. My local games shop now has a sign about specs and which console is better.

[nukeitall]

A Sony video telling you have awesome PS4 is... I wonder if it is biased?

[davidj88]

Yea i mean it's not like MS are getting someone like...oh i dunno....Major Nelson to do the majority of XboxOne videos that are coming out....oh that's right, they are.

At least this video shows the general public giving the PS4 praise and not just an MS employee.

[Hicken]

A nukeitall comment in a PS4 article... I wonder if it's trolling?

[G20WLY]

Proof reading is your friend. :P

On topic, if you don't like the source and/or subject of a video, don't watch it. Easy.

Also, regardless of any potential bias, the PS4 IS awesome and the world agrees - press and punters alike. But thanks for your comment anyway. :)

[Outside_ofthe_Box]

@nukei

Comments like that expose you for the "biased fangirl" that you are tbh.

[DragonKnight]

It's not biased, it's edited. It's also filled with real testimonials as opposed to Big Green's hype man Major Nelson. Because he's totally objective about the Xbox One.

[Jazz4108]

This is complete damage control from the article claiming no ps4s have been used in the wild only dev kits and pcs. This article breaks n4g rules as its a repeat article and its made by sony on the sony you tube channel. This is very biased and does nothing to disprove what ign is reporting.

[nades_all_night]

You know what disproves what IGN is reporting?... http://n4g.com/news/1342384... ...How about from the Horses mouth?

[DragonKnight]

@Jazz: Do your tears taste salty? I've never seen someone try so hard to remove an article because it was pro-Sony, or anything really. Wow.

[pixelsword]

pee doubleya oh in tee.

[Deadpoolio]

Oh god I feel you on that one Nov 15th seems so far away...

[Psn800]

I got a go at Fifa 14 on the Ps4 it was excellent at gamescom though the queues were huge though but worth it .

[threefootwang]

You know I was just reading yesterday in another N4G article how Xbox fanboys were criticising PS fans for constantly trolling in X1 articles and that Xbox fans NEVER do this in PS articles.

Oh the irony, lol.

[assdan]

At the first 30 seconds I was thinking "WOW! They're even break dancing after they use it!"

[ZHZ90]

PS4TW!

[nosferatuzodd]

Ps4 allday every day

[Truth]

One bed, one pillow... You ever been night night n***a, everybody goes night night n***a! ( sorry had to throw a Kevin Hart reference in there )

[DEEBO]

now that's funny

[AceBlazer13]

Huuuuuuuuuh *claps randomly*

[nosferatuzodd]

lol

[dcj0524]

Pfffft I don't need to call in sick. I'll just at lunch at school use remote play to play BF4. WHO'S LAUGHING ABOUT HAVING A VITA NOW JOHN!!! *laughs hysterically*

[WeAreLegion]

Yeah! Screw you, John!

[threefootwang]

I don't know who this John is, but you can tell him that a "threefootwang" thinks he's an asshole! Lol

[TesMgsFan]

Dat Hat !!! I want it !!

[naBs]

Dem Glasses I want xD

[Agent_hitman]

Another points for PS4

[DiRtY]

What did you expect from the official Playstation channel?

"Seriously, the controller did not feel well in my hands and the indie-only games they announced were disappointing for all of us"

Not gonna happen.

Waiting for a Xbox One / Wii U commercial and call it a win for MS / Nintendo.

[ZHZ90]

Can't you troll harder than that huh dirty?

Why am I seeing lots of exclusive support for PS3 while MS drop exclusive support for X360 and moved games that were suppossed to be X360 exclusive to X1 like Ryse and DR3?

You see that is why we have faith in Sony.

And we'll not only have Indies, F2P and multiplats but also exclusives support from Sony, Indies and 3rd Parties especially Sony has 30 games in developemnt and 20 of them will be released at PS4's 1st year and only 5-6 of those 20 are announced. While MS just 15 games and about half of them announced.

Just quit trolling and lies, it's over.

[gaelic_laoch]

tut tut Dirty, tut tut! Seems like with all your ignores and comments like this you have already been outed as a xbone fanboy and a troll yourself!

Time to add another digit to your ignore count I reckon!

[Kayant]

This notion of just indie games is kinda stupid.... Seeing as at launch XB1 has only one more exclusive then PS4 and more games have been announced in development for PS4 then XB1.

15 vs. 20 in the first year

Ryse
Forza 5
DR3
Killer Instinct

Vs.

Driveclub
Killzone: Shadow Fall
Knack

All it's showing is that Sony has been embracing the indie community with open arms which has resulted in massive support and are supporting all the types of indie policies (F2P, P2W etc).

Add to that the point made by ZHZ90 where PS3 is still getting massive support while XB360 is getting very little to none.

[KwietStorm_BLM]

Always gonna be that one guy.

[Death]

Hey ZHZ90,

Tonight when you say your prayers to Sony, can you request some of that overwhelming support be passed on to the Vita. Not trolling, just saying I would like some Vita specific games to actually play on my Vita instead of the shovelware/ports that we still have.

[scott182]

They chose to display how great their support for indie games was at this event... Their love for indie games and devs doesn't take away from their great AAA games and devs. Good for Sony, keep rolling.

[Shane Kim]

PS4 all day errr day! (Like Chief Keef would say).

[JayMurks]

Bang Bang

[iGamerZero24]

I'm off that day and all weekend to go with it !

[boing1]

Superior!

[fOrlOnhOpe57]

PS4 obviously passed the wind tunnel testing. Built-in ground-effect lol

[CPTN MITCHELL]

@Xbots fans u guys keep on with that no game song at least we know when the ps4 is coming out!!!

[LoveOfTheGame]

That is as stupid as making fun of Sony fans when they didn't know what their console looked like.

[Death]

Well, "2013" is already etched into the controllers, so I'm guessing it will release between now and December 31st.

[JayMurks]

PS4 pre-ordered. Can't wait to get my hands on it.

[ElementX]

My PS4 will look great next to my Xbox One!

[WeAreLegion]

Did they add a compartment in the Xbox One to fit a PS4? I thought I heard that from someone.

[dcj0524]

That would be pretty funny. ONE UI over the PS4.XBOX PLAY KILLZONE SHADOWFALL MULTIPLAYER.

[GiantEnemyCrab]

Nah, but maybe you can plug the PS4 into the HDMI In of the One and merge them into a super console!

[Deadpoolio]

I'll go ahead and consider getting a One80 when I know for sure that there isn't going to be another 55% failure rate repeat and that the DRM isn't coming back

[ElementX]

DRM coming back would be suicide. I can't believe people actually think MS would reverse that. They may bring back some DRM features such as sharing to digital content but not disc based games.

[cyclindk]

Wonder what they used to clean up all the nerdgasm juices from the carpet?

I use Great Value carpet foam... works on cat puke too

[WeAreLegion]

I'm a janitor. I can confirm this.

[Hicken]

I'm on the internet. I can verify this confirmation.

[WeAreLegion]

I like the video, but did they have to interview every creepy person they could find?

[Heartnet]

Ofc... I mean one guy said Affordable as a point....

yeh thats what i take away after playing a ps4 at gamescom.. affordable.... not the games themselves, no, the representatives told em the price and he has come away with ... Affordable... wow

[cyclindk]

Though.... if you put in these terms... "this Lamborghini is affordable," it would be a rather striking statement considering there are, from my perspective, no such things as affordable Lamborghinis, thus his statement was meant to reflect the inherent overall amazing value that is the PS4.

A Lambo for the price of a __insert cheap car reference here__.

[Heartnet]

but a lambo is affortable to soem people so the statment by itself means nothing.. and it wasnt even the word.. it was that he said it at gamescom... after playing games... he could think of nothing else than affordable...

[Aeronishun]

$400 is too much for a system that uses graphics as its biggest selling point.
Maybe I'll get one in a year when there's a price drop and a bigger selection of single-player titles.

[Kingnichendrix]

Well some people don't have copious amounts of money

[cyclindk]

You... just... blew... my... mind

It's so clear now man, this "money" thing, and wealth is all an illusion and relative at the same time. A cage to keep the masses addicted to a system of the transference of meaningless "things" back and forth in a futile effort to achieve some level of self aggrandizing meaning to their existence.

[KontryBoy706]

I'm ready!

[JackOfAllBlades]

My Body Is Ready!!

[KontryBoy706]

lol

[JackOfAllBlades]

I wish I had some hands on time with a PS4...

[Heartnet]

Go play your ps3... Literally the same

[AceBlazer13]

Lol funny how the Xbox one has become so much like the ps4 since e3 or is it the ps3 in your case? Either way it's an improvement.

[Death]

Yes, the XboxOne has Kinect (horrible name), a free game in some regions and a paid online service to create a more robust gaming experience just like the PS4 now.

Seriously though, thank god they embraced indy gaming so we can play Cut the Rope and Angry Birds: Star Wars 2 on our new gaming consoles. I just couldn't get enough on my phone and had to bring the experience to my living room. Yay.

[Heartnet]

Did i mention the xbox at all in that sentence :S

stated a fact purely on Ps3/43 and all replies are all about the Xbox.. :S

wierd

[Klad]

People need to stop with this superior specs talk. because at the end of the day it will ALWAYS come down to the games!!! & History proves that you don't need Superior specs to create a GREAT game!!

[Aeronishun]

Agreed.
It's the reason why the PS2 was the best-selling system of its generation despite being weaker, technically, than the Gamecube.
Spec junkies just don't get it.

[AceBlazer13]

Maybe only ps fanboys were at gamescom huh? Lol /s

[Aeronishun]

.....
I wasn't impressed.
Yes, the graphics are better, but the games....well, none of them were really doing something that made the console seem like it screamed "BUY ME AT $400 RIGHT NOW!" to me.

I'll get a PS4 in a year's time, once a price drop has hit and there's more single-player titles available.

[Kingnichendrix]

Got to agree with this i only seem to get that on my pc

[laijka]

Have to agree with this. And it's the same for the X1 honestly.

Every game presented so far that I feel interested in comes for either PC or current gen as well.

[younglj01]

PS4 will be the new standard in gaming...Kudos to Sony and Mark for making this happen...

Imagination will be free on the PS4,join now or get left in the "normal"...

[NeutralXP]

I would react too if all of their first parties are indie Games

[MilkMan]

I'm ready to get the PS4, but as of this writing there isn't much I want to play that is exclusive to PS4, mostly cross-platform games that I am otherwise getting for my WiiU.
(ive retired my Xbox account for now).

Things like the Division, Destiny, Deep Dungeon or whatever its called now, are games I would love to play, but there are not coming out this Christmas season.

So.....besides that driving game and Killzone and Knack I don't see much reason to get it right now!

Second Son looks good, but not enough to make me wait on line or pre-order from Amazon.

If there is something I am mission, please let me know folks. Thanks.

[Kos-Mos]

Well, people slept outside the cinemas for avatar tickets. You go figure...

[MilkMan]

LOL

[INehalemEXI]

piggy banks gone die !

[NeloAnjelo]

Superior... Couldn't have said it better myself.

[Der_Kommandant]

R.I.P. Xbox One

2013 - 2013

[hkgamer]

Nothing better than good old PR vids

[josephayal]

I want! btw nice camera

[Rimeskeem]

so PS4 could you be ready by saturday for a nice dinner?

[CertifiedGamer]

You Xbox One and PS4 fanboys, you guys are all pathetic...arguing over a camera???? Let it go, this shit has been all Sony fans have been saying for months. I am buying the PS4 but the Xbox one doesn't affect or matter to me. Why does a competing console affect you idiots so much? You guys aren't buying it so why do you guys give it a rent free home in your thoughts?

[thelaughingwiseman]

so they can make fan interviews 1080p, but they can't make game trailers the same res? I kid, I kid. Good stuff.

[NeutralXP]

How gamers react you mean how well paid actors react lol as if there interested in PS4 aww Sony how much did you pay them

[T2]

Yes because with 1 mil orders they couldnt possibly find 20 ppl for a simple video .... Lol

[TheKingWilliamV]

LOL@ 0.10 sec fat girl running into Gamescon hahahaha
