I think they might add it back once we get to live stream to YouTube since YouTube is not a gaming website and they really don't care what is added to it. Too bad Ustream sucks.
@get2sammyb Well, if you have 2,000 friends I can see how that could be an issue. At least on the PS3 you had a CHOICE and you could turn notifications off and on.
One MAJOR complaint that I would like to see fixed and is missing on the PS4 that was a feature of the PS3 are notifications when your friends log on. If you are not constantly checking your friends list or a friend doesn't let you know they are online you would never know that they were ever online. I would like to see this happen along side media streaming.
I would be a little cautious on putting in a SSD until I get more information on how much writing and rewriting the PS4 does over time since that can burn out an SSD.
I love the DS4 so far. The battery life could be a lot better but is has not been an issue yet because I have been plugging my controller in when I put my PS4 on standby.
@get2sammyb Yes, I never cared for Super Stardust but once you give it a try it can be very addicting. I wasn't planning on playing when I first heard about it but I gave it a try after I saw the reviews. Make sure you read the manual first because they don't explain everything to you within the game.
Yeah I think I played a little bit of every game with the exception of the sports games and Knack. I think the launch weekend went pretty well considering it was a launch weekend.
@Deadstanley I am talking about the live streams not the uploaded videos. http://i.imgur.com/GfWASJp.jpg This is the default setup. I would like to live steam full screen like others are doing.
@Deadstanley You might know this and I should probably post this in the forum but how do you change the layout of what you are streaming. On some streams the video is fullscreen and on some streams the video is smaller and it shows like how many viewers are watching with a chat box. Also I see some streams the camera stream is on the left and some streams the camera is on the right. The other drawback I see is that if you want to steam video with the camera it just picks a random spot to zoom in on and it doesn't appear that you can adjust this setting.
Why didn't they make the default light blue instead of white? Since every time they showed a PS4 it had a blue light and also it would look cooler...lol Not really a big issue just a thought.
@RyoHazuki Nice! I am planning on preordering Infamous too. What you see is a free 2-sided poster that GameStop was giving out when you pick up your PS4.
Well, I haven't played much of it yet but I will be playing it most of the weekend. I am super happy with it so far. The DS4 is awesome! It is kind of hard to explain it without touching it first hand. I did use the touchpad in Warframe and it is pretty cool. I played a few minutes of Killzone and it started to install right away. I was able to start the game withing minutes just like the videos you've seen online The overall speed of the system is amazing including the store. I already received a few updates for games and they automatically installed. I have added a bunch of games to my download list so when I get off of work I might have too many choices...LOL I haven't used the voice commands yet but my friend sent me a video of him using it and it works very well. The only complaint I have so far is the smartphone app. They say you can do things remotely but I can not connect to my PS4. The only way you can do anything with your PS4 is if you are on the same network locally. I can't wait to get home so I can go on a PS4 gaming binge. haha
@ferrers405 Is there a dollar amount or are they showing up as free? You might still have to go through a checkout process but not get charged anything.
I went to Gamestop and got #15! As far as games I got Killzone, NFS, and ACIV. I returned my games to Gamestop and took advantage of Target's buy 2 get one fee special. Feel free to add me as a friend on PSN.
OMG! OMG! The sky is falling!! LOL! I am not worried about this. These appear to be isolated instances and there are going to be failures/issues no matter what. It's the nature of the beast. It all depends how many failures there are and how the company responds.
Pretty cool list! Not a fan of COD but I can see why it is on the list. The Unfinished Swan would be the only surprise on the list. I played the demo and enjoyed it but I personally don't know many people who have played it and I would assume Journey would be on the list.
I can't wait, we are so close to launch!! I bet they are going to reveal The Last Guardian for PS4...lol I bet the reveal that shocked Yoshida is not game related but maybe something like YouTube will be availble soon or something like that.
@Scollurio Exactly, I don't know what people are expecting. This is a pretty solid launch lineup. People need to realize that it is a "launch" lineup. Not just another November or another year.
@irken004 @UNC5052 Yes, Twitch has a "Upload to YouTube" option so you can always transfer your videos if you wanted to. I have personally done this myself.
The only one I played was Damnation and it was horrible. I almost played Rogue Warrior but a friend told me it was horrible. I saw Angry Joe's review of Ride to Hell and it by far appears to be the worst game so far.
@get2sammyb Yeah I agree. I would bet that by the end of this next gen we will see Titanfall or a version of Titanfall on the PS4. Unless Titanfall doesn't live up to the hype.

Re: Not Got a PS4 Yet? Take a Tour of the User Interface While You Wait
Well I think the PS4's UI is a massive improvement over the PS3. It's also pretty fast including the Playstation Store which was sluggish on the PS3.
