PS4 PlayStation 4 News (Articles, Accessories and Everything Else)

Possibly stupid question, especially when I consider myself a smart guy on this end of this. Cell?

It is just the name of the CPU architecture. PS3 used Cell, 360 had Xenon and PS4 and XB1 use x86. Cell was apparently a pain to develop for and in the end really never took off. Just guessing but the current architecture is so different from the Cell that backwards compatibility is nigh on impossible besides spending time porting individual titles at a time.

So its entirely possible it can be emulated from software then which I imagine is what Xbox 1 will be doing anyway.

From what I hear, Playstation has some catching up to do in their conference.

Also, how many exclusives did XBone announce?

Not really, BC was a big thing but there was 1-2 first party games in the presser that are worth a look imo. Also still needing to download the game with BC changes things a bit.

 

[Quivorir]

Didn't they say you can use the disc? Or do you still need to download it even if you have disc?

 

[Mighty P]

Interested to see what PS will do now, I doubt they'll have much new info.

Media Player is up on the store to DL. 18MB

 

[HenrikLundqvist]

A little out of the loop. Other than the current playroom and Just Dance games - what's next for the Eye Camera?

A slow, painful death.

Only FAT format hard drives are supported for the media player.

 

[MarcusP2]

I thought FAT died 10 years ago. Presumably they've come up with some version that lets you save large partitions and files now?

PS3 only supported FAT-32 drives for media. I hope NTFS gets supported later on.

 

[JordanWCE]

First SATA2 and now FAT.

 

[aussiedude]

well the media player isnt for me till they support NTFS

 

[aussiedude]

Media player apparently works with remote play.

That's actually pretty cool.

Last Guardian, FF7 remake, Shenmue 3, could be 2009.
