oh you!
It would be alot faster if you can just write letters on it, instead of using it to navigate that silly virtual keyboard.
Well, they already did with the XMB, but I hope that they fix a lot of this clutter. I can't see a method to how to navigate the screens. Just looks like shit comes up on the screen and you click on it.

Sony, please turn this into a PS4-exclusive television series (preferably with Josh Schwartz as executive producer). I simply need to know whether or not Will Walker finds true love with Sarah Greene.
Handwriting recognition would suck, but using the trackpad would be like using the swype keyboard on Android phones. A bit like this:

Whole lot of info in here. Being able to download multiplayer vs single player first? Nice. Headset looks alright but but I have Turtle Beaches for that anyway. Mobile Playstation Store? Woopwoop!
Yeah it pretty clear from the console reveals which company specialises in Hardware and which one specialises in Software.

A combo of Metro with XMB would have been sweet. As long as the social stuff can be turned off or at least stricted to video game stuff only i'll be happy. And i want dynamic themes too!
Parties! Finally!!!
There's also what seems to be a new version of the cross game text chat mixed in with Parties.
Looks like the regular chat rooms from PS3 but obviously improved. Seems great. It should be super fast and not a lag fest when you used it ingame.

I don't tihnk it's been confirmed yet, but I think we are expecting stealth installs while you are playing the game instead of waiting a fucking week like with some PS3 games lol.
With the size of the games and the amount of RAM to fill I expect installs to be required for all games, but some might allow you to install more than others.
Doubt any will allow you to play without the disk though, as that's just a license to sell the game and continue playing.
Like what I've seen of the UI so far. Like the option to download SP or MP first too. Would love to see the stats for who downloads what first on games like COD. Sure most will buy it retail, but a bunch will still get it digitally.
PS4 influx of Xbox Live community confirmed.
Haha, you're a laugh riot.

Nice functionality, I hope they have plenty of customisation options as the default looks bland.

Greatly improved UI and features compared to PS3, and I hope it is just as fast and fluid as they show here.
However, I fucking hate the video itself. Just comes off lame and fake.

So is Sony talking about this officially or are they waiting for Gamescom?
I bet we'll just get some video walkthrough of the UI on the PS Blog.

Yeah, I don't like it. A lot of boxes floating onto a blue background. Looks exactly like an interface that was made be people who doesn't know how to make interfaces.
But that's ok, I'm not planning on using it for anything more that launching the game I've just inserted into the drive.
