Don't they have 150+ PS4 dev kits? This is just a gift sent from Sony.

ND has received a full retail version of the PS4, this one was posted by Mr. Christophe Balestra Co President of Naughty Dog ^_^
I'd wait for the network to be enabled with all the leaderboard, trophy, backgrounds etc. to load in before we know for sure.
What is it with Sony and their OSes lacking foldering options on the first run?
I get all that, but somebody needs to be testing that signed code in some form works on the units they're beginning to manufacture now because waiting until only a few weeks before launch to do it for the very first time seems kinda crazy to me. But maybe you know better.
Yeah, I really don't agree with him there. The XMB has always had the edge in usability and seeing where you want to go before you even know you want to go there. Except they started adding to many sections at one point. Actually, I think his beef is the settings menu. Which is stupid. Oh well, still like the guy.
If by bias you mean not jumping on the Sony bandwagon? Then yes. I can kinda appreciate his distance from both of the platforms. It's possible he sees too much negativity and tries to not succumb to it. I've never noticed.
So much Blue. I wonder what specific Blue Sony calls it.

You and me both bro. I want it to change colors throughout the day. Bottoming out at maroon during the night. And yellow during the morning, green at midday, blue afternoon, and red at night again... Can someone make this happen? By force if necessary?
I mean, it's not the most farfetch'd thing in the world. At least you're not forced to update it to play games. And the signed code thing. I mean, I guess they might start testing as release dates get closer. It's not like Sony doesn't have literally MILLIONS of these things to give as gifts to developers.
It looks like it'll stand perfectly fine without even the stand. And I don't think the orientation would matter, looking from how flat and balanced it is.

All those are disabled on DevKits and Debug units, since you can turn off any HDMI encryption.

Looks so quick and snappy, love it and that picture of the console looks soooooo good. Man November 15th seems so far away yet its so close.
Ya, I'm asking if you can "activate" the DVR so that there's no time limit and whether you could transfer those video files to your PC for editing. The 15 minutes of recording is automatic.
I believe Sony might let you record as long as you want. Then again, all the proof I have is a random Kotaku dude. http://kotaku.com/its-actually-not-capped-at-15-minutes-the-15-minute-th-1066527396
I'm sure someone will come up here and debunk this for me.
And I'm pretty sure you can export from the HDD to the computer. Then again, someone can easily come back here and debunk this. NeoGAF, help me not make an idiot of myself.

Looks disgusting, but like I give a shit. I only care about video games.
Ooh I see, content promotion doesn't count as ad when it's from Sony. Next you'll be telling me that James Bond's Sony Vaio fetish is part of the character!
Less salt in the diet, it's bad for you.
Also in comparison to deodorant and snacks and other junk on xbox it's easy to see how people see it differently.

XMB yeeees
Yoshida tweeted that it was integrated I think
They've been manufacturing them for like a month already. And developers need them to be able to see their games running on actual retail hardware.
It looks like you get a 'what's new/recent activity screen' when you first switch on, but I don't see how you change away from that. On the Xbox you'd use the bumpers to flick to dedicated games/TV/music etc tabs, but here it looks like you might have to go up to the XMB and hen scroll along to find things?
It'd be nice if you could flick quickly between main content types with the shoulder buttons. And I'd like to see how games etc are organised - if that horizontal list on the watch dogs page is literally an activity history that won't be useful to find something you haven't played for a while

I've always wondered about this as well. The 'don't turn off the console as long as -spinning circle- is shown'-messages at the start of every game are redundant.

I am not sure in a game, but our leaderboards support both Real Name and PSN ID together if the player has chosen a real name. Works nicely.

I am not sure about that, but since you can now have Real Name, it helps massively in remembering who people are!
No more ManRoar1985! (wonder if that name is taken? )looks quick
display name change? ( prob not)
name requests?
for the love of god sony, I WILL GIVE YOU MONEY, MONEY, MONEY MONEY MONEY!!

Yo, listen up here's a story
About a little guy
That lives in a blue world
And all day and all night
And everything he sees is just blue
Like him inside and outside
Blue his house
With a blue little window
And a blue corvette
And everything is blue for him
And himself and everybody around
Cause he ain't got nobody to listen to
I'm blue
Da ba dee da ba di x7

You should be able to choose the start up. PS1, PS2, PS3 or PS4.
Couple more questions for youI am not sure about that, but since you can now have Real Name, it helps massively in remembering who people are!
Does the PS4 remember how much time you put into each game (like Steam playtime)?
How much time does it take to exit a game?
Do you know anything about PS3 wheel support?
Does the PS4 record at 1080p? Does it record only gameplay? (for instance, can you pause the game and head to the Trophy list while recording?)
Can you save videos/screenshot locally and move it to a USB stick?
Thank you again

I haven't seen this, would be good though (like on 3DS, Steam like you said)
How much time does it take to exit a game?
Instant, like Vita. Press PS button, you are out. Press again to enter back in.
Do you know anything about PS3 wheel support?
Sorry, no idea.
Does the PS4 record at 1080p?
Yep.
Does it record only gameplay? (for instance, can you pause the game and head to the Trophy list while recording?)
That's a good question, I am not sure! I assume it's like recording on Sky TV where it ignores the UI if you bring it up.
Can you save videos/screenshot locally and move it to a USB stick?
You can on a dev kit, I assume you can on retail (but don't hold me to that!)
Awesome!

looks fast and smooth.. I really like it!
Sorry, I meant to completely exit a game - like on Vita when you peel the screen from the upper right to the lower left corner.
On Vita is instant, I believe PS4 takes longer, right? (Xbone takes like 10 seconds)
Thank you, good stuff
Hope you don't get in trouble for answering so many questions lolKennyLinder

Ah I see. Maybe that depends on the size of the game that its dumping out of memory. Ours is small, so its really quick

Times infinity if the last one is true.
I would like to be able to take screenshots from movies for wallpapers and stuff, but I guess you're working, not watching blu-rays, and don't know?

I doubt it would work with movies due to copyright.

Apologies, I think video captures are actually 720p, it's image captures that are 1080p. This may change, dev kit environment etc. Please understand.
Just as expected.
Can you manually start the recording for record more than the last 15 minutes?

Need a GTA V next gen to record free roam chaos, be great if you could save your stuff to a USB
Ah, bummer.
Do you know who is making the firmware? Is it SCEJ, like Vita?
Can you please ask them about that playtime feature? If it's not going to be there on day1 it never will be
But I guess it's too late because mass production is already happening. I asked @yosp about a dozen times on twitter... now I'm a sad panda.

If only they would do this and finally allow Raptr access to track this sort of information like Microsoft does.

I can confirm that all recording is 720p, 30 frames per second
when you take a picture, you get it in 1080P
Yeah, that's what I'm expecting.Thanks.
aaaaand who are you?
