That's the tile that shows what he was doing last / what's currently running. It won't always be friends, most of the time it'll be whatever game you're playing.

Is this the same interface my new Windows 8 computer had before I used a program to put the start button and desktop back? I hated it on my PC, but I can see it working well for a console.

I wish Amazon would ship PS4 early.
Hey my power bills suck I'll take whatever I can get. Hopefully the new consoles are even better on energy management.

Really liking the dashboard. Always enjoyed the Xbox's interface more than the other two.

coming out september 25th?
I believe that is the 'current activity' tile... So he was in his friends list when he minimized it. Doesn't look like that 24/7.
Edit: beaten.
They paid $500 million for that...NFL app
ok. well then fix that friends list look cause it dont match. looks weird. I like the stuff on the side, but those red tiles are fugly.

What? The friends box is there because that was the last thing he was doing. It could literally be anything (game, app etc...) depending on what you were doing.

Awesome. Really looking forward to this.
They paid $500 million to be the official console of the NFL, it's not a bad tag to have,

Interesting use of the word flourish
You can change the tile colors as well.
I agree it looks kind of weird, but I don't know how you fix that. Since any possible thing you have opened is going to show up there.
You can change the color. I think the black in the back is stuck like that for now, though.

Seriously like why the hell is Sony waiting on?? Just let people get it a day or two early from online orders since the midnight launch attendees will have theirs by then while us Amazonians will have to wait until morning.
Well going by his mental timing of the boot time i'd multiply that download time by 4. The download was 500MB so there is that.
But he also said it took 45 seconds to boot and them timed it and it was 17. :/
Its the Microsoft employees in the internal beta.

You people who unplug your system from the wall to "save" power are seriously retarded. Do you unplug your TV's too? Do you unplug your coffee makers? Your microwaves? Your ovens? LOL...Are you seriously that poor you have to shut things off to save yourself a COUPLE of bucks a year?

Easy there killer.
red does not match with white and gray, removing the gray shit would be better.
ive playex around with those color tiles on the phone. Idk, those apps just look so static an uninviting.
Probably shouldn't use that word around here.

Exactly. You can't watch TV when you're not home. Unplug it!
You can't make coffee while you're at work.
You can't cook food while running errands outdoors.

I'm just saying...There's been like 3 or 4 people ITT who have said the same thing. If they are unplugging their console they must be unplugging their TV's and everything else in their household that uses standby power, which is pretty much everything. Phone chargers, computers, laptops, stereo equipment, their porch light that has a light sensor that turns on and off during the evening for motion
Ass hole much?
That's true I guess.
The heck? Thank god I got a new TV stand for this...
Yup. All this has done (besides make me want an Xbox One now) is make me want to play the PS4 even more. Ugh.
