Made my skin crawl...
As someone stated before, "4" is a bad omen in japan. I don't want it to be called Playstation 4; I love me some codenames!
"The Japanese don't like the number 4 and 9 because of their pronunciation. Four is pronounced "shi" which is the same pronunciation as death. Nine is pronounced "ku" which has the same pronunciation as agony or torture."
PS move is a massive investment? You say that based on what exactly?You are crazy...
No way in hell is Sony going to have a WiiU architecture. Their focus is on PSMove right now. It's massive investment and they'll do their best to capitalize on it.
The current design needs to be scrapped. My allegiance is up for grabs next gen, but not if Sony sticks with the archaic dual shock design.
Made my skin crawl...
No thanks.
Ah, why did you quote that monster pic?
Oh god if the PS4's controller is like the 360's I will cry
Welcome to the next generation.Damn this stuff is leaking early.
I wonder if they'll cave to any backlash with their new controller design and just revert back to dualshock like last time lol
Tears of joy?
That pretty much confirms it? I'm hyped now! Also, I hope Dualshock 3 works on Orbis regardless of the change.
@Cripshay Like they would tell a web designer anything!
But the pointer and split controller don't deserve to die ;_;
Well they need to get over superstition sometime.As someone stated before, "4" is a bad omen in japan. I don't want it to be called Playstation 4; I love me some codenames!

Boomerang?
Dammit Sony I'm not as young as I used to be. My brain is already hardwired for the dual shock and my neural pathways are now cemented in place, unable to change to adapt to a new Sony remote. It's going to be like learning another language.
Normally I would say no, but way back when we found out the Vita was the first codename for the PSP2 and in the end turned out to be the final name.
Tears of joy?
How about the same layout with handles that are actually comfortable to hold? Would that screw up your muscle memory?
Why would I be happy they're coping an inferior controller?
Would be absolute suicide.
Anything other than adding a number 4 to the end of the word "PlayStation" and acronym "PS" reprents nothing but marketing headaches and confusion amongst consumers. It's pissing money down the drain trying to educate consumers before you've even come to market.
Calling it Orbis, PlayStation Orbis or dropping PlayStation altogether would be a disaster for Sony.

I highly prefer the DS3 over Xbox 360's controller but change is welcome I just hope MS will change their controller too.
