Embargo me if old.

**EDIT** Editing cuts (black screens) are not part of the UI flow

Broke embargo.

What an awful way to edit the video, with that black screen cuts that can be confused with a UI thing.

That vid's from broll footage that was only supposed to be edited for media interviews or with commentary, etc.

Obv, Sony's not that smart in that they put it up on their press site for anyone to grab, and finding their press site password isn't exactly hard.

Anyway, I have a bunch of high-res screen caps from this was planning to share at 9. Lemme get them uploaded for you.

Edit: Nevermind, Killthee's taken care of you.
 
Wish they didn't have an ad in your games library. But hell, even Steam gives me a pop up when I open straight to my games library. :(

Overall I prefer the XBox One's UI, but I can't remember if it had background music... or if it paused at each menu change like the PS4 UI does. I find that a bit distracting.


Edit: Love how you can use the Vita in that 3rd video!

PS Store doesn't look bad at all. I guess the PS3 just couldn't handle how heavy it was, but it seems fine on the PS4. I might actually browse it and not use the web store exclusively anymore.

It is good and slick but seems like it is missing something. Seems functional but not too amazing.

Excited to flip though it myself come Friday at 12:05 am :)
 
The facial recognition is basically useless the way it's currently set up, having to fit your face in the framed outline

The UI is definitely clean and fast. Some concerns on how easy it'll be to navigate when you have a lot of content on it but they've got most of the basics covered. Reminds me of a smart tv UI, but faster

Ha! I thought it was part of the actual UI Flow :s

Random bit of b-roll Killzone footage at the end of the third video.

Black screen cuts are awful but the UI looks really snappy and cool
It's the video, not the UI, that have those cuts. This footage is not intended to be viewed un-edited like this.

Yeah, but lets be fair here it's not like they went all out with the camera like MS did with the Kinect. Still cool for those that want to use it I guess.

Is there a "games library" (like steam) where you can see the games you've downloaded/not downloaded?

The main UI contains a list of 'recent' items at the end of which is a 'Library' icon which I believe takes you to all the stuff you have downloaded (it may also include stuff you own but haven't downloaded)

I don't really have an opinion on this to one way or another. Still it looks the kind of UI that will receive a major overhaul before the generation ends.
