The editors liked
The PlayStation 4 serves up dazzling graphics
Runs on a simplified and logical interface and boasts a fantastic controller. It has the upper hand in indie games and can stream a constantly growing list of legacy titles via PlayStation Now. The PS4 makes
Great games
Good value
Improved power efficiency
PS Plus still a great deal
DualShock 4 better than ever
The latest version of the DualShock controller feels excellent and is very responsive
Controller is charged over microUSB
Still plays Blu-rays and DVDs! Graphics look excellent on titles developed for the console
The editors didn't like
The Xbox One has a slight edge in non-gaming entertainment features such as streaming content and media portal apps
Optical audio removed
No 4K Bluray player
Menu system tries to look modern
But really feels clumsy
Will not let you access content from your network
Design is kind of misleading
And throws the first-time user a curve when trying to load discs

Cheap, Great for children, Lightweight, Provides nearly the same functionality as the DualShock 4
Awkward to hold if you're used to a normal DualShock 4 controller, Lacks a few advanced DualShock 4 features, Not made for adults with larger hands, Not available in a wireless model

Abstract: If you listen closely, you can hear it: the eye of the console storm. We are between technologies and the big hardware makers know it. It's a move from an optical-disk-based, high-heat standalone device. To paraphrase William Gibson: the future is here, i...
Navigating the UI feels fast and intuitive, Tons of great exclusive games, Compact size makes the console surprisingly portable
Gamepad battery life is still short, WiFi speeds can be frustratingly slow, System storage interface can be problematic and inaccurate
The PlayStation 4 has always focused on doing one thing incredibly well: playing video games. Two and a half years after hitting store shelves, a few unforeseeable issues have cropped up, but the PS4 is still the best console experience money can buy...

Abstract: It's really about damn time that Sony and/or a third party decided to release a PS4 media remote of some type. Yes, it's not all that difficult to pick up a DualShock 4 and control your console, but there's something to be said for a dedicated remote to h...
Abstract: The Xbox One gained some much-needed interface improvements and dropped to $400 (sans Kinect motion-and-sound detector) to match the PS4's price, while Sony's system gained some notable exclusives with games like Infamous: Second Son and The Last of Us: R...

Abstract: A half-year past launch, the PlayStation 4 still feels like an overachiever. The system runs better and is improving faster than its predecessor. Everything is relative, though. The PS4 is still a year-one console and has familiar year-one issues. It's n...
