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
Abstract: Two new gaming consoles. Both very powerful. Both very ambitious. Both about to meet head to head... and do battle for your time, money and attention, as well as the fate of the universe! Two weeks ago we reviewed the PlayStation 4. Last week we reviewed ...

There's not much more you can ask for in a console launch. As someone who's sat through the PS2 launch, with a million titles but none of them worth playing, and the PS3 launch with hardly any titles and nothing worth playing, the PS4 is head and shoulder...
Crippled media functionality, Power consumption, Few great games, Some user interface issues
There is so much potential that we feel confident that the PlayStation 4 will be a success As we said in the beginning, seven years have passed since the PlayStation 3 came out. It will probably stay around for a few more years, but PlayStation 4 is he...

When this review is first published, the PlayStation 4 will have just launched – less than a week ago, as it were. It's generally understood that a gaming console such as this has potential that can be unlocked in full many years after launch. The PS3 is...
Abstract: Earlier this morning Microsoft lifted the embargo on press reviews of the Xbox One. I've been playing with final hardware and near final software for a few days now and I wanted to share some thoughts. This is by no means one of our usual thorough review ...

Abstract: If the PlayStation 4 is any indication of the quality of the next generation of gaming, then it was worth the wait after all. I'm writing this review seven years to the day after Sony brought the PlayStation 3 to the United States, a console I swore I wou...
New DualShock 4 controller feels great in the hand, Prescient inclusion of excellent system-level sharing functions, Remote Sharing is neat—if you stay close to the console
Meager, unappealing game library, System interface remains cluttered and unintuitive, Controller has terrible battery life and a seemingly pointless lightbar
Sony's latest console is a powerful, intelligently designed gaming machine without a game to recommend it. It's poised to perform well in the years to come, but it's an underwhelming proposition at launch....
If there's one thing that's apparent from using the PS4 for a couple of weeks, it's that Sony has been listening. This system shows that they've heard our gripes over the PS3's XMB, and that they've heard our many George Foreman grill jokes. It shows that...
Stylis, compact desig, Improved controlle, Redesigned user interface easy to us, Faster game install, Beautiful graphics
Exclusive launch title lineup somewhat wea, Online multiplayer behind a paywall
Sony is ready to play and is playing to win. The $399 PlayStation 4 is a gamer’s console focusing on cutting down load times, sharing your best moments with your friends and maybe catching a movie or TV show in your downtime. That being said, with the ...
