Battlefield 4: PS4 reveal suggested by countdown image – rumour

[KINGOFOOTBALL]

Can't believe they're clinging to that nearly 20 year old controller design.

Also with that Kotaku article is another angle on the prototype PS4 controller. Fuckers still didn't add proper triggers. Hope my Pelican triggers fit.

I really wish they'd move the fucking left stick to where the D-pad is. Who cares if it looks like an Xbox controller.

Don't fuck with what works. See: PS3 boomerang controller debacle.

I wonder if we'll see any on-stage demos today? At the very least I'm expecting a 5 minute launch/near-launch game trailer mashup.

I wouldn't be surprised to see some BF4 footage.

[JimLeavy59]

They'll use some cheap Twitter hashtag like #BF4onPS4

[Buzzman]

Im getting really excited

Disagree. The controller is the key to user experience. MS spent a great deal of time to come up with the XBox controller which borrowed from just about everyone they corrected there "Size" issues and basically had to his there 3rd controller before getting it right. Wiis entire success was based on its controllers , XB leapt ahead with Kinect and its usage. PS has been stuck with PS move and a 20 year old controller design. They cant get it right. The sticks need to move , the shoulder buttons are god awful , and the damn [] button had me hitting start all the damn time. I would imagine false touch screen hits is going to be an issue as well. As Leftwich said who cares if it looks like something else.
I really want a PS this time around but ugh Ive just hated the controller for so long.

I'm not completely against this controller. They've beefed it up a little bit, which is nice b/c the Dualshock feels so cheap. My biggest problems were the lack of real triggers and the convex sticks. At least they changed the sticks to the concave style. The triggers are improved a little bit, but they still aren't proper triggers. I don't mind the stick placement at all. I do prefer the Xbox stick placement, but it doesn't bother me either way. Overall it's not bad, I'm mostly glad that they seemed to have beefed the controller up a little bit.

Btw, very excited for this evening.

I hope the improve the trophy system as well. WTF is the syncing BS?

[jms493]

If the drop 2 models...429 with no disc drive or 529 with disc drive, which one do you buy?

[Derrville]

Is today the big day?

Is today the big day?

yes...6 pm est.

[Swarley]

So what are everyone's predictions? PS4 reveal, Vita price drop, couple decent Vita game reveals. Are we getting any PS4 game reveals that we haven't already seen?

[jms493]

I think we will see form factor, controller, specs, PS eye stuff, sizzle reel. Some Vita Stuff...I PRAY!!

No Price, no Release Date, no Move stuff, and no Online stuff.
