Round Up Of PlayStation 4 Rumours, New Controller, New Sound And Game Streaming

With Sony holding a conference on Wednesday, there have been several "leaks" and rumors reported about what the PlayStation 4 may be.

 The Controller


the biggest leak has been the controller. Destructoid started is all with this picture of the supposed controller and PlayStation 4 dev kit. 


This evaluation from TheSixthaxis is one i agree with. i also think that the two black things either side of the Dev Kit are cameras that could be used with the Move Light Strip for PlayStation Move Gaming.


This later image, also from TheSixthaxis, shows the controller in a different profile. this shows that the controller appears to not be a thick as first thought and that the controller comes with a headphone jack.

3D Sound


This didn't get as much coverage as the rest of the rumors/speculation and the picture does not show the PS4. TheSixthaxis reported this story, it works by the PS4 using it's reported cameras and the Move Strip in the controller to work out where you are, which way you are facing. so when you are playing a game, if you move your controller to face a different direction or if you face a different direction, the sound you get from the headphone jack changes. for example, if you are being overtaken by another car, you can turn to look at the car and the sound you would get would be of that cars engine and not the sound of yours.

PS3 Game Streaming

Sony bought Gaikai and have been quiet as to what they are going to do with it. its been reported by the Wall Street Journal that the Gaikai tech will be used to stream games to the PlayStation 4. more specifically, it will be used to stream PlayStation 3 games to the PlayStation 4 console. its not mentioned in the article, but one of the main reasons for this move is because the architecture of the technology in the PlayStation 3 doesn't appear to be compatible with the PlayStation 4, meaning PS3 games can't play on the PS4.
