Will the PS4 be a revolution to the industry?

Not really. It looks like a great console and im sure it will be successful but many things that they are doing has been done before. Even sharing was already done by Onlive. Onlive was very interesting but the problem lays with the fact that people's internet is just not good enough for a lot of the stuff that they are doing. That is something galkai is going to have issues with. For the people who can use it are going to love it but there will be tons that cant use it.

Anyways why is it suppose to be revolutionary exactly? The last revolutionary thing that happened to the industry was motion controls and to many that could have hurt the industry as much as it has helped

motion control was done tons of times prior to the wii and it still changed the industry.  as it has been discussed a million times before, it's not really who does it first but who makes it popular.

 

OT - maybe.  not so much the hardware but the services surrounding it (gaikia) that has a chance to be revolutionary.  i fully expect something similar from MS but if this truely is the "last gen" and it transitions gaming into being a service not a machine then the word revolutionary will be required to describe it.
