Orbis/Durango rumors sound disappointing

The PS4 rumours sound damn awesome to me.

 

• DVR-like recording capabilities for games – the console will be able to record up to 15 minutes of continuous gameplay or take screenshots with a "share" button. Video can be edited and published online from the console.
• Gaikai
• Super fast and efficient OS
• Fuckton of new IPs
• Great specs (6-9x PS360)
• Affordable ($400)

Can't wait to see what else it (and Xbox) will offer.

And seriously, why does it feel like everyone expects "new ways to play" to only come from gimmicky hardware rather than the actual games? 

 

this is how I feel.  Developers will innovate to stay competitive with each other.  I just want the hardware to give them the power to do that and the companies to give me value (PS+, free online, funding their exclusives, and supporting new IPs).  I hope the DS3 is compatible if they have some expensive touchpad controller (really don't even see how that would make anything easier since you wouldn't be able to tell where you were tapping relative to the screen) I'll just use it.
