Almost nuffin beats the PS4. It's the new PS3.

Not at all. It's actually the completely opposite.
The major change being that its easy to develop for.

So Sony finally catches up with MS. Good for devs.

Whatever helps you sleep at night.

*sigh* VGKing, I know you don't know better, so let me try to help you:

1. http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2013/03/sony-dives-deep-into-the-ps4s-hardware-power-controller-features-at-gdc/

quote: "The development environment coders will use is based on Windows 7 and fully integrated with Visual Studio 2010 and 2012, allowing developers to debug PS4 code just like PC code."

Believe it or not, Visual Studio is a product from Microsoft.

2. Microsoft, many ppl here don't seem to know, build compilers, debuggers, assemblers and whole dev-environments since *ages*. DirectX is also made by Microsoft.

3. John Carmack: http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9C0DE3DF1E30F935A35753C1A9639C8B63&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=all

quote: "''The Xbox 360 is the first console that I've ever worked with that actually has development tools that are better for games than what we've had on PC,'' John Carmack, Id's technical director and one of the most respected programmers in the game industry, said in a videotaped announcement."

quote: ""As a developer? It's really nice having a stabilised platform. Especially with the Xbox, it's so solidified, people know it so well - it's just really, really easy to develop for at this point."

 

Feel free to google for more sites proving my point.

Please stop hunting for posts that could possibly try to say that something with PS4 is not awesome and reply to things you obviously don't know anything of. Thanks.

I gave you a chance. I thought I was being nice with my comment but I guess now I have no choice. Reported.

(What am I talking about? Well you brought up Microsoft and the Xbox when it didn't need to be brought up. Your "Sony finally catching up to Microsoft comment is flaming. You are provoking people. Your latest reply didn't help any either. Windows is made by Microsoft? NOW THAT IS FUCKIN' OBVIOUS. The fact that you even felt the need to mention it is further proof that you have this agenda. I'll let the mods deal with you and this is the last you'll hear from me in this thread)
