Guy... I think you are wrong :) I think some things aren't modified, e.g. the file-system. This is also not an easy task, they will use something usual. And hopefully ntfs-support built in :) And I think they will also use some existing drivers, like for USB. But performance-crucial parts are of course manually crafted.
Still, I want a shell on a ps4! :) But yes, we won't notice it's a bsd. MS will do the same with their win8-kernel.
