It's fine if they add some shortcuts with voice and face recognition, as long as the UI has been fully optimized for controller use. Voice recognition is not for me.

Is Move still supported on the ps4? My 4 year old is currently loving Puppeteer with the move. That light ball on the end of a stick with buttons. 4 year olds dream toy.

Just interested, why is voice not for you.  Do you have bad experience with voice commands or you just do not like talking to your devices.  The only reason I am asking is that I can see voice being much faster than picking up a controller and navigating to something instead of just saying "PS4 Play God of War".

I don't like talking to devices. (except cursing crashing pc programs)
I like browsing through my installed games, videos, etc
I'm soft spoken, voice recognition hardly ever works for me on the phone
I have kids making noise and it's trouble enough to keep the remote from them
I prefer the certainty and direct response that buttons give.

The only time I can see it being useful is when I know what I'm looking for in the online store and have to enter a search term without a keyboard currently attached. However I have about 5% faith in that working, as I'm not a native English speaker, have a slight accent and don't always know the correct pronunciation (to much hilarity of my wife) although I usually do know the correct spelling.

So not for me.
