I gotta be the only one who actually loves the XMB... IDK I'm kinda sad to see it go. But yeah, the new GUI is really nice too. It's... IDK... Fresh??? lol.

And the faces the guy makes are priceless. Lmao.

I quite liked the XMB, but - as you've said - this design also looks pretty nice too.

I think I still prefer my XBOX 360 interface. Sony's interfaces are just too busy for me, but I'm still getting a PS4 over an XBONE.

Pretty sure if it asks for your real name you could just put in your user. Not like sony wouldn't let me have my real name as "AdmiralClassy" my parents might just have been odd.

The magic of marketing.  Suddenly 25-50GB games download in 35 seconds, and the system can guess what you are going to type based on the first three letters.  Seems legit.

You realize Sony already touched on the download piece, they've optimized their system to download core pieces first and download the rest in the background so you can start playing quicker. 

"For starters, it will now be possible to play games on PS4 even if the downloading is not yet completed by using the effective streaming technology used in the next generation gaming console"

that's not what I was pointing out.  The download bar went from 0 to 50% in three seconds.  Then he got a prompt 30 seconds later that it was installed.  I don't care what streaming technology they use, it will never be that fast, unless you happen to be connected to Sony's LAN.

 

But, the statement you quoted is another marketing thing, so you can choose to accept it at face value and be disappointed when it doesn't work as fast as advertised, or look at how networks in real life work versus how they work in lab environments.

Sure, but it's a video, did you want to watch 10 minutes of progress bar? Anyway, checking the video again, he downloaded the multiplayer portion first so it would have been a lot faster than download the whole game / campaign and all. I have Verizon FiOS 85Mbps so it would take me about an hour and fifteen minutes to download a 40GB game.

I have Verizon FiOS 85Mbps so it would take me about an hour and fifteen minutes to download a 40GB game. 

The multiplayer still shares the same assets, models, textures, physics engine, and other arbitrary game code with the campaign.  There is still a lot to download to start the multiplayer portion.

 

FiOS doesn't have an 85MB/s level, they have a 75MB/s level, which costs $90/month on its own.  You also assume you have great throughput to Sony, which is funny, shows how little some people understand what theoretical maximum throughput means.  The PS4 will still be limited to a certain number of concurrent connections, not enough to even scratch the surface of the pipe you have.  You will get things at around the same pace as someone with much lower bandwidth, as the connection limit will undoubtedly be optimized for the most popular broadband connection level, 15Mbps.

 

With a larger pipe you can do more at any given time, but it doesn't ensure that you will have a connection to a given server that is any faster (wider) than anyone else.  If they are able to increase the number of allowed concurrent connections dynamically it would be faster, but that usually makes the experience worse for those with slower connections, because you are chewing up a big portion of Sony's bandwidth.
