First teasing us the new DualShock 4 controller, Sony has finally unveiled the new PlayStation 4 in this year's E3... and it looks brilliant. Just watch the video below and make your own thoughts about it.


The new PlayStation 4 has over 140 titles being developed by first party and third part developers. In addition to that, there are no restrictions when it comes to used games (disc-based) as you can lend it, trade it or even sell it to your friend. What's more, there is no need to be connected online just to play single player games or the need for any kind of authentication.

But for those players who like online play, they need a PlayStation Plus account. If you previously have a PlayStation Plus account on your PS3, it will be carried over to the PS4.


Lastly, the console packages comes with the following: 8GB of memory, a 500GB hard drive, a Blu-ray Disc drive, USB 3.0, Ethernet and 802.11 b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1, a wireless DualShock 4 controller, monoaural headet, electric power cord, HDMI cable, and a USB cable.
