Pro Evolution Soccer 2015 is the first PES title to make the jump to next-generation consoles after Konami decided to skip porting the 2014 version of the game to the PS4 and Xbox One. As Konami continue it’s push for the game, new footage has been released showing the game in action, featuring over 20 minutes of footage recorded directly from a PS4.
PS4 Firmware v1.70 releases in just a couple of days, bringing many features and improvements to the system, including recording of HD game footage to external devices, the SHAREfactory video editing application and more. PlayStation Japan has released a video to show more of the new features in action, but in Japanese of course.
Sony has released the full video of the Project Morpheus reveal last week from GDC in San Francisco. The announcement wasn’t live-streamed like most of Sony’s events, but it was filmed and later uploaded to YouTube for your viewing pleasure. The hour-long video shows the current VR headset prototype and features SCE World Wide Studios President Shuhei Yoshida.
Sony and Naughty Dog has released the Grounded: The Making of The Last of Us documentary for free on YouTube for all to enjoy. The 90 minute video takes a look behind-the-scenes at Naughty Dog to show how the game was developed, from its original conception to the final playable version.
I find it strange that Sony has gone through the trouble of letting the PS4 detect PS3 discs inserted into the system, instead of just showing a generic “Unsupported disc” error message. I did a small experiment to see how the PS4 would handle PS3, PS2 and PSOne discs and what I found was a little surprising, as the video below shows.
Both the PS4 and Xbox One require to install games on the consoles, but you’ll be surprised just how vast the difference in install times are between the two consoles. A video from Kotaku compares the PS4 and Xbox One in installing Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, of which the results are astonishing. The PS4 takes just 42 seconds to install, while the Xbox takes almost 6 minutes with no updated, and a massive 10 minutes with downloading patches.
Direct-feed footage of inFamous: Second Son has surfaced showing over five minutes of new footage from the upcoming game from Sucker Punch. The new footage shows just how impressive the game is looking as it nears competition, ready for release in March 2014, with destructible environments and use of the DualShock 4’s unique features.
A new video has surfaces showing over 12 minutes of PS4 gameplay from upcoming Metal Gear title, Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes. The video was uploaded by GamesHQMedia, with commentary from Sean Eyestone, Co-Producer at Kojima Productions. The footage is taken from a side-mission, which are knows as “side-ops”, so doesn’t give away the main story.
Sony hosted a PS4 event in Hong Kong were it showed off the PS4’s features including more footage of the PS4’s Dynamic Menu, multi-user sign-in, the PS4 camera and The PlayRoom app. The video, shot by MemeHK, is just under 30 minutes long and includes some new UI footage and a Q&A session.
A new video has emerged showing PS4 launch title Killzone: Shadow Fall being played on the PS Vita using Remote Play. The downside is that the video is very short – only 14 seconds – and very poor quality. Like Knack, the display for Killzone is simply replicated on the PS Vita, allowing someone to watch you play on the TV, even if you’re using Remote Play in another room.
