I hope that's the case, A nice speedy hybrid HDD drive should mean pretty decent performance and load times. One of the many bonuses of having a user-upgradeable HDD as opposed to one that's fixed in place.

an SSD in the ps4 should be pretty impressive?

Wait, I thought we couldn't do full installs from discs on PS4? But now https://twitter.com/yosp/status/373351063358672896

Plus that picture looks amazing! Can't wait!

This has been the case all along. All PS4 games have a mandatory install, however you need the disc in there to play the game. There was some confusion about this before because of a tweet where somebody asked if they could play the game without the disc, and the reply was something like ' you can't install games from disc' when he actually meant 'you can't install the game from disc and play without the disc in the drive'

I'm not aware that they'd ever said previously that you could install the entire game to the HDD though.

Not sure if its the entire game, or just most of it. They certainly said there would be an installation of some type for all games, because they were talking about how you can begin playing the game while it continues to install in the background.

Mentions it in here:

But that's the point, the tweet above suggests it can install the full game.

so can you install games to HDD and play without disc or not? also that Infamous Screeny looks incredible.

 

[TheVoice]

You'd still need the disc.

 

[Mobius 1]

you install, but have to have the disc present to play.

 

[Quinnaay]

Amazon France PS4 console, Killzone, Camera, 2nd Controller £436... if that deal hits UK amazon im all over it price above is including delivery (£6).

 

[Quinnaay]

Would have been so much better if it didnt require a disc so its basically the same as my 360 in that respect, i guess if you could install and play without people would be renting/selling etc unless they coded it to one Console.

thanks for posting that video was nice, looks really slick.. feeling like buying the PS4 again now but its so difficult lol

Very silly question, but can you store audio/video on the PS4 - like you can on the PS3?

Would the PS4 have less functionality than a PS3?

Your right it is a stupid question.

After a few comments about headsets in the GTA5 thread its made me think that I should be after a new headset. Slightly tired of not able to use voice comms at night as Ive only got the PS3 BT headset so something that does both game/voice actually is appealing.

Anyone got any recommendations on ones that will work for PS3/PS4 and hopefully PC? It seems PS3 ones should work with the PS4, I just dont know whats good - not looking to spend anything over £100 though, when I wont be MPing Ill be using my HD595s so dont want to invest too much just for MP stuff...
