Today, I was watching Sony's conference today announcing the Playstation 4. There were many different things announced such as the new controller, new camera, a new series of games for the PS4 and other big news on other publishers commenting about the PS4.

                Sony showed off a new prototype controller called "Dualshock 4". The prototype controller looks like the same controller as the previous Dualshock controller but contains new features such as a touch pad, stereo headset jack and a new share button. I am very happy that Sony reintroduced the old controller design again because the comfort of controller feels really nice. Many features are returning as well such as Six-axis motion and rumble support. I am really enjoying the new features was put into the controller.

                The new camera shown at the conference had a completely new makeover. It is a rectangle bar which you can tilt to an 85 degree diagonal angle views. This is one of my favourite designs because you will not be requiring to move the camera on top or bottom of the television each time when you want to adjust it. The new camera looks slick and stylish and I am hoping that Sony will stay with the camera what they have designed.

                Sony announced two new game series named Knack and Driveclub. Knack is looking great with its cartoony graphics and wonderful animations. Driveclub doesn't give me interest due to it being a driving game but the graphics shown on it is looking like it is proving the PS4 to be strong. Both of these games will be on release at launch when the PS4 hits. There is also a new Killzone game that is also coming up. Killzone has been a great series in the long run (except for the first game…) and I hope their new installment will be great as well.

                Other studios have shown off their games as well. Blizzard showed off Diablo 3 for the Playstation 3. My first thought of this was why Blizzard announced this when they are supposed to support the PC base. It was a shut down for the PC community. Bungie showed off their trailer for Destiny, their newest game. I was in massive hype with this game and I hope this game will be great.

               The conference was great and I hope Playstation 4 will become one will have an exciting time when it gets released. I am much hyped up for this console because I haven't been using a console for so long. The WiiU was a disappointment for me and I hope the PS4 will put me back into good shape for my console life.
