Will you buy a PS4 if its not much more powerful but has a cool controller?

thats a big if because sony isn't dumb enough to do that. sony has been in the video game industry for almost 20 years. hypothetically speaking though, no i wouldn't. and i know this probably isn't related to your question but i'm going to say it anyway, if the rumors of what the ps4 will have are true then i'm officially switching to the xbox 720 (or whatever the next xbox will be called) because i'm tight on money right now and i can only offord used games at the moment. i love video games but if sony does what the rumors are saying they will do then that will prove to me that sony is just like activision and only cares about money

Depends on the coolness factor. If it is just a cheap gimmick, no. I am fine with the DS3. I would like some concaved sticks and better triggers though.

I am going to buy a PS4 no matter what. And I doubt that it will be anything less than great, also I would like to keep up with the system and titles this time. I hear the next Xbox is going to be 6 times as powerful as the 360 so Sony will match that at least and that sounds good to me.

If Sony abandons the Dualshock I'll be thoroughly disappointed

I'll buy it if it has good games. That is all.

If it has that motion control bullcrap than I am not touching that.

A PS4 that's not much more powerful than a PS3 would defeat the whole purpose. Considering how long the PS3 has been out, they could make something a LOT more powerful that wouldn't cost too much more. It's only making it state-of-the-art that makes it expensive.

And I don't want a different controller. That's just the interface between me and the games, not something I sit around admiring.

It all comes down to the games though. If they come out with some stuff that makes me excited, I'll buy it. If not, I don't care how many features it's got or anything else - I'm not interested.

I think I would. I really want a new way to control games and I'm tired of the graphics focus. I hope all the rumors are true.bionictonic

why would you want a new controller....like the move?

i just want them to change the analog sticks to something much more sturdy. im on my 4th controller. all the analog sticks dont last with me(tks cod)

The only console i'll be buying next gen is the xbox 720.

If the Playstation 4 just doubles the processing power of PS3. Just incerease everything by twice the current specs. I would be happy with that.

A new way to control games. The PSmove has already tried that.

But if you mean to change up the controller The DualShock 3 which is more or less the same as DualShock 2 and the original Dualshock controller from 1998.

A new controller? What ideas could Sony do? The PSvita and the Playstation 4 will be able to do whatever the Wii U can do. Sony seems to have countered that already. Should the Wii U be a runnaway success.

I would at least like Sonys controller for the PS4 to have the Same D-Pad style as the PSvita. Until the release of the PSvita Sony has had the same D-Pad design on every Sony Videogame machine since Dec 4th 1994.

What ideas for new control can there be?

Hell no... if i wanted that crap i would go with nintendo...

If sony supplies great games with its first party like the PS3 has had, then I will get one. Hardware does not matter. The games do.

maybe lol

No, well I would but alot later, I would probably go for the slim version. Also, I hope they keep the same controller, i've always loved it.

Power and a new controller aren't really my focuses. I just want something innovative.

I have the Move because I thought it would be kind of cool with the sharp shooter attachment, and it really isn't. I've yet to try on-rail shooters with it so that may help, but then I'd almost rather go to an arcade. The Move seems to be best with games like Tumble, where it' can be used to pull objects forward, backward, left, and right. I thought that was rather innovative, as is Echochrome 2.

Other than that, I would probably never pick up a PS4 if it's based on motion control. The current controller is just fine, and only Nintendo seems to drastically change their controller with each system, and it's fine for them as it's their thing. However, by now I've come to expect a certain standard from Sony in terms of controller, and expect them to focus on the power of their consoles.

I think it's funny how people still think a more powerful console is done just for graphics, it's needed in order to increase every aspect of a game, graphics just happen to be a part of that and are the easiest for people to talk about because they're usually the first noticable difference.

I will buy PS4 as long as it isn't motion controlled like the stupid Wii.

nope, i'm done with gaming.Sk8ter_213

Then why are you here?

for who ever said there changing over to the next xbox because there rumour sony are trying to wipe out the used game market, is completely false and i've heard rumours thats exactly what microsoft want to do and i'm sorry but micrsoft scheme money out of people all the time, remember the old hd dvd thing you had to buy seperate, or the fact you have to pay to play online, also they still sell 360's without hard drive's, so if one of them is going to do it, it's gonna be microsoft.

you know what i like the ps3 graphic's i'd love for it to be able to produce better graphics maybe a little but you know what i really want them to bring a console out which get's rid of loading and allows the games to flow at 60fps, and no lag in single player at least. i think now is the best time than ever to up the graphics slightly but sort the smoothness out, make the console better in that respect.

If next gen.. has restriction then I'm gald i ordered my new rig.....

What's with this stupid-ass push from people on these boards for a new Sony controller? If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

This question = the opposite of what I'd be looking for in PS4.
