Review on Game console Sony PlayStation 4 1000 GB HDD, Uncharted 4 Limited Edition by Michal Cedronski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am amazed at how well made the product is, just magical!

The 1 TB version from the train is the way to go if you plan on installing more than a dozen weighty games. According to office. sources, the latest series (CUH-1200) is less noisy, uses somewhat less power, and is more dependable than previous models. So, picking her is the better option. First and foremost, if only for the sake of native unique titles, Sony consoles are well worth the investment. And this is where Sony springs a surprise. Infamous: Second Son / First Light, The Order: 1886, Until Dawn, Killzone: Shadow Fall, Tearaway Unfolded, Bloodborne, and port versions of classic PS3 titles like Uncharted 1-3, The Last of Us, Heavy Rain, Beyond Two Souls, and Journey are all available now for your gaming pleasure. Uncharted 4, Horizon Zero Dawn, Detroit: Become Human, Ratchet & Clank, The Last Guardian, Rime, Wild, Dreams, Gravity Rush 2, and more are all in the works and coming soon. Given that the PlayStation 4 will "live" for at least another two or three years, Sony-backed game developers will very doubt continue to surprise us (PS4 customers) with other fresh and, surely, no less exciting projects in the future. The console itself has dropped to a very appealing pricing point. A PC with comparable power and features (based, say, on Intel Core i3-4160/GTX 750ti) will set you back about 60% more. However, new games require DX12 support, so you'll have to shell out for an Nvidia 900 series graphics card if you want to play them. A PlayStation 4 (for Sony exclusives) and a robust PC (for cross-platform and Microsoft exclusives like Recore, Quantum Break, etc.) are currently your best bets in the gaming world. However, there will be a high price to pay for such an interaction. Since both options are compromises, most users will have to settle for one or the other. Sony's exclusives and the ability to slouch in front of a large screen TV without a care in the world ended up being more useful to me.

Pros
  • Top-Notch Visuals in Developed-Exclusively-For Games; Stunning Portability; Streamlined Operation (albeit similar to the PS3); Beautiful, Compact Design; the new gamepad is more handy than the old one, with the sticks having a nice and informative shape and better responsiveness; the electricity consumption is minimal; the noise level is low (even if the game is on a disk, the disk rotates in the tray for just 15-20 seconds while the game is loading, and then silence); Quick wireless adaptor. The built-in speaker and diode create a unique effect, adding atmosphere to the game. The "sleep mode" feature allows for charging gamepads and game installation to take place while the system is inactive. In terms of use, the PS4 and the PS3 are essentially identical. Graphically, of course, and in terms of the gamepad's level of detail, the new system is just superior. On top of that, it's more cutting-edge technology-wise, letting you record video and take images (with a very intriguing photo mode) of your own journeys. A console is a console, right? The game is ready to play; I just popped in the disc (or downloaded it from the Store). Setting up visuals and worrying about reaching the desired number of frames per second are not issues. Since no consideration has been given to if, what, or when an upgrade should be made. Yes, all this hullabaloo about 30 vs. 60 frames per second is complete bullshit. Only in first-person shooters (which have never been a console genre because they are still sharpened by a mouse) is there any discernible difference, and even then it is negligible. In this case, it's obvious when the frame rate drops below 30 (though in practice, this happens infrequently). If the frame rate remains constant at 30 frames per second, there should be no issues with the gameplay. We owe a debt of gratitude to the game designers for making it so that, right out of the box, every game on the system runs at a smooth 30 frames per second. While there are always exceptions to any rule, fixes tend to resolve these sorts of issues rapidly.
Cons
  • The controller's battery isn't very powerful (it will last for about three days on the "dim" setting of the LEDs). Games are expensive; if you intend to purchase a large number of multiplatform games on the system, you should give serious consideration to purchasing a personal computer instead; nevertheless, in 2022, games on Steam are three times cheaper than those in the PlayStation Store. If you've been dying to get your hands on some cross-platform games, this is where you need to be. I would hold out until the games you want go on sale again (psprices(dot)com is a great tool for keeping tabs on the price fluctuations of games in the PS Store) or until reasonably priced secondhand discs become available. Remember that the volume of PSN traffic during game downloads is enormous. So, it's going to be tough unless you have an unrestricted, high-speed connection (at least 15-20 Mbps). Unfortunately, while the LED may be disabled, the speaker and vibration of the controller can't be. It would be great if Sony allowed for more customization in this area.
