Game updates are fine... heck, if the sold you a broken product, the least they could do is fix it. After all, you paid good money for it.

The nickel and diming is the BS part. The sell you a game full-price (and some are ing overpriced at that, I could probably count with one hand games worth that much the past year alone) that has half of the game content stripped out for the privilege to pay extra to get that other half. It's their way to stick it to the used games market.

0-day DLC

Anyways, I won't buy any console that blocks me from playing used games. I have my standards.

What you see above is the next PlayStation's controller, at least in some version of prototype, seemingly connected to a development unit for the next PlayStation (codenamed "Orbis"). The image popped up on Destructoid a few hours ago -- we've spoken with development sources who confirmed it to be a recent version of the next PlayStation's controller and a beta unit of the dev kit, though it's not clear how much the pictured controller will match up with the final product (and the console will assuredly look quite different from the dev unit). Sony's expected to show the PlayStation 3's successor at a New York City event next Wednesday, February 20th, wherein a new version of the company's classic DualShock controller is expected to be unveiled.

Corroborating reports, the pictured controller features a rectangular touchpad in between the standard d-pad and four-button setup, though it's missing the rumored Share button. It's also unclear if the blue light seen atop the controller serves a function -- a stand-in for Move support, perhaps? -- and our sources were unable to clarify. What looks like a speaker grill can be spotted just above a newly lowered PlayStation button, which seems to indicate some form of Wiimote-esque sound functionality built into the controller.

Update: A Sony rep tells us, "We can't comment on rumors or speculation."

The live press conference starts today at 5 PM CST. Seems like joystiq is going to carry it as well as some other so here it is, if you're interested:

If anyone's interested, this stream is working better than the Joystiq stream posted earlier.

The graphical beauty of this Killzone demo would be a lot more impressive if it weren't showcasing a franchise and genre of which I'm already bored to death.

[NASpurs]

The Last Guardian, do it Sony. Show it to me.

Ditto, I seriously can't remember the last FPS game I played. It was probably Portal if I remember correctly but even that was more of a FPS puzzle game.

They can't show you a game that is obviously dead.

[MannyIsGod]

FPS games sell more than any other type of game out there. Thats why they're showing it. I never bothered with Killzone 3. I'm excited for some more infamous though.

You hush your liar mouth.

[apalisoc_9]

This is how old games are going to die out. Majority of the games now are FPS with beat down formulas..I can't even tell the difference between Killzone, Halo, COD, Insert another FPS game.

I feel pretty 'meh' about the upcoming generation of consoles based on that press conference. The jump from PS3 to PS4 looks incredibly incremental. I was hoping for something to genuinely impress me. Watch Dogs looks cool. A number of those games and tech demos looked fine and well, but nothing felt future proofed for another five to eight year cycle.

Agree.

A couple of those games announced are planning on releasing games cross-generation. If the big games are avaialabe on the PS3 i really dont see any reason why i should be purchasing a ps4.

Plus the difference graphics was hardly noticeable IMO.

[Reck]

The controller looks lame as .

Where they aiming at something like they dreamcast controller with the visual memory card thing? If so they massively fail.

I'm sticking with the PS3 until they cease production.

[CuckingFunt]

Until there is an exclusive game that I absolutely can't live without, I won't even consider upgrading.
