EA's CTO calls PS4 a 'gigantic leap for the industry'

4.6
Sony's recently unveiled PlayStation 4 is a "gigantic leap for the industry," Electronic Arts chief technical officer Rajat Taneja says, delivering "eight to ten times the power" of the current generation.

We no longer have to constrain our games or ration computer graphics, memory or bandwidth. We can let the games really flourish in 1080p, 60 frames a second" on PS4, presenting "a level of gameplay experience that is unprecedented."

"We are excited about Sony's news and the launch of the next-gen of consoles. At EA, we have never been as prepared or more ready for the start of a new console."

Taneja said that the PS4's standard PC components ensure that EA's Frostbite engine, its software libraries and tools will run "very smoothly."

"What used to take months in the past will now take days to do," he said.

With the PS4's adoption of social gaming, Taneja said, "We are seeing new ways to approach our IPs like Battlefield and FIFA, and we're already beginning to use these learnings on new IPs that we are building for this console generation."

Emazing-Lights It'll probably be 2 months or more after the release for me to decide to buy the console.

And what is to happen, when by the end of this year, 4k resolution technology is available to the public for the average cost of a television? Will this console be able to handle 4k resolution? Or will it require a refreshed model another year from now?

Teh yea ps4 is prob going to be better,


I agree, but I don't plan on getting either.


I'm still for the 720.


i doubt i'll get either, perfectly fine with the ps3 and 360.


Yeah, I'm fine with my 360. No new consoles for me.


I WOULD stay with my 360, but just think for a moment. What about all of the new blockbuster releases coming out on next-gens, sorry but there's no way I'm missing out on any of them.
