Playstation 4 owners will have "great surprises" in 2014, says Sony

4.5
Playstation UK Managing Director Fergal Gara said a number of "gems" will be released on the next generation console in 2014 that will "push the boundaries".

He also revealed it will take "a couple of months" for supply levels to be able to meet demand for the console which is sold out at many retailers.

Speaking exclusively to the Express Online, Mr Gara said: "All of our major studios are working on PS4 content. These guys are experimenting with and working on the new platform.

"They may not have announced games specifically but our big studio network is focused primarily on PS4.

"Their heritage is fantastic and it is a great platform to develop for. So I am looking forward to some great surprises and amazing experiences.

"There are going to be some real gems."

Mr Gara pinpointed racing game Drive Club, action adventure inFAMOUS Second Son and shooter The Order 1886 as titles for gamers to look forward to in 2014.

He also said the eagerly anticipated sandbox game Watch Dogs and Destiny, from the creators of Halo, as games that will showcase the power of next generation consoles.

He said: "Two titles which will define what next generation gaming will look in its mature phase will be Watch Dogs and Destiny.

"These are two games we have aligned with closely and will have substantial exclusive Playstation 4 content."

A new Unchartered title has been announced recently and Mr Gara said that would be a "big" game for PS4 owners to look forward to.

The latest chapter in the best selling action series has yet to receive a release date.

The PS4 launched in the UK and went onto becoming the fastest selling console in history.

Two days after its European launch on Friday November 29 it was revealed the console had sold 2.1 million units worldwide.

Mr Gara said it was frustrating for consumers that it is difficult to get hold of a PS4 at the moment but Sony were "delighted" with the console's success.

Mr Gara added PS4 owners will see titles released next year that truly show the graphical power of the next generation console.

He said: "Gamers can look forward to seeing publishers really push the boundaries of what this great machine can do.

"Really stretching the technology a lot more than we have already seen."

VPN Well we PS4 gamers have something to look forward, yet Xbox fans don't know what's coming up.


All Xbox fans are going to say is "Titan Fall" And "Cloud Computing" If the cloud is so powerful how come Deadrising 3 can only achieve 24 struggle frames.


Titanfall, Quantum Break, Sunset Overdrive, Project Spark, Dark Dreams Don't Die, Halo.

I think the Xbox One has plenty of fantastic exclusives coming up in 2014 and that's not adding the third party games available as well.

Azure's power hasn't been shown yet. You can't seriously expect full capabilities on day one. Dead Rising 3 received a day one patch to correct those frame rate issues. If you would've experienced the game instead of just believing every thing you read on the internet, you would realize that is not the case.

Call of Duty: Ghosts was having frame rate issues on the PlayStation 4 and running at 720p before it got patched. See the picture here?


Ghosts is still having frame drops on PS4, complete sh!t game. BF4 is where its at. Graphics on PS4 are better than XbOne but some people prefer XbOne because they've had an Xbox 360 for years and can't switch fan base.


I don't really compare Call of Duty: Ghosts to Battlefield 4, because even though they are military shooters they play differently. It's like comparing a RPG to a MMORPG. While I would never recommend Battlefield over Call of Duty on the last generation consoles due to the outdated hardware. PlayStation 4/Xbox One/PC Battlefield is a lot more fun to play.

I had the PlayStation 4 version of Battlefield 4 and I ended up switching it for the Xbox One version, because even though the DualShock 4 is a fantastic improvement over the DualShock 3 the triggers don't feel right and the rumble feedback and the bigger triggers offered by the Xbox One controller makes the experience even better in my opinion.

We'll see. I might play the games at my friends house.

Fiji Looks good can't wait for more feature should bring bsck old cods


I agree with you on that, they should bring back MW, WAW, MW2, etc. That would be insane if they brought them to the PS4, and Xbox One.

WeAreAnonym0us I wish I had the ps4 also, currently have the Xbone and am pleased with what I got. Just wish I could try out the ps4 for a month or so to see which one I like better.


If you have any video game store near you, they maybe renting the consoles out to people. I know I used to have a video game store near by my place and you could rent consoles


I would love to rent the Xbox One out, to see if I like it. I wanna get it, here within the next year or so. But, I would love to rent one out, and try it out before I choose whether or not to buy it!

Yet the PS4 is out selling xbox by 2-1. All my friends who got one for christmas put theirs up and went back to playing GTA online.


As of now, the sales are the same and since the Xbox One is more than the PS4, the Xbox One has won in who has the most money.

2.8 mil with ps4 up and 2.1m with xbox one is second. Definitely no where close to the same. a later post on here stating that it cost 471 dollar for microsoft to make the xbox one mainly because the kinnect camera is worth as much, or more than the console that is where much their funding went to was the advance UI in the camera. the dang thing can sense what muscles you are flexing for crying out loud. its insane
