Bring you PS4 to Barnes and Noble xD And yeah it sux especilly if games are at 30G unless you have a big limit (or none like Europeans).

i know that I was hoping/thinking that the dl authorized through her phone would be determined where the connection was made i.e. home internet or a bar.

Cross game chat and other media functions won’t require the subscription. This includes services like Netflix.
Games will be added and removed just like the current subscription on PS3 and you will be getting one new PS4 game every month. It’s not clear whether it would be a PS Plus edition like DriveClub which has altered content.
The subscription isn’t required for automatic updates. It will cost $50 or $5 per month. It’s something you pay for PS Plus already on PS3 so it really isn’t a surprise.

I'm assuming they've not said anything about it so far, but does anyone know if the PS4 Playstation store (or whatever they call it now) will be region specific? I know the console isn't, same as the PS3, but the store had different games based on the region. Will this be the same?

The ps4 has no regions.

No region lock at all, but to be fair I believe Microsoft has reverted their region locking policy too.

They have but they still won't be selling the xbox in countries other than those initial 21.

Word is coming out now that Uncharted 4 is definitely on the way and is now one of the worst kept secrets yet to be unveiled for PS4.
Hopefully Naughty Dog adds some new gameplay elements to it, so that's its not just another Uncharted 1-3 refurbished into a different environment. I loved Uncharted on PS3, but that IP needs some new blood in terms of gameplay.

Calling it right now we will see a PS4 + Vita bundle real soon.
For Gara Remote Play, “changes the story”. With the PlayStation 3 the message was that, “PS Vita was a PS3 in your pocket”, and while he admits there was, “a certain amount of truth in that,” it was more down to, “the graphical resolution and the power of the experience,” of the Vita. Now, the idea that it’s a PS4 in your pocket Gara says is, “a far more literal and correct terminology because you can play what we expect to be the vast majority of PS4 games quickly and easily enabled for PS Vita”.

Had a quick look at the Vita site. Does it come with internal storage for games? Guessing it's the Vita card thing, but the site doesn't seem to specify.
Seems like a pretty cool thingy though.

Wasn't the ability to play PS$ games on the Vita more of like the Wii U still being on but streaming it to your Vita? OR maybe something via Gaikai?
I am doubtful it would be actually be able to install ps4 games onto the vita as the specs disparity alone should be a crutch.
My two cents.

Ouch, i didn't thought this would be so expensive I was thinking to go back to owning a console (because i miss final fantasy like and gran turismo) and my GF have a Ps3.. but ... GOD ! That's like a medium computer price !
I think i'm going to buy it when it's 200€... (or $ because it's region free :p).
I heard Xone is even pricier but how much ? Do we know ?

Well nice to see that my vita purchase might eventually pay off thanks to PS4 synergy, it's a nice piece of hardware but there's just no games for it unless if I want to play remakes/PSP/PS1 games but Vita's a waste for that.
Also I would have preferred more new IP's from Naughty Dog like The Last of Us rather than yet another Uncharted.

Around 100$ I believe.

Wow that's expensive

Yeah, I am actually happy with the whole PS+ network as a whole and their integration. Sony's online may not be the best or have as many users as Microsoft but I think if they are pushed hard enough, and with the social aspect, it will improve quite a bit. I do not own a vita but I still think it is pretty awesome.
But still, I feel bad for those overseas and the cost of the consoles. Especially the Aussies, that really sucks.

Alan Kertz, the lead core gameplay designer at DICE for Battlefield 4, has revealed that the PS4 version of the game will "likely" use the L2 and R2 buttons for aiming and shooting as they are "so much improved" over the PS3's triggers.
Shooters on PS3 usually default aiming and shooting to the L1 and R1 bumper buttons on the DUALSHOCK 3 due to the fact that many players feel their fingers slip off the controller's triggers although players can often change the control options if they wish - it's not clear if gamers will be able to alter the controller configuration in Battlefield 4.
However, it appears that Sony has taken complaints about their controller seriously and have made significant improvements.
Other changes made for the DUALSHOCK 4 include moving L3 and R3, the sticks, further apart to prevent people's thumbs hitting off each other and of course the sensor light bar which will have different functions based on each game. As part of the changes the Select and Start buttons have been replaced by Share and Options.
The DUALSHOCK 4 will also include an inbuilt speaker.

Yeah, I've heard great things about the new DS.
http://www.penny-arcade.com/report/article/the-playstation-4-conroller-is-just-slightly-better-than-the-best-thing-eve
So that's the breakdown of things, but everything taken as a whole has created a controller that feels almost stupidly great in my hands. Yesterday I felt my next child move for the first time. I felt her tiny feet kick through my wife's belly, my hand finally being given its first tactile evidence that my child is alive and healthy. That experience was several steps higher than feeling the PlayStation 4 controller for the first time but, damnit, they were closer than I'm comfortable admitting.

"I’m sure you heard from [SCE Worldwide Studios boss] Shu [Yoshida] that he has—just his studios—he has 30 games in development. 20 of them are going to ship within the first year of the console’s life, and of those, 12 are new IP.
"So there’s a lot going on, it’s just that we need to keep stuff back. We’ve got Gamescom for us Europeans—we need to have something to show at Gamescom, don’t we?"
