Mister Jack Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Developers will be able to disable the share button. Disappointing, if predictable. Why would they want to? It's free publicity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 idk, but they do the same thing on Vita sometimes with the screenshot. Usually it's just for specific parts of the game, rather than the whole game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleven Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Yes! Very dissapointing! Though I guess it's not as bad as the PS3 screenshot (or video?) functionality, remote play functionality, background music functionality, etc where it's there, but you have to code it in. At least, based on what I've read they have to disable it. Which is a conscious decision they'd have to make. If they say that by default, this is OFF, then that's a huge problem. If the default is ON, it's not that bad, I guess. I'd hate this to be another of PS' functionality go to waste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Saying they can disable it implies that it's on by default. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted May 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Yeah I'd noted when Vita came out it sucked that some sections of the game can be disabled from being shared. I can see sort of why they might not want it, spoiling sections and such. But just include a spoiler option like what Steam has to black out bits. If you're the game that stops you from sharing then it's the game that has no such restrictions that gets shared more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFlyingGerbil Posted May 13, 2013 Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 if that is what it actually looks like I'd be tempted not to wait for the slim as it is super george. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot Heart Posted May 13, 2013 Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 Weren't we all aware it's a fake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waldorf and Statler Posted May 13, 2013 Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 yeah it's confirmed to be fake. I don't think revealing the console on a random ad would be smart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiShinobi Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Glad it's fake... that kinda sucked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFlyingGerbil Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 (edited) this is an official video: I know it's a teaser but if they used an actual PS4 it looks like a cube? edit: also, the e3 conference is 6pm PDT on 10 June. That makes it 2am british time! I don't see why they couldn't put it on in the afternoon so we could see it over here live at 10pm or even 11/midnight.

TheMightyEthan Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 I just figured it was seen side-on, thuswise: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiblesse Des Sens Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 I know it's a teaser but if they used an actual PS4 it looks like a cube? The PS3 slim is a square when looked at from above. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCP Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 (edited) 6pm start works good. That's only 9pm in the east coast, and the west coasters will be off school/work. I'm surprised with the internet commenters who feel Sony should have showed the console in that video. They won't reveal the design for the PS4 in a YouTube video people, it's a teaser trailer to remind everyone when the press conference is.

Faiblesse Des Sens Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 Aren't all of the press conferences in one day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 Yeah, typically all the E3 press conferences are the day before E3. Funny how that works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRevanchist Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 You don't want a nosey reporter on the floor the day the event opens revealing your big surprise. You want to present it in the best possible light, so it makes sense to have the big unveiling before the event takes place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 I figured it was just them all wanting to be the first one, but not really being able to move too much farther up and still call it an E3 event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waldorf and Statler Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 All of you are still talking about the PS4 and nextbox? Are you all retarded or just behind on times? DIDN'T YOU HEAR?! THE OUYA WILL BE IN E3 [parking lot]! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thursday Next Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 6pm start works good. That's only 9pm in the east coast, and the west coasters will be off school/work. I'm surprised with the internet commenters who feel Sony should have showed the console in that video. They won't reveal the design for the PS4 in a YouTube video people, it's a teaser trailer to remind everyone when the press conference is. 16:00 would be a better start from a global perspective. West coasters will not be off work much before 17:00 / 17:30 and it will take time to get home, get settled, get logged in to a working stream etc. so not exactly super convenient for them. East Coasters would be fine with a 19:00 and Europe could handle the midnight slot. Oh well, I'll just have to watch a repeat at some point the next day. At least it won't be as patchy as the stream inevitably will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. GOH! Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Has Sony announced its DRM/required online connectivity yet? Just want a point-by-point comparison with what we know about DRM/restrictive online requirements between the PS4 and Xbox One. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Sony has confirmed that an online connection is not required to play your games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
