lol, way to completely undermine the utility of something being advertised as one of the ps4's biggest new features

i wonder if youtube wanted something out of the deal lol

also, this is the only footage of any next-gen content that i have genuinely found impressive yet:

Oh boy I can't wait to buy a box

well, it's not like the ps4 isn't pretty much exactly as bad:

without the patch, the disc drive (among a number of other features) is disabled, thus rendering disc-based gaming impossible

now that's pathetic

i wonder why these items were unable to be enabled with the units that are being sold at launch.  it really does cause the mind to boggle.  you'd think 'disc drive and game play should be priority number one with the base firmware'

These people really shouldn't have released consoles this year

[Kalahari Inkantation]

That's been Boyah's official position for years.  Alas, no one ever listens to us.

seriously

i can only imagine that it was an intentional decision designed to give sony more direct control over whether or not the consumer updates soon after launch

I don't doubt the reasoning is something like "We know we won't have a fully-working and fully-tested OS by the time we start manufacturing these systems, so let's rely on updates to give us more time to work on it. We can just require customers to update the system after its launch by shipping an OS that can't do anything else but update."
