Giant Bomb Stream here

Short version so far:

-Controller has a touchpad on it.
-x86 architecture
-8gb unified GDDR5 RAM (so the leaked specs were BS likely)
-Built in gaming streaming/recording ability (update: Guess this can be done at any time via a literal dedicated "share" button on the controller.)
-All that usual "AND YOU CAN WITH YOUR FRIENDS AND ENEMIES, IT HAS WEBS, AND ON TABLETS" shit.

So yeah it's pretty much a PC. No physical hardware shown yet, and the only game shown so far is a kinda lame looking Pixar/Dreamworks style action/platformer thing called Knatch where you play a weird thing that's basically a cloud of parts to show off the *~particle effects~* the PS4 can do.

So far this has been terribly painful and awkward, and I have no hate for Sony.  The Gaikai integration for demos so far has been the only interesting part.

Drink everytime someone says "the cloud"

spoilers: you'll die

Also they're trying to repush the Vita as the best alternative controller for the PS4. Yeah no thanks Sony I'm not buying a Vita.

The dedicated chip for upload/download is a good idea, but yeah - nothing really revolutionary so far.

8 gig of DDR5 ram blows the current known Durango specs out of the water in a significant way. That's a lot more than expected, and will be interesting to see how Microsoft responds and how it affects pricing.

I'm legit kinda liking the streaming thing, and 8gb of RAM pretty much addresses the #1 complaint devs have had about almost every console ever. But ugggh this stream is horrible.

Honestly, if Gaikai is actually viable, and actually reasonably well for their backwards compatability more or less forever across all platforms, I'm down.  It's more or less what I've been using Steam for on PC's anyhow.  It's nice that consoles might finally be catching up.

Based on the specs I've seen, it's internally equivalent to the middle-of-the-road PC I bought in 2009.  Ohhhhh, I see.
