(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Ah, PS4. Talk has been raging on for years now, actually many thought Sony would abandon PS3 because of what they perceived to be its many failings and rush unto the next. Well that’s not the case, but that doesn’t mean the hardware giant isn’t already thinking of its next-gen system. Surely you’ve heard of the many rumors claiming that Sony has already settled on the specs of PS4?

Well we don’t have anything concrete yet, but this is taken from an interview speaking to PlayStation: The Official Magazine, Sony fan and freelance designer Tai Chiem, who’s drawn some awesome looking prototypes of what PS4 could look like, including some of the specs, divulged his reasons for doing so.

“I wanted it to look like something Sony would design.”

His prototype design is far reaching and extremely technical, so can these lofty visions be realized? Chiem thinks it’s not even a question of if, but rather when.

“Flexible touchscreen technology is currently being developed, so it’s definitely a possibility,” he continued. “I have seen companies such as Samsung developing transparent screens. While it’s costs prohibitive to have these features at the moment, I think it would be feasible in the next five to ten years.”

I can totally see them incorporating ALOT of design into motion controllers for the next-gen system/games. Both PS3 and Xbox 360 are working on it for the current systems, but I bet it will be a big thing on the next gen systems. I can't wait till Sony's next-gen comes out! I'm just hoping it doesn't cost $1,500...

And Lol @ the controller pic! It has an infinity button. That would be an insane controller! A gazillion buttons. Happy

what if sony suspends ps4 for an extended period of time? think about it, sony hasnt made a profit from the ps3 yet, and even with the slim, they still take a loss, a smaller one, but still a loss, and touch screen technology would require a certain kind of tv, u cant have a program that allows it and expect to run it on any tv...by then, maybe most will have that kind of technology in their tvs tho...i hope for the best
