No way is the Vita's UI carrying over to the PS4. Vita's OS has been designed primarily around touch input. As for the bubbles, it is a result of Sony's shitty attempt at adding their own flavor over traditional iPhone like icons.

Your avatar is amazing.
I hope so. The XMB was fast and functional. Some of the options menu stuff could be improved but finding a game was very easy.

Come on Sony. Crossplay with Vita on all games. Do it and conquer the world.

Anyone expecting a software blowout is going to be disappointed, I think. This is not the proper avenue for Sony to blow their load. I'm sure they'll show some games, but do not expect anything remotely on the level of an E3 conference.

Agreed. I'm actually really interested in the OS and integrated services/systems now as well. It'll be interesting how much of that they are going to show. I'd imagine that the system software would still be in an early stage of completion at best.
My reason for thinking of this originally was due to the inclusion of the touch interface on the DS4. It could perceivably be used to interact with the UI in a similar way to the Vita's. Hopefully you're right.

don't count them, the wait feels longer that way T_T
quoted for size...
I'm crying.
Thanks. I love watching older stuff like this. Really takes me back.
Thank fuck I've got Rising to tear into after work today.
I'm also at the point where I don't want anything to leak from the event. It's so close at this point I'd rather just be surprised. I feel like I have realistic expectations (not expecting Versus or TLG or anything like that) and I'm looking forward to seeing it. It's been too long since we've had an exciting console reveal.

So much awesome. It'd be great if there were some easter eggs in the PS4 dash (like the PS2 cubes/towers relating to the amount of saves on your memory card).

I have the feeling that the new ps4 interface will look like the ps3 playstation store.
Meaningless words for Sony..maybe.
I feel that at a minimum they have to do enough to pre-empt Microsoft's announcement which I assume will follow shortly in a few weeks or months?
Plus as another poster pointed out, Sony has the entire gaming world zoomed in on them right now. They have the floor completely to themselves and don't have to share the stage with anyone like they will at E3. They'd be stupid not to take full advantage of it.
I think it's certainly a balancing act for Sony because they need to show enough to build momentum and buzz up to and through Microsoft's reveal but not reveal enough that they have nothing new and awe inducing for E3 to continue that hype and momentum until launch.

With 3/4 times as many attendees compared to a E3 conference I expect more than just 1 person representing S-E.
So far it's just one that we know of.

Please do. I would like to keep my event spoiler free.

Lets hope its faster, its piss slow on PS3.
We need some grade A mod abuse in the OP.
Straight link to an archive of the stream hopefully with no related thumbnails spoiling like every bullet point/game reveal a la YouTube.
Hey guys, remember the "bit wars" from the late-eighties / early-nineties? For example, the Nintendo Entertainment System was 8-bit, the Super NES was 16-bit, and so on and so forth.
I can't believe tomorrow will be the unveiling of the first 512-bit system. Very exciting times indeed.

Yours is too, I love Media Molecule to death! I bought a PS3 to play LittleBigPlanet and I'm planning on getting a Vita to play Tearaway.
I really hope they show up and unveil a new PS4 IP tomorrow!
Someone do this please.
Yes but, has anyone ever come back?

It could work a lot faster as an interface, no need to get the dynamic background and animations at each connection/page.
While i like the ides i think i rather have a clean and classy/add free interface as the XMB.
I really liked the 'clingyding' sound of the PS3 at game boot up,now removed sadly.
Keep it real simple. No fluff.

A spoiler free thread would be pretty impossible guys. You should just have your stream loaded up and pause it. I would stay off gaf though

especially with news popping up a new thread will happen.

I'm puzzled as to what spoilers you guys are talking about lol?
Uh, why? I bookmark or homepage the spoiler free thread, get home, hit a hopefully revelant to my interest link in the OP and boom! Kick back time.
Only hazard could be PS4/Event related avas in that thread, but I shouldn't have to scroll past the first post if things are handled correctly.

That would be in poor taste.
Me too, maybe no one wants to know what happens during the live stream I guess??
