Yes I think it will IMO, once I get the PS4 and if I get it, I will be able to start my future YouTube career :D

Anyway, I think the SHARE button is a great addition to that sexy beast controller. I will definetly change gaming in the long run. It even help developers as well

cayleee4806d ago (Edited 4806d ago )

Hell yea share button will be awesome man. Once i get the DS4 for my PC.

Ill hotkey the share button to my favorite porn site.

Lol people disagreeing i wont be doing that :P

FlameBaitGod4806d ago

People didn't get ur sarcasm

cayleee4806d ago

I wasnt being sarcastic :p

I really will do it. Having a share button as a shortcut to my fav porn is priceless good job Sony for once.

MaxXAttaxX4806d ago

The Share and Options button replace the Select and Start button. Meaning you could have done this with any other controller that has a Select and Start button and your comment is pointless.

Please stay away from PS4 articles. You PC fans have been trolling nonstop.

colonel1794806d ago

If they do it right and deliver on their promises along the way, yes. Otherwise, no.

Droidbro4806d ago

No, it won't. The share button is what you call a gimmick. Just look at the HTC Facebook phone that came out awhile back. That had a Facebook button that was used to share stuff faster. Don't remember that being revolutionary.

HiddenMission4805d ago

Yeah i dont think you really are a core gamer who is part of gaming culture or communities.

Here is why Youtube lets plays and live streaming gaming is huge and a multimillion dollar generating business. The issue though has always been you need a pc, capture device, camera, editing software and most importantly time to do everything.

With the PS4 all this changes with a press of a button...and its that simple. Being able to share content and connect with other gamers will be more accessable than ever before.

You calling it a gimmick shows your own ignorance on the subject matter.

boing14805d ago (Edited 4805d ago )

Yes, it will. Can't talk much about it but PlayStation gamers are in for a treat.

Navick4805d ago

Droid... What r u smokin? How are u comparing a phone that is competing with dozens of other phones to a system that will be 1 of 3? That's your first mistake. Your second mistake is comparing a share button on a phone, which allows you to access something (Facebook) that can already be accessed with ease on almost every phone on the market to a share button on a console, which allows you to do something that has never been done on a console b4.... Share your glory, glitches, downfall and best/worst moments with not only your friends but the world. Again, what are you smoking?

Droidbro4803d ago

@hiddenmission
So you're saying the only core gamers are the fraction of a percent who post videos on youtube? The people who do that don't do it because they're core gamers, they do it for money. I'm not saying it's not cool, it's just not going to change online gaming significantly. This is the same reason the kinect is a gimmick. It has cool uses (UI control, video chat) but I never use it for playing games.

Anyone of you guys know if u can browse the internet without having to go to the dashboard on PS4??

DFresh4805d ago

You Tube is not stable and won't be around forever.
Get a Career and do the You Tube thing as a hobby because trust me that stuff won't last.

avengers19784805d ago

Please share responsible... I can't wait to get my hands on the PS4 and KZSF but I will only share awesome stuff... And I hope others do the same... I don't want to see your mediocre gaming skills or accomplishments... Just keep in mind everything you do is not epic.
I hope psn account and plus account transfer over to PS4

The share button has the potential to be revolutionary.

It's innovation through convenience, something that has made Apple very rich indeed. I can see it becoming a staple for all consoles from here on out.

Snookies124806d ago

My thoughts exactly, it's so simple, yet so revolutionary. I've wanted this since I saw that the PS3 version of Just Cause 2 had an auto-record setting for videos. It's like that, but for every game... That makes me extremely happy. :]

GribbleGrunger4806d ago (Edited 4806d ago )

The promotional aspects of the 'share' button shouldn't be underestimated either. And of course, aspiring TV presenters can 'cut their teeth' with the feature too.

chaos-lockheart4806d ago

No it is not revolutionary, it's Legend Wait for it.....DARY!!!

KingKelloggTheWH4806d ago

I don't know if I'll use it,but I know we will be getting thousands of new "lets play" videos.

chaos-lockheart4806d ago

lol, I'm sure your itchy fingers will press it a few times.

KingKelloggTheWH4806d ago

probably XD
I do love screen caps

andrewer4806d ago

Prepare for that fanboy wave of disagrees my son...
Btw, lol yeah

LackTrue4K4806d ago

just like in real life, people that don't share don't have friends.

Letros4806d ago

That was the best you could come up with?

clintos594806d ago (Edited 4806d ago )

Never seen anything like it before so yes it has potential to be revolutionary. Innovative written all over that 1 button. Going to be an awesome feat for the ps4. Cant wait to see more at e3.

NO, that can't be... No! I can't... Really?/s

Cacabunga40d ago

They for sure chose the worst way to deal with it

-Foxtrot39d ago

Funny considering Bruce left half way through development and now we get told there was an internal conflict with the story direction.

Makes you think…

HectixRose40d ago

I think it was good decision, if he was still alive, he would have been a mascot just like Kratos, drake and many others. These old dudes gotta die for new characters to take center stage with their own storyline. They keep dragging the emotional baggage into many sequels and eventually the story just turns into absolute shit show.

JEECE40d ago

It was ironic because people complained heavily about the story in the Uncharted games not having sufficient stakes because all the key characters always survived, despite the dangerous situations they were always in. Then ND killed a character in a more serious series and everyone lost their minds. Just shows that people don't always really want the thing they say they want.

CantThinkOfAUsername39d ago

I thought the more common complaint about Uncharted franchise was how the main cast are the good guys acting so nonchalantly while killing hundreds in cold blood (aka the dissonance between gameplay and story cutscenes). They just did it again in Part II.

Soy40d ago

Didn't have to kill him. Just have them part ways or Joel can "retire," whatever.

DarXyde40d ago

I don't think he would necessarily need to become a mascot (and besides, technically, I'd say Ellie is... So regardless, someone was going to be).

From a narrative perspective, I do think it has a similar effect to Ricky dying in Boyz N Da Hood: very likeable character, and you're really motivated to see the get back—in this case, it's more intense because it's an interactive experience. Most people hated Abby, but I get what they were after with portraying the cycle of violence and revenge—unfortunately, the game appears to want to take the side of the bad people.

But I will say that if Joel survived, it does become harder to tell an interesting story. What COULD have happened is an exploration into the rift between Joel and Ellie after the trolley dilemma events of the first game. It could have been interesting to see Abby out for revenge at the same time Ellie hated Joel.

Ashunderfire8640d ago

Sorry just had to say this lol! RICKYYYY!

Man Cuba Gooding Jr was miscast in that movie, but that part was cringey it was sad and funny at the same time man.

Ashunderfire8640d ago (Edited 40d ago )

I understand but the way they went about killing Joel, was poorly executed. Even the show of the Last of Us games tried to improved it, but it was just as bad. Well at least Joel got to know the reason why he had to die, before the death happened in the show. That part gave us the full context, but the game just let it happen with no pay off.

Joel death should have been a midway thing through the story, so we at least get to play him a little more with Ellie. Abby didn’t need to be this Hulk looking woman, but more like the show Abby which is a beater idea in my opinion.

The only ND game that was so disappointing to me I couldn't finish it.

pwnmaster300040d ago

Honestly as much as I loved the game, they could have just not killed him off.
I get it creator vision and all but killing a character that made you millions is just wrong imo. At least have him go down fighting.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle40d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7740d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
