Sony Playstation 4 sales start in the USA

Today at 9 am Moscow time, a celebration was held in New York about the start of sales of the new Sony Playstation 4 game console in the United States. During the event, the public was shown new trailers of already announced video games, and also presented a completely new game for PS4, which fans have been waiting for so long. But let's get everything in order.

At the very beginning, a short teaser for the new storyline add-on (DLC) was demonstrated for the sensational game The Last of Us, which will be called Left Behind and will be released in the coming months. The plot of the expansion will tell the background of the main game, when Ally was not yet familiar with Joel, and together with her friend Riley, at night, explored the deserted city of Boston.

After that, representatives of the studio Naughty Dog announced that they were ready to present their new game for the Playstation 4 to the public. It’s true, again, only in the form of a teaser, to stir up interest in it. Of course, this is the next part of the Uncharted series. Judging by the fact that we are shown a map of the seas, the plot will somehow affect the ancestor of the protagonist of the game - Sir Francis Drake, an English navigator and adventurer who lived in the XIV century. So far, almost nothing is known about the game, but the announcement alone was enough for the crowd to explode with applause. We will learn more about the game very soon, because in December the next award ceremony Video Game Awards (recently renamed VGX) will take place, during which numerous new games will be presented.

The representative of the studio Bungie, who presented us with a series of first-person shooters Halo, presented a new trailer for their new game Destiny, which is a role-playing shooter with a very developed online component. He also announced that the owners of the PS3 and PS4 consoles will be the first to receive exclusive access to the beta version of the game.

The new trailer of the game inFamous: Second Son under the powerful and elegant cover of the Nirvana Heart-Shaped Box, again made the crowd applaud. Finally, the official release date of the game was announced. It will appear on store shelves and in digital version on March 21, 2014.

Hideo Kojima, creator of the legendary stealth-action series of Metal Gear Solid games, announced that he will create a special mission exclusively for owners of Playstation consoles, which makes numerous references to the very first MGS game. The mission will be called Deja Vu and will be included in the set of the game Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes, which is a prequel to MGS5 and will be released in 2014 for the PS3 and PS4 consoles.

At the end of the event, two Sony executives, Andrew House and Jack Tretton, handed the Playstation 4 itself with their autographs to the first buyer, who stood in line for almost two days. The lucky owner of the first PS4 officially sold in the United States has admitted to journalists that he will now come home and will not immediately play the new console, but will simply fall asleep. The rest of the people in the accumulated giant queue were also offered to purchase a new Sony console, as well as games and accessories for it.

Today, by the way, the official instruction on using the new PS4 game console has become available on the Sony website. From this manual you can learn a lot of interesting information. For example, using voice commands you can take screenshots in games, log in with your account, turn off the console and so on. In order to activate voice input, you just need to say out loud the word Playstation, after which the console will wait for your command for 10 seconds.
