Reading more and more about the capabilities is making me impatient. There are so many new features. Some of them I find completely unnecessary, yet convenient, like the nifty new feature that makes the multiplayer switch sides when players sit on different sides of each other.
I heard lots of things concerning old games for the PS1-3. I just hope if anything, it has PS2 or 3 disc playing capabilities, or at least a cloud to repurchase games from. I think an iTunes Library style PS4 cloud would be really neat. Buy the game once on your account, play it anywhere you log in! Rent games you don't feel like putting down the full price for.
As I preordered, a poster proudly announced Dynasty warriors 8 is being released in English sometime within the next month or so... For the PS3. It'd be rather pointless to release a great, finally-becoming-popular game on a soon-to-be outdated console, wouldn't it?
Other than these concerns, I can't help but notice that Sony completely pulled a Kanye West on XBox One. Seems I'm not the only one who thinks so:

Dynasty Warriors / 戦国無双
Am I really going to have to preorder a PS4 after all? I haven't played Dynasty Warriors in years-- four years, to be exact-- but I'm being sucked right back in thanks to all the uproar about Shin Sangoku Musou 8 (Dynasty Warriors) being released in Japan. Since Dynasty Warriors 5, the character designs are becoming more and more elaborate and seem to be catering to RPG fans. I don't know exactly when, but somewhere between 5 and 8, KOEI injected the characters with their own personalities, deeming qualities, and grievances. Whereas I used to view each character simply as a different set of stats and fighting rotations, I can honestly say they have become fleshed-out characters. Heck, I even get a little upset when some of them die in the storyline except Xu Zhu.
I am really disappointed to see that Sun Shang Xiang has turned into a moeblob fairy and is still referred to as a tomboy. I think she's too similar to Xiaoqiao (whose name is now apparently one word), and I find her English voice to be hard on the ears. I miss the days when her method of madness was to kick ass using two trash can lids chakrams.
All in all, the big picture still looks great and I truly believe I may buy a PS4 just to see some of these characters in action! I really would like to play as the new characters I've missed since DW5. I can't believe I never got the chance to play as the most popular character!
