Sticks and stones may break my bones, but swords and chains excite me. Should you climb the towers in Xseed's JRPG/adventure hybrid to save your cursed (and tragically whiny) girlfriend?

PlayStation 4 Reportedly Uses Gaikai, New Social Features

Posted on Thursday, February 7 @ 12:49:15 Eastern by Alex_Osborn


The torrent of next-gen-related reports continue, this time from Japanese newspaper Nikkei, which claims that the PlayStation 4 will in fact utilize Sony's recently acquired cloud gaming service, Gaikai.

The outlet doesn't specify how we'll see it implemented; however, the claims don't end there, as the console is said to feature expanded social options, including the ability to share opinions with your friends while gaming. Sounds an awful lot like Nintendo's Miiverse, no?

And as expected, the PS4 allegedly won't have a "Cell" chip (duh) and will be out sometime this holiday season (duh again). These sound like safe bets to me. What do you think? Could these reports prove to be true? Continue the conversation in the comments below.

    All sounds good to me. As long as a constant connection to the Internet isn't a new trend with gaming, I'm happy (I don't live in a good area and my Internet drops out constantly). If Microsoft go ahead with the always online thing, I'm gonna be mighty pissed off, I might as well not even get a Durango or whatever the **** they're calling it
