G25 bad ass bit of kit love mine.
There maybe someone release an inline box of tricks to emulate the thrustmaster.
However the 1000 odd quid fanatec rig will be needing a new race rim which will be another 2 or 3 hundred quid when released if ever to work on ps4
As for thrustmaster ts-300 and ts-80 are the official ps4 one don't know if the 500 is confirmed as working have u seen the 300 absolute garbage the pedals r so poor and don't think there's clutch and manual box support either and don't even get me started on the 80 that's the cheapest nastiest plastic Kiddy toy ever

Sony just announced these nifty little accessories for the PS4

1) Xperia z3 compact 8" tablet

An 8" tablet which mounts onto the PS4 controller.



2) Playstation TV

Allows you to stream your PS4 to a TV which your PS4 isn't connected to. ie the TV in your kitchen or bedroom.

The tablet option is interesting me the most because it will allow me to remain sat comfortably on the sofa whilst she gets her xfactor fix. The tablet has an 8" screen, costs £329 and available for pre order from the Sony site. It looks very impressive in this video.

Nice another excellent design from Sony so when you use a wheel your expected to sit with a controller on your lap for wired voice chat and when you use this u need to do the same since it covers the headphone socket. Social gaming at its best another total gimmick. That's one up on wireless pilot style headphones since it will be even more uncomfortable to have that extra weight on the front of the controller for more than five mins. I don't think Sony designers are gamers

Has anyone tried moving more than 10 ft away from ps4 with controller in hand? I have it disconnects so who wants to sit in another room and watch you game? Two gimmicks on one day spoiling us

I don't think you are...

... I have owned and played on a PS3 Slim for a few years (even upgraded to the later version) with GT5, Medal of Honor, Ratchet and Clank, Eye Pet (for the kids ) and a few other titles. I feel the PS4 to be a let down with the lack of connectivity and performance - it just seems to be a few steps backwards!

My kid and I were at PCWorld and Currys over the weekend looking at XBox One and Kinect - amazing bit of kit but a serious lack of bundles (I think there may be something coming for Christmas). Forza Horizon 2 and Forza 5 look amazing. Sports Rivals looks good too and my kid seems to like Just Dance.

I cast a vote for XBox One (and Kinect for the kids)
We are yet to buy but things are looking up for Microsoft!

I am currently in the market for a new 50" tv, and the amount of complaints i've read online about the 2015 Sony tv's are unbelievable. They mostly focus on shitty support, bugs and late/no firmware updates.

I'm hoping this won't be the same for the ps4 as i want one and have been a ps user since the beginning.

As a person who owned a ps3, ps4 and now Xbox one... I'd say xbox one all the way..

The ps4 IMO felt like a downgrade from the ps3.. Graphics were marginally better, however you have to pay to play online, the controller was rubbish, hardly vibrated and batteries didn't last more than a couple of hours..

The xbox one however is a silky smooth experience, gaming is great, controller is miles better than Sony's effort.. Also linked up to my PC seamlessly to stream movies...

Also Xbox has Forza!!

It's objective. Anyone that owns a ps4 will say ps4 and vice versa with xb1. Personally I would take the ps4 any day of the week. I didn't even have to think about it.

It's not a downgrade from ps3. The graphics are better than xb1 as is the game play. The controller is miles better than the previous version and I like how it doesn't vibrate like a broken out of control dildo at every opportunity. And yes you do have to pay for online services but the quality of online play is much better than the ps3 free service. I get no lag at all and it's a service that Microsoft have always charged for.

Your best bet is to find some mates who have them and have a knock about on them because it really is each to their own on this one.

Well my PS4 just arrived today!

COD and Mortal Kombat. I'm waiting for Hitman and Unchartered to be released Q1 2016 as I'm a big fan of those franchises.

I paid £30 for my Xbox live about 4 years ago
It hasn't cost me a penny since and I've still got another 3 or so years left.

I love my xbone. The new tomb raider is incredible

Rrp is 39.99 per yr but you can get it cheaper if you shop around. I don't know what the deal is with Microsoft. I thought you had to pay annually for that too.
