Hours of fun in perspective

The console comes with a USB-miniUSB cable to charge the controller, HDMI cable, a power cable (the power supply is in the bracket so it is a power cable 8 Standard a headset that plugs into a port on this handle and a manual.
No need to search the code for the 15-day trials of the PSN + there is none in the box, that's when you indicate in your account the interface of the PS4 that you can have the trial offer.
It's very important to know that unlike the PS3, PS4 on it is mandatory to have a PSN + subscription to take advantage of the console's network features (light to play network you must subscribe).
The cost of this subscription is 49 euros for one year, the amazon offers for 44 euros LiveCards Playstation Plus - subscription 365 days.
Sure the players will have to pay the annual subscription, but there still has counterparties:
- Backups players are stored in the cloud by Sony (in case of failure of your console you will not lose data)
- You will have access to free PSN games catalog + for all your consoles (PS3, PS4 and PSVITA), noted that only one PSN + subscription for a family is valid for ALL consoles of your home, allowing you to access each month Free Games for PS3, PS4 and also on PSVITA. Now you will have two complete games for free PS4: Resogun and Contrast.
You can keep all the games for free or for the duration you are subscribed to the service. A dozen new games coming every month on the service.

As for the console, you will not be lost, the configuration is simple and fast. Remember to activate the functions that will offer you and used to be able to charge your controllers same console off and also be able to download games and updates your downloads without you having to worry about it even extinct console .
Clearly on PS3, you launch a game to play, you were notified that an update (sometimes long to download) was available, you had to wait for downloading and only then you could play. PS4 on the control console itself availability of updates on the games you have and installs herself automatically and invisibly to you, or while you're on other games, or just for that is on standby.

Then, regarding the games I tested NBA 2K14, Battlefield 4 - limited edition Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag.
On a big screen in Full HD is the big slap assured, the most beautiful game in my opinion is launching NBA 2K14, it is quite simple for the first hour you spend more time marvel at his TV that 'to play. Other type but even slap Battlefield 4 finally brings quality PCs games with a graphics card priced out of consoles, graphic slap is here, and now we can also finally play 24 against 24 (instead of 12 against 12 on PS3 ).
Assassin's Creed is so sublime, we take in the scenery and daydream before it becomes nice to "just" watching someone play.

I'd no comparison between this console and competing, but I'm captivated by the console and its possibilities, and yet this is only the beginning!
For me this console is the assurance of choosing a console that will last several years and will have a repository that will quickly grow.

Another important point for those who has a PSVITA, it is possible to control your PS4 since PSVITA, imagine you start your game Battlefield 4 of your couch on your PS4, and when you get tired you can transfer your screen on screen PSVITA and continue your party in your bed on the screen of VITA.
You can also control your PS4 on the screen of your VITA without your TV or turn the VITA becomes a second full screen (additional buttons DUALSHOCK4 are emulated on the top and bottom of the back touch screen VITA).
For me it's a great feature, and works great, I had some doubts because I had already tried the screen transfer of the WiiU, but the latter merely pass between the console and creates mablette interference, here with the PS4 and VITA is WIFI and so it works the hair all over my house.

As for the controller, so it is a DualShock 4 is a redesigned version 3 that was included with the PS3, it is lighter, the analog sticks are more flexible and START and SELECT buttons on Missing (it's a shock at first) by SHARE OPTIONS buttons and a tactile and clickable area is also present.

If you want to change the hard drive of the console (the one supplied base is a SATA 500GB but you can put any SATA drive of any capacity or an SSD) manipulation is childish: you drag the hood shiny on top of the console, you have a screw removed disk access is here, you take it off you put a 1TB drive for example, and that's it. As against this operation once made to reboot the console you will need to download the FULL firmware update (not the light version!) On a USB stick (formatted in FAT or FAT32 only, it does not work with NTFS) and initialize disk.
Note that this drive for change is a simple operation provided by the manufacturer (this is explained in the manual) cancels this operation therefore in no case a guarantee is provided by the manufacturer.

I tried to be as complete as possible and I would add my impressions in the coming weeks.
Everything is totally perfect?
Well no, I just reproach, autonomy of the handle is tight (7-8 hours) it will therefore be needed to recharge regularly or invest in a second manett, apart from that it ' is happiness! I recommend it without hesitation !!
