10 Crucial PS4 Features Sony Must Implement In 2015

5. Pause-Resume Functionality

The ability to pause and resume content within a few seconds of booting up the system is something that the new consoles were sold on from the get-go, and although you can switch between a selection of apps from within the PS4's interface (like going from a game to a video streaming app and back again) if you power down the system there's no way to hop back into the content from where you were. This was actually a feature Sony seemed to have down pretty well with their disastrous original PSP, with their UMD discs being able to pause something even as processor-heavy as Pursuit Force or Daxter whenever you needed, booting it back up later on. Why this hasn't been included yet is something users wonder on a near-daily basis, as it would help immensely with whenever real life gets in the way of a good ol' gaming session and there's no checkpoint in sight, yet it remains exclusively on the 'coming soon' list.
