6. Compatibility With Other Devices
Were never far from an internet connection or an electronic which has been designed to make our lives easier. Current generation gaming consoles have combined gaming with the ability to play music, watch DVDs and stream entertainment all in one package, and this has to continue. Reports suggest the next Xbox will feature Skype chat, which will replace Live chat. Microsoft have also rolled out Xbox SmartGlass, which allows you to control your Xbox with your mobile and other devices. If Sony doesnt look to announce a similar application which controls PlayStation 4 multimedia, theyre risking being left behind in an age where functionality matters. The possibilities are almost endless. Sony tablets could tap into your console, and instantly search community forums or YouTube to get help for that tricky section of a game youre stuck on. Purchase software on your phone and have it ready and waiting to download when you switch your console on. And Sony - please make sure people know about the cool stuff you can do with this amazing multi-platform technology! Multi-tasking is key, and Sony could announce their answer to it at the PlayStation Meeting.
