NEWS: Capture HD Gameplay Directly From Your PS4

Head of Sony's third party relations Brad Douglas  has revealed that the PlayStation 4 will be able to capture footage directly via HDMI.

Douglas said via his Twitter account "I think we just announced that we're going to allow video capture of games over HDMI! Details will follow soon."

Initially, it was Sony's plan for it's customers to use the share button on the DualShock 4 controller in order to share captured content, but it seems more options are now available to capture footage from your PS4.

Users can still use the share function, but will be limited to 15 minutes each time.
 It seems recording directly through HDMI would be the better option.
There you have it - easy access to capture HD quality gameplay from your PS4, I know I'll be taking advantage of this, how about you? Comments below.

NEWS: PlayStation 4 - Japanese Release Date Pushed Back


Japan - the origin of all things Sony and PlayStation, will in fact probably be the last country to see the release of the PlayStation 4.

Instead of it's original plan to be released in November, Sony Asia announced at the Tokyo Game Show that the console will instead be releasing February 22nd of 2014.

Why is this? I honestly don't know. It could be that Sony as a whole want to focus their efforts on the North American and European release in terms of maximizing profits, and then dedicate themselves purely on the Japanese release, but like I say - I really don't know why this is.

I'm sure a lot of Japanese gamers are angry about this news, but time will tell why Sony decided to make such a strange decision, especially this close to the original launch date.
