The New PS4

Review of the PlayStation 4


In this article it talks about all the changes and new ideas that have been put into the PS4. Some of the changes is that its slimmer, lighter, quieter, less over heating, Dual Shock 4 controller, and many more. There are also many great add-ons to the PS4. Some examples are the camera, Bluetooth, many apps, downloadable games, and many more.


I feel great that Sony has came out with the PS4. This is the next generation in gaming and they are putting everything out on the table. I love all the new ideas that have been put into the new system. What excites me the most are the new releases coming out. Some of them are Infamous: Second Son, Watch Dogs, and even Minecraft will be on the PS4. Another great thing is you can have your games from the PS3 transferred to the PS4. “You’ll be able to pay a fee to have a select few games work on both systems – and if you’ve got a reason to play these games on your PS3 and PS4, you can purchase some games for both at once.”


This can make an impact on the world. People all over are gonna what the next big thing in gaming. In under 24 hours of it release, Sony sold over 1 million consoles. The only problem I think is that it cost $399.99 to buy. After time has passed it will go down and more than likely sales will go up and make a greater impact on the world.

Bi-Weekly Current Event #4

   
Robot Police instead of Human Police


Diaz, Jesus. “Getting rid of the human police and using robots could be a good thing.” Gizmodo. n.p. 7 November. 2013. Web. 8 November. 2013. <http://gizmodo.com/new-robocop-trailer-a-badass-robot-cop-built-to-save-t-1460143609/1460233390/@jesusdiaz>



What if he had robot cops walking around and protecting to streets of the US? “This is not just an hypothetical question anymore. It's already happening. Drones are right now flying around the United States. And the robots will come soon enough(Jesus Diaz).” Using robots could have many good and bad’s to them. Its just most people are afraid that things could go very wrong just like what happens in the movies.

Im kind of inbetween on this article. The use of robots could be good and it could be bad. Using them could be good because we would not have to worry about humans dying and we can always make more of them. The bad part is they could be very expensive or they could lose control and take over. It doesn't really affect me that much because I don't plan on being a police officer.


This could impact the world by less deaths from cops. Maybe they could make them into firefighters also. The only problem with them is they could lose control and take over. It would be really hard if someone took them over and we had no way to stop them. So it could be a good or bad impact and the way we are going I think it would turn out bad.
