PlayStation 4 Specs Show No Console Rivals Mercy

Wondering just how all that magic happens inside the PlayStation 4? Sony has revealed a fairly detailed list of all the console's components, painting a picture of a very solid system.

Even if Sony didn't show off the actual physical PS4, the company did detail just what the insides of the little box would look like. Many of the earlier leaked specs were close, if not entirely, spot on with the final product. It should be noted though, that even Sony stated any of these specs is subject to change at its discretion. How likely that is given that the PS4 is launching by the end of this year is questionable, but at least they seem to have the bases covered.

You can check out a full breakdown of the guts and chips powering the console below. Take note that there will still be a Blu-ray drive, and USB 3.0 ports upgraded over USB 2.0 on the PS3. Still no data on the hard drive size, but 500GB drives are already present and accounted for in the PS3, so you should at least expect that much in the PlayStation 4. Hopefully.
