Ps4 questions

I see that Destiny does require an always on internet connection, to provide a seamless experience between multi-player, co-op and single mode. Destiny seems primarily like an online multi-player game like how Warhawk and MAG were, so taking this route makes sense.

It will be interesting to know how many other games come out like this that are not primarily online multiplayer games. I.e Fifa, PES, GTA, GT, AC, Batman, Uncharted, Tekken, Street Fighter.....etc. I'm sure those games will be available to play without an internet connection. That's where the advantage lies with the PS4 over the Xbone.

People will spin it anyway they want. Last(this) gen Xbox was all about games and Sony was more about becoming the family media center. People made the argument that "Sony has a bluray player and can do so much more including play games with more power." Yet I would say Xbox 360 was a bigger success this time around. They grew substantially more than Playstation.

However I am not even considering Xbox one at the moment. They're really ignoring the consumer.

Do ps3 games work on the ps4?

No physical PS3 games will NOT work on PS4, however using Gaikai you will be able to stream them.

Is there now a charge on online gaming ?
Yes you will need to be a Playstation + member.

What is ps+ ?
PS+ (or Playstation +) is Sonys online service and for £40 (and occasionally there are special offers - i got mine for £30) a year you get free games as long as you stay subbed for PS3, Vita and in the future PS4, online exclusives and early access to certain things, as well as discounts to game store purchases.

What are the flagship games in the pipeline for the ps4

Well list of exclusives:

Driveclub
Knack
The Order:1886
Killzone
Infamous:Second Son
Deep Down

To the OP:

As far as I'm concerned no you cannot, not for free unless you pay a fee. You can go into the PS4 store and purchase a PS3, or PS2 or PS1 game from there (I would see it this way until Sony make further announcements)

You need to pay a subscription to be able to play multiplayer online.
However you don't need to pay a subscription or anything for other online peripherals such as watching Youtube, Netflix etc. only to be able to play with others online

PS+ is what you need to be paying for to play online with others, it is the equivalent of Xbox Live, the subscription of what Xbox 360 users must pay for to play online.

It will cost around 30-40 pounds a year, but with the PS3 it has always given subscribers regular free games, monthly much of the time

**UPDATE**

Is there now a charge on online gaming ?

MMOs/F2P will be up to the publisher. DC Universe and Planetside 2 have been confirmed as NOT needing PS+ to work
