游戏主机大战：索尼PS 4稳赢的5大理由

品牌

    PlayStation是索尼的大品牌。第一代PlayStation的销量超过了1.02亿台，今年刚刚停产的PlayStation 2的用户则高达1.5亿台。而PS 3的销量超过了7,700万台，而且还在不断增加（索尼未来还会继续支持PS 3）。结果就是PlayStation的大名几乎无人不晓，而这又对它吸引更多主流消费者大有好处。索尼还通过《跑车浪漫旅》（Gran Turismo）这样的独家游戏吸引了更多的铁杆玩家。目前，这款游戏已经卖了6,500万套。

The brand

    Sony has a great brand in PlayStation. Sales of the original PlayStation surpassed 102 million units and the PlayStation 2, which just ended its production run this year, has an installed base of over 150 million consoles. Sony has sold over 77 million PS3s and counting (they'll continue to support PS3 well into the future). The bottom line is everyone knows the PlayStation brand, and that goes a long way in reaching the more mainstream consumer. Sony has also wooed more hardcore gamers with its line-up of exclusive games like Gran Turismo, which has sold over 65 million copies.

性能

    尽管Xbox One和PS4都采用了AMD最新的核心图像芯片，但开发者在E3展会上称，索尼的图像处理能力要高出约40%。如果确实如此，那今年秋季当PS4和Xbox One同台竞技时，美国动视公司（Activision）的《使命召唤10：幽灵》（Call of Duty：Ghosts） 和育碧公司（Ubisoft）的《看门狗》（Watch Dogs）这类第三方游戏应该能在PS 4上拥有更出色的视觉效果。再加上开发者为PS 4开发游戏更方便容易，索尼在推出PS 4时应该会拥有很多像《赛车俱乐部》（Driveclub）和《杀戮地带》（Killzone War Zone）这样的优秀游戏。

The power

    Although both the Xbox One and PS4 feature AMD's latest Graphics Core Next technology, developers at E3 said Sony's console features roughly 40% more processing power. If that holds true, third party games like Activision's Call of Duty Ghosts and Ubisoft's Watch Dogs will look better on PS4 when put side-by-side with Xbox One this fall. Coupled with the ease of use developers are having programming for the PS4, Sony should have a great collection of standout games at launch like Driveclub and Killzone War Zone.

开发者

    娱乐评分网站Metacritic有史以来评分最高的两款游戏《秘境探险》和《美国末日》都出自“淘气狗”（Naughty Dog）这个工作室。这家属于索尼的工作室一直都能推出充满原创力的动作冒险游戏，它们在获得大量好评和非凡销量的同时，还能将索尼游戏机的硬件水平推向新的高度。近期，它已从青少年钟爱的印第安纳•琼斯式的动作游戏《秘境探险》成功转型，开发出了成年人喜爱的、充满后末世惊悚刺激元素的《美国末日》。全世界的游戏玩家都在热切期待这个工作室即将在PS 4上推出的力作。

The developers

    Two of the highest-rated Metacritic game franchises of all time, Uncharted and The Last of Us, come from developer Naughty Dog. The Sony-owned studio has been able to create original action adventure games that push the boundaries of Sony's hardware, while garnering critical acclaim and blockbuster sales. The studio recently made the successful transition from Teen-rated Indiana Jones-style action in Uncharted 3 to Mature-rated intense post-apocalyptic thrills in The Last of Us. Gamers around the world are looking forward to seeing what this studio can do with the PS4.
