Sony’s big PS4 conference today went over fairly well as they were able to show a lot of interesting games running on their upcoming system with fairly impressive specs as well as a nicely overhauled online experience and some basic shots of the final version of the DualShock 4 (as you can see above).  Things we still don’t know about the system include how fast its x86 processor and die-sharing GPU are, what the console itself will look like, what the system, games, controllers, etc. will cost, it’s precise release date (aside from this Christmas-ish), and whether or not it’s plethora of online sharing features will come with a yearly price tag or not.  Check after the jump for a long list of what was revealed.

[UPDATE: a larger picture (see above, click to enlarge) as been released that shows the controller from another angle.  A bit more information as come to light as well including that the touch area on the front of the controller also functions as a basic screen, that the touch area is single-touch, that the honeycombed area below the mini screen is a microphone (not necessarily a speaker as we originally supposed), and that the triggers on the back of the controller are more like those on the Xbox 360 controller than those on the PS3 controller.]

Destructoid got their hands on a picture (which you can see after the jump) of a supposed PS4 controller prototype that is being distributed with the PS4 dev kits.  It’s appearance, while quite bulky and non-ergonomic from the looks of it, match many of the stronger rumours surrounding the upcoming console’s controller. 

In the center, you’ll see the rumoured clickable touch panel (which is apparently not a screen) as well as a glowing blue bar on top which hadn’t been mentioned in any of the rumours, but seems to be similar to the light on the PS Move controller and could be used to similar effect.
