The developer for The Witness clarifies some info regarding its timed exclusive status as it only towards console versions. The PC and iOS version is planned to be released the same day as the PS4 version.

Sony once again confirms DualShock 3 controllers are not compatible at all with the PS4 even though they share the same Bluetooth capabilities as the PS4 controller. Once cloud-based PS3 games start arriving for the PS4, only the DualShock 4 controller and PS Move can be used.

Sony also revealed more specs that were either ignored or briefly stated during the announcement show. According to other places, the "Jaguar" is the slowest of the major core type processors and had to be used for cost reasons (other ones range in the $1000 to $2000 to be used).

The actual HDD size and number of USB ports might still be undecided although its rumored a 500 GB HDD would be used initially.

Sony also announced PS4 game prices will not top $60 and no need to worry about a new "HD" tax similar to the current gen when it arrived.
