PS4... good for some. Disappointing for me, getting unnecessarily excited.

Glad to see a heads up about the stream posted here.

I don't have a PS4 (or Xbox), so I wasn't interested though. My six year old wanted to watch it though, so we did. I did find it interesting that the PS4 version can speed up time just like the PC version, and unlike (I believe) the Xbox version.

My six year old said "Why do they keep talking so much instead of building. They're not even talking about Cities Skylines. They should get me to play for them, and they can talk."
I couldn't help but laugh.

Even though I won't be playing it on PS4, still glad to see the game being brought to more people. Hopefully that will help keep it going for all of us. And show EA how stupid they were. ;)

Growing up on keyboard+mouse (kb+m), I would not be keen on the controller. (I'm sure people growing up on the controller would probably say the same about kb+m).
I did notice (despite the controller being "preferred" by the player) some fiddling about trying to place stuff (power lines in particular, roads a bit too) with the controller that would not be an issue with kb+m. One thing that could help (with power lines anyway), would be a "blue power zone" around the power lines.

Unquestionably brilliant. FACT.

Although I don't care about PS4, I think it's good for the game. Bigger market, better feedback, more money, more stuff added to the game.
It's also nice to have a PC game ported to consoles. Doesn't happen very often.
