I have PS+ membership until 2015, so besides $399 price for PS4, PS+ carrying over to PS4 and it applies to PS3, vita, PS4 for one price is the biggest thing for me so far:

my nephew got this when I bought him a Vita. saved my brother a shitton on buying vita games so far. it's great that it's good for all 3 platforms. definitely will be a no-brainer if/when i pick up a ps4.
 
I was going to get PS4 anyway for the 4k video support since I already have access to the display tech.

The price and no-restrictions-policy is simply sugar on the top.

It pretty much saved me from buying any game on the VITA. I have only bought Rayman Origins, all the others: free.

Just to point it out, both consoles this gen do 4k actually, which is a good thing.

It's nice to have both sides promoting higher resolutions early on, instead of having to play catch-up or wait for the next gen to get support.
 
BTW, I'm trying to get a better source, but I was told that Sony clarified for a couple reporters some things about the used game policy.

They stated on stage, "We won't impose any restrictions on PS4 used games."

The clarification is that while Sony won't impose any restrictions that publishers could still impose restrictions, via the use of a 'used games pass' and that it's in the hands of the developers.

This would put them in a similar scenario to the Xbox One.

I'm guessing it's likely bull, but I'm seeing if I can get anyone that I know really well at E3 with any of the big publishers to clarify that for me, since I figured it will be a point of interest.
