PS4 and Xbox One ready for play
We’ve just finished fighting the crowds of San Diego Comic-Con’s preview night to get a lay of the land for this long weekend we have coming up. We noticed that the convention has decided to move the videogame booths to the opposite side of the hall from the movie and television booths, spreading out the foot traffic a bit. Nice move, Comic-Con.
We also noticed that there are lots of first-time opportunities for the public to play next-gen games here at SDCC 2013. If you’re planning on coming to the event this weekend, here’s what you’re able to expect.
Sony has the PS4 behind glass for the public to check out, and they’ve brought a few next-gen games to go with it.

And though it’s not next-gen, they have some slickGran Turismo 6setups on the floor to try out.
