In-depth look at PS4 interface

Sony has released a video showing off how the PlayStation 4 interface works.

It already seems to hold a lot of advantages over the confusing PlayStation 3 interface, with big, clear panels showing off what's new and what your friends are up to.

The video also details how players can download games, chat to their friends and get tips when playing through tough levels.

You'll also be able to play games while downloading new ones, and it looks like it'll all be done in quick, seamless transitions. Although expect loading times to be a fair bit longer than what you see in the video.

Watch it below.

The PlayStation 4 will launch at the end of the year for $399 USD.
