Just like the design and remote controller, power consumption is also one of the key points that are under thorough discussion these days. With "Go Green" being the buzzword today, critics expect that Sony might decide to join the Go Green revolution and market a completely Green product in form of the PS4, which will consume almost very low power levels.
Well, let aside very gta 5 ps4, something that Sony will have to ensure in PS4 would be substantial relief in terms of the power sucking capability of their next generation gaming console. Everyone is pretty well aware of the fact that the PS3 is such a big power sucker.
In fact, you might be shocked to hear that just leaving your PS3 switched on (yes, we're talking about the idle state) for a year would cost you a whooping $157! On the contrary, if you play it round the clock 365days a year, it'll just cost you about 8-10bucks more - what utter waste of energy, isn't it?
However, it will be pretty tough to manage the heavy upgrades in performance in an eco-friendly design, especially without an optical media in the storage drive (assuming that PS4 will operate online and games will be downloaded rather than being saved on DVD/Blu-Ray disks or hard drives).
