It has been stated that the lineup for the Sony PlayStation 4 will be stronger than any of Sony's previous platforms.

The claim comes from PlayStation 4 system architect Mark Cerny, who spoke with Gamasutra. He claimed that the strong lineup is the result of ease of development for the PlayStation 4.

"The launch lineup for the PS4 — though I unfortunately can't give the title count — is going to be stronger than any prior PlayStation hardware," Cerny said. "And that's a result of that familiarity."

The games we can expect so far for the PlayStation 4 include Killzone: Shadow Fall, DriveClub and Watch_Dogs, with Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag appearing likely. Also speculated is inFAMOUS: Second Son.

Cerny also made comments on specs for the PlayStation 4, claiming that the system stands out from its competitors due to the fact that all 8GB of its GDDR5 RAM is fully addressable by the CPU and GPU.

"If [I had an 8GB PC] the CPU or GPU could only share about one percent of that memory on any given frame," he said. "That's simply a limit imposed by the speed of the PCIe. So, yes, there is substantial benefit to having a unified architecture on PS4, and it's a very straightforward benefit that you get even on your first day of coding with the system. The growth in the system in later years will come more from having the enhanced PC GPU. And I guess that conversation gets into everything we did to enhance it."

Cerny also discussed the GPU for the PlayStation 4, though he didn't get into specifics.

"It's ATI Radeon... Getting into specific numbers probably doesn't help clarify the situation much, except we took their most current technology, and performed a large number of modifications to it," he said.

The PlayStation 4 is slated for a "Holiday 2013" release, though no exact date has been given.
