    1) PS4 Beta Test starts on February 22, 2014.
    2) PS3 Users can upgrade to PS4 for Free (but lose PS3 Access in the bargain).
    3) PS4 will be able to Stream to the PS Vita and they are looking into how to make use of the back touchscreen since the Vita only has 2 Shoulder buttons.
    4) You will be able to use the touchpad in the center of the DS4-Controller as a mouse.
    5) An official release date for the finished version of the PS4 Edition of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn has not been set, but I would place it as anywhere from March to May with the PS4 beta continuing on and off throughout its test cycle.

    If it is in March it will fall 'Between' 2.2 and 2.3, while if it is in May it might actually come 'with' 2.3.

    I doubt the graphics will be better than PC (not much of a reason, graphics aren't everything), but as far as I know, the ps4 version goes into beta when the PS4 launches in Japan. so unfortunately, it seems they will get it first since it won't be out in the rest of the world until some time after.
    Graphics could easily be on par with DX11, and superior to the DX9 PC Version. There is no reason to think that the PS4 version will not be international/multinational/multi-regional upon launch as we (US and EU) get the PS4 sooner than Japan gets the PS4.

    The PlayStation4 is releasing in the USA on 11-15-2013.
    The PlayStation4 is releasing in the EU on 11-29-2013. (2 weeks after USA)
    The PlayStation4 is releasing in Japan on 2-22-2014. (3 MONTHS after USA and EU)

    Solid business sense to increase sales but... It's a fantastic way to anger your local customers. :x
