Ryan told CVG in an E3 interview (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/467897/interviews/interview-sonys-jim-ryan-on-life-at-the-top/) that the system's slate of games, fromThe Last of Us Remastered (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/467127/the-last-of-us-ps4-release-date-confirmed/) in July to Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/pc/fps/13617/call-of-duty-advanced-warfare/)and Far Cry 4 (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/playstation-4/fps/13647/far-cry-4/) in November, will have a powerful cumulative effect on system sales.

"We're partnered up with Activision on that. The intensity and depth that the two organisations are working at is something I've never seen before. Both really want to make this work in a really serious way.
"The game is obviously multiformat so it will be out on Xbox One and 360, as it will be on PS3. But I think, certainly in our eyes, the main prize is the PS4 version of the game. We want to make that absolutely enormous."
Sony plans to support Destiny with an exclusive white PS4 system (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/467158/pictured-the-new-white-ps4/)bundled with the game at launch. PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 players will be the first to try Destiny's beta, which begins July 17 (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/466670/destiny-beta-launches-july-17-for-playstation-owners-alpha-out-this-weekend/).
