PS4: DualShock 4 has Share button, touchscreen, identified by color

At the PlayStation event, Sony has shown off the DualShock 4 controller, and it looks very familiar if you have been following the leaks and rumors.
As rumored, the DualShock 4 brings social to your hands with a Share button, that makes it easy to capture and share clips of gameplay with friends and the PlayStation community. The DualShock 4 also has the touchpad on the front as previously seen.

Mark Cerny, lead system architect, showed that like the PlayStation Move, the player is identified by a color which is located on top of the controller between the should buttons.

The DualShock 4 is also tracked by a camera that is still under development.
