We will NOT be changing anything as a result of the ps4 release until the game is actually released, and runners have had a chance to play it and compare it to previous versions.

To date, version differences between the ps2 and ps3 versions have not necessitated separating the two consoles. Differences in framerate and load times are small enough that the determining factors in what runners have better times are skill and work ethic. In fact, the third place record holder is actually Notohanto, running on the ps2 version. That run was pulled from the leaderboard by the runner for personal reasons, but it doesn't change the fact that the ps2 version remains perfectly competitive with the ps3 version for runners who put the work in. More importantly, while the community of runners remains small (as it has historically been), it's counterproductive to segregate runs by console. That's why the version a run is performed on is noted on the leaderboard in the first place. If and when the leaderboard becomes competitive enough that console differences begin making a difference in placement, we will discuss separating the runs by console.

We already added a new category about six weeks ago, and since then only one person has run it. During the polling process for creation of that category, Plush asked about other potential categories,, and there was very little interest in them. Probably we'll discuss other categories again in the coming weeks, but for now we will not be making changes.
