Nothing gives me the horn quite like a blurred out trailer.

Could our resident photoshop expert please get to piecing these puzzle pieces together.

Safe to say it’s going to be another black console

@9 No, the white bit is the console. The black bit is just a button

Just missing the voice over saying ” You know you want it, you dirty bitch!”

Looks a lot like a PC rig…

This won’t be as much wallet rape so will most likely end up being my option.

awesome!!!!! i don’t know why am saying that i didn’t really see anything.. and that triangle light/button looked very bad.. but still awesome!!!!

Even pointless stuff like this have a certain magic and you know what I am talking about. God damn I love console gaming and the hype/madness that comes with it and I wouldnt trade it for anything else.

Oh joy, another big blocky black console! I have no doubt in a year you’ll get a slim version with an EVEN BIGGER HARD DRIVE!
I hope this (and the new Xbox) are around the sizes of the current consoles. I wouldn’t buy anything bigger.

I wonder if George Foreman is going to be in charge of design again?!

@ DRDAMN – thanks!

I like this console generation most because will have pc arhitecture and PC games will be easy to port and we can have maybe some of the console exlusive franchises on PC
Mjorh
@23 Nah man , Exclusives are exclusives !

The pulsing blue line at the end must be an LED on the machine you think? Maybe like the blue strip in IRobot? Can’t wait!
Also love how the PS pops up like normal, but instead of a cut-a-way to said game commercial, the camera starts zooming in. Makes the ad feel instantly familiar while feeling more important than usual. I haven’t been more excited for something I cant see since the ole scrambled skinimax channels

@24 well i said some like halo maybe cuz halo 1 and 2 were on pc not all of them it just makes sense…

I can’t understand why SONY ditched the CELL. I know, it’s a b*tch to program, but I would assume that now devs would be more comfortable using it after so many years…
mistermogul
Sony could be wise to show the console off fully tomorrow, say around 6pm UK time…
fearmonkey
It reminds me of some type of Alienware looking mini PC, which isn’t a bad thing.
I hope MS decided to make the next xbox cool looking rather than generic, which I have a feeling they are doing. They want a set top box kind of thing the rumors and the leaked document says. I hope they are wrong.
I love competition, I am actually excited for Sony right now, I hope MS and Sony really have a drag out fight. MS has had it too easy in the US for a long time now, and they act like it.

I think this is pretty funny. The timing of this thing, obviously, but also because Sony are responding directly to give something extra to everybody, and actually not give away much of anything, just completely out of nowhere, 24 hours prior to Microsoft’s presentation!
Bravo, Sony’s marketing team
“well, you said you wanted to see the box” LMAO.
Everybody had the question at the back of their minds after PlayStation Meeting, some even voiced it – Sony heard, and it this point responded. That’s great!
It’s reminiscent of this French happening: http://www.joystiq.com/2007/03/22/xbox-360-loves-france-and-spoils-ps3-launch/

Heh, this is good marketing.
Game on!
This seems really strange to me

Sony does what SEGA does…
Yes, it doesn’t have the same effect but this is a really, really awesome “console wars” tactic.
Moonwalker1982
Pathetic, i’m sorry…but this is it? This is their way to steal some hype from MS? Wow….ok.
Belmont
It was very interesting.I know that these are incredibly close and almost macro shots of the console,impossible to put together as a whole, but still why is it showing so many vents ? The round one looks a bit strange too.
Yet in the end I’m all in for a geeky and sci-fi design !

@31
Its the pad.
deathm00n
@33 Yeah, extremely pathetic right? People aren’t even commenting to it right? 32k views in the topic of the reveal on neogaf in the last 2 hours, pathetic.

@27: I can’t understand why people write “Sony” and “Cell” in all capital letters when they’re not acronyms.
I’ve never, ever seen anyone write MICROSOFT or NINTENDO, and there’s a legit reason people *sometimes* write SEGA (short for SErvice GAmes).
Baffling… truly baffling.

Good God you are such a nerd teeheee!

I couldn’t honestly care less what it looks like. Give me good, original games and its a purchase. It could be shaped like a pig for all I care.
Lengendaryboss
Stealing thunder before the big day, Very wise Sony @37 Happy? @38 Insert your USB port in the pig’s nose, insert discs via the mouth and anything else up the backside
Gaming that way would be weird or tasty to somepeople

the blue light at the end of the video…why do I have a feeling it’s the LED light for the ps4?
RocknRolla
Sony is taking this one home.. Remember my words
Stardog
I’m guessing only a few are from the console itself. Some of those are the controller, and I’m guessing some a from the Kinect alternative they have.

Though I’ve already decided I’m buying it (I generally buy every console except for the Wii U), I hope it’s a bit sleeker than the George Foreman esque launch model PS3 ;P
TD_Monstrous69
Wow, it’s the least most-shocking, hey no-shit-Sherlock story of the century. Sony would be daft not to show it off @ E3. Though I have a feeling that I think their E3 press conference will be great, I got a feeling their GamesCom press event will be their strongest showing, seeing as how Europe’s their strongest territory. Though am I the only one thinking it looks strikingly similar to the PS3 slim, only with a darker shade of grey?
Also, sorry Dave if I’ve offended you with my opening lines, not trying to be a dick. To me, this story just comes off as something that was an obvious given.
And finally, midnight release, I’m buying it.

LED’s make everything better… The only thing that would send it over the edge is some bacon strapped to the side!
DrDamn
@46
If they could get it to emit bacon smells that would be awesome.
Did you know you can trade in games for bacon at Asda? FACT!

@47
And Wii U games for value ‘billy bear ham’?!
Is that actually true btw?!
Beta
I rather like billy bear ham..

I didn’t say I was proud of liking it. :’(
I haven’t had any in a long time so a bit of rose tinting may be going on. XD

I could indeed haha.
Though I must admit I’ve moved on from formed “ham” since my finances improved..
Edit* Formed “meat” rather
DrDamn
Yeah Asda just gives you the trade in value as store credit so you can spend it on what you fancy.

Just give us a simple black fucking box Sony. When has a console ever looked good? They’ve all looked crap under my TV.
