Still no confirmation regarding if it requires electricity or not.

Bravo, cracked me up.

Totally got me, I burst out laughing.

But yes - Jeff called it, Sony'll be releasing stuff like this both before and after the Xbox event I think.

Hey, works for me, I love this hype shit.

Sony will ship these with unhatched alien eggs inside the vents, I'm sure of it.

I wish some people weren't so cynical and jaded.

Are Sony being "dicks" by releasing this the day before the Xbox reveal? Don't be silly, its marketing. This is the beginning of what will be for the forseeable future a big marketing shouting match between these two companies. They both have a lot on the line, and they are going to push these systems as hard as they can to grab your attention.

As to people's other major complaint, about "who cares what it looks like?" Of course in the end its not really important, but I don't think anyone around here has said "man, this thing better look cool, or I'm not buying one." But, and correct me if I'm wrong, we're all here because we love video games, right? And a new video game console is about as exciting a time there can be for console gamers. There are loads of people who can't wait to get their hands on a new system, and seeing what it will look like is a validation that it's real, they can look at pictures of it and say "that's the ting I'm going to buy, that's what it looks like." They can imagine it on their shelf in a very real way, as opposed to just imagining what this theoretical box looks like. It's one more step toward ownership.

tl:dr - Do I care what the PS4 looks like? Not really, but I'm damn excited to see it.

I don't understand why people care so much about what the box for either console looks like. Will the aesthetics of the box really make someone pick one console over another?

I don't get it either, only thing I'd find interesting is if it uses some old Atari design like the PS2 did.

Good thing for Sony that they tease us with their black rectangle and all its sexy physical features. Otherwise, they'd lose tons of consumer happy points after Microsoft reveals their white rectangle in full aliased glory.

This is here just to excite their core audience. Source: I'm among it.

I really hope that controller's not too much fatter than a dual shock. The button and stick changes look like I can live with them.

All kidding aside, I'm surprised they're sticking with the same font as the PS3 slim model.

Guys, we all know it's going to be a black rectangle of some sort. This is just good marketing by Sony - take a little of the focus away from Microsoft on the eve of their big reveal, and give people something to talk about right up to E3. Regardless, all this shit is getting me seriously hyped.

With a project name like "Orbis," I was hoping for a cool sphere levitating over a pedestal.

If this trailer is anything to go by, it seems that the Playstation 4 is going to be a gaming console of some sorts.

Nothing in this trailer insinuates that this is any kind of gaming console.
