Sony teases PS4 design

Sony will lift the lid on the PlayStation 4 at its E3 press briefing June 10, but the company provided tantalizing glimpses of the console's design in a brief teaser video today.

The clip consists of 39 seconds of a blurred-out black box, interspersed with quick flashes of console close-ups. Sony announced the PS4 in mid-February, but did not show off the actual hardware. We'll finally get to see it at E3 during the company's press briefing, which is set for 9 p.m. ET June 10.

Looks weird, to me it looks like a cube, the fan vent image looks quite big.

Yet if it had a Microsoft logo it would be the best thing ever right?

well be seeing the actual thing from MS in a couple of hours as opposed to the 'best thing ever' from sony where basically they showed game demos and a try hard controller...

Tomorrow actually.

Rumours are that Microsoft are going to have two events like Sony, talk about the new xbox and their vision for the future and to show a few games off and leave the big reveal for E3.

Stop with the childish idiotic Sony bashing.

Thank **** it's matte.

Less dust and surface scratches is welcomed :D

Your MS fanboy bias is obvious from not only this post but your posting history and your ignorance in regards to what they actually did reveal is telling. As a result, your "opinion," and I use that word lightly, means nothing as it is tainted and clearly meant to incite. Crisp is 110% right, you really do make other fans of MS look like idiots as well. Way to go.

I jumped on the PS3 launch gloss bandwagon saying it made the console look expensive.... I still do think that, but only when it's 100% unnaturally pristine and inside a dust free room. That fatty got scratched/fingerprinted and grew vicious dust beards constantly.

I am definitely now on team matte.

I think Polyphony should have made a Gran Turismo 6 for the PS4 as well as for the PS3! I think not having a Gran Turismo at launch is a mistake! The biggest and most idiotic thing that sony is doing is not putting out of the box backwards compatibility with PS3 games!

This teasing is stupid. Just reveal it already.

We're a couple of weeks away from E3, would be rather silly not to open E3 with a "bang".

The console either wasn't ready to be shown earlier in the year, or the plan was to show it at E3 all along. This teaser is merely to get social media/news headlines stealing a little time from MS.

I dont know what the hell is wrong with sony that they are not putting the ability to play ps3 games. That is a major fail and a deal breaker! I am still angry they did not put a ps2 emulator in the ps3. Its unacceptable not to include backwards compatiblity in the ps4, most especially that people spent 100s of dollars on ps3 games! I have about over $300 dollars in ps3 games, if i buy a ps4, I should be able to play them. :angry:

Zoom and enhance!

Not only we'll find what PS4 looks like, but we'll find out where this video was taken by lip reading people in reflections of licence plates of some cars passing by the windows of a building on the other side of the street clearly visible in photographer's teeth showing on the PS4 despite it having a matte finish.

No reflections in CGI :p

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!
    • I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
    • Full ACK. I went too far adressing your post specifically. And as you said, it up to us customers as participant of the market dynamic as it happens to decide whether we spend our money on a product or not. The responsibility is to the company. In case of this price hike one could assume that MS is expecting or even starting to see a new interest in XBox hardware so they want to avoid losses per unit sold. I find it fair enough that they granted a period in which everyone interested could grab a unit for the current price (Amazon.de has a reliable stock of XBox Series X digital, which I bought last December after having sold my day one Series X a year ago). It is not that they cash up their customers starting on Monday. Cheers and let's cling to our perfectly fine hardware as long as we deem it worthy in relation to purchasing something new!
