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

    • Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations by Usama Jawad Microsoft began integrating Copilot into Excel a couple of years ago and has been upgrading it with new functionalities since then. While some changes have been controversial, Microsoft is hoping to win over users by allowing them to be more productive via Copilot. To that end, it has now announced a Copilot improvement that may actually be appreciated by people who use it regularly. Excel customers often use the Copilot prompt box to issue instructions to format and customize their data, but it can become quite tiring to keep repeating the same instructions again and again. Microsoft now allows you to define Copilot personalization rules for formatting, naming conventions, formulas, and report styles. These can be accessed via Settings > Personalization, where you can explain your rules in natural language like "Always format currency in USD with no decimals", and just let Copilot take care of the rest. Microsoft is going a step further in this direction by allowing you to set workbook rules too. These rules are stored as a .Rules sheet, and are preserved while the workbook is shared. This fosters collaboration while making sure that standard rules govern the Copilot editing experience across the organization. Other advantages of this capability include pointing it to specific examples, defining dynamic formulas, and referencing an entire sheet and asking Copilot to infer rules based on that. You can leverage this feature by opening Copilot in Excel, clicking on "+", and selecting Create workbook rules. If you have an existing .Rules sheet, you can simply start listing the rules in column A as well. Personalization features are available to all Copilot in Excel users across the web, Mac, and Windows. Meanwhile, workbook rules are currently being previewed for Windows and Mac customers on the Insiders channel. General availability is scheduled after a few weeks, but a concrete date is currently unknown. Overall, the Excel capability is quite similar to ChatGPT's memory features, which allow you to permanently store items in the AI model's context window.
    • Imagine you still haven't discovered Total Commander that is doing all those things for three decades already...
    • This sounds like underneath the nice marketing spin, either someone at Adobe got tired of their lazy devs and asked Microsoft to help them sort at least some of Adobe's ancestral spaghetti code to make it go faster, or Microsoft wanted Adobe's crap to run better on Windows to make it look better when compared to Apple, so they offered to intervene. Either way, GOOD.
    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature by Taras Buria Files is among the best File Explorer alternatives for Windows 10 and 11. This free app is packed with all sorts of features and conveniences, but there is one crucial feature that is still missing—Tree View. Fortunately, the latest update in the Preview channel finally delivers it. With version 4.1.4, which is now available for download in the Preview channel, developers implemented Tree View, a new mode that displays folders in an expandable hierarchy. Windows 11's stock File Explorer always had this feature, but it was nowhere to be found in Files until now. Starting with the latest preview update, you can expand each drive and its nested folders without leaving the current location and then open the folder you need in the main view. To try Tree View in Files, update the app to the latest preview version, then click the small arrow next to a drive to expand its content. The developers say they are rolling out Tree View in Preview first to gather feedback from users and improve the feature before bringing it to all in the stable channel. In addition to Tree View, Files 4.1.14 improves the Windows Fonts folder. You can now preview each font directly in Files with no need to open the built-in font viewer. For now, these two features are only available in the Preview channel. For those using the stable release, developers recently released version 4.1.3, with improvements for the built-in tag system, on-demand folder size calculation, and plenty of various fixes. You can check out the full release notes here. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
    • Who is paying for this 30x scale-up? Its sounds expensive.
