TheLegendOfMart Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I wanna see what's inside it, it's a lot thinner than I thought it was going to be, not sure about the parallelogram shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trag3dy Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 It's kind of interesting. When I first saw it I immediately thought of the PlayStation 2. Ian W 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dead.cell Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I believe these should be correct; someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. The vid said they weren't allowed to show the vents but I found a pic, I think? :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0nyX Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Couldn't like it more. Elegant,subtle but still unique. neo1911 and Aaron Olive 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the better twin Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 65% smaller than the Xbone with no power brick either. Dont think it looks spectacular to be honest, but at least it doesnt look like a VCR. Aaron Olive and +Eternal Tempest 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+virtorio MVC Posted June 11, 2013 MVC Share Posted June 11, 2013 I like it, smaller than I was expecting. I like the design of the Xbox One slightly more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted June 11, 2013 Author Subscriber² Share Posted June 11, 2013 Holy crap at those vents. It looks like a harmonica! I guess the IGN video was being taped prior to the press release PDFs and only what was shown at the conference was allowed. At least its venting out the back, vents anywhere else look tacky.

illage3 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Now that is what a games console should look like :D and all the heat escapes from the back of the console, which is a better design idea than the VCR from the 80's err I mean Xbox one which has a massive vents on the top, the back and the sides. I think MS are anticpating more RROD's or the equivalent on the Xbox one :D neo1911 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUTZIFER Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I don't get how people think XBOX ONE looks like a VCR. Not even remotely close. Looks like a HD Cable PVR if anything, and that's a lot of what it is too, an entertainment system, not a toy. Also, how does size matter? That makes no sense at all. Is there a specific reason a device like that needs to be small? Look how big stereo amplifiers are, and they don't even really do anything. Personally I think the XBOX ONE design is the best design out of anything. And I'm not saying there's anything wrong with the PS4, as I think finally it's looking more like something that belongs in a TV stand with other TV/Audio/Video equipment.

Blaze_Zewi Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 The PS4 color is to dark I can't find where they put the disc drive slot. Am I going blind? :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleNeutrino Veteran Posted June 11, 2013 Veteran Share Posted June 11, 2013 from the looks of the back of the thing its not that they could not show you then vents, its that if they showed you the back they couldn't not show you the vents, its all vents back there.

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted June 11, 2013 Veteran Share Posted June 11, 2013 I wouldn't say it's a beautiful design, but it's definitely better than the Xbox One. Not a fan of either console's 2 tone design: the matte/gloss of PS4 and the gloss/grated look of Xbox One. Switching back to the DS4 is going to be a real struggle personally after being so used to the Xbox controllers for the past 10 years. I just hope the new design is bulkier. At first I was convinced the PS4 didn't have any exhaust fans ala PS3 first uneviling, but the back is balls to brains in them :laugh: Edit: woah woah woah, BT 2.1 only?! Not cool.

Skiver Veteran Posted June 11, 2013 Veteran Share Posted June 11, 2013 I thought it kind of looked like a smaller italic version of the Xbox. I think I maybe slightly biased as I prefer Xbox to PS but despite its size i still think of the two the Xbox is better looking.

spacer Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Both consoles don't look that great. The dual tone gloss/matte finishes really is lame and tacky. I don't understand why their designers would think it looks good. I share your sentiments about the controller, DrunknMonkey. I love love love the 360 controller, and I find the DS design passable at best. I hope the slight redesign makes it more comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Growled Member Posted June 11, 2013 Member Share Posted June 11, 2013 I honestly could care less what it looks like, as long as the gameplay is awesome. And it will be. fmanchu and soniqstylz 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innervisions33 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 It will be overlooked at this point, but including an HDMI cable is a small but nice touch. I know you can get them cheap via amazon and ebay, but for those that may be new to the HDMI world, it's nice to not have to worry about going out and buying one and maybe getting screwed by a box store.
