Sony's PS4 launch is going terrible! So many failures already, just look at the Amazon reviews and they're all legit buyers too.

It's not looking good for PS4 now.

 

Ouch, that's shocking.!! :o

Yeah, people offended by this really need to take a step back and think a little.  Stop caring what other people do or don't do since it doesn't affect you at all.  We may not agree with what he did, but don't be the fun police raining down on his form of entertainment.

It doesn't matter if it affects you personally or not. It's also not about the fun police. It speaks to the convenience and lack of worth some people have when it comes to money. This isn't a form of entertainment, its simply just plain unnecessary; and frankly what is even the point? what, that he can afford a console? what, that he can smash it up if he wants? What so he draws attention to himself through negative actions? I just don't get the point, this isn't even 'entertainment'. I'm not attacking you, i'm just blank why anyone would think this was a good idea....

:s Spend $500 just to smash it up in front of strangers?

 

Put do it with cell phones all the time.

 

its people like this that make me sick. people cant even afford cloths and food and people spending money to buy things just to destroy it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

People are lucky that I dont have the power to make judgement on this planet. 

 

Are you buying the PS4 or Xbox One?

 

 

Bit different. 'Will it blend' was marketing for a range of food blenders, this is just some guy who's... well to be honest, a dick.

 
How is he being a dick? He smashed his own console. Being a dick would be smashing someone else's own console.

The guy smashing the PS4 has been punished anyways by losing $400 and looking like a escaped pyschotic mental patient on the internet.

people who don't use logic make me sick..... :/

It must be nice to have money to waste like that.

 

Some people think the same way when they see people walking out of a store with a game console.  It all depends on what you think is important or not...

Some people have too much money.  He could have donated that money for the recent devastation in Asia or for cancer research.

 

As could everyone standing in line waiting for their console.

A little different. Everyone else goes home and enjoys their new toy for years to come. This dipshit is doing it for 15 minutes of internet fame.

If I wanted to waste US$500 I don't think that would be the best way to do it.  :rofl:

 

Wouldn't he have wasted $500 by buying it due do all these defective PS4's?

Why is he a dip****? Why doesn't anyone call the people testing these phones/tablet drop tests dip****s?

I think they are stupid, too, but they are actually testing something. It isn't just wanton destruction for a few views on youtube.

I must be getting old.  See, in my day when an idiot did something stupid, one or two people saw it and just said "that guy is a #$%^ idiot" and that be the end of it.  We wouldn't tell others because idiots deserve no attention.  Nor are they worth any amount of time thinking about.

 

But these days, this idiot who is just looking for his 15 minutes of fame is getting it because of threads like this.  The more it is discussed the more other idiots see it as an opportunity for fame.

Because people who are REAL testers don't show off to a crowd of shoppers or film their antics while performing tests in a parking lot.

Maybe I don't see the issue, because I see a lot of drop test videos done in public.

 

Let the guy be, everyone in this thread whining about him being a dipshit / dick / wasting $500.

 

It's HIS money.

Money has nothing to do with it.  It's idiotic antics being performed by someone in dire, desperate need of attention just so he can have a warm fuzzy feeling about himself and have a belief that he achieved his 15 minutes of fame.

 

He could have achieved the same result by actually doing something constructive which people would WANT to spread the word about.  Instead, he opted for the childish behaviour one would expect of a four year old in dire need of attention.

 

It's sad that such immature actions are so common these days that people react to them as acceptable, normal behaviour.

It is funny because he's not an idiot, he's more like a escaped mental patient who bought a ps4 and smashed it.

 

I think it's pretty funny how everyone calls him an idoit.

    • With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11! I guess we all need a good laugh now and again...
    • Amazon Prime Day 2026 deal sees Samsung Odyssey 49" 240Hz QD-OLED monitor at lowest price by Sayan Sen Earlier today we covered a very good deal on JBL's BAR 800 Dolby Atmos soundbar system as the unit is available for just $600 as part of Amazon Prime Day 2026 deals. That's not all though as there are many more discounts to choose from. If you are looking for a high-end monitor, Samsung's 49 inch G9 QD-OLED gaming monitor is a solid deal too as it's currently just $855 (purchase link under the specs table down below). It is a super-ultrawide (32:9) 1440p curved gaming monitor and as such should offer a very immersive experience. The G93SC is a 49-inch QD-OLED (Quantum Dot OLED) screen and that means it should have excellent contrast as well as color reproduction. Brightness is a bit lacking though so if you are looking to set it up in a relatively bright room, you may be better off with something else. Speaking of external light and brightness, the major difference on the G93SC vs the newer G93SD is that the latter comes with Samsung's "Glare Free" technology to reduce glare while the C model packs a glossy finish. The technical specifications of the Samsung G93SC are given in the table below: Specification Value Panel Type OLED Screen Shape Curved Screen Curvature 1800R Resolution DQHD (5120 × 1440) Aspect Ratio 32:9 Brightness (Typical) 250 cd/m² Brightness (Minimum) 200 cd/m² Contrast Ratio 1,000,000:1 HDR Support VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 HDR10+ HDR10+ Gaming Response Time 0.03 ms (GTG) Refresh Rate Up to 240 Hz Viewing Angle 178° Horizontal / 178° Vertical Color Support 1 Billion Colors Color Gamut 99% DCI-P3 (CIE1976) Adaptive Sync FreeSync Premium Pro / G-SYNC Compatible DisplayPort 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 HDMI 1 × HDMI 2.1 Micro HDMI 1 × Micro HDMI 2.1 USB Hub 3 × USB 3.0 Speakers Built-in Speaker Output 5W × 2 Channels Operating Temperature 10°C – 40°C Operating Humidity 10–80% (Non-condensing) Stand Type Height Adjustable Stand (HAS) Height Adjustment 120.0 ± 5.0 mm Tilt -2° (±2°) to 15° (±2°) Wall Mount 100 × 100 mm (VESA) Included HDMI Cable HDMI-to-Micro HDMI Cable Included DisplayPort Cable Yes Get it at the link below: Samsung 49" Odyssey G93SC Series Curved Gaming Monitor, QD-OLED: $854.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US with Prime) Prime subscription can be cancelled within three business days at no cost.

    • Actually Windows 11 is the GUI from Windows 10 X slapped onto Windows 10. Hence the many performance issues and initial limitations of the UI, like all the restrictions on the task bar placement and features. You could not even right click on the Taskbar and bring up task manager when it first shipped. Windows 10X was truly a new OS from the ground up. Basically a lightweight OS that ran containers for various app types. Win32 got its own container. Performance was not good and OEM’s pushed back on it, but wanted a new OS to push Pc sales. Hence Windows 11. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10X
    • Windows 10 was 6 years old when Microsoft revealed Windows 11. Does this mean Windows 12 is due next year?
    • Congratulations Windows.
