They're inviting media and investors to this event. Every media outlet is saying this is the PS4 reveal, some of them even confirming it with sources, giving us details of the new controller and new system features.
The fact that its a PlayStation event where we will "see the future of the PlayStation business" - according to Sony - kind of limits what else it could be other than the PS4.
Because they didn't come out say "See our next home conso...
It's sexy but I hope they use a material that's nice to look at but doesn't scratch so easily. The Phat PS3 showed everything.
Ya, that really isn't really a valid reason. Sony released God of War II after the PS3 launched.
Just because they have good titles available on PS3 leading up to a new console launch doesn't really mean anything, just that Sony likes to give us good games late in the console cycle.
9 Reasons they will
1) They want to get out ahead of Microsoft
2) Sony knew that teaser video would create PS4 hype
3) They know if they show anything besides the PS4, it will be a massive disappointment
4) Its time for new consoles
5) What else could it be?
6) Almost all of their first party studios have been working on next-gen titles for a while now
7) If its coming out in 2013, they need to start hyping it
8) If its ...
I still think Microsoft will hang on and announce at E3. Possibly tease the console in May, in the weeks leading up to E3.
Among Thieves inches out Drake's Deception as the best of the series, for me anyways. This one was amazing too, if anyone here hasn't played this one yet, jump all over this deal.
(Its a fairly easy platinum trophy too, if that's your thang)
Its incredible to play in short bursts to show it off to friends and things like that, but playing a full game in 3D is really distracting and kind of takes you out of the experience to be honest.
I think the event will feel really similar to the PlayStation Meeting in 2011 when they unveiled the NGP.
They'll probably show off the PS4 without going into any specs or pricing, show us a sizzle reel where it confirms a few of their first party titles like Gran Turismo, Killzone, maybe Uncharted ect...
They might be saving this one for E3, but I also think there's a chance they will talk about their plans for Gaikai and how they're building the cloud service in...
Its gonna be a great year but I'm more excited for 2014, because we have no idea whats coming.
@LiquidSword93
Well, I've already started saving for the PS4, and if I didn't have to dip into that fund to buy a new laptop last weekend, I'd be good to go.
Just one job for me, enough for bills, groceries and my video game addiction.
@shonen_82
Haha nice, that game is going to be amazing.
Here's how big of a nerd I am... I started pricing out tents for the PS4 launch.
You're not playing The Last of Us or Beyond when they come out? I don't think I have that kind of strength.
Hopefully The Last Guardian will be a PS4 title, Agent and FFvsXIII on the other hand ... I don't really care anymore.
@Mr_Writer85
I could see it happening. Especially with GTAV being delayed until September. If they did that, it would definitely be on the next Xbox too tho.
I think a new IP from Sucker Punch will be the flagship launch title. Maybe Killzone 4.
I'll be very curious to see if Microsoft will wait until E3 to unveil the new Xbox now. In a way they would have the stage all to themselves if they decide to wait. They would have the only hardware unveiling of the three.
In the long run, it probably doesn't matter who announces first. Its all about which one launches first, but it can't hurt if Sony wants to get the hype train rolling early.
How many seconds in? I'd like to see it.
Mmm not sure about that one. Looks like a small triangle floating next to a larger triangle. You can see them pretty good at the 4-5 second mark too.
Its the PS4. Don't over think it.
I went out to grab some Chipotle for dinner and come back to this news. I'm eating a chicken burrito with a huge grin on my face right now.
Its realistic, I'll give him that.
I actually like the "PS Four" logo. I'd be happy with that controller too. The actual console is a little plain looking, and something tells me they're going for flashy.
