PS4 Teaser Video for E3

If it does come with a tron light bar, I hope it can be turned off. Bright light sources can be annoying in dark rooms.

Yeah if it does you need to be able to turn it off. I hope they do have a notification light, it kind of seems like a no brainier if it is 'always online' in sleep mode. Thinking about it, the Wii was actually ahead of the game in that respect.

I was totally expecting to see some sort of mockup in this thread based on all the quick shots in that teaser, but found nothing...

GAF, I am disappoint!

If we forget the detailing, and look at the basic shape, it might be similar. But more square. I think the curve around the back could be correct, rather than on a perpendicular side. Not sure if it'll slant or curve forward. A simple square slab with a curved back might be on the money.

you're lttp friend, but i don't think the console will look like that mock up at all.

I'm not talking about the detailing - ridges, vents, gaps etc. Just merely the basic shape. Something like a square with a curve on the back seems right I think.

I actually think this is going to be very close to the final design.

then it wouldn't have been blurry. it would have been a box.

Not necessarily. You're looking at a blurred generic shape, you see it but can't see it properly. Just like the close-up images, you're looking at the console but you can't see it properly. The square in the background could simply be considered a symbol of that mystery.
 
The only think I am not sure of is that circular fan thing. I don't know if there will be for certain a curved edge. The upper right hand corner could just be more plastic and the "fan" is set back into it. Or maybe it's more obvious when not looking at it on a phone.

There's several things wrong with that. Colours, spacing, shape etc. For a start it needs to be square instead of rectangular.

Looks so fucking mess.

Yea I'd rather not have curves. Hopefully that rounded shot is from the head set or something. I'd prefer linear and slick, unless they work it in to the design really well.

Don't have a picture right now, but over the last couple days, game shops in the UK got through new posters from Sony featuring the DualShock 4 and some games that also feature a prominent thin blue line down the middle - would match up with the hint at the end of the video about an LED strip, if not just a marketing thing.

That curve may be a smaller detail than it looks, everything else seems to be a super close up.

I'm expecting something weird like this.

Pretty cool. I expect the light grey section to be acrylic glass like. If they got some sort of light emitting display under it, that would be amazing.

You should change the light grey segments on the left to reflective black, and leave the strip running down the middle light grey. Also add a blue light in-between the main ridge, and you might be fairly close.

I'd love this to take lines from the PS2. And I really hope there are as few lights as possible. My TV has a single blue light and it's infuriating, at least the console will be placed away to the right rather than in my line of sight.
