WTF? the stand is sold separately? can anyone please confirm for me if i can put my future PS4 vertically without the stand?

Of course. The stand just gives it more of a base.

 

[sinxtanx]

red controller reminds me of a sports car

BUILT FOR SPEED

[DeadcatXL]

You can at your own risk. But if it falls down and breaks don't go blaming Sony..

Pre-order canceled

 

[FireCloud]

So close I can almost smell it!.....wait.....never mind that was something else I was smelling. XD

All paid up and ready for release day. The only other possible pickup may be that charging station. It's $30 here, I had Gamestop look it up the last time I was in.

Yes you can.

 

[Vashetti]

Did they use a Powerpoint slide for the box designs?

No MS already reserved that for the 'bone boxes.

 

[Ephemeris]

No horizontal stand?

Big mistake Sony.

There is one.

It's built in.

>_>

 

[flkraven]

Those colored PS4 controllers are hawt

 

[watership]

Some of the best retail box design I've seen since apple. Maybe it's not the design, but it's the BLUE. I Love that blue. That blue controller makes me crazy.

 

[Krisars]

Fuuuck! December 13, why are you so far away?

 

[Alucrid]

why am i so excited to buy a stand?

 

[Aussie Legend]

White DS4 or GTFO Sony

But honestly the colours look pretty ass, I'll happily stick with my Black DS4.

Also why can't it be November 29 yet ;__;

 

[SaggyMonkey]

I'll patiently wait for a cheap knockoff charging station from Mad Catz.

Amazon didn't have the Sony one listed so not sure what the official price is, but this one for 25 seems like an okay option. http://www.amazon.com/BD-Dual-Charging-Dock-playstation-4/

 

[Cyborg]

I want dat blue ds4, is that coming stateside?

Damn the blue one looks sick!

 

[Sum-Mischief]

I like the blue DS4 too .... now that looks sharp.

 

[Nymphae]

Some of the best retail box design I've seen since apple. Maybe it's not the design, but it's the BLUE. I Love that blue. That blue controller makes me crazy.

That's why I loved the original PS3 box, it was just a nice solid blue with the PS3 logo on the front & centre. Classy.

 

[EGOMON]

i can almost smell it dat new boxes scent

 

[daveo42]

Those are some sleek boxes.

The colored controllers look ugly, mainly because of the shade of the colors themselves. They look fake and cheap.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

why am i so excited to buy a stand?

Because I am so upset that I have yet to be able to preorder it.

 

[geomon]

So sexy. Like a stealth bomber. A sexy stealth bomber. Daddy like.

 

[myca77]

I really didn't like the blue or red controllers when I first saw them, but the blue one is now really tempting. Every other controller I have is black though (apart from the wired 360 for the PC).

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Want that red DS4. Will not only look fine but feel amazing in your hands.

 

[Jonboy]

Do we have an MRSP for the stand yet?

 

[ClearData]

Can't wait to snatch the box out of the UPS guy's hands before it touches my unworthy porch upon delivery. I'm going to be peeking out my front window with binoculars as I wait.

 

[Kerned]

The looks like a nice shade of blue on that DS4, but I'll stick with black.

They are very reminiscent of the 3DS XL colors.

 

[VicDaMoan03]

I guess the camera is called the PlayStation Camera? For some reason I thought it was called the PlayStation Eye.

 

[Neolith]

Are the stand and charging dock available for pre order anywhere in the states?

 

[goombatommy]

Wow, looks really nice!

 

[Like the hat?]

I wish they would have put the same touch panel pattern from the vita on the ds4. As is, it looks unfinished.

 

[gloriousd]

I'm so happy I didn't cancel my PS4 preorder. Also, I've never been so excited to buy a controller. The blue one is beautiful!

 

[stryke]

For some reason I prefer the red controller over the blue.

 

[GameAddict411]

You can at your own risk. But if it falls down and breaks don't go blaming Sony..

it's not going to tip over since it's going to be secured by my huge speaker and TV, i am asking this question if it's going to block some air ventilation or if it's going to be like the original PS3 slim where it's not stable at all when you put vertically without a stand.

 

[R3TRODYCE]

I want the red controller.

 

[pharmboy044]

Those colored controllers look badass.

The launch is just a month a way. I can't wait.

 

[megashock5]

When is Amazon US going to get the stand and charging station up for preorder? I want them.

Seriously. I check for the charging station every few days. Nothing.

 

[IonicSnake]

The wait is getting harder and harder with each day.

 

[LtOrange]

Seriously. I check for the charging station every few days. Nothing.

I keep doing the same thing.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

GOD DAMMIT

it's so close guys :<

 

[malfcn]

Very nice packaging.

 

[Chamber]

5...fucking...weeks...

When is SCEA going to tell us something about the colored controllers along with the official stand and charging stations?

 

[Radec]

My ps4 bundle comes with 2 controller, will probably sell those and get the blue one.

Sexy.

Also, why is it the vertical stand is not available in Amazon?

 

[bigmf]

I want the red controller. I got a red DS3 with that God of War all the games pack thing (how I wish they had a game and controller pack at launch), now I feel I need to continue on with red. 35 days...

 

[pixlexic]

I really like the final boxes .. Though I wish they would get rid of the details on the right and just have it solid blue with the console.

 

[timepiece]

Did they use a Powerpoint slide for the box designs?

Seems like it.

 

[Binabik15]

Colours on the controllers should be darker. The blue of the box is darker, the UI blue is darker, the swirl of face buttons has a darker blue, the blueray cases have a darker blue, darker blue looks better, anyway. 'nuff said.

The boxes are pretty sexy. The charger station is the best one, IMO, the PS4 box with the white area looks a bit too much like a kid discovering Photoshop's gradient function.

Spoiler

The PS2 box was best, though. Dat solid blue

 

[IvorB]

Hype levels have become unstable...

I upgraded my Amazon pre-order to "gamer bundle" so I got a copy of Killzone and the camera just for completeness. I can't believe this is only next month a new gen dawns. I think I will get the stand as well and possibly the charging cradle...

 

[Danielsan]

That's dirty.

So I'm not the only one who found this to look oddly sexual.

 

[Live Free or Die]

Awesome. The red controller is the best looking controller.

 

[flippedb]

I know the DS4 might be an amazing controller, but god damn, that shit is ugly! It really looks like a Madcatz version of DS3.

And it looks even worse when you see it next to the PS4, which is a sexy-ass console.
