Funny how people are saying this is too elaborate to be fake, when the same thing was said about a recent NX leak that turned out to be fake.

It's only slightly bigger than Dual Shock 4, there would be hardly any room for hardware once you got the hard drive inside. Unless it's actually using 500GB of magic?

The additional photos from the Ebay link make this seem more authentic. I am more surprised Sony stuck with a 500 GB hard drive though... I would have expected them to increase to at least 1 TB.

500GB is cheaper for Sony to put in this. If people want the bargain bottom price expect the bargain basement internals.

Sony will say upgrade the hard drive and/or buy a Neo.

Maybe Sony are going for available now conference release and stock has to obviously shipped early so a few might leak.

We should collect some money for a gaffer from Manchester go and buy it.

Better carry a knife with you brave gaffer from Manchester
 
Hmm...

Toss me into team real. Usually when GAF says something is fake and ugly, it turns out to be 100% real.

See PS3 slim and super slim for reference...

But real question, besides the ps logo in the center, what's the big difference here?

I really want to as well. I live on Manchester and I'm currently thinking about it. I did for Uncharted 4 2 weeks early and that wasn't fake.

Just stolen :p Sony confirmed that for UC4. That was a whole batch though. If this is real might just be a few units.

No UHD labeling? Wouldn't that be sort of a mistake for Sony not to have it on the Slim? Stupid choice if real.

This could also undercut the one S in price, don't forget that. People always love cheaper offerings in general

Sony also is not in a position where it needs to concern itself with Xbox ever catching up. I love my One S as it is but MS lost the war a long time ago
 
There wouldn't be a PEGI/ESRB logo on the box unless it came with a game.

Fake.

Manchester Gaffers should join forces and go to this guy's house together. That way your chances of getting jumped by the seller are slim

Im not sorry at all I did all this for a pun
 
If Sony were trying to make sure stores were stocked for a "...And you can buy it today!" reveal, this seems like when they would start shipping it out.

If real, it's possible the seller doesn't realize what he has, thinks it's just a PS4.

yup same for me. Apart for the 'PS4' logo looking quite big. I'm pretty sure this is legit.

What makes me think this is real:
- The 3d modeling of the ps4 is really good
- printing the box and stuff, why bother ?
- the console looks cheap to produce. like the ps3 slim was.

What makes me think it might be fake:

- cant see a power/eject button

Still #teamreal

the buttons seems to be below the Sony logo on the bottom lip

I guess the power and eject button are like the PS3 Slim and actual buttons on the front end of it now or something. Can't really tell by the box images.

This post isn't by me, it's by a guy with the same username as me.

He know what it is. The product listing says that's the newest slim that's not even on stores yet.
