Don't like it at all.

This is what the PS4 should look like:

A roomba vacuum cleaner?.

 

[CosmicGroinPull]

Oh thank goodness it's fake. Hated the way it looks.

 

[NaviLink]

I'm gonna be a betting man for once and bet this is a real ad.

 

[Ryuhza]

Don't like it at all.

This is what the PS4 should look like:

One USB port, "4k" at the top instead of PS4, useless circular design, no visible Blu-ray Drive. Looks like a winner.

hahaha

Are you suggesting neogaf is not an expert?

 

[Chittagong]

Looks totally fake, and that wifi icon is lol

 

[ElRenoRaven]

That's one sexy looking box.

That shot really shows how fake it is though. The reflection has several issues.

 

[Baconsammy]

Looks like someone took the fake Xbox mockup and changed the green light to blue.

 

[shinobi602]

That's probably real.

Looks like a commercial Sony would make. I remember all the fake claims about the PS3 slim when it was first shown in production on GAF.

I'm ok with that box.

It's not:

I believe I have found the problem. It states on the console that it can play CDs when infact it doesn't.

 

[cacildo]

I will never buy a ps4, but if this is the final design.... i like it a lot.

I think its pretty and unusual

 

[Dead Prince]

A roomba vacuum cleaner?.

no a hockey puck.

 

[DopeyFish]

reflections are wrong

 

[Jonboy]

If that's a fake ad, it's the best i've ever seen.

Agreed. I'm wondering if all the people saying fake actually watched the video. That looks very well-made.

I agree it looks completely legit to me. I love the ad and the box. Hope it's real.

 

[Cmerrill]

Clearly fake.

Incoming Kotaku article..

 

[Rawket Lawnchair]

Looks like a router.

 

[MikeE21286]

also, not enough hash tags at the end.

ooohhh that's a good point.

I'm on #teamfake now

 

[Windom Earle]

Video is too professional to be fake, yes. Have we seen the game footage before?

 

[VE3TRO]

Thats a big ass console. Looks fake.

 

[Az]

I was teamCG so you know I am crazy. Real.

 

[Z3M0G]

Even if it was (which I'm doubting it is due to the CD thing) a CG target render, would an official video using a CG target render be something to call "fake" on?

Don't MANY car commercials use CG renderings of their cars?

 

[Midou]

Agreed. I'm wondering if all the people saying fake actually watched the video. That looks very well-made.

I agree it looks completely legit to me. I love the ad and the box. Hope it's real.

Yeah, I mean there are issues in the rendering of the system, but it could just be a CGI they threw together to make it stand out. All the people with their eyes being symbols seems like way too much effort for a fake.

 

[tapedeck]

I'm gonna be a betting man for once and bet this is a real ad.

The ad looks like it could (and should) be real, the console itself however doesnt.

 

[alr1ght]

If that's a fake ad, it's the best i've ever seen.

[Kun Aguero]

Fake, the light running through the Y of SONY isn't casting a reflection, yet the word SONY is casting a reflection.

 

[CaptainTiptop]

Thought it was real until I saw the box...

It's pretty convincing besides that.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Would they really use the exact same few seconds even flashing the controller and camera on a white backround that they did in the PS4 montage? Seems giga fake to me.

 

[Lulubop]

Tacky.

 

[Tan]

Yeah, I'm not believing any part of this. #TeamFake

[Darryl]

it's a very good commercial. it just looks fakey fake though. where is the text?

 

[blackflag]

I like the design but yeah they need to have an off or dimmer for the blue light.

Hope it's real. I liked the commercial.

 

[Mindwipe]

Fake, but I like it.

 

[DieH@rd]

I think this is real, and the design is fine. Big black box, just as it was expected.

Now that thread was legendary. It took a long time before people started believeing that PS3 Slim design was real.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

A poll would be very interesting.

 

[Zukuu]

The actual ad could be real, but the console could be cut into.

Not sure if fake or not, tho. I doubt that it'll shine so bright, that would be disturbing while playing.

 

[Stoffinator]

Can anybody tell how many USB slots it has?

 

[DR3AM]

Everything screams fake but the production value of the video makes it seem legit. Still believe it's a fake though.

 

[Bleedorang3]

Yeah, this is definitely real. Way too well done to be a fake.

 

[PopcornMegaphone]

Looks fake, but a very good fake.

 

[pharmboy044]

Hasn't Sony already used this type of ad in Japan?

 

[CosmicGroinPull]

That shot really shows how fake it is though. The reflection has several issues.

The closeup shot of the USB ports is obviously CG, but it could still be placeholder.

What gives it away, upon further consideration, is the amateurish design. Ugly led strip snaking around the drive slot, etc, etc.

 

[PetriP-TNT]

The non-CG parts are very well made but the console parts itself aren't. Someone just find the ad where the people were taken from.

 

[Hrothgar]

If it were real, it has definitely taken a page out of the clean design of the Xperia Z/ZL.

 

[SRTtoZ]

Fake, the light running through the Y of SONY isn't casting a reflection, yet the word SONY is casting a reflection.

This is the moon landing hoax all over again.

 

[Dragon]

Yeah, this is definitely real. Way too well done to be a fake.

Not sure I follow the reasoning. I don't know enough about video editing really to call it one way or another.

 

[MikeE21286]

It's not:

I love detective GAF

 

[FluxWaveZ]

It's glowing and shit. As long as the lights could be dimmed, I'd be into it. Leaning more towards fake than real for now.
