So its been a year since the PS4 was announced on Feb 20th.

Does anyone have a link to the original reveal thread? Would be nice to read it again but I can't find on my phone.
 
The "OMG 8GDDR5 HOOOOOOLY SHIIIIIIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!111" freakout was one of my favorite GAF moments ever.
 
What a day that was. I didn't expect to have a PS4 before a year was past, and it's pretty nice. FFXIV beta in a few days, and I have this on PC and it runs amazing on mine, I'm just excited to play it on PS4 for some reason.

You should add a link to the PS4 event thread.
 
It was certainly fun watching it and guessing the games that were being shown. Good times. I loved both events. One of my fav things when it comes to new systems!
 
The actual event itself was a mixed bag, but it was damn good fun overall, both intentionally and unintentionally. So many gif-worthy moments, the birth of Mark Cerny, the birth of ... *cough*Knack.

Some duff trailers aside, hugely exciting stuff.
 
crazy how it took them less than a year to win the 'console war', props to sony. some blitzkrieg shit.
 
Fun year.

8gigs of GGR5? Imposable. It will cause overheating problems and its probably imposable to make that much GDDR5 RAM.

They will totally suck EA's dick and go DRM crazy like Microsoft. They NEED EA's full support.

No way they cant do all that for 399. They will bleed so much money.

Oh yeah, everyone was certain of a $499-$599 price point when the 8GB bomb dropped.
 
Aw, I miss those days of every thread being about RAM. Quality vs quantity, latency vs bandwidth; it brought out the best in GAF ;)

Still, that Kaz thread.
 
GAF was so hyped up for that reveal. :)

First bomb: Mark Cerny is on the hardware team and he's the Lead Architect!

Second bomb: 8GB GDDR5!

Third bomb: Magnificent OS features!

I feel we should put tweets from journalists and articles to display how far off people were. And "not showing a console, that's one way to reveal" quote
 
The moment they showed Killzone at PS meeting was probably the biggest wow I've ever had in my life. Right until I saw The Order trailer yesterday.

I'm looking forward to this year's PS meeting. Hopefully we get some news to chew on until E3.
