I know which console I would buy if that happened and it is not the PS4. Many around me would do the same thing.
The problem with Sony fanatics is that they overvalue the Sony-exlusive games or the japanese games, its something left over from the PS1 and 2-years I cannot understand. Neither Killzone or any japanese game like FFXIII or Guardian something something will sell consoles to "nonbelievers".
yes and a timed exclusive on next gen consoles until feb/mar 2014 could be easily payed for by any part. Publishers would not loose a massive amount of sales in the release stage of a console and the exclusivity would give their brand lots of free marketing since MS or Sony would market the shit out of any exclusive game. What will happen is that a major title being exclusive until early next year will give the console a big advantage in the holiday sales as well as in selling to the early adopters.
most people have forgot about the Final Fantasy brand if they even know what it is nowadays. FF only matters to a small margin of todays game consumers.
I was going to make a GAF-Design type thread in which fellow GAFers posted their own diesngs/wishful thinking/concept for PS4/Xbox. So far the only other GAF member I've seen post anything was Cory's XBox brnading (which I personally thought was pretty good). I doubt either of us warrant a new thread (I think his stuff does IMO), so I'll just post this here I had posted some of my concept before, I spent a few hours today expanding the idea. I was working on how the actual packaging would work/look because I'm a sucker for good packaging but I didn't have time today.
Alternate casing
(My preference)
To make a long explanation short, I got the idea of angles from Sony's current products, particularly the often posted BR player. I felt that a console that's angle would be a pain to rest controllers and other objects on. So instead of an actual angled device, the angles would be part of the overall Playstation 4 branding. Angles are found in many things, think of hubs and networking if you look at a diagram of say a star topography you get angles everywhere. I feel that overall I think Sony's branding of Playstation is weaker than MS' Xbox branding, at least in the sense of actual design, not to say mine is really any better.
As for the game casing, it's actually suppose to be a opaque white along the lines of Wii casing instead of the clear case we have now. You can see where laziness got the best of me.
I would not call 320 gb a very large hard drive....
everything looks great beside the actual console. That packaging would sell products on its own.

An exclusive FF will no doubt sell a lot of PS4's. FF fan base is massive, and its one of the most iconic rpgs in the gaming industry.
I doubt MS or Sony will have any timed exclusives of big games like GTA, COD or BF.
6-7 million is small now lol. People aren't going to forget FF because of FF13. All it takes is another great FF like FF7 or FFX to invigorate the series.
[/QUOTE]
What is this shit? FFXIII sold over 6 million copies and even FFXIII-2 shipped like over 3 million, so people still buy and know what the series is. If PS4 gets an exclusive Final Fantasy like Versus or XV, IMO it would sell more consoles than some timed exclusive DLC on multiplatform game.

Dayum as usual tusken you do some pretty fine work.
I remember you had kazified my avatar (still have it for the big announcements). Any chance you could try and cernify it please?
I really can't wait to see some more details of Knack, as it was the highlight of the conference for me. Going back to the Crash and Spyro days of 3d platform mechanics with a charming art style and a story that doesn't treat me like I'm 5, with an endearing main character, directed by one of the best game designers on the planet? Hell yes.
Uhhh... No. Brand is still selling well, even the supposedly mediocre follow-up games (say supposedly since I haven't played em yet). Not to mention if a game like Versus is shown to be exclusive and gets coverage (through sony's press conference), it's pretty much guaranteed be a megaton/sales booster.
The Versus aesthetics/trailers/music combination actually have had a much wider appeal than the average final fantasy game of recent years. Pretty much anyone I've shown the trailer to, final fantasy and non-final fantasy-type gamers expressed interest in it. Even some non-gamers went "that looks good."

That coverart for Second Son looks beautiful.
Oh gosh, why must I wait. I got to get another filling of infamous 2 to keep me excited. Too much hype for that game.
These are pretty great concepts and would stand out in game shops by being more subdued designs than what we are used to with other systems.
Your console design is especially beautiful when standing vertically and very reminiscent of the PS2 while still following its own distinct design pattern.
I'm looking for some videos of full old Sony E3 press conferences. The earliest I was able to find is Sony E3 2004 :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cg-Zanga13Y
I'd appreciate if anyone would share links to even older conferences and or showcases.
Edit: ATM watching the 2005 presentation... If it weren't for Agnis' Philosophy, I would definitely encourage a Final Fantasy IX tech demo on PS4.
Ahh, lights off... lights on, PS3 on the stand, 30 seconds of pure impact. Great!

You guys should stop talking about Final Fantasy. Square is in pretty bad shape financially, their plans might have changed.
Nope.

Yea I'm hoping they go with that for the actual cover art, but I doubt we'll be so lucky. I expect some cliche dude standing dead center blue/orange color scheme with dirt/smoke everywhere
Thanks, I designed it paying homage to the PS2 but still being it's own thing. Nostalgia is very underrated when designing and product with the intention to induce excitement.

So this must be the reason why we are getting news about The Last of Us and Killzone Mercenaries. My guess is that embargo on other games at the event will be lifted soon. Perhaps Until Dawn and more Puppeteer?

For us old school cats... this is just awesome.
May not fit the theme but here are some other options.
Swingers
True Romance (OMFG the fun that could be had with this, a youtube vid of someone playing Bronson Pinchot role in the elevator or in the car would be awesome, or the Dennis Hopper and Christopher Walken scene, or the Samuel Jackson and Gary Oldman with DJ Quick scene or .... James Gandolfini and Patricia Arquette hotel scene) Hell True Romance could be an E3 Movie..

Excellent work to both Angelus and Tusk! I love Heat.
Whoa, that would mean that they are getting current gen games out of the way for announcing stuff at E3. Hype is slowly rising.

iOS before Vita. I totally expect that.
Not even kidding. I have a feeling they will do something like that. *sigh* poor vita...

As Chad Warden would say, that shit is slick. Especially loving the make-shift white case with the Second Son cover art. Whatever eventually is released as the cover for the game will look disappointing compared to that.

How long is the conference?
I'm sure you don't want them to spend too much time on PS3/Vita games unless they are big announcements. So, they held the event to get updates on games out of the way.

yes because Multiplatform has worked out so well for them
1.5 - 2 hours.
Thinking 2 hours.
Yeah, blue and black is what I'm expecting.
The OCD in me hates that the logo isn't centered though.

This was posted on the rain Facebook page earlier today
So it seems like all of Sony's games were there.
10 minutes on the yearly Playstation family/sales talk, 30 minutes for PS3/Vita and the rest for the PS4. Hopefully.

Unless they show Vita and PS3 titles before the actual conference the conference itself will be 3 hours long or maybe even longer. They have a lot to show and a lot to cover.
People seem to be forgetting that we haven't actually seen extended gameplay for Knack, Killzone, Infamous, or Drive Club. So they'll likely be showing those titles. And they'll likely be making announcements and teasing new games. They also have to discuss things like their OS and online plans in more detail. And third party titles will be showcased. All of this is just for the PS4.

I think that they almost have to show the Vita there just to show that they haven't given up on it. They can't gloss over it like they did last year.
With the rumors of how much they have to show on the PS4 i'm actually wondering if they'll show demos of those games before E3 so that everything we see at the event is completely new. That'll allow them to not spoil their E3 news like they have in the past while gradually ramping up the hype for their presentation.
As someone who went full-hype on Sony Feb 20th revealing I have not yet posted in here.
HYPE!
I can't wait for the PS4, how it will look (in my house!), the exclusives, the community, the love for Europe, what PS Plus can improve/become. I was sure about selling my PS3 but with such great titles there's no way I can sell it yet! I've nerver got any system Day One. I always wait a bit to see if there's any major hardware problems or any concerning news but so far my only problem is to decide how much money will all this cost me. I'm very curious about E3 and I really can't wait for them to show us the PS4. After that I only need two things:
When and how much.
Anyway, HYPE!

Final Fantasy is still a major franchise. It's not Call of Duty big, but it has a large fan base that will definitely pick up the PS4 just in order to play those games. That's the goal. It also won't cost Sony an arm and a leg. I don't like Microsoft's strategy of securing what amounts to timed DLC. Having a three month exclusive window for map packs and such won't make me pick the Durango version of a game. I'll simply wait for the DLC to come out for the PS4 version with no problems at all.
I think they have to demo at least Drive Club because Microsoft will definitely be showing Forza and/or Project Gotham.

Playable on show floor but doubt stage time other than sizzle reel.
