My problem with that Kaz tweet, and it may have been mentioned, is that Doritos are NOT potato chips, they're tortilla chips.
True. But I'm dying for Geoff to point that out, then Kaz can come back with 'Well i guess you'd know' or something.

Maybe Gaikai will bring some of these plans to light.
The typeface currently used is Nimbus Sans (Bold I think). They still use the original PlayStation logo for trade shows (GDC for example) and in certain documents.the smoother PS logo is fine, but bring back the original PlayStation font
it's so good. i hate the one they switched to w/ the psp
They should just call it PlayStation. If they end up making a fifth console in eight years, you can go back to PS5 no problem.
That happened to me as soon as I saw the thread title.Finally!
I follow Sony religiously since I got my ps1. So hyped!
But I'm also nervous. I want/need this to be awesome. After the event I'd better be looking for my jaw. It's been ages since that happened...

i hope they wont call it Playstation Future
At least make it look less pathetic, we have marketing teams for that right?
They should go with The Fast and Furious naming scheme
After Playstation (note the lowercase 's' to differentiate it from the original), they could have Play 5 and Station 6.
Shame we missed 2 Play 2 Station and PlayStation: Tokyo Drift.
Sony is 100 percent certain to announce the PlayStation 4 at a Feb. 20 event, said analyst Michael Pachter of Wedbush Securities in Los Angeles, citing his checks with game developers and retailers.
Sonys new console would replace the nearly 7-year-old PlayStation 3. It will feature graphic chips developed by Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (AMD) and processors capable of rendering games at 240 frames a second, Pachter said.
Pachter said things again. This time to Bloomberg.

"two hundred and forty U.S. frames per second"

The PS3 chipset could render a game at 240fps, Mr Pachter.
599 U.S. frames per secondThey should make it display 599 frames per second.
Can someone explain that twitter joke to me? I'm serious, I don't get it.

Guys, you realize the meeting is in NY and not Tokyo, right? This means:
Sony just shot themselves in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the japanese public, after hearing about that the Playstation meeting is in NYC and that the PS4 is developed by western developers for western tastes, is not going to want to purchase PS4, nor will they purchase any of Sony's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Sony has alienated an entire market with this move. The PS4 is nothing more than a dudebroshooter console in the Japanese public's eyes and it'll sell as good as the Xbox did in Japan.
Sony, publicly apologize and cancel the Playstation meeting in New York or you can kiss your business goodbye.
Japanese people like handhelds, and japanese developers want the less powerful machine possible.
Sony presented Vita in Japan in 2011 and it sells like shit anyway.
PS4 will have even worse japanese support in the first years because of the increasing budgets required to develop for. NA market is the key, and is where microsoft dominates, Sony need to do something. Japan presentation with western games is pointless.
...processors capable of rendering games at 240 frames a second, Pachter said.
Yeah. These things are kind of pointless.
But where something like '240fps' could actually show up...maybe the new camera? Two interleaved 120hz PSeyes feeding 240 (alternate angle) frames per second for Move/motion tracking? I dunno. Random thought.
