PS4 already in the wild

One day that kid is gonna get rich and pull the same shit haha

I love my parents to death but that shit there....that would have been the day AWWWLL Nifleheim would have broken loose.
 
Think of it like the good Americans are testing the consoles for us. They can enjoy the bugs and we'll get the bug-free versions by then.

I can handle the wait, I just couldn't understand why people were complaining about the kid's dad being VP of Marketing or something at Sony.

I just want a UI walkthrough and I'll be happy :p

This. All I want is UI goodness. Friday can take its time.

Not really. I'm about ready to burst and spill out into the streets.
 
Amazon chose them to be the ones to deliver Killzone Shadow Fall to me. So I wouldn't be surprised if they do the same with my PS4 order. I'm never gonna get shit at this rate.

I seriously hope that they just go with UPS for the East Coast, I'm sure they will. Amazon is fully aware that Lasership is a horrible courier but yet, they continue to use them, because they're cheap. But since this is a big ticket item that has an insane amount of pre-orders I anticipate that they decided to go with the courier that's more reliable.

Or I'm wrong and Lasership will steal all of our shit.
 
Wish I could forget I've seen this video. It is seriously disturbing.

Man that shit is not funny. Cruel family. Don't ever do this to your kids, fellow gafers.

Man! If I knew this kid, I'd buy him a 360.

I don't think that's remotely funny to be honest. I'd question those parents.

I really hate that video (or rather, what occurs in it) but that comparison is too good.

Damn...I wonder if he ever got that 360

Gosh...I feel sorry for that poor kid. I can see the hurt on his face. :(
He did get a 360 in the end.
 
I think I am reaching the point of going on a media blackout. The system is only about five days away now, and while I really want to see the UI in action, I think seeing it for the first time when I boot it up myself would be a lot more fun. I'm also not even concerned with seeing any game reviews, as I already have everything pre-ordered on PSN, so no going back anyway and I already know ACIV and BF4 are awesome from playing a small portion of the current gen versions.

If we were still a few weeks to a month out from launch, I would absolutely dive into a UI video, but at this point, why bother when you could save the experience for launch night?

Totally agree. I want to experience that UI unspoiled.

My parents did the exact opposite of this to me when I was a kid. They put a turbografx-16 in a fucking box for a humidifier or some shit. I think they still have my reaction on a tape somewhere too

Yeah, my parents have done stuff like that, and doing that is cool actually, because it ends in everyone enjoying and getting what they want. The parents get to 'trick' the child and end up getting what they want and giving them great joy. The child gets what he/she wants as a big surprise.

What the family did in the video is a cruel joke where they have fun and laugh at someone else's misfortune.
 
^^^ This.

Apparently he peeked under the wrapping of his present a few days earlier, so his parents put clothes in the box to teach him a lesson.

Ha ha. I guess I missed that part. If so, then it's not so bad. Well, it's still kind of cruel but in the end they gave him the 360 which is alright in my book.

It's hilarious, I used to peak at all of my presents and I never got caught. I was a sneaky son of a gun.
 
I work near the London Studio and I'm pretty sure I saw a guy leaving the building with a PS4 in hand, albeit hidden away.

I should've mugged him...
 
You don't feel it will be a scripted presentation? Sure, you could argue that you'll still get new info on stuff, but it's not as fun. My entitled self wants to be informed and entertained! Although, if he goes off script and a ban message eventually appears, I'd settle for that.

That's not what I was talking about at all. I couldn't care less. I was saying he should have read the thread because he'd have seen a lot of skeptical GAFers raising the exact point he said wasn't being raised.

Do try to keep up.
