Sony Finally Shows Off the PS4 Console in All Its Glory

Sony gave us the first taste of PS4 goodness way back in February and while we saw plenty of the new DualShock controller at the event, the company didn't offer so much as a glance at the actual console itself. Instead, Sony wanted to leave the surprise for E3. The company's E3 keynote was last night, and sure enough, we were afforded our first proper look at the PS4. Feast your eyes on the official images below:

    Looks like a brick. A very lopsided brick.

    At least it looks like something from 2013 and not 1998 like the crapbox one does.

    Give me a rectangular box if it makes it cheaper. It's not like you buy a console to look cool next to your tv.

    I hope the cooling is much better than PS3 launch model. From the looks of it, there are some improvements.
