Our Photos From Last Night's PlayStation 4 Announcement
Written Thursday, February 21, 2013 By Lee Bradley

The PlayStation 4 was announced last night at a special event in New York, and we were right there in the front row scribbling notes and taking photos throughout.

Well, that's a lie, we were in the sixth row, but you get the point.

Below you'll see a selection of our snaps, showcasing everything from Sony's flashy event set-up, to some of the key players and demos. Most importantly, however, we also got one of Yoshinori Ono's adorably little face. Bless his heart.

You can see even more pictures in our gallery, and for further reading (and watching) click the links for our latest coverage.

Man. I want almost all the games shown. Most excited for Watch Dogs.
I'm kind of disappointed in the controller still. Microsoft and Sony should really come to terms with the controllers. Allow each other to have models like the other console.

Pre-ordering as soon as the console is listed and priced. Hoping to get Destiny, Diablo III, Watch_Dogs and Killzone: Shadow Fall. They all look epic. :P

I said "OH SHIT" out loud when they showed that. That's a bad "OH SHIT" by the way. It looks like the Playstation Store. If that's the new PS4 GUI, I'm not sure I want one. If there's two things that can be said about the new Playstation Store, it's that is utterly utterly utterly slow and extremely unorganized. If they're basing PS4's GUI around that coding... I don't want a console that's super slow and hides my stuff from me.

@#9 Agreed about that menu. I'm sure I'd get used to it considering I'd primarily use the PS4 to play games, not look at the menu. But still, I like the XMB. Its not the best GUI, but with a little optimization and little improvements, it would be the best GUI. Its straightforward to look at, functional, and clean. Hate these messy metro style interfaces that are so popular for some reason.

Still need to see more about the PS4 though. We just don't know enough yet.

@9 Yep, same here. If that's their planned interface, then people need to speak up and tell Sony that shit isn't going to fly. As much as I hate it, I can live with all the social integration bullshit, but if they build the entire interface around this social metro-looking bullshit...my God, I really don't have words for how angry I'll be. It'll be as amazing as Windows 8 on a desktop computer.

I must be the only one that kinda likes the metro look... I mean, it could definitely use some improvement, since my favorite part of the XMB is album organization.

But I mean, I think the new Store is only as slow as it is because of the teeeny tiny bit of processing power of the PS3. With the vastly improved hardware on the PS4, it could be incredibly smooth and beautiful. They did push immediacy in the announcement yesterday after all.

I think between now and launch, they'll have developed a very sleek and efficient GUI for us to use.

@14 The actual console has not been shown yet. Some of us are spectulating that Sony will show off the console at E3.

They're demoing Killzone on Jimmy Fallon tonight. We might get to see what the console looks like... maybe not, but it would be a nice pic to add to the collection.

The console has been priced already for pre-orders in Australia for $899.00 AUD, they are calling it a placeholders price as final price is yet to be confirmed, check it out at www.ebgames.com.au, let's hope the genuine release price for Australia is a little less.

The interface looks awful. It looks like Sony purposely designed the PS4 GUI to rival Windows 8 in being fucking awful.

If watch dogs and destiny plans to come out a little after the ps4 release then its day one for me otherwise I think im going to play these next gen consoles smart (as in wait a year after all the fixes are made and they release new versions of the console like the other few)
