Any word from Sony yet regarding the leak?

Considering it's 99.9% stolen stock they will not comment (for now). Rather, investigate what has happened and get the authorities involved in whatever country the leak can be tied back to.

I mean it's all fun and great talking about breaking news/leaks, but as it sometimes is it'll be stolen goods we are discussing. Not just snaps from a warehouse.
 
Well, they did technically just win July and will most likely win August? That won't last but I'm not sure what else you'd want as a start.

Of course they'll win August. In the US. And only there. And that will be the last time for quite a while.

people are still trying to convince themselves that the og ps4 looks nice when it's actually ugly as fuck

so now something that actually looks nice comes along and some people see it as ugly as fuck because they've reset their preferences according to the og ps4 which was actually ugly as fuck

it's science
Um... hahaha.


It looks like a bigger playstation tv. It's alright though I still enjoy looking at my destiny ttk ps4.

I have superior Onkyo and amazing Pioneer 5.1 receivers.

None of them have HDMI, both have optical.

I want optic audio.

hate to break it to you dude, but its about time to let that ship sail and just upgrade...outdated tech (which optical is) just gets fazed out over time...

This post isn't by me, it's by a guy with the same username as me.

XB1 has been cheaper than PS4 for a damn long time know. Since black friday there's all this crazy deals on XB1 bundles where the final price of the console is like $150.

I'm not disputing that XB1 can win some months, i'm just saying that simply being cheaper is not a guarantee of more sales.

Can't believe there are people who think this looks good.

It's gone from a sleek, semi-shiny, cool slanted look to this Fisher Price toy appearance. Yuck.

You are overreacting a bit.

It uses same matte plastic as launch [and new all-mate CUH-1200] PS4. We have pictures that are either not perfectly clear, or filmed in night where slim was compared to more glosssy white PS4.

PS4 Slim will look good.

But NEO is rumoured to be launching in March now.

What a depressing day this has been :/

Yeah, makes sense to hold a Playstation Meeting for Neo launching 6/7 months later along with going against the words of the CEO of Playstation himself talking about an Apple style rollout.

Its October/November, wait and see - maybe even mid/late September.

Is this the normal change for canadian dollars? Didn't think it was that weak
Unfortunately yea.
If the Slim launches at $249 USD then it will probably be $299 CAD, which means $249 on Black Friday, $280 with tax. I think that's a shitton better deal than $630 for a Neo.

As much as I love my one S this is true, Xbox is never going to catch up, Sony won that war long ago, too much momentum is lost. Sony would have to pull of a OG XB1 level disaster to make that happen again

Yep if they won't mention Neo it's not coming out this year. If they'll talk about it will come out this year.
 
I bought my Samsung 4K HDR for $1000 last black friday. An equivalent will probably drop to the $700s on deals this Holiday.

TVs that actually support the UHD Premium specs to display HDR correctly, are quite expensive in decent sizes. For example, i spent 2300 Euro on a 60 inch Samsung this week.

Pretty sure. I googled the manual for my TV on my phone (LG 42LD650,) and it says that it can output 5.1 sound via optical (no 7.1, though...). I don't use optical speakers, though.

Usually just for internal sources (apps, digital cable/satellite using internal decoder), not for plugged-in sources/pass-through.

I don't really see how this is even all that relevant to people buying 4K TVs and wanting a UHD Blu-Ray player though. Are we implying that only people who buy the most expensive 4K televisions will want to watch 4K blu rays?
 
The design is a bit of a letdown considering how cool the OG PS4 looks. The textured plastic looks a bit cheap, but the slimmer form factor is nice even if it's not dramatically smaller. It's a bit of a shame it got leaked though.

So tomorrow. Do we think Sony addresses this or stay quiet?

I'm expecting them to stay quiet then do the whole "for the few of you who haven't seen it" joke at the event. They've still got to announce a price, release date and potentially any new features we don't know about.
 
Now, I don't speak Chinese, but ran the guy's post about the psp through a few different translators until I came up with something that made sense. This comes from the guy who leaked some bits on the slim, it sounds like he is on the production line at foxxcon working with boxes and cases.

Anyway, this source now seems quite legit, it's a matter of getting a good translation of what exactly he meant.


还有个老员工的消息是psp类似的机子开了几条生产线弄新机


Something about a psp camera, mobile phone, or something they've dedicated a few production lines to, according to a senior employee he works with?

There are different translations coming from everything I try:

1) psp-like device
2) psp-like mobile phone
3) psp camera for a phone
4) psp camera for new device
