VIDEO: PlayStation 4 hardware revealed in (fake) video

For a brief, brief moment this was the most exciting thing we’d seen all year.

And even after Sony confirmed to Kotaku that it’s a fake, this PlayStation 4 reveal video is a hint of the excitement that awaits at E3 next month.

The 44-second video is certainly slick but its most compelling inclusion is a render of the machine itself. The chances of PS4 looking even remotely like this are slim, of course, but it’s great to see some artistic speculation nonetheless.

The included gameplay footage is from Infamous: Second Sun, incidentally.
