So it has come down to this. The only thing standing between you and the official reveal of the PlayStation 4 are the numbers you see on this page.

Trust us; this isn't up for debate. CVG can guarantee that the next generation home PlayStation console will be announced in New York on Wednesday. Sources that have confirmed this are numerous, increasing by the day, all connected to Sony and absolutely trusted. It's happening.

Yes, we're hyped. While industry experts irrationally declare the death of the console, you'll see no such attention-seeking cynicism here. We are unashamedly, unreservedly thrilled to usher in a new era of core game systems - and, deep down, we know you are too.

Our PS4 Countdown blog kicks off a week of coverage including analysis of what we know about Orbis (the codename for Sony's next console) and what's likely to be announced in New York.

On February 20 at 6pm Eastern Time (11pm UK) we will stream live video of the PlayStation Meeting right here on this page.

We'll also include our own reactions via a live blog manned by our man in New York, along with a full news team at battle stations offering the fastest stories and finest analysis available.

Get ready. It's just a matter of time now.

Sony Teasing Something Big For February 20th, Possibly PS4

Quote:

If this isn’t teasing the PS4, it’s one hell of a cheeky troll from Sony. That said, it’s pretty likely that the February PlayStation Meeting will indeed be focused on next generation.

The event will be held in New York in approximately three weeks, and whilst the video below gives little away, there’s enough chatter on Twitter from the likes of Geoff Keighley to suggest Sony are about to kick things up a gear.

Sony is inviting investors and media to the Feb 20 event; that means console announcement. I'm genuinely excited, although I will be in LA

!!!!!!!!!

Why? You won't have to buy it the day it gets released.

Mavrick · 01-31-2013, 10:47 PM

No way man sooner the better! Your move Microsoft!

Mavrick · 01-31-2013, 10:49 PM

Hopefully the mods can open up a PS4 section now

SethRex · 01-31-2013, 10:57 PM

I won't buy it right away, but I am definitely eager to see what they have to offer.

F13BluRay · 01-31-2013, 11:00 PM

Exactly right. Wasn't planning on it. I just havent gotten my full use out of the PS3 yet is all

xtop · 01-31-2013, 11:01 PM

not that i think it'll be anything but a ps4 announcement, but shouldn't that be a question mark and not an exclamation. there's no proof that's what they're announcing.

also. yay!

They use meetings to reveal hardware plus Micheal Pachter said so

Plus I have faith in God, and he wouldn't be so cruel

Having said that I predicted the downfall of HMV the week before they went into administration, so I probably am jinxing it!

Galactus · 01-31-2013, 11:08 PM

Awesome news but I'm not done with this gen yet there are still so many games I've yet to play.

I'd like to see them make Mega Man X9 for PS3 though.

Mavrick · 01-31-2013, 11:11 PM

Next gen launch window will be epic, the FPS croud will have BF4 with 64 player online 1080p @ 60fps

MW IV for the casuals

Watch_Dogs for the new IP croud Star Wars 1313 for the sci fi fan. And maybe even a Metal Gear Solid game!

Who knows what games they will reveal on the 20th. I can't freaking wait.

SethRex · 01-31-2013, 11:13 PM

All I truly want to know is if it will be Backwards compatable with Playstation 3 games...so when the time comes and I do buy a PS4, I can gladly sell my PS3 in.

dyne · 01-31-2013, 11:17 PM

I'm so ready to accept this into my life.

boredandlazy · 01-31-2013, 11:21 PM

Even if a PS4 is released later this year, I somehow don't think I'll be disconnecting my PS3 anytime soon.

RaijinUT · 01-31-2013, 11:21 PM

YAY!!!

Finally some real info for us all.
