PlayStation 4 Trailer Hoax Hits The Web

May 13, 2013 by Ian Miles Cheong

There’s this video circulating around purporting to be the trailer of the PlayStation 4. We don’t think it’s real.

There's a video out that's purporting to be a teaser for the next gen PlayStation 4. It features what looks like the PlayStation 4, seen below:

A bunch of people's faces with X, Square, Circle, and Triangle buttons in their eyes, some techno music, and weirdly enough, really grainy footage of Infamous: Second Son—you know, the stuff that got shown at the PlayStation 4 reveal months ago. That exact same footage. Yeah.

So it occurs to me that the concept may be something completely unofficial, designed by a team or a guy or whatever wanting to trick people into believing his or her hoax for the PlayStation 4. There's just no way any of it is real, but it's well worth the watch so you can see if I'm getting in way over my head with my cynicism or if you think I'm right.

Watch the video below.

Full credit goes to NeoGAF, where this thing first surfaced.
