PS4 Mock "flexible touchscreen technology"

[ArmedllllKiLLa]

For instance, we've already heard that Sony has supposedly decided upon the specs for the PS4, which quickly incited a firestorm of discussion. And now, in speaking to PlayStation: The Official Magazine, freelance designer Tai Chiem has provided us with some Prototype pics of what Sony's machine could look like. It's all sorts of futuristic with plenty of style and panache, and a definite departure from your standard PlayStation designs of the past.

Mock-ups include the possibility of a flexible touchscreen, a technology that "is currently being developed" and therefore could find its way into the PS4. Chiem says Samsung is already in the process of producing transparent screens and while he says the idea is still "cost prohibitive," it could still become a reality "in the next five to ten years." For our part, this space-age design is definitely a head-turner, but of course, it's hardly official. We expect it'll be a good long while before Sony offers anything official concerning the PS4.

Here's some more pics of the mock PS4:





So what do u think?

Damn dude...
Like, pretty small screen for me to play a game on :P But it's still badass...
Although, whatever the final version of the PS4 may be, it'll most likely be much different.

Well seeing as is all the "Mockups" are round... I think sony might be shooting for a round design when the PS4 comes around

Yeah probably... who knows, long time away.

@nx.dcr
Good point, not sure about that because they never said anything more or related to that.

just an idea,
cause i highly doubt they plan on selling a system with that little of a screen, ya know?

Eh, never trust shit till it's official. Anyone remember when this was supposed to be the PS3 controlller?

They changed their minds.
