Somehow ppl seem to recognize the trillons of Kaz-gifs and forum-comments and forum-fanboyism as media-attention... Look at Ni No Kuni - if you only read forums you could think this game is a potential system-seller and will easily sell several millions but then you look at the actual sales... Or look at the big PSV-thread here at vgchartz ;) |
Ding ding ding!! What do we have for him, Johnny?
I haven't noticed any super amount of media coverage. Mostly because you know, Sony hasn't actually unveiled anything yet. So the gaming related media is making a big deal about it, and the Sony fans are making a big deal about it and Kaz'ifying all of their Internets, but that doesn't mean there's huge media coverage.
And some of those Sony fans in this thread seem upset that people are comparing the pre-launch Wii or Dreamcast or 360 or N64 hype to the PS4 hype that exists right now. Isn't this what the OP asked to do? It doesn't say "oh by the way you can only compare it to hype for other consoles PRE special rumored reveal events that aren't official reveals!!!!". This whole special PS meeting thing is serving the same purpose as a reveal event. The hype is there. But it's not as big as other consoles. The Wii hype by EVERYONE and the 360 hype leading up to the MTV reveal were larger imho.
