Some examples:

In The Guardian (UK) it's the 4th most viewed news story. I also checked the Telegraph, no appearance.

In Spain's most popular newspaper (El Pais) it's the top story by views, despite all the shit that's going on. Spain in Sonyland confirmed.

I have talked to some people in Japan and they are aware it's launching at least.

How about in your area? Either in the media, what your friends have said, etc.

No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

A local radio show here said they watched the Sony press conference and were surprised that a console wasn't shown. Obviously their first rodeo.

My gamer friends are aware it was announced, but weren't interested enough to watch or read about it. The local paper either doesn't know or doesn't care enough to mention it.

Causing somewhat of a stirr in comestic media, especially online newspapers. Even the regional newspaper had a fairly large piece on it, but they've been writing more and more about gaming since 2010.

Most of my friends know, but are kinda pissed that they spent more than an hour for no actual look at the console.

1 of them posted on his FB raging at SE the moment IT happened.

As for the general community, doubt people know yet.

Hmm, hard to say. I've seen no news on TV and I did'nt read the newspaper today. I've talekd to one of my friend who is a big gamer about it. He saw the conference, said it was interesting but he his jaw did'nt drop on the floor. Other than that nothing, but I did'nt run around asking everyone I know if they heard about it so it's hard to say.

Right now in Chile(I remember they were higher when I first saw them):
El Mercurio: 9th most viewed news story
La Tercera: 6th most viewed story
La nación: Has it in its most important news in a minor spot

I remember PS4, Playstation4 and playstation2013 being trending topics in twitter and watching the info in the news in every national channel. Some of my friends also knew about it, but here we are on summer vacation so most people arent so informed about anything.

Most comments were positive and the negative focused on Sony not showing the console.
