I thought it was a well thought out article. Good read. First paragraph for you:

Yesterday was a very exciting day for me. Once 5 o’clock hit, I live on the east coast, my friends and I rushed to meetup to watch what Sony has in store for the next generation. This was a long time coming. We’ve been scanning the forums and pooling over rumors, debating topics like RAM amount vs speed. We were also excited to see what the “jump” would be over the PS3. After all it has been over 6 years since Sony last released a home console. I must admit while watching the conference I was incredibly pleased with what I saw. I was handing out high fives like candy at Halloween when Sony announced the PS4 would have 8 GB of Unified GDDR5 Memory. The same could be said when they discussed better support and integration with the Vita. The modifications to the DualShock, the share button, the game and tech demos were all great. In essence what I was looking at was the best case scenario for Sony. There are some things yet to be seen and some key titles as well, but I thought what an exciting time this was to be in. However, once the dust had settled, I started going through the comments on various websites. What I saw there was a different picture. That it was all a let down.

i wasn't let down. the show was worth the wait with more coming at E3.

Who sits around high fiving their friends while watching a conference? Are they like 12?

Wow, impressive article, even if I did skim over some of the technical bits.

I can't help but agree. I was very happy with the PS4 presentation, then quite surprised when I found the internet was trying to tell me that I should be unhappy instead. I still can't believe it, that people try so very hard to be down about positive things. It's almost funny.

Great analysis. There are way too many misinformed or ill willed flooding the internet with garbage.

People who are really excited and passionate about video games?

For fucks sakes, people try too hard to sound cynical these days.

Good read, thank you.

The show was great

Most of the naysayers decided what they thought of the conference and PS4 before it even started. Then again most of us decided it was amazing before it started.

typical internet, if the next iPhone cured cancer there would still be people bitching about it. i loved every second of it... oh wait all but sqex, come on guys your my number 1 wtf was that. and yes i will be excited for e3, no need to beg for it
