If it is a PS4 announcment don't expect too much,they will tease a few stuff then reveal most at E3
Sony released a high end Blu Ray player last week, which is rumoured to be a new stylistic direction that the PS4 might also take.
Probably another slow news day article but daum that thing looks awesome, if that actually was the PS4 I'd buy it!
I will laugh if there is nothing shown for ps4 or gt6.
I wouldn't get my hopes up on anything related to any specific title.
I'm interested to see how in depth they go on the subject and how much they save for June.

TokoTurismoAre you hoping it doesn't it? lol
All I need is a name, generic specs, and a confirmed Q4 2013 release date and BOOM. Headshot
Jesus, grow up man.
All my life I helped Sony fight the console wars
On February 20th I believe they can end it.
What can we expect though other than an announcment?,when they announced the PS3 what did they do then?

WSJ is guessing like the rest of the websites. It's only officially a 'future of playstation event'.

Until now we've heard nothing about the upcoming games for the PS4, probably because they have to wait until Sony gives a green light for doing so. My guess is that that will happen as soon as the PS4 is revealed in a few weeks time. And that from then on, the game studios are free to show as much as they like, within their own time frame. Except for general PS4 features that Sony want to keep secret for a longer time.I don't think there would be much to be expected other than officially announcing that the orbis exists. I'd wait until E3/TGS before revealing more about orbis. Hype train and all.
Development sources with working knowledge of both next generation consoles have told us that PlayStation 4 will be more powerful than the next Xbox, will ship with a redesigned controller and launch by the end of the year in Japan and the US. PlayStation 4’s European launch will follow in early 2014.
Sony is set to reveal its next PlayStation on Wednesday February 20th at an event dubbed ‘see the future’. Sony Computer Entertainment released a teaser video last night to announce the event. Below, our sources revealed what to expect from PlayStation 4.
The controller
Sources close to the hardware have revealed to us that PS4 will ship with a redesigned controller which is the same size as an existing DualShock but features a small touchpad in place of the existing Select, Start and PS buttons. The tech is based on Vita’s rear touchpad, and is similarly responsive in use.
A new Share button on the controller will, when pressed, launch a new feature that will allow screenshots and video to be distributed online. The PS4 hardware will continually record the most recent 15 minutes of onscreen action (with no processing penalty, claims our source), which users will then be able to edit and broadcast via the Internet.
The launch
We’re told that PlayStation 4 will launch in Japan and the US by Christmas, with a Euro rollout following in early 2014, the delay attributed to the complexities involved in European distribution. Alongside the console, Sony will also introduce a new, improved iteration of its PlayStation Eye peripheral, which remains compatible with the PlayStation Move controller. Move will be available at launch, but it’s not clear yet whether it will be bundled with the hardware. Sony has already earned an enormous amount of goodwill among studios working with PS4 development hardware. Privately, Sony representatives have conceded that the company made a mistake in creating such esoteric architecture for PS3, and its strategy for PS4 gives developers more opportunities this time around, notably because the hardware is much more PC-like in its makeup than PS3.
We have confirmed with sources that recently leaked tech specs are accurate. Though Durango devkits offer 8GB of DDR3 RAM, compared to Orbis’s 4GB, Sony’s GDDR5 solution is capable of moving data at 176 gigabytes per second, which should eliminate the sort of bottlenecks that hampered PS3 game performance. Importantly, we’ve learned that Sony has told developers that it is pushing for the final PS4 RAM to match up to Microsoft’s 8GB.
Both platforms are driven by eight-core AMD CPUs clocked at 1.6GHz, with Microsoft opting for a D3D11.x GPU from an unknown source and Sony utilising a more capable solution in AMD’s ‘R10XX’ architecture, alongside the so-called ‘Liverpool’ system-on-chip.
It’s clear Sony has designed a system that, on paper, outperforms Microsoft’s next Xbox. One source familiar with both platforms tells us that in real terms Sony’s console is “slightly more powerful” and “very simple to work with”.
Ultimately, the performance differences between the two consoles will have as much bearing on multiplatform releases as the differences between PS3 and 360 – very little – but Sony will be expecting big-budget firstparty releases such as the PS4 Uncharted sequel to demonstrate its console’s superiority.

I hope the controller redesign is more than that, just sounds like the exact same controller with a touch pad in the middle. Hardly a redesign the same as adding a 'PS' button there for the PS3 wasn't.
gt6 ps4 confirmed.
How about this with a touchscreen?
