We know a lot of console gamers that are still torn between Xbox One and the Sony Playstation 4, which is why Eddie Zarrick though it would be a great idea to strap the two together and cram it inside a laptop-inspired form factor, complete with a 22-inch display, which he called the PlayBox.
As its name implies, Eddie’s PlayBox has a full-fledged PlayStation 4 and Xbox One inside, albeit one platform can only be activated/powered on at once. Each of these consoles have their own respective slot for supported game titles, as well as a receiver that supports their respective wireless controllers.
To top it all off, Eddie also equipped his makeshift rig with a 22-inch display with full-HD resolution, so you can pretty use wherever you please provided that a power outlet is nearby.
Sadly, the PlayBox is only a commissioned console and will not be available for consumer release. However, if you like what you saw, you can head over to the source link below and ask Eddie if he can make you one too.

Ok, we know that you’re probably as disappointed as we were when Sony “announced” the PlayStation 4 back in February without actually seeing what the console looks like. But apparently, it was all part of the ploy in preparation for the biggest stage in gaming, E3, where they finally unveiled the PS4.
In our opinion, the unit looks like it came straight out of Transformer flick with its Piano Black body draped in matte finish and sharp edges that look like it can cut you in to pieces if you’re not careful enough. The juicy bits like USB 3.0 ports, disc drive, etc. are sandwiched between two angled slabs that are slightly askew.
The other components (HDMI out, RJ-45, AUX and Power ports) are placed on the on the back side surrounded by what seems like a bunch of vents.
There’s a purple lining that runs across the top of the PS4 which is probably meant to add a bit of twist to the otherwise cut-throat looking console. The PlayStation 4 can still be mounted vertically through the help of a detachable base.

The Sony PlayStation 4 will be available in time for the holiday season and will set you back USD399 apiece.
Sony has just announced the 4th iteration of their gaming console, the PlayStation 4. Though there were a lot of details missing, Sony has provided enough details for us to be excited.
Firstly and depressingly, we didn’t see any console. Yup, the actual PlayStation 4 wasn’t seen at the event; rather, the controllers, the games and the details were.
DUALSHOCK 4 got announced with a few design changes. Sony says it got more ergonomic through slightly curving some elements and improving some materials. Another thing to note is the absence of the start/select button – since they are both combined into the options button on the top right.
On the top left, you’ll find the share button, which will allow you to do many social actions. You may take screenshots with this feature and stream your content online through sites like Ustream. There’s also a touchpad for new game inputs and LED on top that will display different colors to identify players.
Through the light bar, the PlayStation 4 Eye, new 1280 x 800 dual-cameras, will be able to sense the depth and calculate the 3D location of the controllers. It has 4 microphones to take accurate sound, and Sony promises improved precision with PlayStation Move.
Some of the games announced for the PlayStation 4 are:
inFAMOUS: Second Son
Destiny
Watch_dogs
KillZone: Shadow Fall
Driveclub
The Witness
The PlayStation 4 even tried to recreate a human being though graphics. Maybe somewhere in the near future we could have some feature that will make a copy of our human bodies in the virtual world and command ourselves to fight zombies and to walk through the streets of Los Santos, San Andreas.
Also, 2nd screen features will be available with the PS Vita so that it can work with the PlayStation 4, and a PlayStation app will soon be available for both iOS and Android.

So we guess Sony beat Microsoft to the announcement of their next-gen consoles. The question is, who will release it first? Sony has already stated that it will be available by the holidays.
