Sony PlayStation 4 Launch at 1 Utama 201213


[Event]
Remember my post about the Sony PlayStation 4 launch – https://timchew.net/2013/11/20/sony-playstation-4-launch-announcement-malaysia/ ? Well since it’s launch announcement, gamers in Malaysia have been placing their orders and eagerly awaiting their console to arrive.
As of 1 December 2013, over 2.1 million consoles since have already been sold in Europe and America within a month after release and I got the opportunity to play with the new console at the Sony PlayStation 4 (PS4) roadshow at 1 Utama Shopping Centre on 20 December 2013. I remember when back in the day I was so addicted to games like Mario Bros and Super Kontra back in the 80’s and all the way up to the Sony PS2 which sadly was my last console as sadly I really don’t have not much time to play console games after I started working fulltime.
The Sony PS4 is a next generation computer entertainment system that provides gamers with rich and immersive gameplay with powerful graphics, speed, deeply integrated social capabilities and innovative second-screen features utilizing devices such as PlayStation®Vita (PS Vita). To further enhance your experience, you can utilize the PS Camera, and Sony has a value bundle set of the PS4 together with the PS Camera.
 

After patiently waiting for weeks, pre-ordered customers from selected SONY Stores in Malaysia came to pick up their PS4 at 1 Utama. Hiroyuki Oda, Deputy President of Sony Computer Entertainment Japan Asia, make a special trip from Japan to mark the momentous occasion in the world of console gaming.
PlayStation®4 (PS4™) (CUH-1006A B01) computer entertainment system is available in Malaysia from 20th December 2013 at a suggested retail price of RM1,799.00 (check the link to my post at the bottom of this page for more packages and info). Launched concurrently are 23 launch frame titles developed by SCE Worldwide Studios (SCE WWS) and numerous 3rd party software developers and publishers around the globe.
 
 The new PS4 box has a really sleek look while maintaining the traditional black colour
 The controller looks the same but it’s not! The buttons are easier to press especially L1, L2, R1 and R2 and there’s the addition of the touchpad! It’s also wireless and a headset can be connected to it. You’ll still need a wire to charge it of course.
 There are also accessories to enhance your gaming experience
          This was unbelivably cute…Lego Marvel Avengers!             This is a very cool game! Especially if you’re a DC Comics fan!                Us members of the media playing “THE PLAYROOM”, a preinstalled application, to enjoy Augmented Reality content.       

 Some customers even started lining up from the night before to claim their PlayStation 4
 The happy smiles on first few in Malaysia to claim their sets!
