Sony’s PS4: ‘Greatness Awaits’

Greatness awaits.

That's apparently the slogan Sony is going with to market the upcoming PlayStation 4, if a report by Siliconera is to be believed. The site allegedly obtained a commercial script for the PS4 that was leaked from the company working on the campaign. The overall setup seems to be a lone man walking down an empty road towards the camera. The man is joined by others and as they continue to walk, the words below are spoken:

“Who are you not to be great? You, with the imagination of a brilliant child and the powers of an ancient god.

“Who are you to be ordinary? You, who could get away with murder, or raise the dead…

“Who are you to be anonymous? You, whose name should be spoken in reverent tones or in terrified whispers.

“Who are you to be afraid? You, who can serve as judge and jury while hoarding infinite lives.

“Who are you to be a slave to the past? You who can travel time like the oceans and rewrite history with a single word.

“Who are you to deny greatness? If you would deny it to yourself, you deny it to the entire world.”

At the end, the words "Greatness awaits. PlayStation." will supposedly appear.

Interestingly, the script also makes note — towards the end of the trailer — of a flag bearing the Destiny symbol being unfurled from a window; perhaps the two will be marketed side-by-side? Given the exclusive content agreement between Sony and Bungie for PlayStation and Destiny, I wouldn't be shocked to see the two marketed together.
