After this video was posted, Francis answered some questions related to his experience on twitter. According to him, there was no overheating of any sorts during the two hours of playtime that he experienced on PlayStation 4. He also shows a glimpse of the PlayStation 4 boot-up screen, which appears to be more like a PlayStation VITA boot-up with a black background and white PlayStation logo.

Francis also explains that he only got to keep the PlayStation 4 for 2 hours and thanks Sid Shuman for giving him this opportunity to experience PlayStation 4 before launch.
