This console has the ability to play any game--past, present, or future--at max settings, with stable network fidelity (though this also depends on your actual network), mod support, and access to all of the online game marketplaces. Along with traditional controllers, it even comes with a GamePad-like addon for DS, 3DS, and Wii U games, a motion tracker for Kinect games, and a Wiimote-like peripheral for Wii and PS Move titles.

However, there is a one-in-a-billion chance that, the instant you power it on, it will explode with the force of the Tsar Bomba. If you decide to leave it on perpetually, then the odds will be rerolled once every 24 hours starting from when it was powered on.

Deal or no deal?

No. Imagine the electricity bill your next of kin would get slapped with drawing that much power.

Kind of curious to calculate the bill. How much wattage does a tzar bombs generate...

95% of the time now I don't turn off my PS4, i just let it go to sleep mode. does awakening a console from sleep mode count as powering it on? or is it only turning it on from 'off'.

That's a one in ten billion chance. I'm fine with those odds. I'd use it.

Your likelihood of getting struck by lightning in a single year is 14,000 times more than the chance this thing blows up each time you turn it on.

I'll take it.

I either die instantly or live a while to play some of the best games ever (without necessarily finishing them)...then die. Either way, problem solved.

Something tells me that the odds of a real game console exploding is higher than that.

The question you're looking for is how much energy it releases. That's what you would ultimately be charged for. The power (wattage) would vary with time, I'm guessing.

I'd have said yes if it was just me getting affected and it didn't nuke everything around me.
