Comic-Con gets first public hands on with PlayStation 4

If you're heading to San Diego Comic-Con this weekend, clear out a few hours for the PlayStation booth. You (and probably an obscenely long line of other people) can finally get your hands on PS4. Sony today announced its next-gen console and three of its games will be available for public play for the first time ever in the San Diego Convention Center.

Playable demos of Driveclub, Knack, and Octodad: Dadliest Catch will be on hand to show the system's chops from racing to adventuring to secret cephalopod shenanigans. Of course, a bunch of current-gen games will be available too, like Beyond: Two Souls and Gran Turismo 6 for PS3, and Killzone: Mercenary and Tearaway for Vita.

Make sure you sign up for one of the daily PlayStation Vita giveaway contests before you get in line.
