Sounds almost as is Asia was a continent... Hmm...Asia consists on many countries, and there are huge differences between them,
let's compare Russia, India and Japan, it's totally different.
Aside there is no "asian language", as the OP said.

<---- Foxi4Is the number 4 really as feared as Godzilla in Japan or are we just all assuming things because of some fun fact we read online somewhere.

Like I wanna know seriously because it's not like popular Japanese games avoid the number 4 altogether. Resident Evil 4, Street Fighter IV, Monster Hunter 4, Persona 4, Final Fantasy IV.
EDIT: Metal Gear Solid 4, Dragon Warrior IV.
The number 4 over there is similar to 13 over here. Some people care, some don't.
Oh well...This just in! PS4 set to fail as they had no females on stage at their presentation! The world over is waiting to see if Microsoft can pull off an all female line up and win the next generation war!
I seen that just after I posted the breaking news myself. Thanks for the source backup and verification.
No Asian vertically challenged lesbian Jewish native american transexuals? Surely there setting themselves up for an epic disaster of their new console.What MS really needs is a bunch of vertically challenged lesbian jewish native americans. They couldn't possibly lose then.
They didn't avoid 4 anyway.Asia consists on many countries, and there are huge differences between them,

The main reason of Sony avoiding number 4 was japan only,
probably they don't give a fuck about chinese and indonesian.
I'm not going do a whole explanation of why this whole thing is just wrong because even tho you spiting out this doom and gloom nonsense mentality, you should at least already partially know why. How can you judge the console when ,one ,nothing seriously has been built from the groud up for it and ,two, when hater comments that sounds similar to yours is always wrong?I watched the Killzone and watchdog videos. I'm impressed and want one.
Not wishing to start a flame war this is personal opinion only but, Nintendo have really disappointed me with their latest offering. Once again they are going to be 6 years behind with a console that is once again mainly targeted at young kids. I guess they know their market but, I was really hoping they were making a proper gaming console this time. In a few years time when all the gaming engines are updated there is now way in hell the Nintendo console will be able to run the A1 titles. It can barely run the current engines.
They didn't avoid 4 anyway.
It's really obvious Sony doesn't give a fuck to other culture taboos. What I'm trying to say in the end is that the number 4, internationally, is just viewed as a number. They are not going to bother renaming it just for the sake of one continent.
I'm trying to say that 4 isn't a big deal. The person who started this said that he/she was surprised that Sony named it PS4 even though 4 is a Japanese taboo. I simply added on to what he said (yes it was off topic), but I did say on an international scale, this taboo is simply bull or insignificant. I never emphasized about anything "PSHiroshima or PSNagasaki".The number four is not as big of a deal as you're making it out to me. It's not named "Playstation Hiroshima".
And to think one of the key features of the presentation was the controller which now has a touchpad. ;o;...I love it when people completely lose the touch with what's important on a presentation and instead focus on one completely coincidental detail.
