<p>There&#8217;s a new ad for the PS4 making the rounds today that isn&#8217;t what you&#8217;d expect a PS4 ad to look like. For starters, it&#8217;s about a cab company. Secondly, it&#8217;s about a cab company called Hadouken Cabs.</p>
<p><iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/lIxFeq_OvkE" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p><a href="http://www.vg247.com/2013/11/08/ps4-gets-bizarre-hadouken-cabs-viral-teaser-watch-it-here/">VG247 received the trailer</a> in an email, which they described to be &#8216;bizarre&#8217; and, yeah, that fits this video pretty well. It&#8217;s got a few PlayStation and <em>Street Fighter</em> references, aside from the obvious Ryu character and being called &#8216;Hadouken&#8217; Cabs. The license plate on the cab reads, &#8216;PS1994&#8217; or, you know, the year the original PlayStation released. The phone number for the company is 0830 1987-KO, but if you just take the numbers, you get 08-30-1987, also known as the <a href="http://streetfighter.wikia.com/wiki/Street_Fighter">release date of the first <em>Street Fighter</em> in arcades</a>.</p>
<p>&#8216;But what makes this a PS4 ad?&#8217;, you may be asking. Nothing more than the flash of a DualShock 4, the four PlayStation buttons and the hastag #4theplayers near the end. <em>Street Fighter</em> and PlayStation 4? What&#8217;s going on here.</p>
<p>Either we&#8217;re in for a PS4/<em>Street Fighter</em> announcement or someone is messing with us. Either way, I just want to know what this is about.</p>
<p>Oh, and Hadouken Cabs <a href="http://www.hadoukencabs.com/">has a website</a>, where you can speak to an operator. Wha?</p>
