You know, I was so busy covering the PlayStation Meeting, I never even saw the official advertisement.

But a great many others did. YouTube has released their February 2013 Leaderboard; i.e., the most-viewed ads of the month. And the PlayStation 4 commercial you see here is right at the top at #1.

It even released on February 20 and still managed to claim the top spot with 26.3 million views, in the process beating out a bunch of Super Bowl ads. In fact, the PS4 ad garnered 5 million more hits than the second-place finisher, Samsung Mobile's "The Next Big Thing" (for its Galaxy line of phones and tablets). Not even Pepsi, Jeep, Chevy, Oreo or Ram was able to beat out the PS4…but then again, considering that the vast majority of those interested in the PS4 might be more likely to visit YouTube, this isn't exactly surprising.

Check it out if you haven't already.
