@evilmeister13 The form factor you would most likely use is mini ITX or "mITX". 

 

 

While mini ITX builds can have a fully powered system in them, it depends on the case and what you can physically fit into it.

 

The Antec ISK 310 is probably aesthetically closest to the Playstation/DVD player form factor, but the physical space means you won't be able to fit a video card and the 150PSU that is included will limit you too components. Something like the SilverStone Milo would be

 You can put gaming rigs in anything as small as Cooler Master 110 or Cubitek Mini Center even if the room is a bit tight. The Corsair Obsidian 250D is a very sexy, very full featured case that is at a higher price point and can stick a powerful system in it. The Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced (from experience) is excellent to build in, is dirt cheap and looks pretty good.

 

Just go to an online shop and look at "mITX cases" category and see what you can have in what case and what suits your needs best.

well i think you are talking about a HTPC form factor and for that i would go with the Fractal design Node 605, and you could put a good amount in there

Dude. That is an ATX case... Even the smallest mITX cases are still a lot bigger than a PS4.
