If the PS4 is made for gamers/gaming and not as the single solution to all your entertainment needs, it can be cheaper IMO.

Xbox is turning into the mini van of the console market. Adequate at everything, not good at anything.

Ps3 was outrageously expensive. What makes you think this one will be have the price or cheaper?


The PS3 had a custom built chip (Cell), Blu Ray, as well as the PS2's chip ("Emotion" engine) for backwards compatibility.

The PS4 is essentially using off the shelf components, and the price in Blu Ray technology has plummeted. The Xbox One employs similar components, but I think it's the Kinect that's pushing the price to $500.

I expect the PS4 to be $50 - $100 cheaper.

Isn't the ps3 still going for $299 in stores?

I see no way ps4 is under $400.

No thoughts on the new gadgets on the PS4 controller actually pushing the price up though?

Your basic controller is $50ish, but adding a touch screen/pad will probably add a good $25-$50 to the cost as it is.

Assuming you are being sarcastic, we do know that.

The PS3 trys to be a single solution. Why would you think that Sony will take a giant step backwards ?

gardoki you didn't miss much.

A bunch of cgi cutscenes of games in development. There were some games that showed gameplay like Killer Instinct, Ryse (which looked like a bunch of mini cutscenes and quicktime events), some indie game called below, BF4 where they have already have a DLC map pack(which was running on PC btw+frick EA), a cool game called titanfall which is available on PC, witcher 3 which will be on PC, halo teaser, twitch TV streaming, dead rising 3(meh), forza 5, microsoft derping around by not playing sound with a couple spots(facepalm).

reddit is pretty much gold right now.

This isn't surprising. I could have told you reddit would of made a bunch of dumbass fan boy pictures about this even if Xbox came with a million dollars inside.

I mean microsoft tried. If you can't laugh at the stuff on reddit right now you might be the fanboy. I do not have a dog in this fight.
