401 EUR give 446$ so we will most likely get a price cut for the original PS4 to 350$ maybe.

core_54016d ago (Edited 4016d ago )

I think they just replace the model with same price but more value ...

DarkOcelet4016d ago

I doubt they will put the 500GB and 1000GB models for the same price. It doesnt make sense at all.

Yi-Long4016d ago

TBH, I feel 1TB is still not enough in this generation.

2 weeks orso ago I already had to start deleting content/games from my 500GB HDD to make room for The Witcher 3.

I know I should just buy a 2TB HDD and install that, but currently my PS4 also suffers occasionally from the disc-eject error, so it would suck if I upgrade my current PS4 only to find it breaking down more in the coming months.

Might rather buy a completely new PS4, but obviously preferably with a 2TB HDD installed already.

freshslicepizza4016d ago

they might come out with a 1b model for the same price and discontinue the old one along with other refinements.

i expect bundles this year not a price drop.

JMaine5184016d ago

Yea that sounds about right.

solid_snake36564016d ago

Id just buy a ps4 with the smallest hdd, and put my own sshd in their.

caseh4016d ago

Expensive would be an understatement considering the capacity you ideally want. A hybrid is the smartest option with the PS4.

lelo2play4016d ago

@caseh

Don't mistake sshd with ssd. sshd is a hybrid.

Eonjay4016d ago

What an odd amount... anyway I wasn't sure whether to expect the new model at E3. With this development, its certain.

I don't know why but I feel like sony will announce a 1TB ps4 for $349. Yes ps4 doesn't need a price drop but I think sony will do that

Or we could see a summer bundle 1TB ps4 with 2 games download from psn for $399 (any of these 2 in the bundle. The last of us, drive club, the order 1886, knack, kill zone)

I think price drop will only happen if ms doesn't something drastic during thru e3. Sony goes last for conference so I am sure they will have a plan A and plan B.

Oh and btw amazon is awesome for leaking a lot of stuff lol

MasterCornholio4016d ago

I have a feeling that the price drop will be used to phase the 500GB model out.

The 1TB one should be the standard model from now on.

uth114016d ago

according to FCC filings, they'll be producing a slightly modified 500gb model as well as a 1tb model. So I don't think the 500gb will disappear just yet. It will become the value edition

ScorpiusX4016d ago (Edited 4016d ago )

@Showtime wouldn't adding more memory cost , if so how does selling it at 349.00 make sense . (Just curious )
As for the MS doing something I hope anything involving price happens after the event , no need to give anyone one a chance to upper hand them again.

Like the effort both companies are making , but am still liking the External hard drive concept . I rather prefer to have more memory than have to play the deleting game
.

MasterCornholio4016d ago

The deleting game isn't that big of a deal when the install times are short.

At least that's what I discovered from my experience.

I remember the PS3 had horrible install times so I plan out my deletes very carefully. With my PS4 that doesn't happen because i can always reinstall the game in a minute or two.

OB1Biker4016d ago

Exactly. I don't get why people would need to keep so many games on their HD if they have the retail copy

MasterCornholio4016d ago

Sell the 500GB model for 350$ and the 1TB model for 399$.

That's what I'm expecting.

SmielmaN4016d ago

This seams logical. I suppose they could sell the 1TB at $450 though and announce a 500gb Slim at $400? Save the price drop for the holidays?

ZaWarudo4016d ago

Either Sony will phase out the 500GB, or keep the 500GB option at $349.
1TB at $399 would be wonderful.

LexHazard794016d ago

I was thinking same thing. Great move!

NO, that can't be... No! I can't... Really?/s

Cacabunga38d ago

They for sure chose the worst way to deal with it

-Foxtrot37d ago

Funny considering Bruce left half way through development and now we get told there was an internal conflict with the story direction.

Makes you think…

HectixRose38d ago

I think it was good decision, if he was still alive, he would have been a mascot just like Kratos, drake and many others. These old dudes gotta die for new characters to take center stage with their own storyline. They keep dragging the emotional baggage into many sequels and eventually the story just turns into absolute shit show.

JEECE38d ago

It was ironic because people complained heavily about the story in the Uncharted games not having sufficient stakes because all the key characters always survived, despite the dangerous situations they were always in. Then ND killed a character in a more serious series and everyone lost their minds. Just shows that people don't always really want the thing they say they want.

CantThinkOfAUsername37d ago

I thought the more common complaint about Uncharted franchise was how the main cast are the good guys acting so nonchalantly while killing hundreds in cold blood (aka the dissonance between gameplay and story cutscenes). They just did it again in Part II.

Soy38d ago

Didn't have to kill him. Just have them part ways or Joel can "retire," whatever.

DarXyde37d ago

I don't think he would necessarily need to become a mascot (and besides, technically, I'd say Ellie is... So regardless, someone was going to be).

From a narrative perspective, I do think it has a similar effect to Ricky dying in Boyz N Da Hood: very likeable character, and you're really motivated to see the get back—in this case, it's more intense because it's an interactive experience. Most people hated Abby, but I get what they were after with portraying the cycle of violence and revenge—unfortunately, the game appears to want to take the side of the bad people.

But I will say that if Joel survived, it does become harder to tell an interesting story. What COULD have happened is an exploration into the rift between Joel and Ellie after the trolley dilemma events of the first game. It could have been interesting to see Abby out for revenge at the same time Ellie hated Joel.

Ashunderfire8637d ago

Sorry just had to say this lol! RICKYYYY!

Man Cuba Gooding Jr was miscast in that movie, but that part was cringey it was sad and funny at the same time man.

Ashunderfire8637d ago (Edited 37d ago )

I understand but the way they went about killing Joel, was poorly executed. Even the show of the Last of Us games tried to improved it, but it was just as bad. Well at least Joel got to know the reason why he had to die, before the death happened in the show. That part gave us the full context, but the game just let it happen with no pay off.

Joel death should have been a midway thing through the story, so we at least get to play him a little more with Ellie. Abby didn’t need to be this Hulk looking woman, but more like the show Abby which is a beater idea in my opinion.

The only ND game that was so disappointing to me I couldn't finish it.

pwnmaster300038d ago

Honestly as much as I loved the game, they could have just not killed him off.
I get it creator vision and all but killing a character that made you millions is just wrong imo. At least have him go down fighting.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle38d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7737d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
