Last generation was the first time in a long time very Sony sold a console for a profit. Usually when you launch new consoles most companies take a small loss to gain market share and in return make more money from subscriptions and software
Sony is not comfortable at $499 they are not comfortable at 449 they are more than comfortable at $399. to vast majority of gamers and I'm not talking about hardcore gamers I'm talking about casuals p...
I am happy at the current specs because these will come at a price point of $399 The price point at which Sony feels comfortable releasing the console and they don't want to go over that
They will eat about $54 in cost at launch with the hopes of gaining market share which in return generates billions. Let's not be so naive here Sony tried at 599 and at 499 with PS3. it was more powerful than any other system but that developers were not willing to take advantage ...

Backwards compatibility is very important to people as we move forward. With digital being so big now people have spent thousands and they want they want to be able to play those games
Why do you think Ms have said all games will be compatible with all Xbox family consoles they won't be any exclusive for next gen for the initial few years. They don't want to splint the fanbase
That's why losing the fanbase goin...
Even with more powerful system Sony developers have shown over the years they are just more talented I am not saying the teams over at Xbox are not good but they are nowhere near on the same level when it comes to somebody like guerrilla games naughty dog etc
Believe it or not and I know on this side because we are hardcore gamers we don't like to believe this but the one thing that matters the most to everybody and I mean vast majority of people is the price If one sy...

By same you mean one will be $499 and the other $399? Sony don't want to cross the $399 price point
I know people want to jump to the fact that it's weaker than the Xbox series x but what they don't realize is it's very hard for a company to come in and take away 110 million people install base that PS4 currently has. Those people are more inclined to just stay in the same ecosystem with their friends and the games they already own so they care more about games and price and what their friends are playing on
I think price will be $399 and games wise we will h...

Maybe they want to optimize the other games via patches before making them playable on the PS5 Don't be so negative

Wait till June or July they will have a very big PlayStation event digitally. PS3 will be confirmed with improvements
Biggest news will be the price point of the console
It starts with a 3
Its 2 teams within the same studio even if in different cities. Like ND and GG both are one studio with 2 seperate teams. In my opinion that's the right way to grow naturally
Vocal minority at it again. If options don't exist in the market right now for what Sony and Ms are trying to do with their custom drive than what are they supposed to do? Just cap it at 1TB
Can't beat that
I guess time to play backlogs we all have such a huge backlog
Just go to GameStop Walmart Target Best buy or any other retailer and you can pick it up in this scenario Amazon is not the best solution
During these times is best to have options The options some gamers can't wait to give away as in hoping retailers like GameStop go out of business

Sorry I meant to say as console gaming becomes more like pc. Just look at next gen as both consoles are poised to be quite powerful
That's why console gaming will be the best moving forward. It's very well optimized
I think specs wide both will be very similar what Sony will do instead are games and I don't think y'all are ready
They are in the business of not buying studios but buying IP's. This is one thing they learned from FF7 remakr. Tomorrow they won't show many games but just specs maybe few tech demos and q surprise here or there

$399 trust me on that
It's not the best because it's not as comfortable in hands as 360 controller. This opinions are subjective at best
Me too I don't even have psn plus because I only play single player games. Now if sony were to make more killzone like kz2 or resistance 2 I would happily jump back in

For sure switch has some great single player games and pc always gets support but Xbox needs to improve big time in their offerings
Shaggy
$499
$399
Demon souls remake For sure among other exclusives
You think a 100 billion dollar company couldn't do 12.2TF if that was more important but they understand price and software is what will sell and they will have both at launch
Mark Cerny is a developer himself and is a legend in gaming so he knows what it takes and what other developers want
Just look at today people w...
