Sony Playstation E3 2013 Events

[Strange]

399 USD. Sony won the conference hands down.

 

[BRiT]

That's going to cost Sony a fair bit of money with their pricing theme.

I'm not a Sony fan, never owned a PS. But even I think that was the headshot.

 

[bRoNx]

Logged in just to say I got goose bumps at the price announcement!!! GO SONY!!! No need to hate any other console, just so glad I heard everything I needed to hear from my console of choice!!!

399 fatality

 

[patsu]

No mention of PSEye.

It's implicit in that $399 price. Tretton: "Read my lips. No PSEye bundle".

 

[Tap In]

otoh, PS4 is positioning itself as old school games machine.... Xbox one as a different living room only type device

 

[Silent_Buddha]

Hehe, it's funny that many of the same people that like Gaikai don't like having to be logged in once every 24 hours?

Uh, hello?

Naughty Dog PS4?

Driveclub gameplay?

 

[temesgen]

Again, notice Sony only supports sales of disc based games. Digital downloads will take off this gen, and those games will be locked just as they are on the Xbox.

You've been extremely vocal that PS4 will have paid MP and DRM isn't a big deal so what is your point? Are you saying they are equal or that XB1 has an advantage due to timed exclusives? Not trying to argue just want to understand.

 

[Rangers]

They have won..... no question in my mind.

Better hardware at a lower price... crazy.

Are we even so sure it's better hardware at this point? After both conferences I dont see a graphical edge in the actual gameplay shown...

But it should be at least equal yeah.

Damn they knifed MS well. No DRM+399, people are going to completely ignore the online paywall.

Can MS even afford to stay at 499 now? Ouch.

Naughty Dog PS4?

Driveclub gameplay?

Driveclub is playable at show floor, theres are still PAX and gamescon coming up.

 

[AzBat]

I didn't really expect it more than $399 if PSEye wasn't included. I'm actually kinda glad it's cheaper. Time to put pressure on Xbox 360 & Xbox One pricing. MS is going to have a hard time convincing a lot people they have a better product at $499. Let the system wars begin!

Well paced press conference. Started very slow, but ended in a bang. A bit disappointed that there was no ND or TLG.

 

[Bagel seed]

Hmm, $499 for 1.2(?)TF and DRM box or $399 for 1.8TF and no DRM? Answer seems pretty clear.

 

[Laa-Yosh]

Remember, PS3 started as more costly than X360 and still it was able to catch up.

Looks like Sony's gonna take the EU territories again, based on price; but MS is going to keep a tight grip on the US market because of the additional features and content (as right now they have the upper hand there).

I expect a similar balance in this generation as it was in the previous one, but with Nintendo falling out completely. Sony and MS will divide up Wii's market share, 90-90 million units or so.

Naughty Dog PS4?

Driveclub gameplay?

Heh heh, they will probably reserve for Gamescom, together with Media Molecule and Home Nextgen perhaps.

 

[MrFox]

He used the word "ownership" in his final speech.

I couldn't be happier.

(except that we didn't see the f*cking last guardian, of course, damn, was it canceled?)

 

[pc999]

AMAZING, JUST AMAZING.

No PS4Eye

 

[Johnny Awesome]

Yeah. No PSEye included for $399 so it's not going to get much support, like Kinect will.
