It's over, Microsoft has won.

Is this real? I might get an Xbox then.
Same price as a WiiU, though.
>>331442113
still 150$ too expensive.

>>331442113
so they are going to sell more than 17 million consoles in the next month and after that no one will ever buy a PS4 or anything else again?
>>331442113
but it's not worth more than $20
>>331443069
donĀ“t, PS4 gets a newer version, Microsoft might follow suit.
>>331442113
I bought a GameCube for $100 back in the early 2000s.
Make it that cheap again.
>>331442113
This is a smart move. If both systems play close to enough of the same games, people will naturally gravitate to the cheaper one.
Casuals don't give a FUCK about Bloodborne, maybe Uncharted 4 but it's a tough sell to those that only play stuff like FIFA or Madden or yearly generic titles from Ubisoft or EA.
A sale is a sale, Microsoft and Sony don't give many fucks if their games sell more or less, just as long as they sell consoles.

What? This is completely false and you have no idea what you are talking about.
The piece of hardware you are buying should be more expensive than what you are paying for. They make that missing money by selling you online functions and selling games.
>>331445010
60 fps though right?
>>331442113
$250 nigga, and not a dime more
>>331444378
Ehh, I'm not the fence about this. A new rendition on Xbone wouldn't necessarily mean it would sell more. Ideally, if it does the samething as the original Xbone with no new benefits, those that haven't jumped in yet, plus Sony is reportedly doing that right now so M$ would be playing Ketchup. I'd be a better marketing strategy to just cut Xbone's price down by $75, then spending more money on a new model that STILL wouldn't sell well.

Seems to me, you are putting the cart before the horse, mother fucker.
>Sell more games, when system isn't selling
>Sell more online passes, when system isn't selling
Need to sell more consoles, to sell more games, to sell more online passes. You speak from theory, but math doesn't lie. Multiplatform titles sell more on PS4, than Xbone. Sony has more people online, than Xbone. It isn't cause their online store looks nicer anon.
I wouldn't buy it if it was $50, halo was all they had and they shit all over it.
I bought a PS4 exclusively for Bloodborne and don't regret it.
GOOD exclusives do sell consoles micucksoft. Waiting till 2017 to get the only promising stuff you are offering like Scalebound out just gives that much more time for people to get the competition first.
>>331445732
I'd buy one for $50 if it was bundled with the MCC and Halo 5.

Are you dumb? You proved my theory.
>make console more expensive than necessary
>not many people buy it
>can't sell many online functions or games
>make console cheaper than the ideal
>many people buy it
>sell much online functions and games
Are you dumb?
And why did you bring up the shitty console war here? I'm PC master race, I couldn't care more about how you can't sleep easily at night because the other console is better than yours. But what I am saying is that both Sony and Microsoft sell cheap pieces of hardware to make it up by selling software and online.
So, any Xbone exclusives worth getting? Anything worthwhile gonna be released in the near future?
Haven't really heard much other than Halo and Scalebound.
>>331445221
in case of Quantum Break no
>>331445305
m8 the exact scenario happened with ps3 going to ps4
If sony some how shits the bed and m$ Doesnt then it will be xbone 2.0
People don't create their own individual opinions or choices when it comes to consoles
People just lean to the more popular console

Not necessarily, Nintendo and MS tried this with the GC and Xbox and everyone still bought PS2s instead. The GC dropped to $99 and it still didn't help. Aggressive price cuts won't always help and can actually hurt.
>>331446523
This is what MS has been trying to do with the Xbox brand from the start, sell the console at a loss and make it up with software, subscription fees and later DLC. But it didn't work and MS lost billions, Sony did the same shit with the PS3 and lost lots of money too.
