No, devious would be to release the console a month before ps4 and release halo the week of ps4.

Releasing the console right after e3 would be a big mistake.....especially if the stuff sony shows on ps4 looks significantly better than the stuff ms shows for xbox.

That would be a risky move. Even apple gives consumers some warning. How would they prepare for distribution and advertisement? Maybe if they announce really soon they can pull it off. It would provide them some leverage to tackle the holiday season without it being a launch.



Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(

Lol at the sonyfans. Lauching right after the sony event would be a great move. Everybody would be wow the new playstation. Than msft: Hey guys this is our console ( presentation) it releases next month. Bam everybody talks about the xbox AND can get it. Bye ps4 hype

Yeah that worked so well for Sega.

I like the idea!. The one problem is that they would have to give gamers some warning and build some steam from now for a June/E3 launch. Couple that with a strong software (Halo and a few 3rd parties) release window between June and December, and it could make for an unusual but successful launch.

I love My Wii U, and the potential it brings to gaming.

MS launching June, Sony launching November.
Sony wins!



No. Build hype before announcement. Then after announcement leave E3 as the next window for further hype. It's very important to use E3 as a higher window, but then releasing it around the period can be detrimental.



I think this is false.



I think the Sun has a typo. BAM THREAD OVER!
