It's only a desperate move when Microsoft does it! 


yes, because the xbox one and PS4 are in the exact same position.

No, MS has the resources to be more competitive. :-p

Anyhow, its logical for Sony to respond to X1 price cuts and bundles. Their job is slow down any momentum X1 gets.

their job is to sell as much as they can. we are gonna see a lot more deals like this in the UK and the rest of the world regardless of what the xb1 does, thats how the holidays are. 



Still 527$ which the PS4 is NOT worth

I feel bad for ppl in the UK that they have to pay over 100$ more than the US

Which is exactly why I won't be buying one remotely any time soon, still no games that I'd want so if 2015 doesn't improve from their end of offerings to me in terms of games/price I'll be writing them off and wait 6 years until it's vastly cheaper and has a library of games I;d consider wanting, my choice has already been made for a Wii U, XB1 and PC upgrade.



Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see

So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"

In Canada we had a special a few weeks back, you had

The PS4 bundled with The Last of Us

+ Some other game

400$ (usually it's 450 here)

Ia assumed it was a precursor that the price was about to drop, I think they test the market response for sales boost with different price/bundle mixes to see the reaction...

Nothing desperate about it. They are leading in sales in the UK and the biggest game of the year is about to release in a few days.

Why is it not worth it? PS4 is not the only product more expensive in the UK compared to the US. Every product over there is more expensive..

There's no double standard here. Xbox One is losing the console war and has to do constant price cuts and promotions just to be competitive.

PS4 however has been winning the console war this whole year and hasn't had to resort to "desperate" moves. This is the first promotional price cut and its only for 3 days. It's called being competive. Weren't people complaining about Sony needing to react to Microsofts aggressive moves? Well this is it. Expect similar promotions in the US.

Taking into account VAT, it is actually $440 US. 

PS4 in US is $400 right?  Plus whatever sales tax.  Seems pretty even.

Look I just put it into google and it said 527$ ok?
