...however if you are serious. Simply put. They can't. Sony doesn't have the pull with retailers, third parties, or consumers to get away with launching a $600 console again. If it weren't for RROD, they probably wouldn't have been able to recover from such a poor decision. Sony had the biggest most influential brand name in gaming and they still couldn't sell a $600 console.
Given how they've faltered with the PS3 and PSP, Sony needs to get off to a fast start next gen if they hope to regain what they've lost. A $600 PS4 would be going head to head with $250-$300 Wii2 and $300-$400 Xbox 720. Without the momentum of the PS1 and PS2's success they'd be toast.
