Overkill on the whole trying to kill the used game market thing to the extent that all gamers take a hit. But if Niny and MS do similar then I guess it won't make a difference.
As it stands, the rumours coming out about PS4 would tend me towards waiting even longer than usual after it launches to buy the system.
In any case, I won't be buying PS4 until the US price at least comes down to $299. I bought PS3 4 months too soon because my birthday preceeded the Slim by that amount of time. I won't be making the same mistake with PS4. $299 in the US IS my buying price point for PS4 no higher.
I imagine the lower the PS4's starting price the longer it will sit at the launch price. So I expect $299 to hit after about the same amount of elapsed time as it did with PS3.
