@EdHieron: 1&2 then why they are playing games on consoles and not on PC, which has the graphics horsepower in completely different spheres?

3 You don't think they will be selling the console at a huge loss, like they did the PS2 and PS3?


Because consoles are more consumer friendly ( ie. you can sit in a comfotable chair with your feet up while playing them) and they cost much less than gaming pcs (ie. less than $500.00 Versus $2,000.00 for a decent system that requires upgrades every two years to keep up).

 

The thought is that they will be selling the consoles at a huge loss.  They could build a console for $500.00 using the best tech that money would buy and release it at that cost without having a huge loss on each console sold.
