| Machiavellian said: What does it matter if Sony gets media spotlight now. Why would things not reset. The PS4 does not exist in a vacuum. There is competition and anyone who is thinking about purchasing a console is looking to see what both companies bring to the table not one. It's not like Sony reveal their console and they had it ready for purchase. Actually if Sony did that, it would have totally changed the landscape and MS would have to make some type of message to counter. Instead the PS4 will not see daylight until November. By that time there will be plenty of information, Commercials, reports you name it for any consumer to make a purchase decision. The only thing Sony gains by releasing info this eary is good will but they do lose in other areas. There is no ground lost because Sony has not released anything. By the time E3 comes aound, it will be 6 months before either console is released. Are you telling me by that time everyone will not have enough information to decide which console they want to purchase. 6 Months is a long time and Sony giving MS 3 months to counter seems even more. For Sony to show their hand with over 9 months for a respond from their competition is either brilliant or blunder. They allow their competition to make changes and tweeks to counter their stragety. They give their competition a chance to tighten their message to analize information from Sony reveal and better market their device. I am not looking at this situation like a gamer or consumer, I am looking at the situation like a business analyst developing my message with plenty of time to address weakness or strengths based on getting knowledge early. The race for Consumer money is not going to be decided in the short months between Sony and MS reveal. This will be a long battle just like it was last gen. |
