It's not a derailment. You have a particular posting style that refuses to accept you are wrong. It makes it hard to continue the discussion. So its very relevant when you reply to my post.

I will repeat what i said earlier because now you are once again mixing up arguments (you did this in the previous thread as well which makes it relevant here).

Selnor said PS4 should be priced with the One. That is $500. Without any additional value that would price sony out of competition as the Xbox One would have Kinect that is tremendous perceived value over the standalone PS4. It would have been the biggest talking point right now if that was the case. Because there would be no justification for the price to the average consumer. Pre-order  numbers would be the opposite of what it is now. That is why i said what Selnor proposed "price it with the one" made no sense.

It Sony was to include the Eye then that changes things because we have no idea what the Eye costs. Selling it at $400, $450, $500 is meaningless because we know nothing about the Eye and its costs. So its pointless to even talk about the eye.

The reason why we can talk about Kinect with estimates is because MS has already stated that they will break even or have a slight profit margin at launch.

Btw...what i say usually goes. I dont post that often and when i do I make sure of what i type and I make sure its backed up, factual and logical. Now we can do this again as it went in the other thread, its up to you. But lets face you know you lost that one


It is derailment and off-topic.  Unless you see the name JayWood2010, Jay520, and Shinobi-san in the OP somewhere?  Now the petty back and forth remarks really should stop.

How am I wrong again?  Selnor said they should have priced the PS4 with the ONe making it profitable.  Ps4 is $450 with the camera right now being sold for a loss.  $50 increase makes it $500 and likely profitable or $450 without the camera. What is wrong with any of this?

And more importantly what is factual about anythig you have said?  The only thing factual about your last post  for example is that XBO is $500.  Other than that you are just stating an opinion on what you "believe" is correct.

Im not accepting im wrong in this case because what I said isnt wrong.  PS4 IS BEING SOLD AT A LOSS.  That is a fact.  and"IF" they increased the price by $50 it would be the "exact" same price as XBO and likely profitably with the camera.  That is all 100% true unless the PS4 is taking a bigger loss then we are lead to believe.

If you are going to reply, tell me and everybody else how the bolded italics is false.  Because if it is true then you need to accept that and move on.  If it is false then show everybody how it is false instead of going off-topic then posting opinions and stating them as facts.
