Sega did the same back then with the Dreamcast. I don't really see the point of doing so.

Its a completely different time these days..... COD/BF/AC didnt even exist in the Dreamcast days.

 

Now they bring millions of gamers into stores, all within a couple weeks of one another. And all of those gamers will be seeing PS4 products on shelves. Massive exposure for Sony, wheather they did it on purpose or not. 

Why is it different? Games early on shelves are games early on shelves it doesn't matter if it's COD or Sonic... hope it works for them
