Nope, because MS would have said "Looks! Same price but you get Kinect!" and that would hurt PS4 sales.

No, Sony would have argued you're getting a more powerful machine over Kinect.

Sony fans are core gamers and would argue they prefer power over the Kinect.


Power is a hard sell to gamers...perhaps the core gamers will be aware but the rest wont. Kinect on the other hand is something tangible and immediately seen as added value.

Like BenV mentioned in his thread...most people pre-ordering dont give a shit about half the stuff discussed on forums like power/resolution/graphics etc.

And while these factors are certainly not pointless (casuals talk about these things too) but its doesnt justify a much higher price whereas Kinect does. To the average consumer that is.
