I think we are seeing the arrogance effect here... Sony was very arrogant after the ps1-2, then thought they could sell a ps3 for whatever they want, and it started out awful... Now Microsoft was the arrogant one, and thought they could throw together the kinect and sell it for whatever they want.... Did they not see the ps3 launch? It had a $500 model too that sold like crap, so what made them think a $500 x1 would change that? I think gene really no one really wants kinect(I don't, hated it on 360), and they thought it would justify $500 because of kinect... The need to make that thing optional, and sell it with and without it. $400 without kinect would be fair, even if the ps4 is that price....


Yes that is exactly what I think. PS1 knows there were competing with N64 so Sony brought their A game. The same with the PS2. Sony though all was won because even the PS2 was selling almost or better than Xbox 360 in some weeks (not sure about that last statement). So they got arrogant thinking the war was over and bomber people with a $600.

Now MS when from 25 millions to 80 millions boxes so they though they had it all going for them. And got over confident and arrogant. Sony learned there lessons and came out with $400 powerful box.
