Let's enjoy the game experience. PS4 will dominate this gen, live with that X fans. Accept it, it will be easier and less painful. It's silly to look at the micro scenario, 1 week after a price cut, etc... any company going with a price cut and those deals so early is in serious troubles.

Really is that what happened with the PS3? PS3 cut price in July of there launch year. So is XBOX ONE going to be doomed if they do the same and cut price as early as July? Seems many of you don't understand that this is the very beginning of the gen and anything can happen. Took ps3 a long time to catch up but they did.

Numbers from that month. Look XBox One Should pass PS3 numbers by April in aligned launch year.. So to say anyone cutting price and doing deals this early, is also saying PS3 would have never came back and was doomed. Sorry but this argument is getting really old.

Even at $600 and with hardly any games, against a 360 that had already build up a very respectable game library, the difference in weekly sales between the PS3 and 360 was never even close to as drastic as that of the X1 and PS4 is.

Here is March 3rd of 2007. PS3 4 month on sale. Look at the difference. XBox One is 2.5 million ahead in sales compared.^^^^ Above is of July 2007. 8 months of the ps3 on sale ^^^^^

Point being, don't be so sure. So what if it has a early lead, many things start and end in way different scenario's. 360 also had a 7 million unit lead.
