How much is the PS4 in the US? Does this make the X1 the same price or cheaper than the PS4? |
Identical price, which is going to make it a tough sell with news like this being the norm : http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2014-05-13-confirmed-watch-dogs-ps4-900p-xbox-one-792p-both-30fps
XB1 was $449 for March effectively, with MASSIVE marketing, Titanfall (a brand new AAA $60 title) AND Kinect, and it still lost NPD by a substantial margin. $399 for the bare console is just going to look weak by contrast.
"Oh look, $399 for both, but one is better, which one?" "Checks reviews" "Ah, PS4 it is then"
$349 will happen by November 15th. Bank on it. If they're serious, a game will come with that.

Yeah that may have a small impact, I can see it mainly going off which has the better exclusives. X1 with Halo and Gears will be a hard beat...

That could very well be, and I'd bet on $349 by the time they release as well.
Halo 2 probably won't move the needle much, but a real Gears game and Halo 5 might do the trick. Will have to wait and see.
