Does anyone think during E3 sony is going to announce a bundle for ps4 with a free game at $399?

I think they are going to announce either a price-drop or a free game bundled with every console, a price-drop being the more likely of the two considering people receive free games already as part of PlayStation Plus. Kaz recently said that they are going to aggressively seek to expand the install-base of the PlayStation 4, even at the expense of profitability. Sony are playing the long game here, and I think a price-drop just makes sense at this point as a larger install base will mean greater profit in the future, a higher chance of third-party exclusive titles, amongst many other things. It will also render the recent unbundling of Kinect - and the resulting price-drop of the Xbox itself - nigh on irrelevant.

The more they create a gap between them and MS, the more benefit to Sony.

If we just look at the PS+ figures, they are going to generate lots of revenue in the future on this, and they are stealing many x-gold members (ohh austin powers)... So yes its not a problem to lose a small amount of money now because they will make it up in subs over 3-4 years.
