| Kerotan said: Lets call a spade a spade here and not beat around the bush. MS have basically given Black Friday type deals from the beginning of November. Reading through gaf people are literally getting X1 bundles for as little as $250. Meanwhile SOny are offering (in the US) a Destiny bundle well past it's peak and a standalone bundle for launch price. Yes there are other old bundles but they're not selling. Consumers are now buying X1's in massive numbers and time will tell if these are people who were going to get it anyway but have jumped the gun since deals are so good now. Either way the fact is MS so far in nov are heavily outselling the PS4 and will likley do so for at least another week or two. What I can't get my head around is how Sony haven't announced anything new yet. Why not promote a LBP + Singstar bundle for $350? Or a Far Cry 4 and/or GTA 5 bundle? They have the deals for these games amd publish some of them yet they've been going all Johnny Tightlips on us. I know Sony can afford to lose Nov and even December but Jesus Christ they will make back a 50$ hit with PS Plus subscriptions and software sales. Case in point are the agressive Bundles that the EU have anounced. SCEA need to wake up or run the risk of losing all momentum. So Sony: How's your mother? Sony (so far), "Who says I have a mother". |
Given the current situation, Sony has excellent sales but need money and MS has poor sales but plenty of money. That's why.
