Sonys PS4 is subsidized, Microsofts XOne too.
WHY try to build a gaming rig at the SAME price? Look at what a same powered PC will cost.
Hint: its only 100-150 bucks more...
BTW: you don't get Nvidia-GSync nor AMDs FreeSync within the PS4 nor XOne. THATS a HUGE drawback as leveraging this will essentially free the PCs GPU to render 1/3 more effects per frame...
And: NEXT YEAR will give as the TRUE NEXT-GEN GPUs !!! Sorry PS4 and XOne. You're OLD, OUTDATED and OBSOLETE.
People are blinded by the Anti-Nintendo-FUD telling them the new TRUE NEXT-GEN-AMD-DESIGN will be used by Nintendo.
FACEBOOK will use it. And they need it as there is no mass-market priced PC capable to drive OCULUS !!
Yep: Expect Facebook to announce this either E3 15 or 16.
Don't be surprised if it will come with Windows "XBox-Edition"...
