| Aeolus451 said: It was reserved for later. Edited. Here's what i wanted to post earlier. The playstation brand has a history of providing the best consoles to play video games on all over the world. It has shown in previous gens that it has the most new IP's, rpg's, exclusives and the most diverse library of games compared to the competition. People are simply buying the newest console with the idea that it will be just like any other playstation console. The PS4 only needs to deliver on those expectations. |
Dunno why every other comment is being quoted but this one is being ignored. It is the reason PS4 is winning out the gate.
It's the same reason that the PS1 and 2 dominated, and is the reason the PS3, launched at $600 was able to "sell more than the 360 did at the same point in its life time" (popular mantra by MS right now, although PS3 sales were apparently "horrible" at launch, so comparing to 360 shouldn't be all that impressive) and take the #2 spot, even after launching a year later.
PS4 launched cheaper than the direct competition (MS) and had the same thing going for it that made its predecessors successful? And its total competition (MS and Ninty) completely screwed the pooch? Sony wins by default in this scenario.
