Agreed.

People want Xbox to go away for some reason but that's the only thing encouraging Sony to be competitive and why PS4 was $299 during the holiday. Frankly, the last thing you want is your favorite console to be less competitive and therefore we need competition.

I dissagree, Sony can and will compete more with PC in the future. The recent rumors and the VR price are an idicator, for example they could have sold the PSVR at 800$ and say hey we are the only console manufacture having VR so deal with it. But they didnt

 

anyways great deal with SO

Was Sony competing with PC or where they looking for a "mass market" price?

How much is PSVR (which I'm buying on day one) after you add in Move controllers and a PS Eye?  And, according to early reviewers, it's still a far inferior experience to the other options.  What I'm saying is they didn't charge $800 because they don't provide an $800 experience and, even then, they aren't cheap.

Imagine if, for example, Xbox One and NX offered a VR option. Do you think PSVR's price would make them think twice about how much they'd charge? Do you think Sony would lower their price to stay competitive? Would somebody even consider selling hardware at a loss?

 

Competition is good.
