I'm talking Don Mattrick "#DealWithIt" level of PR disaster. My only question to Sony execs is: WHAT THE F**K ARE YOU THINKING??!?!?! Seriously. Let's take the best selling console by FAR this gen and torpedo existing sales, fracture the user base, and alienate customers by releasing a "slightly better" version of the PS4 mid-cycle. I could maybe understand if this was some desperation move from MS for the X1, but the PS4? Why, why, WHY screw up an (up to now) nearly perfectly designed, launched, marketed, and supported console by sh*tting on a 40Mil customer base just to introduce a speed-bump SKU? Stupid, Sony. Very very stupid. I guess it's true; any amount of success in this industry (PS2, Xbox360) breeds corporate greed and hubris. |
Because they need a console that plays UHD Bluray discs and the others are costing more than 500 euros. I doubt Sony is foolish enough to fragment the userbase with exclusive games, that means a whole new gen for them. At most the new console will have better framerates and upscale capability to 4K. This shouldn't be a problem for current PS4 consoles, all Sony needs to do is enforce that games are made with the og PS4 in mind.
