I honestly think thats missing the intire point of what a console is. Consoles arnt supposed to cost 700$ or anywhere close to that. That would be a bad sign for the industry, those guys in charge have lost it, if someone does that. If scorpio launches and its over 500$ its dead in the water in my opinion. Sony will probably at highest go 449$. Which honestly is fine for a 4.2-4.5 teraflop machine. The visuals the PS4 is capable of are good enough, that you cant really argue for the need of something that much stronger (price matters). Its suicide to build a 700$ console. |
I agree, especially if we are looking at new consoles every 3 years.
If the slim is coming in at $349 there is no way that a console with the latest chip, which has been custom designed for MS to give 6TF, more than 5 times the power of the original will cost any less than $599 unless MS wants to take a big loss per console sold.
