So basically they'll be really cheap in a year.  So when people say the scorpio will save them spending $300 on a standalone player it's a ridiculous statement.  

 

Yeah I kinda would like to watch 4K content now though if I have a 4KTV now. Not sitting around for a year and watching 1080p or shitty stream content for a year and trying to imagine how good it would look like in actual 4K with a good bit rate. 

And even "cheap in a year" still means probably like $200+ for a decent player. 

The XBox One S is the best 4K Blu-Ray player for the price, which is kind of lame. It means if you have a 4KTV and you want to watch 4K movies on your TV, really your best option is to buy an XBox One now as well, on top of getting a PS4/Neo. 

What if in 12 months the scorpio costs $600 and the Ps Pro costs $350 and a UHD blu ray $50? Or even add an extra $100 what's still only $500. 

 

You have every right to be upset but you have to realise the mass market does not care.  Very few people will be bothered by this.  Unlucky for you,  but lucky for me who couldn't care less.  A cheaper ps4 pro that focuses on the games.  That's what I want and I imagine the sales over the next year will prove it's what the market wants.
