Right, lemme just go ahead and drop my PS+, abandon my hard-earned trophy score, abandon all the games I already own digitally, sell my physical collection, sell my PS4 Pro, pre-order an Xbox Scorpio, and get all my friends to do the same.

 

Oh wait, no. That's stupid. This generation is too far in for a change to the status quo.

Yea, that's why the Scorpio isn't changing much.  If you look at sales, interest in the XBO at $249 has started to drop, even in the US.  Having a $400-$500 version with prettier graphics isn't going to help much.  Especially since it'll only appeal to people in a handful of regions to begin with.

And while it's not the biggest reason to switch/stay, I think Sony coming up with a better trophy system is going to help.  I mean the gamerscore just seems outdated, like keeping score in Atari games.  It sure wasn't enough to keep people with Xbox, like some thought it might.  Having it work more like leveling up in a RPG just seems more interesting to me.  Again, I don't think it'll be a big reason, but I think it'll part of the reason people stay with PS this and next gen.

I never saw trophies on Playstation as a RPG level up system but now that you mention it... yeah it totally is, damn now i feel the need to get more platinums, im definitely getting the ones from the games im playing this year since they are all awesome games that deserve it.

to the OP well... its kind of expected that it would have the best versions.
