Who said they were freaking out?

I seen rumors that they were adjusting plans based on Microsofts announcement.

How do you know they weren't planning on $349.99 / $399.99, and now they are adjusting to $349.99 / $449.99?

Really at this point it is just different levels of how much Sony wants to sting Microsoft. They will easily outsell XBS at $399 / $499, and be profiting on the Disk model and taking a very small lose on the Digital model.

If they want to give the PS5 a little token for the fence sitters, then they can put the Disk version out at $449, and take a small loss per unit, and keep the Digital model at $399.

Dig a little deeper and they could go $349 Digital and $449 Disk. This does both the S and X dirty, and would basically give Sony a similar price mic drop moment going into next gen that they had with PS1 and PS4.

I wouldn't bother.. having read his stuff again he sounds suspect lol.

On a flip side, their price is most probably going to be $399/$499. But it feels good to make predictions that have a less than 5% chance of happening lol. As many have said, even if sony could do it, there is just no reason for them to go under $399. Hell if they did that MS would likely win an antitrust suit against them lol. A $350 and $399 PS5 kills Xbox. Period.
