2. 720 is strongly rumored to release in September. Atleast according to all the leaks (which so far, have been accurate). 


Really?! Which leak was that?

When was Battlefield 4 announced to be coming this year? And if so all those multi platform games will also be on the xbox 720's launch so I guess it will have a crowded launch as well.


1. EA will not miss out on XMas sales for BF4

2. 720 is strongly rumored to release in September. Atleast according to all the leaks (which so far, have been accurate). 

3. This was posted in the Sony forum. Why are you even bringing up 720? seems like youre trying to incite a flame war. 


Yeah because in a PS4 thread people don't bring up the competition. Also your info is based off of rumors of the 720 launching in September, when I have heard rumors saying novemver, october, 2014 etc... rumor is a rumor. All three of your points have no merit to them. 

You should be modded. 

It's not like anyone here goes into Halo threads and tries bringing up Killzone. 

 

as far as "rumors" go... the most popular one is that 720 is coming out in Sept, and that wont be changed "without heads rolling at MS Headquarters"

a final fantasy game would send japan into meltdown

Well that would be a sight to see I haven't seen any new Halo threads in a while.

I'm not counting on it and dont think its realistic.

SE is really under horrible management.

KZ Shadowfall will really have a difficult time competing with both Battlefield and COD.


That was mentioned in the OP.

Sony should bundle KZ:Shadowfall with the more expensive PS4 SKU. I'm sure they will market it as one of their premiere games, but COD and BF have massive marketing campaigns so it will be tough either way.

 

A lot of it will come down to reviews. (Yes, reviews help sell games. Look at U2 and Journey)

Well, bundling will only make the console bundle more expensive for Sony. And, an expensive console bundled with an expensive game isn't a very smart business decision. 

If Unchartered is a launch game, then I don't think it will have too much trouble competing with those big titles.

When bundling that game helps you sell a console for an extra $100, it's a smart business move.

Why would they need to bundle Killzone? It's a series that does pretty good on its own and being a PS4 exclusive will really help as people will want to show the graphics off. Also it's way too soon to judge its gameplay as just a generic shooter.

Defiantly agree it will be crowded though.

Hahahaha

You: PS4 will have the most crowded launch EVER!
Another guy: Ehm, the next Xbox might launch with the same games, so the launch will be more or less the same.
Another guy II: When it comes to a crowd of people, the Wii is probably the most crowded launch ever.
You: STOP DERAILING MY THREAD! THIS IS ABOUT THE PS4 !!!!111

you guys never fail to amuse me.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...
