a price comparison

PS3 (launch price) (todays conversion rate)

India - INR 40,000 ----> £565, $800
UK - £425 --------> INR 30,000
US - $599 --------> INR 32,000

this is just to show the gap difference between Indian pricing to the west. Now if ps4 is INR 28,000 (its already cheaper than PS3 in UK) So In India it will be 28k, and we go by above disparity in price..

UK PS4 - £254
US PS4 - $366

Thats a bit unrealistic figure.. still if we remove the disparity INR 10k for uk and 8k for US

UK PS4 - £300
US PS4 - $399
INDIA PS4 - 28k that's about $500

(hope this makes sense)

Why did Sony india have a price point in euros??

They didn't. It was converted to Euros by the European websites reporting it

am i the only one here from India... If as ur saying the price was converted from INR to euros then believe me it will be much cheaper in Euros around 320 euros coz Sony always has sold PS in india about 20% higher than european prices (PS3 60 gig launched at 565 euros)... and it will be much more cheaper in US.

above statement is only valid if the conversion were done from INR to euros, and yes PS india site always quote price in INR. And this will be the first time q PS will launch simultaneously with west...

p.s. PS3 slim launched at the same time as west for 315 euros.. what was the slim launch price in europem i know in US it was $299. its $300 currently for 12 gb ps3. here in india!

I think the slim was 299 Euros in Europe.

So the price might actually be 350 Euros for the cheapest model if true. I still think 399 though

399 dollars or euros

no matter how good you are,theres always someone better/buying more games then you.

but you'll also find your master.someone buying 6 games.(i'll buy 4 because of my budget-600,one bundled game with ps4 for 440 rest for games)

only problem:what shall we do when only 3 games are released first day??

250 gb might be one of the option, maybe it will be the highest one coz i believe PS4 might be using SSD to support their Go-Play tech and take advantage of that GDDR5 bandwidth. Going with higher capacity SSD will only increase the price
