Sony raised the price on PS4 by $50 in canada as well as their games to $70? Wasnt aware of this until just now. IF MSFT did this, people would lose their shit. I guess it is understandable to a degree though since Canada's dollar isnt as high as the USD and Sony is really struggling atm, but still not very cool of them to do either.

Hopefully Microsoft will keep pricing where it's at, would level the playing field in Canada some. |
Nah, id like to see XBO get a pricecut this holiday. After using kinect I 100% believe that Kinect is worth the extra $100 but it doesnt change the fact that it has a bad repuation which is XBO's biggest problem. The perception of the console. I mentioned in this thread before but people tend to focus on the past so much rather than the present and MSFT's late years with X360 was abysmal, most likely because they were preparing for a big launch with XBO, and Kinect on X360 had problems on its own as we all know.
The XBO MSFT this year seems to be an entire new orgnization from 3 years ago, and even last year they seemed entirely different. Theyre releasing more games than ever and Kinect is a new entity, but it wont change people's perception without a lot more work including an eventual price cut
they also increased the price of the ps4 in south africa as well

Ohhhh, gotchya now lol Yeah, i dont think they would do that, though i wouldnt make any bets on it either. The thing is, or at least from what was said back in september 2013, MSFT is profiting off of XBO while i believe Sony is already taking a small loss on PS4. Add this into MSFT being very profitable and their entertainment division profits as well while Sony is losing billions and on the verge of bankruptcy they prob cant afford any further loss, specially considering how hot of a product PS4 is atm.
Shikamaru for everyone they need to improve the website alot.

I think Sony just wants to break even on the device in those countries or make a similar margin of profit on each PS4 as they do in all other countries. I don't know about South Africa, but the PS4 was selling for $359 US dollars here in Canada. That could be losing them money, and given their bad finances, that had to be stopped. So I guess they thought that as long as the PS4 is cheaper than X1, a price increase won't hurt them.
Ok it's so slow lets play a game....
