You raise a point I forgot to mention too. The crazy price is almost a slap in the face. It's so bad that it makes people want to buy an xbox just out of spite. On top of it all, had they not released, people might have simply held off until they did, but now that both one and ps4 are on the market, people are choosing now, and choosing the competition. Point is, had they not released, it's likely that fewer xbox ones would be selling. I think that's a pretty good theory.

At some extension, that did happened to me. I bought the One thinking "It is so much cheaper, it comes with a crazy camera, it has Dead Rising 3..." All this.
And I cried, I literally cried when Sony Br announced the price. And I never cry, for nothing.
Granted, I had some emotional problems after my fiance betrayed me last year and I moved from the city I used to live to stay away from her, but, I DID cried, because I felt like Sony Br betrayed my love for the brand.
And, I almost have no desiree to support them anymore, but I will buy the PS4 because of the amazing first party games from Sony, but only when the price drops to the same level that Xbox One is now, at least.
And when you put this kind of hate on your fans, the little things start to matter. A while ago I was checking out that App I mentioned, the Xbox Fitness, and I COULD NOT BELIEVE that such a thing even could exist, it is really cutting edge stuff.
And I spend hundreds of dollars on move controlers, motion fitness games like Sport Champions and The Fight, I LOVE this kind of stuff when it works.
And it freaking works with the Kinect 2.0.
Now, I understand why you guys hate MS, the price is 100 dollars more to you guys.
But, put yourselves in my place, IT IS ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS cheaper here in Brazil. That is Sony BR BIG MISTAKE, when you put a price like that, everything else will do will suck, and everthing else the competition do is AMAZING.
It was a really really really dumb move.
