The PS4 is able to command a higher price. The Batman PS4 is $100 more than the Xbox One. The theories about the people only caring about price are dead. Its really amazing actually.

That can apply to some dates as christmas and black friday were people will jump into the lower prices, but it's very obvious people want the best thing, and they think it is the PS4 so much they are willing to pay more for it as a prove.

Also it just got a pretty nice hit with Bloodborne to help this be easier to see again.

MS better don't let price parity happen.

Price parity will happen eventually unless MS is willing to sell the XBO for free. What's freaky is that the PS4 continues to sell well even without an additional game bundled with it. Meanwhile, the XBO is still ways behind even when COD: AW is offered for free with the AC bundle.

It's also very peculiar to see a new bundle (MCC) have so little of a sales impact.

Nope it's the price. Last November and December are solid proof.

...or so I've been told.

Wii U continues to rise, currently at 68. Direct hype? List price decrease?

Xenoblade Chronicles 3D continues to climb, now stable in the top 20 at number 17. Can it roll with the big boys in the top 10?! We'll see in a few days.

Smash+Pricecut=beast mode, currently at 4 and stable there for a while.

Mario Party 10 still putting up an admirable effort all things considered, at 27 right now.

Oh damn, PS4 version of Mortal Kombat X is already #4.


And no sign of the XBO version. Seems like it'll be Type-0 all over again, but this one is a bigger one.

And PS4 will also have an exclusive Street Fighter...

So the XBO can't compete with the PS4 in any kind of game other than shooter? And that's considering the only market there should be some competition, damn...

If this keep going MS will need to pay a lot of even get the games to their console, as exclusivity on the PS4 will looks like a sweet deal.

thats because for some reason, you cant order the regular MKX from amazon, i searched for it, and couldnt find it. so even if its there, the fact that its very hard to find explains why its a no show.

Any one think that MS needs to achieve parity with PS4 in a value and perception way ? This could be a sub 300 dollar way in relation to a 399 PS4, harder will be if and when PS4 gets its price cut.

What? You cant order MKX from amazon? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KOOUW82/ref=twister_B00KOOUVNI?ie=UTF8&psc=1



GAMING is not about spending hours to pass/waste our time just for fun,

its a Feeling/Experience about a VIRTUAL WORLD we can never be in real, and realizing some of our dreams (also creating new ones).

So, Feel Emotions, Experience Adventure/Action, Challenge Game, Solve puzzles and Have fun.

PlayStation is about all-round "New experiences" using new IP's to provide great diversity for everyone.

Xbox is always about Online and Shooting.

Nintendo is always about Fun games and milking IP's.
