Forums - Sony - PS4 Price Dropped To $349.99 In US. Rash Folk Got Lucky.

Protendo on 08 October 2015

My money is on a $299 BF base console deal.

Hope the sales gains are worth the pricecut.

And with either Battlefront or Nathan Drake Collection, so that's pretty impressive.


This is great news for me.

Time for me to get a PS4 :)!

And time for me to get the second PS4, as my little son is playing all the time with my PS4 :)

Sony just waited for MS to announce their bundle and pricing to go there and make their price cit in a way that will make ms seem really week if they cut the price of the bundles so close to announcing them (with ridículous price as well). Master stroke.

Yes, I think there's something in that. This could also mean that MS will have all those bundles stuffing the chain for much longer because people will now buy the PS4 over the XB1.


They may announce almost shipped 15M consoles and stay like that for some months.

I think you are right too. Or maybe just maybe, MS priced their bundle that high to that Sony don't kill them with a $100 price cut. lol


300,00 ps4 would be cruelty to x1 and a bless to consumers. Maybe by summer they decide to cut 50 more.

The problem is, because of their rather ambiguous, 'almost shipped', MS are now never going to be able to reveal the actual sold through numbers. On top of that, if they announce shipped numbers now it leaves them with the problem of having to wait much much longer to announce shipped again. Eventually people will start putting 2 and 2 together and working out how many XB1 are actually sold through.

I'm going to wait until Persona 5 releases to get a PS4, but I'm going to need a Persona 5, Mass Effect 4, Final Fantasy 15, Horizon Zero Dawn or The Last Guardian bundle before I get one. Cause I do not want any of those games in those bundles.

In future when users are demonstrating clear signs of "sour grapes" in threads, please refrain from responding to them as it just escalates the issue.

I'll be taking a firm stance with users demonstrating such attitudes when they have been around long enough to know better.


Action against the sour grapes or the one antagonizing the guy?

Agree with you, but who knows how spinning spencer can get.

He'll start talking in terms of 'our platform' but forget to mention that he's also talking about Windows 10. ;)

Finally!!! after almost 2 years. Even if its not enough to beat xb1 in the states, the gap should be lower than last year though I am still expecting another fire sale from MS.
