I wonder what Sony are preparing for BF. Microsoft is definitely going big and probably for the last time but Sony might choose to cut the costs since it really doesn't need to make a big effort to sell consoles.


If last year is anything to go by, they will do something like $300 console with 2 games. Stock will be limited and probably sell out very quickly.

And if I'm right about the PS4 actually being $300 then Sony can start bundling TLOUR in again (with one extra game) for $300. I think that's why they dropped the TLOUR bundle. It would have confused matters because they already had a bundle for $350. They want to perpetuate the idea that the $350 bundles come with a FREE game when in actual fact the bundle is $300 with a $50 game. I just feel so convinced of this.

I think it will stay $350 but next year it will be bundled with a first party game, probably Nathan Drake collection. Maybe $350 with NDC and TLOU. Either way I think they will try and keep it $350 for profit.

I'm referring to Black Friday here. Of course if they PS4 is meeting their projected targets they're not going to want to throw that extra profit away, but it's there 'just in case'. That's why it's difficult to prove my theory right. It will only be seen as right if Sony HAVE to put it into affect or they feel they can produce more consoles than they thought they could and want to shift them before the fiscal year ends.

Good to see ps4 still way ahead. Those starwars bundles and cod bundles should provide a great buffer incase ms does something. Looks like no pricecut like last year. Only BF deals. PS4 should win the month. There will be no repeat of last year.
