Why are you guys talking about PS4 being out of stock on Amazon when it is not ? Was it recently and I missed it ?

It's just a general assessment of the stock issues it's had over the last month or so. It's been in and out of stock none stop. At the moment it's in stock.

ps4 is available at every where except amazon, so the theory doesn't make sense

So why do YOU think Sony are not restocking as they were on Amazon? 

Well, I can't speak for him, but Amazon is consistently out of stock sooner than others recently with all platforms.  I don't know if they've pissed some people off or are incompetent or if they aren't expanding their games business fast enough to keep up with the growth in people buying from the platform.

For several weeks Amazon said it would be delivered in 2-4 weeks, and 2 days ago it still said 2-3 weeks until delivery.

Now that it's in stock again, we will see clearer how the PS4 fares on Amazon post-Monster Hunter World

I totally agree with the holiday pricecuts. I was saying the same thing about causing sales to drastically drop going into the new year. I defended Sony for only doing a pricecut over a few days with a limited stock to not cause the situation, like you said, people will wait. 

But I think Sony will be smarter about cutting the price. They have GoW around the corner plus exclusives dotted throughout the year to keep up the momentum without dropping price. I expect them to use their older games to make bundles. Or GoW 1TB bundle for $300. I think that's as extreme as they'll go. 

I think Sony want to keep clear of the $250 price until about September/October with a $199 bundle for a few days over black Friday. 

Well, yeah ... A price cut may not just be a drop of the standalone but the current price with a game (or two). Either way it would be considered a price drop in my opinion.

God of War isn't big in Japan. God of War 3 sold the most at 120k. The new one wouldn't change it.

Sorry, I meant that GoW 1TB would be as exteme as the go but don't expect it. 500Gb with GoW for $300 is what I expect. Same with Far Cry if they have the marketing deal. They could also bundle 3 or 4 older PS4 games with 500GB for $300. If they decide to do these bundles with the 1TB then it might retail for $350.

What would be "big" for GoW?  I think falling in the 200K-300K range would be great for it.  I think it can do ~150K though.
