I think Y'all forgot Sony planned on a late feb/early March announcement up until Corona became a big deal. There's no 'reactionary' actions here, aside from them maybe waiting to see what Xbox did so they could ruin them in price again. 

But Xbox didn't announce a price as far as I can tell, soooo....? 

Well, I hope they disclose the specs so we can compare both consoles, and know which are their strengths and weakness.

why, though? Xbox One X didn't make people flock to that console, so why would it matter here? PS4 and Xbox One had virtually identical specs at launch and both sold similar numbers over the first month or so, it wasn't until the disparity between games became evident that PS4 really pulled ahead. 

Corona affects Ms too, and yet they released the specs first. Lol why is this such a big deal? I get it, Sony is the top dog. It’s ok they were undercut by 2 days. It’s not a big deal and in the grand scheme this means nothing 

This is standard business 101. The Xbox x came too late to make a difference. However at the start of the gen it’s the core gamers that define the user base and less so the casuals that follow. You must factor in everything at play, both sides care about power and if you say otherwise....well at least my side is honest with what we want, there’s no false modesty at play ;)

Because those will be the base models that will set the bar of what can be expect from their developments. We'll get an idea of what kinds of troubles will devs face when working with them (will one have more RAM? Faster CPU or more powerful GPU?, etc.) and if we should expect noticeable differences between the ports of the same game on both consoles (higher and/or more constant resolution and FPS).

Plus, until next games start to be shown, that all we'll have to discuss.

Then why are you trying to make such a big deal out of it? My point was simply that this isn't Sony being reactionary - they always planned on releasing info around this time and the only reason Xbox got to it first was because Sony delayed. If anything, Microsoft was reacting to Sony's absence - if you wanna go that route of logic. Just saying, when you WANT to see something, it's not hard to twist the facts to suit your narrative. 

At the end the most exciting will be when we See the First games

Love any time Mark Cerny talks

It’s ironic that you are twisting yourself. Sony delayed...Um ok? MS didn’t and went first. Sony announced a reveal event literally the day after MS showed theirs. That’s reactionary. Yes I get it Sony planned to do something around this time but you certainly can’t prove it was always going to be tomorrow.

MS went first, and Sony reacted. They didn’t scramble but are following a planned general timeline. This isn’t even bias but what actually is happening. To say anything to the contrary tells me something...a superiority complex?
