especially for which ever one flops hard and right now the ps5 situation is not looking the best as Microsoft we have seen games, the system itself, and controllers, the ps5 we have gotten a logo and a controller. specs wise the have minor differences though depending on which rumors are true the ps5 might have cooling issues which again is not good.  also Microsoft i think is waiting for the price to be reveled for the ps5 just to under cut it as again that would get people on there side. For starting libraries the series X has a bigger one by a land slide as it has all Xbox one and 360 and a good chunk of the original Xbox on day one the ps5 only has 100 ps4 games conformed with the whole ps4 to come that's it.  So save as much money as you can Sony as it is about to hurt unless they can bring in some major overhauls or Microsoft beans it again. 

People have been begging for a PS4 price cut for years now, and it makes less sense to do it now than ever.  Why lower the price now when it's still selling, and they can't possibly meet increased demand during the pandemic?  I just checked a number of online retailers (US based) and the PS4 is sold out everywhere I've seen, unless you want to pay at least $350 for a slim on Amazon.

If Sony knocked $100 off the price of the PS4, they'd have to sell at least 50% more units than what they're selling now in order to break even.  In these times they can't produce enough to keep up with current demand, let alone 50% more.  Keeping the price stable now isn't arrogance, it's common sense.

so you are saying the ps4 has a bigger library than the xbox one 360 and orignal xbox? if you have only tested 100 with it only a few months away it means you wont have the full library ready at the start so again its going to be like the 3ds vs the vita the 3ds had the whole ds to fall back on while the vita had nothing which lead to a large gap very early on 

and that might be the case but when you haven't even show the device off with almost 6 months to it getting on market when everyone else has shown their devices and said what they can do to the world. That leads people like myself to believe that there is a bigger issue going on with the console as a whole meaning why even test these games for a device that may or may not come out.  So while if everything goes well it might have 1000's of games at launch it might have fewer as this is the same company that says PS3 emulation is hard when in fact groups have done it pretty easy on current gen systems.  It is a wait and see game but i feel like there may be issues with the PS5.

Though this is Sony arrogance and greed are their middle names.  Look at things like the PS3 launch and then the Sony scandal back in 2018 with games like Minecraft and Fortnite not being able to play with other consoles just PS4 and in fortnite's case mobile phones.  So while a price cut might at this moment seem practical when the virus passes it wont happen (or happen so late that no one cares) because Sony likes to be Sony and that is arrogance and greedy.  One day that arrogance will be the death of them and some of those things are why I have yet to buy a PS4 I own a switch and an Xbox one (the VCR model) along with a ton of consoles most being from Nintendo and out of all of these I bought a ton of my consoles new and again most were from Nintendo expect the Xbox one and the PS2 i own which were also new. The PS2 was when i was really on the Sony hype and then the PS3 happened and that killed the hype for me i would one day get a PS3 but many years later and used.  For the PS4 i will probably do the same.

why wasn't the PS4 backward compatible with the PS3 it is because the PS3 was too hard to put in a PS4 but now time has passed you could put a PS5 that could have the whole libraries of the PS4, PS3, PS2, and PS1 especially the last two because they are quite easy to do but why sell you library short just physical games alone the first 3 Sony consoles have over 4,000 games and while they haven't said why they didn't do for the PS5 it is probably a similar reason why Nintendo never put GameCube games in any of the virtual consoles as they always said it was "too hard to do".  Rumors come up in a time like this when a console hasn't been shown off the only image we have is a drawing of what looks like a dev kit. When you competition shows off their new product you try and show yours off very close to that time why so you can upstage or blunt the blow from them showing theirs off first and with the game the Sony and Microsoft play every generation every first is key especially at the start.  why because people talk about it and they build up hype for the product while some trash on the other because of the waits and delays so in a time like this people start to wonder is something wrong? When ever I get one of the consoles the one I would pick up right now is the Series X as a i know what it looks like and know people's opinions on and it also allows me to play my Xbox one and 360 games which means right out the gate i already have more games for than the ps5 as I have yet to pick up a PS4 and it will be some time before I do as i wait for it to get cheap like 50 or 60 bucks.  

1.)  Since when is 10 million the bar?  Out of 10's of thousands of games, only a small percentage sell even a million.  Even fewer sell 5 or 10 million.  Getting to the top 50 is a ridiculous bar for "being a huge commercial success".  

2.)  Because making good games, isn't the same thing as making popular games.  There's a lot of overlap, but making popular games includes things like solid marketing.  Not to mention that multiplayer games tend to be more popular.  Is Wii Play a fantastically better game than any Sony/MS game?  Is Wii Sports nearly the epitome of great gaming?  The latter PS3 and PS4 gens were the first time that Sony had a major hit, largely because they got way better at pushing their own games.  
Spiderman on PS4 seems likely to join the top 50.   It sold 13.2 million in less than 11 months.
