In all honesty, given what these consoles pack in them now, he's right. Value is in the eye of the beholder to use all of this stuff but if a person were to use everything that these things utilize now, he's definitely correct.

who is saying its every cable provider... :dwillhuh:
it could just be "sign up for verizon internet for x amount of years and get an xbox for $x"..


why does live being their own product have to do with anything... they already offer a cheaper xbox with live contract
Microsoft expands subsidized Xbox 360 offer to 250GB model, from $99
those are both M$ products. i dont see how thats possible given the fact that most cable providers dont serve the same areas (in my area, i can get cox but i can't get verizon.) xbots would riot if they began doing this. ppl would just be assed out because they didn't live in the right neighborhood :what:

Hilarious...these dudes conjuring up that Sony 2006 swag :smugdraper:

That's what I was thinking . Their pr department must of been fired in the past year the way these guys can't spin anything . They better hope ps4 gets pushed back

So are we really whinig about $100 now?

Come on, y'all sitting with some overpriced iPhones and Galaxy's. If $100 is such that astronamic number y'all are just plain haters or y'all got some double standards.

Sony PS4 looks flabby and sick. Xbox one looks like it will be some killer shyt.

Its the swot marketing analysis that has them saying crazy things... If you are more expensive then competition there has to be a belief that your product is worth more or your catering to a more upscale market

The more i think about it ms might gimp themselves with being 100 more but their goal may be to be more profitable but then again they are including kinect so not sure they would have a margin advantage....somebody crunched the numbers for them i wonder what their estimates are

Yeah Goldz....your boy don't know shyt. Sounds like some MS fanboys in denial told you :duck:

Well if that ain't true I'm getting ps4 first. I could get both but what's the point? Halo ain't made by Bungie anymore & destiny looks like the new halo anyway. Killzone looks dope. I just wish they bring vehicles back to socom and that sh!t would be dope. S3 was good but ps2 limitations killed it.

:yeshrug: Didn't sound like he said anything bad to me. Dudes is Reaching :russ:

At this point it's a perception thing with Microsoft . They look elitist and every future comment is keeping that image alive . Sony can spin this and make them seem even more arrogant

how is ps4 looking flabby and sick :rudy:
:rudy: you sound like a complete fan boy .. It's not the price it's principle of not everyone wants kinect and yet you have to pay for one to get the system , the no constant offline play etc ... Ms is doing a good job of getting the benefits of the system out there

They aren't doing a good job of explaining the value . They need to release a bunch of ads showing how useful a Xbox could be to a family's entertainment experience ., you guys don't realize that not every consumer is educated about this type of stuff . They'll look and see a higher price point , see the ps4 and say hey Sony is a good brand .

PS4 is better overall in hardware specs, value, price, etc, etc

Plus we don't have Microb1tch watching our @sses on some creepy big brother ish.

I know breh, it makes them seem out of touch. I get that, however, they need to better clarify things and not live in their bubble.
