I remember when the console prices were announced, at an E3 conference I think it was. The wild cheering when Sony announced the PS4's price would be $100 less than the XBone was surprising.
- mattmanser 11y agoXBone release a load of details which everyone hated. PS4 says, hey everybody we're not doing any of that. And. And. And...... We're $100 cheaper. Why was the cheering a surprise? It's classic showmanship. And they could afford to do it because they weren't bundling the controversial kinect.
- Zikes 11y agoIt was surprising because in between announcements a lot of people were still rooting for Microsoft. Call it fanboyism, brand loyalty, media spin, or maybe even Stockholm Syndrome, but a $500 Kinect-laden console actually seemed to sound appealing to the XBox crowd.
