How in the world is that a valid comparison? Are you under the impression that the high end console market is as big as the high end cell phone market?

- jbverschoor 13y agoIt's actually not about the hardware. It's about the games, movies, music and series. Sony is not aiming just for the 'console' market.
- EpicEng 13y agoThey are in fact aiming for the console market. Hell, the PS4 doesn't even play MP3's and has no appreciable network media sharing features. If you compare the PS4 to the last iteration it is obvious that they have backpedaled from the media center mentality.
- Narishma 13y agoThey haven't so much back-pedaled as prioritized gaming above media functionality for launch. All those missing features will come in future updates.
- EpicEng 13y agoYeah, I know they'll be patching some things in, but those features were not emphasized at all during the marketing blitz. It has been all about gaming.
- qbrass 13y agoThey were trying to push Bluray as a media format when the PS3 was released, having the PS3 act as a media center meant more people would buy Bluray movies. This time, HD-DVD is dead, and everything in your living room already plays streaming media, so it's not much of a selling point.
