I dunno, it's cheaper than the PS3 was at launch and it's comparable to the top end 360 at launch too. I think it's not a competitive pricing but it's not the "hurr durr let's charge eleventy billion dollars for it" mentality that crippled the early days of the PS3, incidentally it's also $100 MORE than most predictions I saw from analysts before the actual announcement. Sony could become a BIG winner in the next few hours.

We'll see the console (I hope).
Prices will be confirmed and it'll likely be cheaper than the XBOX 1.
New Killzone
Beyond: Two Souls
New God of War (?)
Gran Tourismo 6
Infamous 3
The Last of Us will feature heavily, possibly uncharted 4.
I'd wager no new IPs and very few exclusives. Which is a shame since Microsoft won out last generation because of both pricing and exclusives but there's still over an hour before go time so who knows

From the looks of it Sony just killed it.

As long as the system or a model thereof costs less than $500, they just sold themselves a PlayStation.

Might as well go ahead and put a stop on the auto renewal of my Xbox Live account.
I fully expected Sony to have the same Draconian security as Microsoft. Turns out that they still get it. Sony can just shut up and take all of our rupees.

The only "negative" about Sony's conference is that you need PS+ to play online multiplayer.
That's offset by offering a free PS4 retail game (DriveClub) on launch day (granted it is a "Playstation Plus edition"), along with PS4PSN games.
Sony just raped Microsoft. Big-time.

The standing ovations for the digs at Microsoft killed me. 2013 won't be a bad year at all.

Eventually they may have to, but they can't do it right away, they can't show weakness immediately. Can't let the people know that you can be bullied into changing your policies (even if they're bullyish themselves).
My guess is at E3 2014 (if there is one) Microsoft will end the DRM stuff, unless it's somehow wildly successful.
Oh, and Nintendo never had that stuff by the way. Just to point that out. Everyone seems to forget that.

I don't think people forgot so much as they didn't care to begin with. Xbox One will still outsell the Wii U.

True that. I'm just not seeing it with the Wii U. Don't really mind being wrong on this one. I'm not getting either one.

I'd be shocked if XBox One outsells the Wii U. There will always be a place for Nintendo in the gaming world because there will always be a new generation of gamers who have parents that grew up loving Nintendo games so they buy their kids Nintendo games. Those kids will grow up into the old generation of gamers that love the classic titles and characters Nintendo has given us, and eventually buy those games for their kids. They've created an amazing cycle of consumers, and they might know their audience better than any other company.

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No it's Supermod!
And it's 200GBP cheaper.
