From what I've read in a few articles PS4 is suppose to be cheaper than what PS3 was when it first came out.

In my opinion, I don't think it was ever a question. That PS3 launch price was a complete joke and I don't think (maybe I give too much credit) that they'd be dumb enough to do that again. $449 is my guess.

I am thinking they both are going to be $499

2 scenarios (am I crazy)

xbox $199 with 2 year contract of $15/month - total $560 - must register console online with M$ and bill through them. Console will need to be online and if you do not pay, the console will lose connection and hence seize to work.

Scenario 2 Console $499 - 2 years of live - $120 - total $620 console is basically unlocked and doesn't need to be online.

which do you chose...and what is wrong with my methodology. Gotta run...

I know Pachter is throwing around $350 and $400 for PS4 and Xbox One respectively, but that sounds like a total pipe dream.

I did not see that one coming. Actually a pretty cool idea.

Would help to add iOS and Android.


Or add XBLA later this year.


Windows devices only? Meh.
