As if that's going to be hard, but seriously, I've convinced some friends who are 360 owners to go for the PS4, I am literally responsible for taking business away from Microsoft, and you know what, it feels good, like a marshmallow castle in the sky.

PS4 doesn't need my help.  GitS on the other hand is undervalued.  Can't wait for Arise to be localized.

Knowing the mentality of day to day shoppers, gamers, shoppers in general, Once they see the price difference, the greater majority will automatically go for the PS4. Of course the clerk will tell them the positives, negatives being hardly any,Which will further seal the deal.

worked in electronic retail for almost 8 years.

 

I still remember stories from when the PS3 launched at 600$..good times.

I'm sure Sony already has enough fanboys on the street corners with signs and megaphones preaching the "Good Word of Sony" and how it will save their souls or something like that.:P

You are a terrible friend to try and sway their right to own will. Also taking business away from competition is a horrible thing. Without options Sony (or any company) would never move forward. They would charge whatever they want. Competition is good. So is free will. When the consoles release and the Xbox brand does just fine it will prove fan boys are fan boys. I will promote all consoles. I love me some super mario galaxy and some uncharted. Why would I want to stop people from enjoying the games that are offered by all companies.

Thats what I'm thinking, it would take one terrible mistake after another for Sony to lose momentum now.

Most gamers I know are already sold on it.

Didn't even need to convince my friends that were 360 owners. All but one person is getting a PS4. The one person that is getting an Xbox One also owns a Windows Phone (lol).

Shit I am. One reason I am moving away from PC gaming is because every time a new gpu would come out, I would have to get two. It's not that games needed it, I just wanted the best out. It is probably a sickness, but whateves. Now I want the new big consoles since I'm a consolite now I suppose. Plus I wasn't feeling the PC exclusives anymore, and with 50 hour work weeks, I just want to plug and play.

Sounds reasonable. Talkin' bout illness, I used to start fiddling with the graphics settings every time a game started to have slowdown, on consoles I just take it like a man (goshdarnit). It's not that bad anymore though.

Shit man, I did that too. If a game dropped in frames I had to fix it or I couldn't keep playing. I don't know what it is. Plus I would always pay more attention to the damn fraps number instead of the game.

That is usually the case with PC gamers, their compulsiveness tends to be pathological, better times are coming.

If you see an accident about to happen you don't say: "Oh well it's their choice so I'll just let it happen."
No, you do something about it.
That is your responsibility.
