Do you think that could again screw Sony's chance at dominance (or at least 2nd place :P ) next-gen?

Microsoft's Peter Moore has revealed a thought that Xbox will be the first console platform company to release a new generation system to the market.

Sony screwed itself this Gen. No one wants to pay $900+ for a console. If people wanted to spend that much on a gaming utensil then they would get a PC.

Anyone who bought a ps3 at 900 dollars needs to be electrocuted.

Actually in NZ PS3s were $1200 at launch. now they are only gone down to $600 because of the slim. Currency diffs and all.

The same thing that will happen to the PS3 life span. Will sell for 10 years but a the next console comes out 6-7 year within its life span.

I agree that sony screwed themself with the high price and lack of games. I have been a PS3 owner since launch but i felt ripped off with the high price and the lack of games so i wont be buying the PS4 at lauch next time. This will also hurt Sony as any new consoles need to get the totalnumber of consolesold up fast to getmulti-plateform developersmaking games for them as shown at the start of the PS3 life.

I got burned by Nintendo, and i won't buy their next console on day one, Sony either, and probably not MS either, because i want to wait and see how the race looks before I jump in, at least for a few months. :)

i highly doubt it, the first xbox was a really solid peice of kit, i still have 2 working ones,my son has one of them and it's been kicked dropped and had stuff spilt on it and it still works a dream,they made a mistake this gen, but not one they are likely to repeat,once bitten,twice shy, MS are doing what they always do, throw money at the market and undercut everyone else until you own it, they skimped out with the 360, but it ended up costing them more money, so they are not likely to make the same mistake

I assume you did that all as a joke to piss off fanboys right? If so, bravo. If it was serious then I'm lumping you into the fanboy section :P.

It seems very important that Microsoft release a system before the ps4 hits.I don't think theywant to go head to head with the PS4with potentially the same priced boxes launching in the same year. That would put them behind in 2 territories and they'd have a heck of a battle in NA otherwise. I don't think Sony will need to include a new format next time either so they probably won't be hampered by pricepoint as much like this gen , they lived ... they learned.(hopefully) I'm guessing the PS4 hits holiday 2012 at $400 .... and the 360 late 2011 at $400 (with a pricedrop on the ps3's launch). :twisted:

Both systems will have blu-ray standard(faster drives) and motion controller packed-in imo for the casual market.

People gotripped off then, cause the PS3 retailed for $599.99 at launch.

Well if MS go through with this, for the love of god don't rush the system to the market.
