In a way, he's right. A lot of consumers aren't going to care about the specs. They'll look at the price, in which a vast majority are going to pick up the cheaper system. Either way, Sony has an advantage.

Tons of studies on the link between real world violence and video game violence showed no link almost 100% of the time. Yet, when there is a study done on how video games actually help people with mental illnesses (especially depression), it gets very little press and not talked about by these same politicians making these claims every day, week, month, year, etc.

Always have to find something to blame when tragedies like this happen. It's never enough that the person committing the act was just crazy and never got the help he needed.

@Cordliss Completely agree.

Guess they saw that it was setting up to be the biggest console bomb since the 3DO.

They still need to get rid of required Kinect though. I'll get a PS4 first.

Hmm, I swear I heard Sony say something like this when they announced the PS3 price. And thousands of them were collecting dust until they lowered the price.

When you're all about the supporting the customer, you win both their respect and their money. Kudos gentlemen. I'll gladly pay full price for Witcher 3 just as I did for 1 and 2.

And a buddy of mine just lent me Nier. While some parts of it could have been better, I would have gladly paid full price for that game when it came out. It had 4 different endings that changed your perspective of the story each time. I would love it if more developers would make games like that.

@TheGamerPhenom @hunter8man To defend shorter games, one game that I will keep forever is Killer 7. It can be beat in 6-8 hours, and is pretty much a rail shooter. But the fact that it's so original, and so much fun to play gives it a permanent place on my shelf.

That's a big reason why I don't buy game with short campaigns anymore. If it's 8-12 hours of non-memorable gameplay, I'll rent it. But something like Skyrim, Ni No Kuni, Borderlands 2, Deadly Premonition, The Last of Us, etc. Those are fairly long games with either good gameplay, involving storylines (save for Skyrim), or offers something different when you replay it that will prompt me to keep it.

Fantastic. Although having multiplayer or co-op modes isn't a bad thing, it's good to know that they will be solely focused on delivering a great single-player campaign.
