I think the biggest win with that price is you get in the heads of the masses you have this brand new console at a cheaper price then the competitor. Also the very fact Sony are waiting for ms to announce the price tells me they will price it lower no matter what ms do.
I think we can absolutely be certain that the PS5 won't be more expensive than the XBSX. I am pretty certain of that. I am not sure it means they are looking to come in a hundred dollars under the cost of the XBSX.
A billion dollars is nothing compared to what PS+ generates. Having more users invested in the ecosystem is what generates this revenue.
That is an interesting point. I don't know if it will ultimately bare out, but we will see. I will say this, at $399 I am there day one. They are going to REALLY have to sell me at $499.
I don't share the same experience, fortunately. Resetera staff has been rather friendly and accommodating in the past.
I hope they take a second look at my post for their perusal.
I would let it go, my man. Honestly, I agree with your sentiment that the mods here do a good job. I also agree that your post wasn't ban worthy. However, we know that in keeping this place as functional as they do, the mods can sometimes be a little uneven in their application of bans. This is the price we pay to have a gaming forum that isn't overrun with absolute shit. *shrug*
