If Microsoft really does go third party and Sony has the only console best believe they can mark 100 dollar games and the 1000 dollar console is coming. As much as I dislike Microsoft’s business practices competition is always good and keeps the other competitor in check.

That being said it would be nice if a new challenger comes through. I think Apple has potential but they would need to be very serious on how they approach gaming.

What you mean nah a 1000 dollar console is still cheaper than a top tier gaming pc. A lot of nikkaz paid 1000 dollars for a ps5 when they couldn’t find it on the shelf so let’s not act like it’s not far fetched.

a 1000 console 'still being cheaper than a top tier gaming pc' doesn't matter. A top tier gaming pc is... ya know. A computer. That does stuff other than play games. A machine like that is usable for other things and provides a more clear lane into streaming content. That's the parlay now - people understanding that getting a machine + capture card to stream their games on twitch/youtube/kick is about as expensive as that PC.

But... that also blows up the concept of the console market. You make a system a band and the folk that only play COD/Madden/2K/<insertBatleRoyale> are going to either reconsider their hobbies or worse: start demanding equivalent quality for the money.

PC gaming has a bunch of marketplaces to obtain games, with a whole piracy black market and resellers all over the place. You get a PC you can find what you are looking for, if you look enough. Consoles, you're locked on one marketplace.

They ain't doin consoles that expensive without making them modular for ease of upgrade. That, or once they hit the visual deadpoint where the human eye stops being able to perceive the variations. We're close. But once we get there... all that's left is PC :yeshrug:

Even if M$ goes third party you best believe there is going to be sometype of streaming box or something they'll introduce to fill the gap. Sony will not get away with a 1000 console without someone jumping in to cover the midrange market. Too much money to be made if Sony fukks up.

These Xbot horror stories related to Sony's plans when Xbox goes 3rd party are corny.

Nintendo pretty much has the handheld space all to themselves and are they charging crazy prices?

It's just cope because they know it's over.

Yet, here i am still wondering why nintendo doesn’t charge 100 dollars for games since they ALSO don’t seem to have competition?



You’d think people concerned about sony having a monopoly would also be concerned of the console platform that has multiple games that sold over 30, 40, 50, and now 60 million copies.

No they didn’t because they had weak console sales with the Wii u so they had to make the switch affordable. Look what happened with the PS3 they were trying to push a 600 dollar console at that time and they were arrogant jacking the price up. They learned from Microsoft being the cheaper alternative but take that out of the equation now that they are going third party.

I don’t put anything pass Sony when there’s no competition to them that they won’t try some fukkery. They been trying to get their exclusives to a 100 dollars now look at the tiers they have for online. Arrogant Sony is going to come back in some form if Xbox goes third party.

Where did Sony say they we're trying to get their games to sell at 100?
