What's $199.5 plus 199.5?

It's a console launch. There are some hardcore Forza (XB1 exclusive) fans and some hardcore sports gamer fans (think FIFA, multiplatform) who have purchased the new consoles. Destiny has the potential to sell a lot of consoles but I don't think it will. Little Big Planet 3 will help sell a lot of PS4s. Halo Master Chief Edition will sell a ton of Xbox Ones, as will Halo 5 in 2015.
In any case, it's clear that Sony has won the race for early adopters by a fair margin, though I believe both are not moving as fast as people had thought.
I still don't see any reason to upgrade past my PS3. I just it mostly for amazon/Netflix and once I actually watched a blue ray on it. After the Last of Us, Heavy Rain, and I am working on the Drakes series I don't see much to play. So PC still gets my time mostly.
From what I read, both Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo are greatly disappointed with next gen sales. But Sony is clobbering Microsoft on numbers just.
Basically, perhaps it's just you don't see the big picture. Or PS4 is not optimized by software to use all the power it possesses from the "architecture".
There are things behind the scenes like the cloud that offload calculations done from the console to boost performance from server side. There is also Direct3D 12 which is exclusive to the Xbox One. For what it is worth I believe Microsoft is getting more out of what little they supposedly have.
90% of the people saying PS4 has no games, or has no games coming in the near future, are CLEARLY X-Box Fanboi's.
Now I am a hardware junky, so, at first glance, the PS4 wins, hardware in mind.
They both have GREAT exclusives, but it all comes down to which one has MORE exclusives YOU want to play?
PS4 has almost DOUBLED X-Box One sales as of right now. Now factor in Vita Sales since the release of the PS4, that has also doubled.
It will be a close race, but Sony got a FREE head-start. Lets see how it pans out.

Just get what you like who really cares which is better... I mean they are both massive upgrades from the previous gen.
I for one am impressed by how much of an upgrade the Xbox one is over the Xbox 360. I love the UI and how easy and quick it is to jump in and out of games. Also the controller is better on the xbox over the ps4. I am not concerned about some games running at lower res right now. With directX 12 coming out they are claiming double the spend, with the 10% extra they just add recently removing it from the Kinect and even if they get a 20-30% with directx 12 it will be the same as the PS4 if not faster then.
So really get what you want and just enjoy it.

There's no incentive to upgrade. Microsoft doesn't offer backwards compatibility. And it cost an arm and leg. Sony's library for dedicated PS4 games, like Microsoft's stinks.
If I were Sony or Microsoft, I would cut licensing fees to $1.00/game if they make the game a next gen exlusive, or $2.00/game if the game demonstrates clear advantages on the new platform.
lmao... nice.Why does the PS4 cost less then it does to make?
$399
Why do we now need to pay to access online multiplayer?

Well I guess it comes down to games and gameplay, and the Xbox One to me has great titles that look good enough. Forza 5 to me 'looks' better than any title the PS4 offers. I guess all those developers working on multiplatform titles are wrong.
They're already loosing money on the PS4, putting it at $350 would make them loose even more.
The ps4 has zero great games right now don't care how many they've sold if they don't have any games to enjoy. The wii u hands down gets the most play time with the x1 getting the next most. The ps4 just sits collecting dust or used to play a movie now and then.
I know this will change in a few months but the ps4 had the crappiest game launch release of the 3 consoles. Putting AC4 next to each other on the ps4 and x1 none of my friends could tell the difference while playing so no I don't feel one ounce of regret buying the x1. I do for the ps4 though.

You're going to have to provide a source for that.

You sure you checked after they patched it it's obvious for me.
I've Got to look for it but while playing I'm hard pressed to tell a difference. Last week had a group of buddies over for a bbq and all 12 said they couldn't tell the difference while playing. Titanfall and ghosts were played moreso than killzone and ghosts on the ps4 primarily because everyone preferred the xbox controller over the ps4.
Not saying the x1 is better than the ps4 just saying it isn't the shit box everyone makes it out to be. It is fun has a better library of games Imo and has the better gaming experience as of right now.
