New Xbox Reveal - May 21st!
#74
Personally I'm not really interested in any of the new gen consoles but I really love trying to analyse the marketing and predict performance of sales.

I predict that the PS4 is going to be more prepared to cater for its core audience on launch this cycle after the PS3 disaster. Much moreso than the new XBox.

I also predict the XBox One will be significantly cheaper than the PS4 at release which is how it will actually be competitive for Christmas sales, but it is too early to say which would do better. I would be more confident in making a prediction like that when I know the hard numerical facts.

I believe the PS4 will do better in Europe, Asia and Oceania regardless unless the price difference is truly outrageous. Pretty much none of the TV functions would even work for anywhere outside the US.

Something else I am speculating is that the PS4 will have a subscription service for features such as exclusive member content/discounts (like PS+) and full utilization of the new services. There is just no way Sony could afford the server maintenance without some new way to pay for it. To me, the very fact that they did not mention that all of their services would be free when they announced them is evidence that they have plans to charge for them. That said, I think we will still enjoy free access to general online gaming and matchmaking which the XBox One will almost certainly not offer.
