I was thoroughly impressed by what Sony showed. That 399 price point is massive for them, and it seems like they pleased the gaming hardcore with the announcement regarding used games and always online. Although I'm still interested to hear the full details on what their plans on DRM are. As far as games are concerned those indie games looked fantastic, but since they are self-published they will probably come to PC as well. The "big games" looked great, but I'm not really interested in any one of them. And PS+ continues to be a fantastic deal.
All and all I think that Sony had a fantastic show, even though I was hoping for some more exclusive titles on their end. At this point I've pre-ordered both systems, but I will still likely not be picking up the PS4 at launch unless some of the exclusive titles like Knack or Injustice peak my interest. I'm sure that Sony will produce those exclusives at some point thoughthis will become a two-console household.
$550 will be the RRP in Australia, apparently. I'm sure everyone in Australia is utterly stunned by this.
Why so stunned? I lived in New Zealand during the 360 launch and I remember it launching at something similarly ridiculous. On the bright side, the country was fuckin' gorgeous in every way, unfortunately Video Games were hell of expensive. Living on isolated islands has it's pros and cons, I guess.
What are you people complaining about?
That's the reality I live in... fucking import fees... no pre order for me then, I'm better off just waiting till it's released, get it on ebay and hope for the best...
