“Sony, which has lost money on televisions over the past eight years, wants to jump-start results with the mobile-defying PlayStation 4.”
Article 1
Awesome games and systems have been no problem for people but prices have. The PS3 launched at $500-$600 and Sony wants to make the gaming system more appealing for its consumers, so the big question on the mind of games everywhere is, “How much will the damn thing cost?”
Article 2
With the release of the PS4 approaching aside from the pricing and what games will be available for the console people want to know will they be able to play used games on it.
Because used games can be a bugbear for many game developers it has been rumored that for the first time users will be unable to play used games on their brand new PS4s, seems a tad unjust if you ask me.
Article 3
