*Also we don't want to possibly affect PS4 sales with enthusiasts until reveal.We want to ensure we have a full range of the best experiences on the new system that we can showcase in their entirety
Who else would it be targeting expect from that audience?"...will target hardcore gamers..."
Not like this, Sony.
A typical Sony strategy is to let MS announce these types of disruptive things first and then see which way the wind blows. Depending on the reaction they can tailor their strategy and message to make themselves look better or at least make MS look worse. They've done this with great effectiveness in the past.

Very likely, and that one has a release date. Gots to make people buy into it.They likely want PSVR to have a lot of spotlight at E3 as well

Legit rumor - http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1202462was that ever a legit rumor or just speculation?
PS4K will sell like hotcakes
Well I do know that regardless of what hardware they show it on, it will run better on Neo based on the rumors of every game having a base/neo mode.
And there is literally no point in arguing anymore in this thread.
By starting over do you mean backwards compatibility? If so, then they can already implement that with the current release cycle we have for consoles.It's a great business model, having to start over and wait too long for better products is silly imo. This is the way to go in the future. This gives people more options while maintaining what they have their is no downside.
How is it a mistake? This won;t have any effect on ps4, all MS will be doing to hurting x1 sales.
people think theyll bump the specs because its not at e3 ? lol
]Scoprio likely came first and then the rumblings came back to Sony.[/B] Plus, 4K is starting to be a thing Unlike 3D Blu Ray, 4K discs have a extra layer of encoding which PS4/ONE can't play at the moment and likely, both companies have to adapt as the 4K movement sweeps.
PS4 was announced first and was very well received, MS made themself look bad, This is revisionist history.
Where are you getting this from? Sony mentioned this as far back as 2015, these things are planned well in advance, and rumour is neo is launchig first.
Yeah, it's just embarrassing how you become an outcast for even speculating that Sony might be doing something sub-optimal on Gaf.
So rather than tell me what your argument is so we can discuss after telling me repeatedly "that's not my argument" you are just saying there's no point arguing. The only reason there's no point arguing is when you never explain the actual argument to begin with.
I've been very clear and direct in my response to each argument you seemed to be putting forth and yet, after informing me every time that it's not really your argument, rather than tell me your actual arguement you're going to act as if I'm somehow being unreasonable when Im the only one apparently arguing my point. Ok dude.
Why is it so hard to believe that this is not the case?
Legit question. Please enlighten me/
Man, this guy again. He says revealing the existence of scorpio will hurt ms sales but revealing PS4 in interview doesn't hurt PS sales??????
lolCompanies don't work like that.
They do what is best for them. Not react to the competition.
PS4K will sell like hotcakes and it will also boost 4K TV sales for Sony. As people will finally have a reason to do this.
Not because it's not at E3 but yeah they could be bumping specs. Specs change from development kits to final box on almost every hardware ever
But I wanted to buy the Neo this year!
Not sure why you're so butthurt and desperate for an argument. Actually kind of strange that you're begging me to argue with you haha

They might be banking on the hardcore + 4k adopters being enough to generate profit off it. Could be part of a larger plan as a stepping stone towards future hardware or television adoption as well and won't need to make bank. Their strategy at the moment is unclear.
I'm sad that you don't see how delusional this is. Please go back and reevaluate your own posts to see why people have been incited by them. I guarantee it's not because you speculated "Sony might be doing something sub-optimal." It is not your point of view that is chafing with the rest of this thread, it's your tone.
This is a difficult time for Juniors on GAF because there are so many more bans than any other season and bans, obviously, are a much more serious consequence for Junior Members. So it's sometimes wise to lay a little low and be less argumentative than you'd like to be, especially during this time of year when tempers flare.
Spend more time here and you'll realize GAF is a great place--and a lot less single-minded than you seem to think it is.
I think you should take a break from this thread. You are entirely too upset to participate in this topic.
Maybe they will bump clock speed but nothing major in my opinion.
Have Sony shot themselves in the foot by confirming the existence of Neo? Like why would you buy a PS4 when you can get the PS4 Neo masterace version later?
well Sony literally unveiled the actual physical design of the PS4 at E3 2013 but that's not quite the sameWho even does hardware reveals at E3 anyway?
When was the last one? Wii U in 2011?
So... sales are delayed for the next 3 months. I'm not sure why that would matter.Have Sony shot themselves in the foot by confirming the existence of Neo? Like why would you buy a PS4 when you can get the PS4 Neo masterace version later?

No-show at E3 does not mean Neo will not launch this year.
Since its announcement will have a impact on PS4 sales, it would be smart to announce Neo mere weeks before it enter sales [like Apple does regularly].
I'm wondering how well the Neo will do - I'm not terribly worried about the OG PS4. Outside of the hardcore I can't see it flying off the shelf, but I can only speculate. It seems Sony's gauged that focusing on the Neo right now won't net them very good reception, so they're keeping it as more of a footnote until closer to release and hoping the reception will be better then.
Again; the base design remained the same. They were taking advantage of a very late game density increase in memory chips from their provider. They didn't redesign the console with new hardware last minute.Never know they doubled the PS4 RAM at the last second and even caught developers off guard with it.
People shouldn't just assume the spec list we have now is accurate for a launch box.
Price conscious people? Which there are a lot of people stillHave Sony shot themselves in the foot by confirming the existence of Neo? Like why would you buy a PS4 when you can get the PS4 Neo masterace version later?
"This is a difficult time for juniors"- LOL
If you think posting or what people post of gaf matters at all to me then...
If your ability to post on an internet forum matters to you I'd suggest finding another hobby...
