Maybe era is like this but price to me is definitely most important. If XSX WAS 399 and every PS5 was at least 499 that would be massive
Yup. Absolutely. Even better if there are bundles. Back in the day the whole reason I got a 360 was it was $100 cheaper + came with some games too.Average Joe is going to get the cheapest next gen machine that will play Warzone/Fifa/Madden ( or whatever game is popular).
Yup.Naw, I made my decision awhile ago based on Microsoft talk of easing the onboarding process to next gen.
PS5 first, XSX down the line.

If that was the case, the average Joe would be getting Xbox One S, but they buy the PS4.Average Joe is going to get the cheapest next gen machine that will play Warzone/Fifa/Madden ( or whatever game is popular).
This definitely isn't as clear clear-cut as you think. In almost every European county, mine included, XSX and Xbox are basically nonexistent if you look at the big picture. As digital games, BC and PS+/Live Gold are making it harder and more expensive than ever to switch, most people will not throw away their ties and money spent to a certain ecosystem just to save 100€, because changing from one console to another will probably end up costing just as much.Average Joe is going to get the cheapest next gen machine that will play Warzone/Fifa/Madden ( or whatever game is popular).
Okay, I misinterpreted that comic, then, thanks for the clarification.Sony has been on a roll, and me not purchasing their next console because it might be priced higher would be non-sensical(see comic). Their games are stellar and new IP and sequels to current franchises are far too enticing to miss out on.
But Era clearly doesn't understand how business and the market works. Thinking that average Joe buys the cheaper product is asinine, since they clearly buy Switches and PS4s instead of Xbox One Ss, even if they're more expensive. They don't buy the cheaper product, they buy the most popular and marketed one, price is secondary to this.It absolutely does. I'm gonna go for whichever one is cheaper first. Era isn't indicative of the public on this one though.
You are correct. Early adopters usually set the trends.But Era clearly doesn't understand how business and the market works. Thinking that average Joe buys the cheaper product is asinine, since they clearly buy Switches and PS4s instead of Xbox One Ss, even if they're more expensive. They don't buy the cheaper product, they buy the most popular and marketed one, price is secondary to this.
People that think that cost is the driving factor will probably play those games on their mobile phone or tablet.Average Joe is going to get the cheapest next gen machine that will play Warzone/Fifa/Madden ( or whatever game is popular).
This is the most important thing. Mindshare, word of mouth and just popularity in general is everything. 1X and XB1 digital have already been discontinued where I live, but a couple months ago,But Era clearly doesn't understand how business and the market works.

Amazing how good that machine was. That controller, the exclusives, the blades...then it all fell apart.If Xbox had anything interesting to me, then it would be an eventual option. However, none of its games do anything for me. Playstation brings goods. Always has. It's why I always buy the new PS without fail.
360 was a bright spot, though. It was the only Xbox console I ever owned. Loved it.
Microsoft cultivated the hype around that machine. It seemed like 3rd parties treated the 360 better. It got the good deals. It got great games and support. Then the Kinect happened and complacency set in. Downhill from there.Amazing how good that machine was. That controller, the exclusives, the blades...then it all fell apart.
Even playing sports titles felt smoother on the 360, not sure if placebo.
