IM TALKIN A MEGASYSTEM THAT PLAYED XBOX PC PS3,2 and 1, videotapes,dvds bluray AND especially SEGA, nintendo 64, snes
THAT would be worth $1000 and then some
I think a price tag of $1,000 will outprice some of their target market. As the world goes through a financial crisis I think any new console will need to be cost effective for the average family. You can find the latest speculation surrounding the PS4 at the PS4 Forums.
the regular price of an xbox 360 or a ps3 is around 199$ to 299$ dollars but the ps4 will be awesome but for the amount of money of 1000 grand would be way to much because the economy is so bad right now that even buying an xbox or a ps3 is hard 1000 dollars would be way to much for a game console that wont even have games when you get it it may have a few demos on some games but 1000 dollars is way to much so no
Oka I love Sony and all but no, they'd have to really dig deep and produce to get a grand from me for just one product, I mean no one here has even mentioned the games, let's think, you save and save your grand and buy this ps4 and then ur sitting there playing nothing. Just sitting cause you can't take it on the go like a lap top. Oh, but you paid the price of one. Absolutly BOGUS
Today a grand is to much for a console. But with the way the goverment is pulling money out of its backside in a few years in may not be that much. Also none of us knows what it's really going to be. Oh what I know right now I have to say no.
i mean if ppl make more $ in thr near future sure. but da way da economy is now dats way too much. $400-$600 sound good to me if da ps4 is go be as great as it sounds or shud be
Im mean seriously guys, why wouldn't you pay that much? Your talking about a touch screen embedded panel! On the system itself and the controller. If its too much, stick with the PS3. But I will be playing that PS4 without a doubt.
even if its touchscreen even the best games they have to day dont price range to that price i mean you can by a whole computer with 1000 dollars seriously!!!!!!!
Being a PC gamer myself, the ps4 better be pretty damn good or else i could spend that thousand upgrading my PC. $600 was steep for the PS3 but i couldn't resist the Blu-ray and Resistance:Fall of Man. I can buy almost three GPUs with $1000 which would outperform any console no matter what. If a PS4 had multiple GPUs, HDDs and more than a a beastly Quadcore, i might be willing to drop the money for it. Also PCs are starting to use 6 core CPUs and they're working on 8 and 16.
I'm tired of giving my money to Bill Gates; he's found a way to double charge the consumer at every level of the game. USB adaptors, live memberships, bonus points and features...I'm looking forward to the new PS4 but if Sony decides to pull a (let's rip off little kids and their parents and cheat the consumers while we're at it) by charging $1, ooo. for a system...Nintendo sounds like a winner. You can't build a system that would be worth it, unless it came with a 23" monitor, video card and doubled as a PC...
I have one of each system out there starting with atri to the ps3. The playstation if my all time favorite system on the market. If the new playstation is going to cost a $1,000 they would have had to put a lot of money into it them selves. Playstation needs to make there money just like the rest of the world. Playstation spent a lot on the ps3 and they didn't start seeing a profit for a while and the ps3 was far from a disappointment. As far as my opinion goes, if a company such as playstation can take the risks they take in on how much money they spend on making there systems just to make the customers happy before they are worried about there profits. That is a company that puts the customer first. So if playstation does decide to charge $1000 they have a good reason. Besides when ps3 first came out people were buying them up for $700 then turning around then reselling them for a $1,000 to $1,500 on the internet when they got hard to get and people were paying those prices, so what,s the difference if playstation charges the $1000. At least with the profits playstation make can and would go tords a bigger and better system the next time a round.
$1000 is crazy, i don't care how high tec it is u can't charge $1000 for a system, i had had trouble raising up the money to get a PS3, that took me 4-5 months with graduation money, berry picking money and allowance plus i still had to get mine used, if sony is gonna charge money like that, i'm saying f#*$ it, and it better have trophy support and all the other good stuff from the PS3, internet better be free and online should rock, i want the best!!!!!!
it could be quite possible. when the ps3 was released, it cost sony over $750 for each unit and it wasn't until summer 2009 that they began to turn a profit. this is where we start to get powered down systems over time and eventually the Slim. So $1000 for a ps4 isn't outside the realm of possibilities
$499 or $599 or maybe even $699 because $1000 is too crazy I'm pretty sure SONY wouldn't do that to their customers well I guess they might since the PS3 costed them money instead of making them money but who cares about that its all about the costumers if people don't like the price they won't buy it and people who are crazy enough to buy it are either dumb and like being in debt or their just plain rich. Also the PS4 better have Trophy support as well as Avatar support from the PS3 syncing from PS3 to a PS4 would be a good idea and also I think a UMD side slot would be awesome as well playing PSP games on the big screen or better yet an actual PSP2 not a PSP Go which was an epic fail by the way no UMD's and only downloads thats bogus. (And maybe the next-gen handheld from SONY might also have Trophy support as well.) Well anyways if you like playing online add me on PSN: DarkSuperior or on XBL: DarkSuperior (Yes I made the same name just for convience don't judge me.)
They are not saying that the Playstation 4 would cost $1000, they are just asking a question to find a general consensus. Therefore this is not real but if not fake either.
Well i say the Price is one of the rip off thing i ever saw in my gaming life! Buying a system for $1000 is just a rip. I rather just w8 till its lower. But if its $1000 because of the cool features i might say it was a good price. But my estimate is that not a lot of poepel will buy a ps4 because not a lot of peopel can adford a system for $1000. I allso say if the games were $100 i will not do that at all!! Mostly for peopel who like gameing i say w8 till the price is lower. Also before u buy 1 u should c if u realy want to spend $1000 on a system that might make u bored or it will make u happy till a new version comes out. My conclosion is if u buy it at $1000 u need to think if u will like it or not. If u try to return it (at gamestop or outher game stores who take use stuff) they might not give $1000. They might give $500 or less. So think before u buy 1. And i am happy that some people r w8ing till the release. and outhers when it is relase for the price to lower like the ps3. I just hopes this Ps4 will be better then the all Ps.
you guys are being idiots, the f*cking ps3 is out now thats what its all about, the ps4 is way off why are you talking about potential prices and what franchises you want on it when its still in concept, while the ps3 is flourishing at the moment?
you really think they haven't already begun developing it yet? i have a friend that is an independent storyboard artists for games developers and microsoft is working on the next xbox already. it's about 10 years between gaming systems, so 2015 as a date for both ps4 and xbox may happen
Omfg, the average between gaming systems is 6 to 7 years. but it's true that microsoft is already working on their next version of the Xbox, I recently heard that they'll be giving out screenshots in a few months, as do sony.
It's not like we don't love the PS3, we will continue to have PS3 coverage such as game reviews and news, as well as PS4 news and rumors. Most of us can admit though that the PS3 hasn't had the success most envisioned it would, and hasn't completely lived up to expectations. We'd like to see the PS4 propel Sony back to the top of the gaming heap with an undeniably outstanding game system that avoids some of the pitfalls they encountered this generation, and we're sure they can.
Ok but, look who is talking, you decide to visit a PS4 site and then you complain about it, lol. PS4 will be the shiznit and then some, so don't let your panties ride your *ss too much. Let us have our PS4 wet dreams.
I appreciate the cost of new technology, truly I do. Unfortunately, I have more than one person in the house that is a hardcore gamer. As it is we have 2 PS3, 1 PS2 an original PlayStation One and a PSP and several other consoles. We are loyal followers of the Sony gaming consoles. At a $1000.00 a pop it would limit us greatly since I was able to get 2 PS3 for less than that price.
Possibly leveraging users personal networks and resources can offset some costs. For example, instead of a built-in hard drive, offer the ability for game saves to be stored on a network media server. They could pick up a terabyte drive off their favorite geek supply site and hold their game saves on a localized drive that can be hit from any PS4 console in the house.
Our future is in wireless and portable...use it to everyone’s advantage. ;-)
Our local game store (GameStop and others) allow people to trade in games and consoles towards the purchase of a new console or other games. Just a fun fact...(learned the hard way)...save everything you got in the original box. This includes controllers, battery closure doors, cables... everything. They have to be able to resell your system in it's original condition. If you are missing even the smallest thing they may deny the trade-in.
I said yes, but I guess it would depend on whether I feel the power of the system justifies the price, and what games are available. There's no way I'd pay $1,000 for the promise of great games in the future, they're going to have to be out already. I am looking forward to it, and I hope the PS4 is a system that forces me to buy it because of its greatness, whether it's $1,000, or more.
not only will i buy one for $1000, I will buy 2. That's right I will pay someone 50 bux to wait in line with me and use cash to buy a second one, while i put mine on my card. Then when I sell it on Ebay later that night for over 2000 I will have paid nothing!
Comments
It would have to be soooo bad
It would have to be soooo bad ass. so crazy good like a hooker jumps out and S***s and F***s me.lol.
NO Way
i would probably only pay $1000 if it had the characters pop out of the system and have me (fight, etc.) in my own home
Or if it was encased in Gold
thats funny but true
thats funny but true
OR IF IT PLAYED EVERYTHING KNOWN TO MAN

ps4 game experience
the regular price of an xbox 360 or a ps3 is around 199$ to 299$ dollars but the ps4 will be awesome but for the amount of money of 1000 grand would be way to much because the economy is so bad right now that even buying an xbox or a ps3 is hard 1000 dollars would be way to much for a game console that wont even have games when you get it it may have a few demos on some games but 1000 dollars is way to much so no
A grand???
Oka I love Sony and all but no, they'd have to really dig deep and produce to get a grand from me for just one product, I mean no one here has even mentioned the games, let's think, you save and save your grand and buy this ps4 and then ur sitting there playing nothing. Just sitting cause you can't take it on the go like a lap top. Oh, but you paid the price of one. Absolutly BOGUS
PANICPOP
i have my own business and i would pay $1000 and buy 8 of them. (for all my coworkers)
i sell shirts at www.panicpop.com
Based on today no.
Today a grand is to much for a console. But with the way the goverment is pulling money out of its backside in a few years in may not be that much. Also none of us knows what it's really going to be. Oh what I know right now I have to say no.
it kinda depends ...
i mean if ppl make more $ in thr near future sure. but da way da economy is now dats way too much. $400-$600 sound good to me if da ps4 is go be as great as it sounds or shud be
ps4
you should do it for £600-£800 but a £1000 no haderly no one will bye it that much
SERIOUSLY!!!
Im mean seriously guys, why wouldn't you pay that much? Your talking about a touch screen embedded panel! On the system itself and the controller. If its too much, stick with the PS3. But I will be playing that PS4 without a doubt.
to much money
even if its touchscreen even the best games they have to day dont price range to that price i mean you can by a whole computer with 1000 dollars seriously!!!!!!!
Too Much Money
Being a PC gamer myself, the ps4 better be pretty damn good or else i could spend that thousand upgrading my PC. $600 was steep for the PS3 but i couldn't resist the Blu-ray and Resistance:Fall of Man. I can buy almost three GPUs with $1000 which would outperform any console no matter what. If a PS4 had multiple GPUs, HDDs and more than a a beastly Quadcore, i might be willing to drop the money for it. Also PCs are starting to use 6 core CPUs and they're working on 8 and 16.
too much
$1000 bucks WOW! i can build an awesome pc for that much.
really? i mean if really done
really? i mean if really done things that NO other conusel could do.
$1000.00 System
I'm tired of giving my money to Bill Gates; he's found a way to double charge the consumer at every level of the game. USB adaptors, live memberships, bonus points and features...I'm looking forward to the new PS4 but if Sony decides to pull a (let's rip off little kids and their parents and cheat the consumers while we're at it) by charging $1, ooo. for a system...Nintendo sounds like a winner. You can't build a system that would be worth it, unless it came with a 23" monitor, video card and doubled as a PC...
Never
I think this is a joke.how can one pay 1000$ for a system?
No Problem On The Price HERE
I have one of each system out there starting with atri to the ps3. The playstation if my all time favorite system on the market. If the new playstation is going to cost a $1,000 they would have had to put a lot of money into it them selves. Playstation needs to make there money just like the rest of the world.

At least with the profits playstation make can and would go tords a bigger and better system the next time a round.
too expnsive
i think it should be 500 or 600 if it had a lot of new features but if its super similar to the ps3 then only 400 i couldnt afford it if it was 1000
Agreed
I totally agree with what's being said here
$1000 are u MAD!
$1000 is crazy, i don't care how high tec it is u can't charge $1000 for a system, i had had trouble raising up the money to get a PS3, that took me 4-5 months with graduation money, berry picking money and allowance plus i still had to get mine used, if sony is gonna charge money like that, i'm saying f#*$ it, and it better have trophy support and all the other good stuff from the PS3, internet better be free and online should rock, i want the best!!!!!!

ps4 cost
id say like 450 or 500 cuse the ps3 was like 400
Not a prediction!
They are not saying that the Playstation 4 would cost $1000, they are just asking a question to find a general consensus. Therefore this is not real but if not fake either.
Thats a ridiculous price.
At that price I rather get 2 5870's and have cash to spare.
The price
Well i say the Price is one of the rip off thing i ever saw in my gaming life! Buying a system for $1000 is just a rip. I rather just w8 till its lower.

money
no one would buy it if it was worth $1000 i certainly wouldnt id just buy the xbox 720 instead
tradein
i think we should be able to trade in our ps3 and games for the ps4
Try your local game store
Our local game store (GameStop and others) allow people to trade in games and consoles towards the purchase of a new console or other games.

Wait until it drops!
No way! I'll wait until it's at $400.
Price
I said yes, but I guess it would depend on whether I feel the power of the system justifies the price, and what games are available.

Wouldn't you also need a 3D TV?
