The problem is the content delivery through cable, and the ability for graphics cards/chips to push out 4K without taking a shit all over frame rates.

By no means am I knocking your decision to get one now... Just sharing my opinion and you know what they say about those....
They say the 2nd gen will be out for the PS4 launch

I waited for the PS3 to work the bugs out and got screwed with the yellow light, so I'm not waiting this time around I'm going all out, only thing I'm gunna check and ask about what's gunna be new in the 2nd gens

It's all good I'm not the guy that gets into a argument for opinions just a point counter point convo here

Doubt you'll see it anytime soon. Sony's already stated the PS4 will not upscale games to 4k resolution, they will max out at 1080.

Give it a couple of years and I think we will see 4k games. It's good to know that both consoles are at least capable of 4k!

Was reading a rumor earlier about a PS4 PSVita bundle priced at $500

Said it would be like a Black Friday deal then go to a normal price, maybe could do with a Vita price drop who knows

But just a rumor nothing confirmed

If that was a launch bundle option I would have bought it. The game streaming remote play is so cool.

I really think Sony is set up to win this gen with stuff like that. They started sending boxes out to the press.

That's the most detailed video I've seen yet, and I agree with you I think Sony is by far ahead of the curve here since the 1st day at the conference

The $500 price tag is too low. Currently the Vita is priced at $250 for a wifi version and $300 for a 3g version. At $500, that will place the price for the Vita at $100. The Vita already is a low profit item and at that price, Sony will be losing money on every bundle sold.

This was leaked back at E3 but no one believed me which has more believable pricing.

Sony lost money before and they always come back with something better, I agree with you that's too low a price but we don't even know if this bundle will even happen never mind a price so we just gotta wait and see

I'm pretty sure it will happen. Sony is pushing the remote play feature too much and requiring all PS4 games to support it not to come out with a bundle. Imo, it's a question of when and how much, not if.

The point is that no one is buying the vita due to the lack of games. If they start bundling it at a loss, it gets in the hands of players and then devs will make games for it. They took HUGE losses on the PS3, and they thankfully won't be taking that on the PS4. Hopefully they'll have some wiggle room when it comes to Vita.
