Nasty_Rory Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 the first ones will likely overheat in any case (except for some lucky people)You think so? The way I see it is that Sony has been planning this for 5 years. MS busted a gut to get the 360 out ahead of the competition and the first 1 year of the 360 had an astonishing 50% failure rate. The general consensus this time is that MS is as far as 6 months behind Sony with regards to the Xbone construction compared with the PS4. Now I know that MS has some serious pockets but surely in the rush to make up that 6 months its the Xbone that consumers should have heating concerns about. Sony has pulled its finger out of its arse lately in relation to design and build of electronics and the stuff that they have constructed in the past year or more has been as good as you could possibly expect.

Memnoch Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 You think so? I do, Ps2 had heat issues, PS3 had heat issues. Early production is never easy, and I remember a discussion we had recently where you didn't think Sony could deliver before chrimbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nasty_Rory Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I do, Ps2 had heat issues, PS3 had heat issues. Early production is never easy, and I remember a discussion we had recently where you didn't think Sony could deliver before chrimbo I had 2 original PS - the first one died as a result of an unexpected rapid decent due to the controller lead being tripped over by a stoner at a party. I had 3 PS2. The one failed as a result of a heart attack - it simply stopped working. the power unit gave up and Sony replaced it it was about 4 months old and it was a unit from 6 months after launch. The other 2 are still going perfectly well I have had one PS3, never missed a beat. Though my brother had his 40GB fatty suffer YLOD but it was a unit from maybe 8 months after launch. So in my experience its the consoles that are bought 6/8 months post launch that have failed! And I also recall that discussion and it was that Sony couldn't deliver the PS4 to Europe until after Christmas after they serviced the home market and North America. However Sony have said that Japan will wait until 2014 so that Europe was a priority. So that game has changed my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memnoch Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Hehe I'm just saying I'll wait the 'OMG new console' era (ie those 6-12 months), but either way, early production products are often a pain mate (I say this working for an electronics manufacturer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XxTerminator Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) November hm? Surely it will sell better than the Xbox One, & looks like I'll get Killzone 3 beginning August. Edited June 26, 2013 by XxTerminator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ_Bass Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 It would be awesome if this is true. That would mean that I could get Watch Dogs on PS4 straight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolvie_181 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Hmm......It looks like we could see a early November release for the PS4 If any of this is true,it's a smart move on Sony to release the PS4 in the holiday season. For me,I'm waiting till after launch day to get my PS4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
castlehominid99 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Hopefully it comes out early november/late october. I think they're waiting for the Xbone's release date and they're just gonna do a week earlier like they waited for the xbone's price before announcing there's was 400 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DK_Scuba Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Nov 13th would be perfect, 21 would blow lol. I work 7 days straight out of town then I'm off for 7 days straight so either way its at the beginning of work or time off > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigPete7978 Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Preordered my PS4 at Gamestop a week ago. Can't wait for the release. I hope the November 13th date is true as others have stated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Nov 13... true or not, I will have my Ps4s at launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azaan60 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I'd be extraordinarily surprised to see any sort of significant discount less than a week after launch, even if it is Black Friday. Yeah I bet Sony will stand their ground with the price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
