The Sony PlayStation 4

The highly anticipated Sony PlayStation 4 is here, and it’s $100 cheaper than its biggest rival, the Microsoft Xbox One.  The PS4 will be available this holiday season; you can pre-order it now at amazon.com for $399.  According to amazon, the Sony PS4 will be released on December 31, 2013.

  1. Sony dropped the hammer at E3. How did that Jack Tretton hold a straight face through all of that while knowing he was about to give MS the finger?
