    According to Nick McCandless sony stated the PS4 will be releasing at the "very conservative" price of $799 for base and $899 for premium model. Now, even for a next gen console $799 seems pretty steep. McCandless didn't provide any sources for his statement. So, it could very well be an inaccurate price tag. Nonetheless, I wonder how many people will be able to justify such a purchase.

    Personally, I know I would have a hard time convincing myself to buy one.

    I just found this: http://www.thegameraccess.com/shows...0-is-announced-nick-s-gaming-view-episode-156
    I cant find many articles on Google news though. It doesnt seem like this news is legit since not many people have caught onto it.

    $399- $499 seems like reasonable prices. I couldn't see myself really paying anything more than that.

    I still think it'll be $499-599, but $799 is just ridiculous in this day!
