Sony Is Serious About Winning Next Gen With PS4, Ni no Kuni Developer Says

Sony’s dead-focused on winning the eighth generation of gaming with PS4, Level-5 president Akihiro Hino told Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu.

Hino pointed towards the console’s price as the biggest indication of this, adding that Microsoft must do something to counteract the electronic giant’s aggressive moves.

Said Hino:

The number-one surprise for me was the PS4′s price. I think anyone can look at that and think ‘This is cheap!’ Putting cutting-edge PC specs into a game machine that costs just a few hundred dollars really brings across how serious SCE is about this generation.”

I think the Xbox One is pretty cheap considering what you get with it as well, but with this PS4 price point, they’ll have to do something to oppose that.

I can’t wait for the next generation to really spread out into households.

PS4 and Xbox One will launch during the holiday season of 2013.
