Playstation 4 and Xbox 720 coming 2013 with US$400 price tag

The next generation PlayStation 4 and Xbox 720 consoles will land in October 2013 and November 2013 respectively, with price tags between US$250-$400. That's according to analyst Colin Sebastian of Baird Equity Research, who reckons that the next-gen consoles will be mostly built from off-the-shelf PC hardware with integrated voice and motion controls.
That's good news for Sony fans who had to fork out more than US$500 for a PlayStation 3 at launch – and will make it easier for PS4 developers, who won't have to get to grips with brand new architectures like the PlayStation 3's Cell processor.
With E3 2013 drawing ever closer, we can't wait to see what Sony and Microsoft have up their well-protected sleeves. Kinect 2.0 and Illumiroom, anyone? Bring it on.

Find it hard to believe that since the PS3 cell processor Sony haven't been developing anything for the PS4. Doesn't make sense just to use an intel chip, and how would that make it easier for PS4 developers? Surely a cell mark 2 with similar architecture is the way forward.
But what do I know, I'm not working 15 hours per week at home making $5659 in 3 months!!!!! Shame on anybody who ever even thinks of going to those websites!
Stuff, again I'l say it. I love your magazine, but your website stinks.
