Woe to anyone who decided to buy a PS4 yesterday. There must be someone. The rumors and leaks were true — Sony has dropped the price of its flagship PS4 down to a baseline of $350, bringing it to price parity with Microsoft’s Xbox One and setting it up for one of the bigger holiday seasons of the past few years. In some ways, this is a defensive move: Sony couldn’t keep selling the PS4 at $50 more than the Xbox One forever. Sony has a massive lead over Microsoft right now, and removing that $350 vs $400 moment of decision between the two helps to cement that lead and continue the console’s unencumbered rise. In other ways, it’s just the natural progression of a console’s life: the price falls after two years. One thing is for certain: Xbox One is going to have a rougher time without its price advantage.
