Playstation 4 består av billigare hårdvara än sin föregångare, eftersom Sony är oroliga för att färre personer kommer att ansluta sig till nästa konsolgeneration. Detta menar EA-bossen Ben Cousins, som talat med Games Industry.
"It was interesting to see PS4 clearly go for what looks like cheaper hardware than last time around, so maybe that's a kind of defensive move against their expectation that they're not going to have the same install base, or maybe they just want to hit profitability quicker because of Sony's less stable financial state at the moment."
Cousins menar att surfplattor och dylikt kommer att ta över och att det är bara de riktiga spelfansen som kommer att köpa de nya konsolerna.
"...most of the people I talk to and whose work I read are kind of in agreement... this time around console install bases will be smaller. And probably will be focused more on that core audience. It's certainly not going to be kids and casual gamers buying consoles any more I don't think, they're going to be all on mobile."
