Sony: You can Buy a PS4 Plus FIFA 14 for Less than Xbox One.

http://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2013/08/22/sony-you-can-buy-a-ps4-plus-fifa-14-at-full-whack-for-less-than-xbox-one-pre-orders-are-breathtakingly-high/

In a bid to entice European gamers to put their money down on an Xbox One and pre-order the system before it launches this November, Microsoft is offering up a free copy of FIFA 14.

Saying how thats a robust promotion to GameSpot when asked about the difference the offer could make at Christmas, Fergal Gara, VP & Managing Director at SCE UK and Ireland, turned the tables and talked about the PlayStation 4s success so far:

We are not seeking to accelerate our pre-orders any further, to be honest. [PS4 pre-orders] are breathtakingly high as they are right now. We do not have a pre-order problem. We will remain focused on value, and theres lots we can do around launch to make gamers feel looked after in a PS4 world.

Getting back on point, Gara echoed DRs thoughts on how you can buy a PS4 plus FIFA 14 at full whack for less, as I would understand it, than a free FIFA 14 with an Xbox One. We will continue to focus on great value for the gamer. Theres loads of instances on how thats real today, whether that be the price of the PS4, or the fantastic content proposition that goes with PlayStation Plus.

That PS4 world Gara mentioned above will begin on November 15th in the US and Canada before expanding to many other countries, including the UK, on November 29th. While hes already discussed the UK representing a large portion of PS4 pre-orders already, Fergal continued that thought with GI.Biz, adding how were talking unprecedented levels of pre-orders that we havent seen in 20 years in this business.

Addressing Andrew Houses remarks about Microsoft during the gamescom Press Conference, Gara said, Well, its a competitive market you know. Were all competitive animals. We all come to work to do the best job we can by our gamers, but there is a part of that job that is about winning versus the competition. Its nice to feel youre ahead, its nice to feel that weve got a lot going for us, and of course Andy chose to put bit of a dig in there. Alls fair in love and war!

Was your breath taken away when you learned that the PS4 was already over a million pre-orders? Let us know in the comments below.

More facts from Sony at 7.

Still, TLHBO!

Reminds me when Microsoft said that you could buy a 360 and a Wii for the price of the PS3.

I wish I wanted FIFA 14

Lmao, MS is done.

Sony, telling it how it is.

Not even Microsofts LIMITED preoreder bonus can save them from total destruction :cool:

Ye, this is pretty obvious to anyone with a brain.

You could probably get fifa and another game as well (or at least a couple psn/indie ones) for cheaper than xbone fifa bundle

This is would have been a big deal for Europe, but considering most of Europe isn't getting an X1 till next year, it kind of invalidates the whole discussion. What this REALLY is about isn't to entice preorders in the area, but rather to keep people from cancelling them or jumping ship as a result of the delay in their territories. Its as simple as that.

Was this something gamers needed to be told?

The SONY fanboys will continue in denial as long as it takes with whatever response they can get. LOL.  I played PS3 for a total of 20 hours before I got bored of playing by myself and went back to Microsoft.  100 more dollars is worth it to have friends to play with,... and have voice controles, and be able to controle everything from my windows phone while im at work,... and to havce it connected with my cable.... oh yea and the part where it revamps my entire living room and entertainment experience- OH yea and all the exclusives.  Oh yea and one more thing, an operating system and menu screen that isn't for kindergardeners.  LMFAO.  Have fun playing killzone alone guys because FiFA and the PS4 cost 20 bucks less HAHA
