The price tag on any item can be the first and sometimes only factor people need when they are making a decision on whether or not to purchase something. This would be another reason as to why the PlayStation 4 was able to get such a great lead over the Xbox One.

The initial price of the Xbox One was $499. So gamers were expected to hand over half a thousand dollars for something they were not entirely sure was a gaming console or an all-entertainment device. It also came with the Kinect, which was what helped contribute to the price tag being so high.

In comparison, the PS4 launched at $399 and the most expensive version of the Wii U launched at $349. Eventually Microsoft would release a Kinect free version of the Xbox One at a cheaper price, but the damage was already done.

By the time the price of the Xbox One came down, Sony were already offering various bundles of the PS4 with a number of games. It was not long after when they started rolling out the PS4 Pro and their superior selection of exclusive games started to shine.
