Report: Sony PlayStation 4 to cost £300 in UK, won't be unveiled this week

British daily The Times has reported today that the Sony PlayStation 4 will be cheaper on launch than its predecessor.
The paper says the console will launch for about £300. "Industry sources and leaked internal documents suggest that Sony is considering pricing the new device at about £300, more than £100 cheaper than the starting cost of its predecessor," reads the report.

Sony launched the PS3 in 2006 in the UK for £425.

Additionally, the report says Sony will not unveil the new console at this week's PlayStation meeting in NYC, as widely expected. Instead, the company will wait to see Microsoft's Xbox 8 before launching their own.

When it does launch, however, the PS4 will support 4K displays, include cloud streaming and include a touchscreen controller.

Yes, but it will have about 2gb HD. It all about streaming games, I'm sure of it.
