If Sony follows MS price point with its digital only PS5 I might buy my first PlayStation since the PSX.

Never said that. Just comparing the two consoles for me it isn't even close in terms of quantity of quality exclusives. If he can justify buying a Xbox for exclusives I'm not sure how couldn't justify buying a ps2/3/4/5 for their exclusives considering the substantial drop in price in the older consoles
I'm sorry OP but you're gonna be disappointed lol. Put the $300 or so into some more Series X games.
No way in paying 70€ for digital only games at launch when I can have the same games on physical for 15€ cheaper delivered to my door.
Either digital pricing changes at some point or I'll just keep buying physical

The S is far closer to the Series X than the One X in terms of internals, definitely isn't a "repackaged last gen" console
A question for you.
U know the difference between hardware of ps5 and xss ?
If yes, How do u expect them to be same price ??
Extra $100 would be absolutely best case scenario
The difference will probably be $150-200
How can they follow MS pricing? It's the same PS5 inside except no drive. Completely different to MS direction.
I believe it will be 399 & 499.
Purely for the eco-system lock-in. We'll see next week!
This is great. You really are shocked someone doesn't enjoy Playstation's vast exclusive library. I know I don't...I buy Playstations for a few of their studios. The last exclusive I beat before Spidey was God of War. Nothing since Spiderman.
My Xbox One X doesn't have near the tech inside the XSS...did I do it wrong?
Not sure what your point is here, I'd argue getting a ps4 for God of war and Spiderman is worth it, never mind all the other exclusives
Are you under the impression that the Series S is the same as the Series X, just missing the disk drive? Serious question.
Just thought your reaction to someone enjoying exclusives on Xbox more that Playstation humorous.
It won't happen the Xbox SS is sacrificing storage space and GPU power to get down to that price. Both versions of the PS5 are the same power wise and storage wise with literally the only difference being no disc drive for those who are comfortable going all digital.
I didn't react to him enjoying exclusives on Xbox straw man. I said it's strange that if he buys Xbox for exclusives that since the psx he hasn't bought any PlayStation considering the vast quantity of quality exclusives on PlayStation platforms, with most of the older consoles being v cheap if money was a issue as suggested in the op
$300? Not a chance.
Lol, this is a great point. There are going to be uninformed people who think that Microsoft is charging $300 for its low end console while Sony is charging $450 for its "low end" console.

Everything I've read says in terms of its pure horsepower its on par and maybe slightly less in that department than the One X. Yes, its gets some added benefit from the better SSD for faster loads and some newer hardware feature things, so that helps some things along. But they are mostly similarly speced machines, , its just the One X only plays "One" games (plus earlier generation, but will never play Series X) while the Series S plays "Series X" games (plus all earlier generations).
Honestly you're missing out on so many great ps2, Ps3, and PS4 games id say just get a used ps2, 3 or 4 and enjoy. No need to wait for PS5.
