The cost of the console components, I believe. Some components are even more expensive than last gen, if I recall correctly. Don't remember specifics. I think it's better to expect 600 and be pleasantly surprised if it isn't.
I'm still on the $399 for the DE and $499 for the disc drive but I can see why some people are seeing this. Microsoft is set to release a new Xbox One S SKU at a MSRP of $299, and if they're doing that it sounds quite unlikely the Series S will also be at $299 or even $349 because that doesn't really make a lot of sense. So if we assume that speculation/theorizing is correct that would probably put the Series S at $399, which then also puts the other consoles at a higher price than a lot of people have been speculating.
Reactionary wish of fans and some US/ UK Media resulting from negative news cycle for the competitor.
There is no reason to look at $599, from the "fastest new adoption transition" comments, to the specs, to the bom, to the Sony FY report and forecast.
How else can they make themselves believable if they don't emphasize they were gaming since they cane out of the womb!
Nintendo is such a frustrating company. They make absolutely great games and hardware (most of the time ) but their ui, price of 1st party games, and their absolutely awful online anything it's just frustrating.
Can do when I get to work as no wifi atm and it would kill my data
I think it's psychologically preparing for the worst. While I personally consider 599,- unlikely, there is definitely a risk–all things considered–that it could be that price point. And if you come to terms with the worst case, you can only be positively surprised :)
On the matter, I read or heard somewhere that you need a DS 4 to play BC game on PS5. Is that true?
They're most likely victims of FUD. I'm still very much routed in the $399/$499 camp and there's a lot of decent write ups on this site suggesting why with price will be that way based on Sony financial results leading up to PS5 compared to what was seen on the lead up to PS4.
I just popped into an inflation calc. 400 USD in 2013 is about 450 now which is around where the cost of the PS5 BOM is supposedly. Maybe 500 USD is possible especially considering the chance a core user will sign up for PSN and buy a game and at least one other accessory.
But Im still preparing to hear 599.
If you include that BOM, add the controller, packaging, distribution, in all likelihood the actual price may be closer to $600 than you realize.
Of course, that doesn't mean we'll be paying that price. I suspect both companies are ready to take a loss at launch, just like this gen.
Personally still thinking it will be $499 for PS5 and 399 for PS5 DE.
It's always fun with trailers like these to speculate if we're looking at references of actual upcoming games or just some sort of world and monsters created just for the ad. Hopefully these are indeed references to games.
I don't think such a thing has been confirmed or denied, but if that's true that'd be beyond stupid.
I think the informatiion we got was that DS4 only works on PS4 BC games but not on PS5 games. But I think you'll be able to use DualSense on PS4 BC games.
Been predicting $449/$499 for months now. Nothing anyone says will change my mind till sony say something official lol
399,499. Sony will take the hit on digital and gain in back by software through the store.
I'm kinda in the 449/549 camp, feels reasonable. I don't think 599 will happen again and 399 seem too hopeful.
Disc drives arent very expensive. Hell $50 would be more than what the disc drive costs
90 minutes of pure screentime plus halftime, but no one's going to even google PS5 once lol
It'll be a $100 difference bare minimum. You don't go with a separate SKU for such a minor difference in price. Sure, the disc drive itself doesn't cost much, but it's about what you want out of your customer.
The disc drive, yes. What about the additional licensing fees for blu-ray / power / wiring / cooling / case plastics? ;P
Those things are generally considered promo add ons.
The PS4 estimated bom near launch was about $381, and they were in the red for the first 3 months, at $399.
No reason to think they can't launch at $499 if the bom is around $450 (I think it could be even less than that, as I think the SSD is overinflated due to being a custom unknown factor).
Was considering making a Lttp for this but.. Uncharted 4 is not very good.
Yes it's beautiful, and the animations are polished like crazy, but how is this game rated so highly? Ive just got to Madagascar and so far it has been a series of climbing on obviously coloured ledges and sliding down rocks. The puzzles are ridiculously basic, the combat is just hiding behind waist high obstacles, and overall I am really really shocked by the huge praise.
I mean this game is opm magazines best ps4 game, its 93 on meta critic I believe, am I on my own here?

Yes, I was agreeing with you and just pointing out that it was likely going to be a similar kind of loss-at-sale.
I believe the DRAM was initially a point of contention but the decrease in phone demand this year has allowed them to increase production order.
I think this works really well if Sony can hit it...Digital Edition is very close to launch PS4. Most people will say it's more expensive, but $50 more? That's okay...
I'm with ya, still makes them the most sense to see $499 and DE cheaper, I'm not sure if they'll launch at at $450 for DE though, it could be $429, or even $399. Really depends on how much its costing Sony and how soon it'll be profitable. I don't think PS4 was a loss leader all that long this gen.
Hmmm arent sony exempt from that bluray fee as a member of some group or something? And still think it's not enough for $100 difference.
Either way, only so many weeks to go. $399 would be cool but wouldn't matter to me since I need a disc drive. Just hoping the base model is $499
Yeah, the one aspect of price I'm 100% confident on predicting is a $100 difference between SKUs. Sony wants you to go digital, it's not there just as a friendly option.

What are your issues with the game? If it's too easy adjust the difficulty for a nice challenge. The climbing sections were meant to be more interactive but got cut. Generally people love the story as well. Also, this is the type of stuff people like to do in Uncharted, it's a really fun shootem up, you aren't really supposed to stay behind cover all the time.
Given the tech they are packing, the hype from the brand and the software announced, I see PS5 being super successful at $449/$499. It could work.
so this is the CL final ad spot huh.
The blog post is exciting. Some of the uses for the adaptive triggers sound really good to me. Especially in Ratchet and clank.
