Yeah that's a pretty good analysis...I would love for MS to just be completely platform agnostic and they work something out where I can play Xbox stuff through a PS, right now it's still a little too close for me to be in all ecosystems.
Nintendo makes (in-house) the best reasons for you to own their hardware and try and innovate every hardware refresh in controller input/gameplay
Sony is the home of 3rd party, something for everyone, and also makes a compelling amount of content (in-house) to distinguish their hardware
Xbox is also the home of 3rd party, but is more platform agnostic and you can play with their box or on PC, lot of services
A million times better than PS2/Gamecube/Xbox gen, but I would still like a little more effort to offer something unique with each platform, mainly team Xbox.
Well said.
Great point, they spent the whole gen fire saling the xbox one under-priced and it didn't change anything.
yeah I agree to me i think having nintendo/PS works for most people, but Xbox could slide in greatly for the biggest enthusiasts.
Sony is smart in letting the games do the talking.
Lean on their games eh? I don't see a problem there.
It's kinda funny how many people in the gaming press and on era have thought these consoles are going to be way more expensive than they're going to be. Even back in May I thought that it was obvious we'd be getting XSX @ $500 and PS5 @$450-500. The BoM don't lie :3
Obviously the two sku situation makes things a little different, but I'd say it's a done deal for PS5 @ $500.

Yeah I'll believe it when I see it :D still betting on a way higher price point than that for PS5.
Not like we told that 1000 times, peopel just refuse to listed.
Yeah I expected $500 as well but was holding out hope for $400, but that seemed like a long shot. DE may be $400 though just for the fact they will make that money back on the PS Store fairly quickly.
Imagine this...
SSD modified PS4 Pro @300 w/ 3 exclusives bundled
PS5 Digital @$400
PS5 Disc @ $500
I think this $300 Xbox is great to break into many households though and get some gamepass subscriptions up. My main issue is the 512 SSD size for an ALL digital version. Leaves like ~400GB usable for games...and I don't expect the cross-gen games to be getting any smaller in size, so that will fill quick. Is it confirmed whether it has the upgradable SSD chips?
If PS5 Digital is $400, may be a great competitor to the Series S. For another $100 you get a near 50% increase in storage, plus parity with the full PS5 sans disc.

Yeah, I really don't get it, especially from people in the press who are paid to know better. At $600, Sony would be making a decent profit on each system sold. When have consoles (other than Nintendo) ever done this at launch? IIRC, Sony has always sold their hardware at a loss to start the gen.
Given what we've already known for ages about the hardware and BOM, I don't see how anything outside the $400-$500 range would make sense.
CPU would still be the bottle neck with that upgraded Pro. It's better to just concentrate on full PS5 experience.
?? it's no doubt a great controller to help people, but it's not innovating game design, or creating new ways to play really. it's simply broadening who can experience gaming. A great product, but more innovating than 90% of everything on the market is a huge stretch.
Was the price not high over there because they had to bring them in ?
I remember it was suppose to be cheaper once they started making them in Brazil .
Honestly, the moment i saw that IGN report ps side doenst even know the games coming to ps is the moment i stop listing to them. You get better information on Twitter and Youtube that you get from news outlets.
Yea I'd love to know the reason why some expect the PS5 to be way higher than $500. Especially if the Series X is that price. I mean PS5 technically IS the weaker console, but some of yall expect it to be $100 more?
Not to mention if the PS5 is $600 all that talk from Jim Ryan about fast adoption rate goes out the window lol.

That's pretty hyperbolic to me too lol. It's great for accessibility but that's about it, the biggest gains for accessibility comes from devs actually making the software accessible too. Like TLOU2.
Yeah, Spidey, Horizon, God of War and whatever ND does next will be big sellers for PS5. Gran Turismo might be big again too with a huge campaign again and more casual appeal. Nintendo is first party king, but they do miss out on some big 3rd party stuff, so it kinda balances out having Switch/PS4. I think that combo will work really well again next gen.
Digital foundry expected it at 600 box and Era is a big audience of them.
The BOM at around 450$ mean loss if you sell at 499, including everything you have to add.
Haha. I hope it's $650. That would be hilarious. Talk about reversal of roles from last gen.
The BoM in the XSX is likely higher, so that one may be more expensive. MS has the leeway to do that, given they have a cheaper model. BoM was around $430 I think for the disk based version of PS5.
I thought he'd be making up FUD for the Series S or Series X since the narrative is heavily favoured in their direction today.
That tells me absolutely nothing lol. Like thats such a wildly broad guess.
Yeah. Sony has spent several gens refining those studios. MS may have fixed some things but unlike even last time this time so far for early gen they have practically no exclusive system sellers planned for any time soon other than Halo which even got delayed and was already a shadow of its former self in terms of influence.
dust golem has always been here on era lol. I'm sure you have seen his work in and around here
At least post a quote:

Depending on how badly a region gets screwed on exchange rate (and everyone always forgets about VAT), that quote and range doesn't mean much, I'm afraid.
So, now that we know the Series S / X's pricing... where do you think the PS5 is going to land?
The final price, to be seen, what I've heard about the range possibility is not in USD, sometimes Sony prefers the US when it comes to price compared to many other regions and goes lower for it. But it ballparks to around $500-650 when translated, though in my suspicion they won't go for the...

with Series S price and the date out, it's almost obvs that most of the info on that Windows Central leak was true, if that's the case then there is likely a chance that there is an Xbox event soon like next week basically confirming 499$ for XSX and after that its only matter days/weeks before Sony comes out and does the same. it will definitely be sooner rather than later.
It was a joke about dust and dusk...
well, not really funny...
Well, i think a $650 PS5 with RE8 in 1080p/40fps is really dead on arrival, lets hope it isn't true.
Wouldn't have a chance against the $299 1440p/120fps console.
For real. Also unless insiders are being polite I highly doubt they know the price lol. If they did it would have come out a while ago. We only know the Series S price and release because it got leaked in an image lol.
