Hey, Sony has to make up that deficit from Concord somehow.

Well they’re trying to make back the millions they lost in concord.

Don’t pretend like pc part market is any less fucked pricing-wise.

Am I the only one who thinks it might have been more profitable long term to either spend the extra $2 per unit for the stand or just *depict it horizontally* to avoid that *vertical stand sold separately line?
It feels like that little addition turns sticker shock into an actual farce. It’s a huge optics failure that underlines how the unit costs more and does less.

Regardless of the price discussion; Sony is always “cooked” in every generation, but then always ends up getting loaded.
Don’t worry, ps5 pro will be widely bought and you know it. We all know it.
(And by this I mean it will sell out in the first few days).
And like other user said, let’s be honest, between you and me Master Race Masters… if this PS5 Pro is overpriced, PC prices are even more overpriced.

820 dollars ?

They are reaching PC prices soon

Anyone know how this compares to the current X? being the X was like 10-20% more machine vs ps5 gen1 i assume this is a 50% jump ?

Main thing how pssr competes with dlss , xess,fsr .
If it is same as fsr and not as xess or dlss , then waiting for ps6 will be better choice than getting a pro .
Gta 6 will surely launch with new console so just save money and wait till digital foundry analysis of pssr vs other ai upscaller.

No, Sony is not cooked, unfortunately.

me with a PS5: wait you need something to put them up?

A crazy price for sure. But you know what’s even more crazy? The PS3’s $600 price tag at launch, is still more than this with inflation conversion, I still can’t believe that didn’t crash and burn harder than it did

And they will make record profits. Corporations are pushing the prices to see how high they can go and so far, only a few people seem to be backing off. They will do some “sale” to appease the rest later and the cycle continues. It’s sad to see but most people don’t have limits on what they are willing to pay and companies have worked hard to get there.

Don’t fool yourself, they are gonna sell like hot cakes.

They’re charging that much just for AI upscaling. I get that the GPU market is just as bad, but charging so much when they could just allow for FSR in their games is absurd.

In Europe it’s around ≈880 dollars 💀💀

To build your console with vertical as the optimal cooling position and still sell the vertical stand separately: 📈STONKS

it’s their a must own game? PS4 was legendary. PS5?

If they priced this properly I was down to get one for Death Stranding 2. Now I’m just gonna wait for the PC release.
Sony as a company manages to keep existing despite constantly having terrible business decisions.
SuspiciousCantelope
They should have had concord be included with the console

$600-$650 with a disc drive and stand is fair. Greedy

Surely the pc vs console war will stop now
£700 for a console is insanity.
