That Blu-Ray drive for €100/$100 more better be something truly amazing...

 

[BlakeofT]

Anyone know when pre orders go up?

 

[CouzinD]

I just don’t understand how anyone thought it would be more than the Xbox. I really don’t.

 

[ethomaz]

you just had to be first with this shit ass thread

Thanks man... feels awesome.

 

[McHuj]

I said Wow.

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

Muppets who actually thought $600 lol

 

[Romulus]

That price is aggressive as if Xbox is real competition. Even at $100 more, Sony would have easily won. Now, its not even going to be close.

 

[Chittagong]

It’s hard to articulate how fucking nuts PS5 at launch for £359 is. Absolutely insane really.

 

[IbelieveInGenerations]

$399. Good call.

Nice. Love competition. I bet that really hurt Sony to do.

Yeah

I thank MS for announcing the price.

No matter How better the scenarios is for Sony, they no longer want to the risk of being arrogant Sony with 599 price.

 

[Krappadizzle]

MS is screwed lmao

 

[Shizumapower]

From the Amazon page:

 

[JLMC469]

Big time, Series S just got slapped.

Nah. Don’t underestimate the casual crowd and parents. The $300 pricetag is appealing for them.

 

[Dee Dah Dave]

Nice price for the digital. Shame gaming is dead as it’s just the same shit over and over again with a new texture pack.

God I wish Nintendo would provide a serious option for core gamers

 

[Senua]

That Blu-Ray drive for €100/$100 more better be something truly amazing...

Obviously it's only that cheaper because you are locked into their online store. They'll get that $100 back and more one way or another

 

[Tickrate]

Somewhat unexpected to see $399 for the digital edition.

 

[Explosive Zombie]

So 100 dollars more than an S for that much more power + exlusives + PS+ library... yeah...

 

[PSNplanetcolony]

Next gen gaming starts at $399.... I love it

 

[Soulja]

Ain't nobody buying a Series S after Sony dropped that DE bombshell.

 

[MrS]

£449 easy money

 

[GamerEDM]

when can i pre order damn it

 

[sinnergy]

399 is fucking HUGE ... for a 10 TFlop system...

You are getting a full next gen for 399 100 more than Xbox1 S

And this surprises you ? It’s the max you can get away with in these times ? Series S is still 100 less, perfectly situated in today’s market imo .

 

[VN1X]

Name me one reason why I should go out and get one of these at launch? Is there a launch line-up available yet? :/

 

[THE DUCK]

Incoming ms price drop.......series s can't stay at $299, even the x perhaps should drop......

 

[Max_Po]

Everyone quoting $399 don't care about the disk drive all of a sudden? What happened to muh series S is going to fail with no drive crowd?

Xbox1S is a botched upgrade

299 for 4TFlop
399 for 10TFlop

 

[Sybrix]

Its not about that, that big price gap is to entice you to get the digital only console so you pay the stupid prices for games on PS Store, they make their money back this way

 

[Whataborman]

Did they announce a pre-order date?

 

[#Phonepunk#]

That’s so cheap hell yes I’m getting one at launch.

 

[xrnzaaas]

I don't like the idea of Europe waiting a week for the launch. Yes it's only 7 days, but still sends a message.

Pricing is good, I'm picking up the bluray version for sure.

 

[JunkerWoland]

Not surprising, but I'm glad both the disc-ed PS5 and the XBox Series X are coming in at $500.

 

[Ar¢tos]

Not even a prediction for Demon's Souls
As much as I would like to get one at launch, I'm gonna wait for DeS. They might make a limited Edition prettier than the normal console.

 

[GHG]

Price is right so what are the launch titles?

 

[Bladed Thesis]

Awesome price. Digital for me it is.

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

Everyone quoting $399 don't care about the disk drive all of a sudden? What happened to muh series S is going to fail with no drive crowd?

Where's this no drive crowd cause I never seen em

 

[ethomaz]

That Blu-Ray drive for €100/$100 more better be something truly amazing...

They are probably losing more money on DE than the disc one (it is probably not losing any here).

 

[LeftThumbstick]

$399 effective neuters the XBS S. $100 is not enough for the downgrade unless you are already in team Xbox.

Ahh yes, because moms all around are really about them console wars

 

[Senua]

Nice price for the digital. Shame gaming is dead as it’s just the same shit over and over again with a new texture pack.

God I wish Nintendo would provide a serious option for core gamers

you complete set of bastards ya

 

[Aion002]

That Blu-Ray drive for €100/$100 more better be something truly amazing...

It isn't..... Sony just wants to sell more digital editions because they get more money on PSN sales.


DE here I go..... In february, because this year in Brazil it will cost 999 usd......

 

[Hawking Radiation]

Lmao doubt it.

Doubt it?

With no exclusives on launch and for $100 extra you get a full fat PS5 that can do true 4K instead of 1440p like Series S?

LOL

 

[mikefrails]

So are we supposed to guess the launch lineup or maybe they'll let us know later?

 

[Synless]

Where is the preorder info?

 

[MiguelItUp]

Lol there's gonna be so many "I TOLD Y'ALL SO" about the price. Man, shut up about your desire to be right ass, and just get your credit card ready, lmao.

 

[BlackM1st]

Nice

 

[MiyazakiHatesKojima]

$399 for a 10 Teraflop/Ultra SSD Next-Gen Console!!!

 

[Yoboman]

Man there really is no argument for the Series S anymore

 

[ne1butu]

Could MS drop series S price? Currently it’s looking redundant already

 

[Kayoba]

19th november for the rest of the world.

Ouch, living in Europe sucks.

 

[scalman]

digital is so cheap compare that blue ray drive is not that expencive but 100 loweer price, wow. so cheap. XSS digital will be dead with it less then half next gen power for 299.

 

[ethomaz]

when can i pre order damn it

I believe you can pre-order already in most retails.

 

[iorek21]

Oh, so Brazil's price will be 10x that then

 

[TearInto5th]

Called it. I knew they would go $100 price difference, they'll easily make bank on that DE machine.
