Realistically, how would you pay for Playstation 6 ?

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Get a second job?
Sell something valuable?
Do something illegal?
Sell a kidney?

credit card

35% interest rate

minimum monthly payments
Better make sure you have a PlayStation branded credit card.


Wouldn't want Capital One making more off your purchase than Sony did.
 
Pay with cash? However, that's all dependent on the following...


- release big blockbuster release games (plural) that aren't remakes.
- have to be a good bump performance wise over the PS5 Pro
- have backwards compatibility
- have disc drive
- Costs no more than $700

I know none of that is going to happen, so I'm fine not buying it if it doesn't.

I'll be honest. I've owned every PlayStation in existence.. I even have a PSX, the overbloated PS2.

I haven't touched a PS console in more than a year. So I don't know if I'm in with the next one.. it really depends on the games. I'm a little bit over the Sony mojo. Let's wait and see..depends on the value for me.
 
If their exclusives remain as unremarkable as they have the last 2 generations, then I won't need to spend any money on a PS6. I'll just stick with PC and Nintendo.
 
nothing, why should pay for a device with close online shop, expensive peripherals and expensive online subscriptions? Prefer spending my money on a PC, even if it's not good enough for me to play at 4k
 
If it keeps getting more expensive I will eventually be able to trade in my base PS5 for a house. I can then rent that house to generate extra income and I if I save up that money for 5-6 years I'll have enough for a down payment on a base PS6.

Which is nice because it will be around season 47 of Marathon which fans are saying is the one that will finally make the game popular!

People don't buy consoles for consoles. Please buy consoles to play games they want.

Assuming a long crossgen period, i expect NO ONE needing to buy PS6 for half a decade.

Normally Sony would fear people jumping to PC if the next hardware don't show up in time. But as a PC gamer, I can tell Sony has nothing to worry about. PC hardware progress is frozen.

Basically the next gen doesn't start until the tech and economics say it does . And that means an actual next gen game title that people would actually want to play, that CAN'T run on a PS5. I don't see it happen until, as I said, 6 years from now.

it reminds me of when I saw the real video of Black Myth Wukong. That was my "oh, next gen is here" moment for this generation. And that was what, 2024? PS5 came out in 2020 so that was a 4 year gap for me feeling the next gen. So for PS6 I expect 6 years.
