Let’s see if they make the VR mode much better on the Pro, if so, I’ll get one. I wonder if they could get rid of reprojection or simply make it look fancier.
It sounds a lot cheaper if one is trying to convince himself to get it when you consider it is £100 cheaper than the standard iPhone 16 128GB or just £150 more than a 2TB Series X but you get no disc drive. I have yet to use the disc drive on my launch PS5 so I can see myself pre-ordering it when available as an impulse purchase (Already bought an 8TB SSD in advance for it earlier this year) even though I don't really play games much, haven't played anything on my PS5 in months. I was thinking before the conference, please don't be £800 as I was considering getting two (One to replace PS5 and another to replace PS4 with) and it ended up being that with the disc drive.Well that's something I guess.
PS6 gonna be £1000 at this rate.I am very pleased with PS5 disc version with an extrernal HDD.
700 euros are expensive to invest for a PS5... I will waiting PS6 better...
If PS6 will be 1000 euros be real price ..... i don't know what i will do really...PS6 gonna be £1000 at this rate.

$960 + tax CAD in Canada
Like I said in the other post, I will wait for the PS6 instead. My kids logged in most of the time on my PS5 anyway, we don't really need an upgrade for the foreseeable future.That number for me is a no-go. PS6 will probably $1250 CAD + tax at this point! Smh 😒

The reactions are more than fair. £800 in the UK for a Pro with a disc drive is insane for a console. A 'Pro' console should come with a disk drive, it's not a PC.Define "everyone".
The press I'm following had this thing anywhere between €599 and €799 and the higher price being WITH a drive.
I also hav not seen "everyone" saying the PRO would come without a stand.
The reactions are fair imo.
Well, me.Define "everyone".
Pricing is anybody’s guess, particularly as base PS5 prices have once again increased recently in Japan to some ¥30,000 ($200) more than at launch in 2020, but we wouldn’t be surprised to see the US price beginning with a six.
Fair enoughWell, me.
PlayStation 5 Pro Final Design Teased in Leak
Image via billbil-kun/Dealabs.com A well-known gaming industry leaker has teased the final design for the long-rumored PlayStation 5 Pro console, with a sketch based upon the console's consumer packaging. It's an unusual way for information of this kind to sneak out from under the covers, butwww.gtplanet.net
Even said the exact figure in a GTP staff chat about an hour before the stream

That's the mid-range GPU that's going into these things. If you want something high-end, that's four figures before the decimal.Well, as a recent PC builder I've learned not to flinch at those prices. That's about the cost of the GPU alone!
Exactly. People want more powerful stuff but expect everything to be the same price 🤷♂️ I was just reminded that the current PS5 is $500. Of course this was going to be a fair bit more. They aren't going to go through the logistics and R&D to sell a fractionally better piece of hardware for $100 more. This'll make for a good holdover for the next 4+ years til PS6.That's the mid-range GPU that's going into these things. If you want something high-end, that's four figures before the decimal.
I have very 'hands on' kids. Safest place for it is on a stand behind the TV.What is with all these vertical stand weirdos? You deserved to be charged extra as far as I'm concerned
It's the buying of said disc drive that's the issue. Another £100 + £25 vertical stand and you're not far off a grand for a console that does nothing revolutionary, nor have exclusive software. I really wanted one but now will hold off till I see if GTA VI makes use of its additional power.I don’t understand the no disc drive complaint. It’s one of the most fragile components in a gaming console, so having it as a separate add-on greatly reduces the risk of sending an otherwise healthy console in for repairs/replacement.
Comparing apples and oranges there. The car is £28k already, perspective on the £690 is very different then. Plus everyone's paying monthly anyway so it's what, £5 per month difference?Currently on the Mazda website and "build your Mazda" the MX5 Arctic White is no cost and the optional Machine Grey costs £690.
Thats £690 for just a change in colour, not for the car to be painted (that's included in the cost) just a different colour. So it makes buying a £699 state of the art Sony console seem fine to me.
If Sony was owned by a car company the optional disc drive would be a £1460 accesorry. (misspelling intended)
US prices do not include VAT, which varies by state, though the rate is still cheaper than the UK's 20%.The reactions are more than fair. £800 in the UK for a Pro with a disc drive is insane for a console. A 'Pro' console should come with a disk drive, it's not a PC.
Edit: Not an expert but £800 dollars in the US is way cheaper than the £800 in the UK, not sure if this is always the case, seems a bit more reasonable in the US.
Thanks for that, not that much better off in that case then.US prices do not include VAT, which varies by state, though the rate is still cheaper than the UK's 20%.
Depends, whats the base colour price of orange?Comparing apples and oranges there.
Wanting to keep your PS5 upright like how the console is marketed is weird?What is with all these vertical stand weirdos? You deserved to be charged extra as far as I'm concerned
