PS5 is already paid for
XSX $530 payment when it ships
PS5 headset
Demon's Souls
Miles-Man

That's it for day one but it still HURTS.

I have a ps5 disc preorder but have no idea what if any launch games I want to get. I'm interested in Dirt 5 but it's release date on PS5 seems like some kind of mystery unless I'm missing something. Probably I will get spiderman and I might pick up AC Valhalla if it gets good reviews. I dunno none of the launch titles are must haves for me I loved Spiderman PS4 but having a hard time getting excited for a side story that is probably just more of the same. I'm waiting on cyberpunk for the ps5 version which sounds like it will be in 2021.

I'm interested in Demons Souls but only ever beat Dark Souls 1 and i'm kind of stuck on a Dark Souls 3 play through so i'm not sure I want to pay full price for Demon Souls and might wait for a sale.

PS5 alone is over $800 over here. Demon's plus Spidey UE, will be over $960. Good thing is I can go through all my PS4 backlog.

So to upgrade my post, i paid off my xbox series x and ps5.

I also ordered an elite series 2 and an extra playstation 5 controller.

I also ordered the ps5 remote. I don't have any games ordered other than watch dog legions because of a trade in promotion. So it's still an expensive month and even more than I expected but to offset the cost I sold my ps4 pro and xbox one x.

You should've broken your high range further. Personally I'm spending

Xbox Series X - 500
Xbox Series S - 300
3 Extra Xbox Controllers (165)

Really my spending spree starting this month with
Quest 2 - 400
Quest 2 Elite Battery Strap with Case - 130
Quest 2 Games - 140
3 Years of Game Pass Ultimate - $181 (paid off until September of 2023)
6 Months of GameFly - 94

November Total - $965
Oct/Nov Total - $1910

That is a lot but not to bad when you consider that I'm getting 3 pieces of hardware (XSX, XSS, Quest 2) and this includes GamePass until September of 2023 and I'm sure I'll play at least 30-40 games in that time. Also the 6 months of GameFly will allow me to play AC: Valhalla, Cyberpunk and a couple other normally $60/70 dollar games.

Those full priced games are what is killing some of your totals.

Well, I've already paid for the PS5, an extra Dual Sense, the headset and the media remote. So, in november, I only plan to pay for some games, like Miles Morales and, maybe (and that's a big maybe, as I'm not that into Ubisoft, these days) Assassin's Creed. Other than that, I'm still heavily into my PS4 backlog, so I have that to look forward to.

PC only, not upgrading any hardware this year, since I just built a new mid-range rig a year ago (Ryzen 3700x and 1660ti)

I sank 150 hours into Horizon Zero Dawn over Aug-Sept and still feeling kinda burned out on AAA open worlds right now. So I honestly think November's gonna be a quieter month for me. A lot of awesome indie games out in Oct (Vigil: The Longest Night, Raji: An Ancient Epic, Biomass, Endless Memories, Pumpkin Jack, Xuan Yuan Sword VII) that I'll be likely picking up and playing; but the only really interesting thing I see for November right now is the next expansion to SpellForce 3.

There's probably gonna be some cool indie games on sale form my wishlist, or something new and exciting might sneak up, so I'm guessing I'll probably spend somewhere up to 200 CAD on random buys (oh yeah, Black Friday sales will be next month, too); but nothing super excessive.

I'm not sure yet. I have a ps5 pre-order but I have realised I'm not too bothered about any launch games, especially at rrp. I am definitely getting cyberpunk so it's just whether I'm playing it on the ps5 or the pro.

Getting a BF deal on a TV like the CX will probably blow that budget out of the water anyway. 🤷‍♂️

I'm getting the Xbox Series X and PS5, I just bought a new TV (Sony x900h), and I'll also be picking up a few games. So my wallet is going to be in very serious pain. Not to mention Christmas gifts...

Buying both consoles and likely a few PS exclusives, but I've been setting money aside for next-gen launch for some time now so these purchases will have little-to-no impact on my wallet overall.

Just Destiny: Beyond Light Deluxe Edition and Legend of Zelda: Age of Calamity for me. Should be able to get both for less than 100€ with some extra credit I've got laying around.

Eh... buying a Series X. Probably won't even buy a game. My days of buying day 1 games are loooooooong gone. Gamepass is perfect for me. I just want to be able to play my old shit without all the slowness. The only game i've really put time into recently is Minecraft Dungeons with the kiddos. Lol. It's nice that my old controllers will work with the SeriesX.

I'll sell my Xbox 1s.
Some wacko bought my xbone kinect for like $130 on ebay a couple months ago.

About 600 USD or 800 Canadian dollars. Now the issue is that I also have to spend money on clothes and Christmas gifts.

$600 usd is my money allocated just purely for electronic

I have no pre-orders. If I get a PS5, I'll get demons souls. If I get a series x, I already have gamepass ultimate. That's it.

I do want to buy a new phone though...

Probably Cyberpunk and Yakuza 7, if 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim got a decent discount on BF then I'll buy it. That's all I guess, so not over $150, hopefully

I have a PS5 preorder but I have been planning for it for months, so it won't have a real impact on my wallet. I got 2K21 with the last gen version, already preordered Miles Morales, and will probably get Demon's Souls, and maybe another game but not settled on what yet.

Grabbed a Series X, but since my X1 controllers work, I don't need to buy any more, and with Gamepass, I won't need to buy Tetris. I'm interested in The Falconeer and Kingdom Hearts MoM, though.

I'm not really sure yet. I couldn't secure a PS5 pre-order and don't think I'll be able to, so I've given up trying to get one. As far as games go, I might get Hyrule Warriors, but anything else depends on Black Friday sales. I doubt I'll be spending any more than $150 though.

Only HW Age of Calamity for me. An indie game is possible but I won't vote more than 60 because it isn't guaranteed. Even then it's possible it won't be more than 60, as I'm paying 45 for HW Age of Calamity.

It's really bad. I hate that I want/need a new receiver again. That was something I hadn't thought about coming in to this year.

PS5 Disc Edition, second DualSense, Black Ops Cold War Ultimate, €100 PSN topup for whatever looks cool some week(s) after launch.
So €750 in total.

Technically, not that bad. I used credit cards. Luckily I had a couple with enough credit limit to pre order consoles.

1 for PS5 disc version
1 for Series X
1 for PS5 accessories
1 for Miles Ultimate Edition, Demons Souls
1 for a 1TB NVMe with 2 enclosures

Nov is gonna be outrageous in my home, lol. I just need a Series controller, I think all my XBO controllers are broke. And another NVMe.

Xbox Series X, PS5, Demons Souls, Extra controllers for each and the extra 1TB expantion for the Series X. Cyberpunk

Wallet would be crying. Fortunately I had enough trade in credit at best buy to not spend a dime.

PS5, Demons Souls, and Hyrule Warriors. should end up close to $700 USD after tax. this is right after spending $180 on 3 years of xbox gold to do the GPU conversion. fortunately Q1 seems light next year so i can save back up

Buying a game, Spider-Man, and not much more than that. Will ultimately cancel my PS5 pre-order and will nab one early next year when Ratchet & Clank release.

Maybe I'll replace my Vita. Not much coming out in November that I'm interested in other than the new consoles, but I can't justify spending that much money just for a game or two. At least not yet.

Next to zero, depending on Steam, etc sales. October was the wallet pain with new TV plus Steam Index order.

I upgraded my PC last week, so October has ruthlessly murdered my wallet beyond all comprehension.

In November I'll probably grab a game or two and maybe a Dual Sense controller if they turn out to be great.

I've been putting aside a few bucks here and there for PS5 for a while and have it just about covered at this point. I might pull the trigger on a 48'' LG CX though, which will set me back a cool $62.50/mo for the next two years. Gonna wait until Black Friday just in case it knocks a few bucks off.
