Jesus fucking christ that thing is ugly.
If I had to guess I'd say MS goes this week with 299/499 and Sony next week with 399/449
As someone who has done marketing it must suck to have your entire event ruined.
Oh well, at least this game of chicken should be over.
Here's a design I threw together for all the announced SIE games.
Maybe it's just me and there is something different about the PS5 DE but as it is, it is literally a PS5 without a disc drive. That's it. There's nothing different about it from a tech standpoint. If you're competing with the PS5 you've got to take in the digital version and consider what it is. Once again while the S is a budget machine the DE is not.xsx same price as ps5digital?
i will miss these *insert bannable word* posts.
Yeah lolJesus fucking christ that thing is ugly.

XSX will be $499 or less. We have no official price. They're waiting and Sony will keep waiting, too. Sony won't change their plans because of an un-official price / leak. So yeah, let's wait and see.That doesn't matter. It means that the XSX has to be $499 on more, since otherwise it wouldn't make the XSS a particularly good value proposition by comparison. They are going for a stratified model, so it will be $499 or quite possibly $599. I doubt the latter now though, particularly with Nvidia bringing out the 3070 at 499 and being a fair bit more powerful.
Yeah. Also agree, new Sly would be great.Still so happy that Sony didn't forgot Sackboy <3
Now do the same with Sly pelase.
I don't get where they were going with that design, I'm really puzzled by that Black Circle on the top. it's kinda jarring to look at in pictures, maybe it looks better in person or after repeat viewings. The PS5 did take some time to settle in my mind
Yeah I dont think this was a controlled leak. Shinobi said they had an event planned with all this info for next week.yeah I couldn't agree more, but marketing has to now be prepared for these to leak eventually. but the fact that this news came in so late shows that MS was caught off guard when this happened

Sony over here making sure all their faucets are nice and tight until the next Playstation state of play 😂
Let's wait for the official announcement then.I won't be less. I am willing to bet on that. They have absolutely no incentive to make it less, since that will undercut their value proposition for the XSS and doesn't fit in with a stratified hardware model. Even $150 difference between XSX and XSS tilts very heavily in the XSX favour. I would also likely mean they would be taking a pretty decent loss on the console, and they will likely will be or be near that with the XSS.
That series S price got me thinkig about a potential PS5s. Theoretically what would Sony need to do to come up with a similarly priced option? (Not that there's anything pointig to them needing to.)
Keep the same APU but drop the clock for the GPU and use a simpler cooling solution while also shrinking RAM size. Would that be enough?

Wow, didn't expect that...
Did i still miss something?
I have seen the XSS price, but i hear a lot of XSX $499 talk.
Was XSX price also announced?
There was a leak from Windows Central that mentioned XSS at 299 and XSX at 499.
Microsoft officially confirmed XSS at 299.
Shinobi said MS will have a event next week, so probably they'll announce the XSX official price there.
If they really want to be aggressive 449 and 349 but the lost might be to much at 349 for the DE.

Yeah, those two are the most realistic scenariosSince MS went first, here are two options I can see now happening
1) PS5 DE - $399/ PS5 - $449
2) PS5 DE - $399/ PS5 - $499

I believe it was Sept 10,but then Sony said this was psvr week, so who knows if we'll actually get anything.
