Sony is doing an excellent job making GamePass look attractive.So around $737 for a PS5 at launch if I buy just one game.
Thoughts?
This is my saving grace.
I blame Ford for this.$712 here in Ontario for the disc version of PS5 with tax.
Games are $89.99
Canadians are entitledWe got a favorable exchange rate. What are you complaining about?
The buying power of imports is weakened with a weak dollar, surely you understand this. It is more expensive for us than it was a couple years ago plain and simple. Games went from 60 to 90 in one generation and we aren't paid in USD. If americans had a similar price hike the whining would have been biblical.
The Series X is $600I'm actually surprised we got a favourable exchange rate. I really don't know what price did you expect for?

Yes and probably higher than yours. My province is 15%.Do you all have a VAT up in Canada? Most of us in the USA will be paying sales tax on our $399 purchase.

It could be worse, like being in Australia....
$749 for the console and $120 for games!
honestly I think gamepass looks better and better by the day.The Xbox is 30 dollars cheaper.
So you have a more powerful consoles that is also smaller, and cheaper, and has a service that blunts the insanely high game prices we have now(not to mention a SKU that is under 400 bucks)
That's the issue.
Canada loves to tax, in Quebec we also have tax on digital purchasesDo you all have a VAT up in Canada? Most of us in the USA will be paying sales tax on our $399 purchase.
Yeah, the $120 base for games is obscene (US $87.12).It could be worse, like being in Australia....

granted it was 2010 when it was done, but a econamist modeled ourt a maxuim revenue model for games and found $40 to be it. we have had so manny secusses thois gen in that range too of games just blowing up. I am almost shocked to see game prices go up.Time to consider gamepass and multi-plat gaming on another comparable but more affordable device / ecosystem?
not in Quebec tho :(
I'm sorry fellow Canuck.
