£499 is really not a huge price for Ps5
The PS5 is $500 which is what I was expecting, no way it was gonna be less than that lmao. Digital PS5 is $400 which is pretty cool too. It obviously couldn't be as low as the Series S, but I still think that's a great price for the digital only version
My Thoughts. Sony Made a VERY compelling argument on buying a PS5. Great Show. They're paying Big money for exclusives and Taking a HUGE loss on the price of their console!
The PS5 showcase marked the event the entire world had been waiting for. The new-gen consoles promise to provide players with the kind of experience that has never been witnessed before.
Right before the end of the showcase, Sony slyly slipped in the price of its consoles. This marks the beginning of the console war and the toughest question on the table right now is, which side are you on?
