Imagine paying $700 for a PS5.5

[โ€“] Fermion@feddit.nl 18 points 3 weeks ago

That's $700 for a digital only edition without a disk drive or vertical stand. It's $810 to match the features of the PS5.0

Or 800โ‚ฌ...

This whole thing is shaping up to be the PS3's "five hundred and ninety nine us dollars" version 2.

Adjusted for inflation, that's $1,082.19, by the way (and they still lost money with every single first-gen PS3 sold).

That's usually without tax in US, right?

Don't forget the $10-18/mo subscription for the right to play it. And the $60-70/game.

Hey, that's no fair! You didn't mention that monthly fee GIVES you FREE games FOREVER!*

*Forever as long as you pay the subscription cost

I never uninstalled Disco Elysium and I still can play it even though my subscription ended.

I have some games that I'm sure I didn't purchase but are not tied to the PS Plus. Maybe it's a bug?

To play online, yes. Has been like that for a loooong time on PS
