PS5 Price increase....

[Luseth 2,224]

Don't know if anyone saw but the PS5 price is going up by roughly £90 in the UK... Isn't this the first time console prices have gone up during the lifespan rather than down as the cost of manufacturing decreases generally as they get more efficient and such.

 

Will the xbox follow suit, will the Switch see price increases at some point do you think?

 

We have obviously seen it with PC gaming with components increasing dramatically in price in recent years.

I feel like the PS5 has never really got into its stride, its just a slightly faster PS4 as far as I'm concerned...with the PS5 Pro being more in line of what it should have been...and with talk that to really be able to enjoy the next GTA its best to have a Pro, which is currently around £700 🙈

and they're already talking about PS6 being on the horizon 🙃

I've just decided not to renew my PS subscription as I don't play that much anymore.

 

I've snagged some old "not good enough for Windows 11" PCs from where I work part time and I'm now running a Minecraft server for me and my 6 year old grandson .

It's great but there are times when I feel like changing my name from "Grandad?"  😂😂😂

 

The PC he's using is the one you guys got me in 2019 (that day was epic!) so that's been repurposed as well, just needed a wifi card 😊

I found the PS5 Pro on sale on EE's website (of all places lol) the day before prices all went up. Couldn't resist picking it up as I've one eye on the forthcoming GTA 6 and I hear Pro is the way to go. Got the disk drive for it too.
