>Won $360 at the casino >Halfway to a PS5 Pro>Can get a 10% discount because I work at the store>Still going to cost $680 after taxesWhy the fuck does it have to be so much fucking money?! $700 for a fucking console, fuck. I don't know how fatass weebs afford anything, just walk into stores and drop $700-$800 on shit casually, probably put it on a credit card and make minimum payments for 6-12 months, kek.
get a jobdumb frogposter
>>695193062>Tells me to get a job >Reading comprehension would tell you I have a job>Anon doesn't have reading comprehensionI'm sorry you can't read, anon.
>>695193001Just get a used fat PS5 you idiot. It's superior to this scam product. You get a beefier heat sink AND a disc drive.
>>695193137>Disc driveMost of my games are digital nowadays, I use to buy physical only but that hasn't been for quite a while. I think the last physical game I bought was 4-5 years ago? I'd be fine without the disc drive honestly, also I already own a PS5, but I still want the Pro, why? I don't have to justify anything to you people.Deep down part of me believes it is, or will be superior to base PS5 eventually
>>695193438You're an idiot. But a fool and his money are easily departed.
>>695193498That's not how quote, goes and you're an ESL retard, so you wouldn't understand anything I say.
>>695193001If you can't afford to buy things then don't. More "expensive" things are for people who have lots of excess income, which you clearly don't have.Just get used normal ps5 if you need one. You could probably find that around the price of your casino money nowadays
>>695193001>sold 4090 for 1350,->put it into doge>no worth 3250,->see game I want on sale for 25,->still doubtStarting out poor in live really is shit man. Even when my wife and I had 200k I would still nickle and dime shit.
>>695194006Again I already own a base PS5, but I want to Pro because...I just do. My reasons are my own. I'm still allowed to think it's overpriced like everyone else, even if I'm not the target demographic I guess that Sony is marketing it towards. I don't even want to call it a "luxury item" but it probably is in the gaming sphere. A lot of gamers probably won't need or even want a PS5 Pro, but there are some that will. It's not even a suitable comparison probably, but you're acting like they released something similar to a Rolex for only the wealthy 1% to afford, which isn't the case. A $700 video game console isn't like buying a $150,000 car or watch, but that's how some people are going to see it, which is retarded. >>695194176>Cryptofag>ME WIFE AND I HAD 200K HURR >I'm a cheap fuck like everyone else who has money Opinion discarded and ignored.
Console hardware is a once in every 8 year purchase. If you actually genuinely believe this is too expensive you could never EVER have any other hobby. Because gaming is easily the cheapest hobby there is.
>>695193498It truly is a doggy dog world out there.
>>695193787>That's not how quote, goes and you're an ESL retardRiveting counter-argument, snoy.
>>695194230You're the one acting like it couple hundreds is insane amount of money that nobody can afford though
>>695194232I don't have any other hobbies but that's because I'm boring. Anime and gaming are all I've done for 15+ years, and even on the anime side of it I don't buy figurines or merchandise for it, so realistically I put almost no money into anime as a hobby. You can watch anime for free, so it's a free hobby in my eyes, unless you want to buy figurines, merchandise, shirts, jackets, manga collecting, etc. I'd say manga collecting is the more common expense for anime fans, and yes that is expensive, but I don't care about collecting manga when I can read it for free online. The PS5 came out in late 2020, so it took four years to release the PS5 Pro. The PS4 came out in 2013, and the PS4 Pro came out in 2016, so just looking at the time trends, I'd realistically say we won't even get a PS6 till 2028 at best. I also think the PS5 Pro has way more value and features than what the PS4 Pro offered, which was basically nothing. I do think the PS4 Pro was a worthless upgrade/product, but the PS5 Pro actually does have upgrades and features that the base PS5 can't achieve/do, so buying one doesn't seem like an absolute waste of money. I tell myself if I get one now it would be worth it over the next four years most likely, considering you won't get the next Playstation for another four years at minimum.
>>695194402>Make a typo>Anons think you're ESLYou clearly knew what I meant, and you/that anon are wrong. The quote is "A fool and his money are easily parted."
there's literally no reason to buy a pro. there's literally no exclusives coming to ps5
>>695193001So you got some money you can either>Add some of your own to buy a console where you can play nothing>Or add some to buy a steam deck where you can play everything that matters there>Or have yourself a king's dinner>Or buy a hooker and play with her vaginaBuying a ps5 is literally the worst choice you can make
>>695193001just find a stolen one that someone is selling on Facebook for an additional discount. or at least buy a used one from ebay. why buy at full price
>>695193001>so poor that he thinks $800 is a sum that requires an installment plan>still goes to a casinoMan I really hope this is bait because if not I just feel bad for you.
>>695193001Why would anyone want a PS5 in the first place?There are cheaper Blu-ray players out there.
>>695198975I think you underestimate how many people don't even have $1,000 in the bank. I also went to the casino for fun because it was my dad's birthday. People are allowed to gamble casually and for fun. I'm not some crackhead unemployed trying to get money for a fix and a stay at the motel 6. If anything, you see more retired/elderly people at the casino blowing all their cash. Also, I work in retail, so I know people are financing a lot of things on credit cards, retard. You don't think people aren't coming in and financing that Ipad, Apple products, game consoles, etc? Throwing it on the card and then paying it off over a course of 3-6 months. Ever heard of those installment apps like Klarna and Afterpay? I see tons of people use it all the time at the store. They're financing apps that break down that $800 payment into installments, and yes, a lot of people use it. Do I support it or think it's great? Not really, but my overall point is you're not being realistic in how many people do that.
>>695193498Like pottery
>>695199280Man, I just feel bad for you. I sincerely hope you find a way out of whatever slum you live in that having $1,000 in the bank is seen as uncommon.
>>695199492>What slum you live in It's called middle class America. I'm glad you made bank on crypto, but in the real world a lot of people live paycheck to paycheck and don't have $50,000 in the bank. You're obviously not in the same income bracket as most Americans, so making you see my perspective won't matter in the least bit. A job that pays $25,000 a year isn't a lot of money, and yet it's a more common job for people to have compared to people who are making $50,000-$75,000 a year. You obviously must make a lot more and that's fine, but again, you're in a higher income bracket and don't see money the way I do. If you make $75,000 a year, you won't understand a person who makes $25,000 a year. You don't have to feel "pity" and nobody has to accept it; you just don't understand someone who lives on $20,000 or $25,000 a year, despite it being a fairly common thing for the nation.
>>695193001So your $320 away from buying it. Surely you can save up that amount in ~3months? Console only just came out, waiting 3 months isn't a massive deal in the grand scheme of things and it might even get a price drop in that time period and also have more games and/or Pro patches released by then.Fatass weebs, if they're not rich and/or drop things on a credit card, usually save up. Pro verified "rumors" (essentially all but official confirmation) have been around since March, officially announced in September. That's 2-8 months to have up for it.
>>695193001>casino>Complains he cannot afford a consoleYou might afford it if you never walked into places where you don't belong
>>695200247Median US salary, ie the most common (not the average that would get skewed by high earners, again this is the median, so the most common amount people earn) is ~50k. If you earn HALF that then you're not middle class, you're clearly in lower class/financially insecure category
>>695193438Disc drive is mandatory because many games are cheaper as a physical copy than their digital counterpart at a sale as soon as 2-4 weeks after release. The option for physical is the last bastion console have over a PC. Both are so similar to each other nowadays that what you play on is decided mostly by what the people you play with use anyway since crossplay still is either not available or bugged.t. protard with a side pc
>>695200676To double down with this I'll add: you have almost 400 bucks, more than enough for a Xbox S or a Quest 3S, they're not what you want, sure, and I understand you perfectly, the console costs a lot. Don't cry over undrinkable water, dig your own well So choose to try either of those two, you might like the Quest 3S, I know some people that did.
>>695200998He also said he had a base PS5. He could sell that, GameSpot who are rip off merchants will give him $180 for, he could get more if he sold it himself on eBay, FB etc... then he's only like <$150 short of a Pro.
>>695201519Nonsense tale, ps5 havers should aim for a quest 3s of my two options, anything else isn't worth it
>>695201804Most people I've seen/spoken with have said they wasted money on a VR headset and didn't like it. It's a very niche community that enjoys it, so telling people to go get a VR headset over a gaming console isn't a good comparison. A large majority won't like it and get less mileage out of it than a gaming console. You'd get more mileage over 2-3 years out of a PS5 Pro then you would out of a Meta Quest 3s, despite the cost difference you're more likely to get bored of the VR headset.
>>695202560Unless you aren't an autist permaidling on vrchat or grinding beatsabre scores etc. you will barely lot in 500 hours on a VR headset without getting the feeling you are replaying the same shit over and over. A shame. I like the VR but I don't like the no gaems.
>>695193001Buy a Bible.
>>695193120If you had a job it wouldn't be some herculean task to save up a bit of money. >no-no I'm a single mom with cancer and 173 children Shut the fuck up.
>>695205789You're such an incel, kek.
OP is such a massive retarded faggot. Why hasn't he killed himself yet?
>>695206271There is no reason to be upset.
>>695200247The fuck ? with 30k per year in french countryisde i have payed off my house, live comfortably and have enough savings to buy a second one.
