>>735816717uhhh isn't this console like 10 years old?what the fuck is this shit?
>>735816743and of course, a screen with a controller attached to it is $250
>>735816717What about the games?
society is collapsing
>>735816717>>PS5 Pro – $899.99>Still need to drop an extra $100 for a disc drive>The cheapest PSN subscription is $80At that point just buy a pre-built PC or something.
>nobody buying consoles>lets raise the price!What do you call this business strategy

>>735817090bankruptcy speedrun
>>735816717Incredible Now there is zero excuse to buy a console You're saving nothingIt's simply just for retards too stupid for computers
So is this just to announce PS6 that only comes bundled with a copy of GTA6 at 1299$?
>>735817090It's what failing restaurants do. They don't change anything just raise prices
>>735817321>ps6 will cost as much as a helixGrim
>>735816717Back when gaming was good the older the console got the lower the price did too.
Crazy how I can potentially make money on my launch-era PS5Early adopterbros we eating good this genSwitch 2 will inevitably get a price bump, tooI bought one a few months back (despite it having no games) because I saw the writing on the wall
>>735816717
>>735817506We have to beat China at AIIts for national securityIf you don't agree with this you are the antichrist
>>735816717you don't hate Amerikunts enough
>>735816717Only third worlders care about shit like this/thread
>>735817546>We have to beat China at AISure, Jan
Wtf bros I was told consoles were made of unicorn magic and were unaffected by the memory crisis
>>735817503You're not eating good you're living in squalor.. get it together
>>735817506He didn’t tell Ram companies to stop selling to consumers and start selling only to AI companies
>>735816717and people think xbox and gaystation going to release new consoles with these ram times
>>735816717Kaz was a visionary with the 600 PS3 LMFAO, you voted for this btw.
>>735817000another 100 Million USD$ to buy RAM and GPUs for AI data centres
>>735816717>consoles faggots saying bull shit that only pc will increase in price, but not consoles after the whole ram shit>new ps, xbox, and switch 2 price droppedLMAOOOOOOOO, console faggots are so retarded and they STILL have to pay money to play online, which will also increase in price.
Just as DRAM shortage is collapsing lmao
>>735817657>get it togetherNo.
>>735817691I voted for AI companies to steal all the ram in the world?
>>735816991>6 years>no games>people still playing on PS4Is Sony finally done?
>>735816991is that a fruit or something? >>735817090it's called a retard tax, console fags will still buy it.
>>735816717>games so shit you can skip an entire generationThanks for saving me money snoy. Only things I'd see myself playing on this shit are armored core and elden ring in sixty frames. So PS4 games. PS4 games I already completed ~7 times.
>>735816717are these suppose dto be expensive?I paid £700+ on launch with a razor headset horizon and second controller (which i needed after 4 years because stick drift)yanks get shit dirt cheap fuck off
>>735817760other retard taxes: $2000 slop GPUs, $300 RAM
>>735817248you weren't saving anything in the first place by getting a console after subscriptions became a thing.
>>735817248Build a pc today that can match a ps5 pro. You are well nearing the 2k at this point. Everything sucks
>>735817697>>735817760>consolefags this and consolefags thatSee you in the next RAM crybaby thread about how you can't afford it.
>>735816717>console gets older>price goes up now
>>735816847lol you pc cucks pay 3 x that for a gpu lmao
>>735817503I only got the switch 2 cause of the new fire emblem and the new fromsoftware game. Fuck i might actually cash out from this.
>>735817830The funny thing is that thanks to Google, memory prices are already going down.
>>735817684Sure, tariff threat and halting semiconductor supply chain at Hormuz was done by Ghost of Joe Biden.
>>735817738Living the life like m->uncapped piss bottlesactually smart you can wait for the piss to evaporate and then reuse the bottles without a need to empty them manually
we never knew how good we had it
>>735817684>He didn’t tell Ram companies to stop selling to consumers and start selling only to AI companiesYeah he only just gave them taxpayer money that let them buy all the RAM.
2 sticks of ram (8GBx2) is 60$. Not sure what consolecucks are talking about.
>>735816717>PS6 – $1699.99>PS6 Pro – $1999.99LMFAO
Kill all trumpoids
>>735817559>my hobby, my job, my livelihood hangs on the edge because retarded hillybillies elected a reality TV star on their government
>yfw you got one new without even paying for vat
>>735816717Who hasnt got one? Seriously its been out for 6 years now
>>735816717PS6 is absolutely getting delayed no way they launch a console for over a thousand.
>>735817823lol, lmaoat that price you're getting almost 2x the performance of the ps5 pro and you can just drop in components that raise it to ps6 pro in 2027
>>735816717Now lets see how much a PC with a 5070 costs, that cannot out perform a PS5 Pro @ 4k.
guess the last chance to buy one was over the holidays when the Pro was $649absolutely insane for them to think anyone's going to pay nearly a grand
>>735817506you lost, tranny
Good God why couldn't we have ended on a good era?
>>735818231the 5070 is 40% more powerful than what's inside the ps5 protake your meds
>>735816717These are dark times
>>735816991burgers?
>>735817090easier than making games for said console
>>735817684He literally put taxpayer money into AI companies
>>735816717That's insane. Playstation is just dead at this point, most people will dip to Nintendo or PC.The fact they're increasing the price everywhere is crazy tooPS5 – ¥97,980 PS5 Digital Edition – ¥89,980 PS5 Pro – ¥137,980After they begged the Japanese to buy their no games machine they immediately went back on that and raised prices
The video gayme world has become so barren the only thing that could produce a modicum of excitement in me ( outside of playing blood death wish mod now that it's finished, currently at end of ep4 ) would be to build a gayming PC and play all armored core games I missed including the ps360 ones.And it would work only if I wasn't drowning in a shit dead end situation with no escape because right now anxiety makes playing anything near impossible unless it's death wish. Give me euthanasia.
Damn I should have waited to sell my PS5
>>735816717All this just because some people need AI to post slop on social media?
>>735818248The fact that it comes without disc drive is absolutely insane.
>>735816717>Sony refuses to make games>they straight up expect you to just buy the boxIs this what they refer to as late-stage capitalism?
>>735818445It's not like pc is any cheaper. We arent living in the 2010s anymore. Everything is fucked
>>735816717What is pro about it?
wh-what will the PS6 cost?
Bought my console in 2020, didn’t expect it to become an appreciating asset but here we are
>>735818445You think that the Switch isn't going to go up in price?
>>735816717>>PS5 Pro – $899.99what price is the PS6 going to be?
>>735816927My sister sold me her boyfriends for 80 barely used and in great shape
>>735818595the price
>>735818445>people will dipprices are rising for everything everywhere
>>735817068>No, the PS5 Pro does not come with a built-in disc drive; it is a digital-only console out of the box. However, it is compatible with the detachable Disc Drive for PS5 Digital Edition Consoles (CFI-2000 model group - slim), which can be purchased separately for approximately $80 USD and installed by the userwait what? this shit is almost 1100 after taxes?
>>735818698consider that it has to be a much bigger jump than ps5 digital to ps5 pro which they're charging $300 for
>>735816991please someone give this boy some companyhe's all alone on the PS5
>>735816717>Product gets older>They increase the priceWait a minute... Isn't that backwards?
>>735818781not in trumps america
>>735818578pc is cheaper in the long run and has WAY more options and games, anon. Oh and you don't have to pay for online.
is Gran Turismo 7 worth it
>>735817506buckle up buttercup, everything's only gonna get worse. Hope you're willing to pay extra for Greater Israel.
>>735818781Welcome to modern times. Everything is fucked.I sold my car before covid happened, and the used car market went batshit.It's worth more now 6 years later.
>>735817546We also have to drive all our allies away and into Chinas arms using Chink bucks instead of Dollars because America decided to start a war without telling anyone but Isreal and has nothing but hostile towars them for a year>Greenland is mine, no? TRAITORS, I NEED THAT SO CHINA DOESNT OWN IT. IM SENDING WAR SHIPS...ok, this was just a test guys. Youre all so sensitive, you need to prepare for war though, noones military is ready for a war...>so I started a war, and didnt communicate with anyone that I was doing this,..why is noone jumping in, I DEMAND IT...that was just a test guys, you failed by the way, youre traitors. Im pulling funding and support from everyone, youre all assholes. Listen to Asmon, this guy knows what hes saying, dont be a cuck like Hasan who hates America!>...>why are people shopping with China now and investing inwards, why is noone making products for Americans and buying American? Were the best dont they know?! Why is everyone just increasing prices for Americans! Im sick of everyone taking advantage of America!The moment this AI shit stops profiting it will die, but not in China, they will SPEND money to do this kind of shit because it advances them, America is doing it ONLY if it makes money for them in doing it. This mentality is why American hegimony is ending. Look at hte Iran shit, the moment they saw the price tag of the war they noped out, so having the biggest military and market doesnt mean shit, everyone has figured out that America is just about money and nothing else. You can jack those console prices up 10 fold, Americans will pay for it just to be able to flex that they bought it for that price.
>>735818897>The moment this AI shit stops profiting it will die>profit?
>>735818672Nintendo's online is still cheap so they got that route, MKW already paid for itself so drop the $450 and include MKW as a bundle and maybe there's no "price increase" in the same way. NS2 doesn't have as much storage as PS5 which is probably one thing that's impacting their price so much
>>735817738Soul
>>735818897China can't develop their own AI shit without someone else to rip off
>>735818134>when the democrat nominee was somehow worseyeah that had nothing to do with it
Am I supposed to be outraged now? So what its a console for hylics, who have nothing in their lives.
>>735818897China is more reliable than America right now.
>>735817503>(despite it having no games)Oh yeah but that PS5, now those are games
>>735816717I still remember consolefags telling me that the RAM shortage won't affect consoles as if consoles are made with magic and fairies.
PS6 won't have more than 24GB of RAM
>>735819027This is why we have to invest 30 trillion US dollars to beat them We need more data centers
>>735818979Still needs RAM though, and the stupid Trump tariffs don't help.
>>735818231Even DF claims a pro is on par (aka worse) than a 5060ti.
>>735817852Telling someone 10 years ago this would be happening would be met with incredulity, let alone 20 years ago
735819075yes you already posted that wojaknigger
>>735818849With those gpu and ram prices, no it is not.
How much more damage can trump do before his term ends?
I’m glad I got that $450 Astro bot bundle last year.
>>735817090>nobody buying consolesThere will always be consoles to sell, especially today when PC gaming in inaccessible to even low income first worlders.
Imagine buying this trash to play a game where the main character is a fucking ugly indian mutt LMAO
>>735819330He has until January 20th 2027 to keep doing whatever he wants
>>735818897>picrellmao someone saw through amrikunt lies and deceit a century ago. who knew italians were based.
>>735817506Prices went up worldwide you retarded thirdie
>>735818231>>735819209People heavily overestimate the power of PS5 Pro. It's marginal improvement over base PS5. It's essentially PS5 with good upscaling. There's a reason why games on Pro run at the same resolution as PS5 games in performance mode. The power goes mainly to upscaling, since contrary to what some believe, upscaling isn't free.And the thing is that the first RTX GPUs released in 2018 have access to good upscaling since 2020, since the release of DLSS 2.PS5 Pro is PS5 updated to match what PC players already experienced when PS5 launched.
>>735819423Do you say that at the pump too?
>>735818949The groups making AI are getting truck loads of investment money, like, astronomical amounts. The moment that dries up AI is dead, especially when none of the investment money actually makes a return. I think its starting to sink in that this stuff is not going to make money back in their lifetime unless they start charging to use it, which would also see it die over night.
>>735816991virtually none, but i still want to buy one at some point to play my ps4 library which admittedly got pretty huge by the end of the gen. looks like i will be waiting another few years...
>>735819056My country thinks it exists somewhere off the US coast so we keep antagonizing China and not in bumfuck middle of nowhere south of Asia.
>>735819492It's funny how grok stopped offering free image generation overnight the other day with zero warning
>>735816717The Marathon Tax
>>735818134I'd vote for trump again over a jeeta.
>>735819489Do you think Trump is responsible for a Japanese company raising console prices in Europe?
>>735819592kek
>>735819489Actually yes, gas prices are going up worldwide. It IS the fault of orange man though.
>>735816717All of this is happening so that we can generate videos of cats playing the banjo.
>>735819650Yes, you retard.
>>735819650Do you think the oil and gas shock from the Iran war only targets the US? I wish it would.
>>735816991
>>735817823wat? a ps5 pro is only a ryzen 3600/3700, 16gb ram and a 7700xt. not even close to $1000.
>almost a thousand dollars>no gamesPFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFT!!!
>>735817090Its called "skimming". Again im the only educated adult on /v/.
>>735816717It's absolute fucking karma isn't it?The sonyfags were shitposting about Nintendo acting like they increased the price for Yoshi and then this happens.
>>735819267It still is. Saving on game prices and no online fee goes a long way over the years.
>>735819771>Iran being bombed is why Sony is raising the price of the PS5bro listen to yourself
>>735817506ong voted for him the first time. can't wait for him to be impeached.
>>735816717>Bu bu but Nintendo is the anti consumer one!?!?
>>735819650Yes that’s literally what the tariffs are doing.
>>735819879>Nintendo will never raise the price of the switch 2 trust me
>>735819879At least Sony games go on saleNintendo still wants you to pay full price for 10 year old games
>>735819423>anyone that doesn't like trump is now a third worlderwhere did this magat cope come from?
>>735819959Switch 2 price increase is coming, zero question. Best to get one now if you want one
>>735819978>At least Sony games go on saleNot with that dynamic pricing they won't.
>>735819912Check how much fuel costs now compared to a month ago. Besides this price rise is due to AI and tariffs, not Iran.
>>735819027openai is stuffed with chinks. no mutts or jeets
>>735816717It’s funny how being an early adopter has now been the smart thing to do with this generation. Shows how backwards the global economy is right now. No regrets buying my series x and switch 2 day one. Any Sony nigger paying this much for any of the models is goy cattle deserving of having their wallet fleeced.
>>735816717>900 fucking dollars for a console without the disc drive What the fuck are they planning on doing for the PS6?
>>735819912Not him, but Iran getting bombed certainly isn't going to lower prices.
>>735820017It's very unlikely that they're going to increase the price any time soon given they have parts contracts that last several years and the tarrifs are gone.Sony is increasing their prices now because their contracts are about to run out.
>>735819750no its white mans burden they are trying to make brownoids and women equivalent to white men, if ai succeeds hey can officially eradicate every white man as ai would bring up the value of a brownoid
>Component prices won´t impact on console´s price!!!Hey, at least you got games.... nvm.
>>735816717WEWLADS
>>735820094>due to AI and tariffsweird how the price is going up the exact same amount in Japan and Europe too
>>735818760Not gonna stop until tards let the tech industry collapse by the way
>>735819991Nobody cares what browns or Eurofags think desu
>>735820158RAM and storage is fucked worldwide. It's not a US only issue.
>>735817751Hopefully, if the PS6 is a 1000 dollar plus digital only console they deserve to go under
>>735820116Patriots are in controlShort term pain for long term gain
>>735820051>punished for being loyal basedcattlesConsoles fags would still defend it, even if those companies would spit in their fucking mouths.
>>735818721Nice. My wife sold me her boyfriend's Switch 2 for $200.
>>735816991>>735819793
>>735816717So once this RAM situation is settled they’ll lower the price again, right?
>>735817090Kikery
>>735820207Yes, we know you only care about Israel
>>735820120Dude, they are gonna increase it if they can think they can get away with it. And, opposite of the competition, they rely on exclusives, so either bend over, or dont play the games.
>>735816717>look up used ps5 prices in my area>$200 with a shitload of gamesThis shits been out for 7? years. The fuck do you mean you're charging $650?
It's now $200 cheaper to get a switch 2. Nintendo won.
>>735816847>He doesn't knowfixed, lmao
>>735820051>gifI'll kindly ask you not to use my wife for shitposting, thanks.
>>735820208So what does a RAM shortage have to do with Trump? That's the fucking argument. You can't blame tariffs, you can't blame Iran, all that's realistic is the prices of parts like RAM, which nobody has any real control over.
>>735820268Dude's got jokes.
>>735820268lol, lmao even
>>735816717That PSSR tech must not come cheap.
>>735820156Truly the five hundred and ninety nine US dollars of this generation
>>735819609This. At least my country is just ran by a kike sucking pedophile (so nothing has changed) instead of waking up knowing that not only is a foid, but an indian foid is running the country.
>>735816717>portalHuh they still sell that?
>>735820268>major debt from aie sloppa and still hasn't generated any profit >expecting prices to lower despite thatHAHAHHAHAH
>>735820234the la li lu le lo??!?!
>>735820268No, you idiot. Maybe 20 years from now you can buy one secondhand for 400
>>735816717Is there even a point of having consoles?I have a PC that's weaker than a base PS5 but with modding and bullshit workarounds I can play any game at 1080p with 60fps.And I can enjoy game with mods.
>>735820234You can't just flip that switch
>>735816717I’m just getting the steam machine at this point. Probably more bang for my buck.
>>735817068You for forgot +$20 for the stand(required to not have the liquid metal fuck up)
>>735817958That's something he did. >>735818357That's something you hallucinated based on a headline you didn't understand.
are American prices with or without taxes?
>>735820246>Consoles fags would still defend itI've already seen them defend "dynamic" pricing lol. Sometimes they make it too easy to mock them. Kinda takes the sport of out it
>>735820442Bro the steam machine won't be cheap either. They've deliberately not shown the price up to now.
>>735817506Boots on the ground after market closer today 100%
>>735820502Without. States have different sales taxes.
>>735820442maybe when the speculated price was around $1k. But now that's probably gone way up unless Valve sells at a loss.
>>735820502Without lmao
>>735820234>long term gaingain of what?
>>735820341I didn't blame Trump for AI. I blamed him for Iran (for fuel prices going up), nothing to do with Sony. The tariffs he put on required Sony to raise the prices worldwide to offset the damage. If only you didn't put a toddler in charge.
>>735820515I guess I’ll just continue rotting my brain with short form content on my phone then.
>>735820327What happened
>>735820553Israel's gain
>>735820553Greater Israel
>B-but Biden
>>735820553
>>735820596>>735820598Why do Americans insist on voting for parties that do whatever Israel says? This applies to both parties.
I mean, I get why this thread devolved into /pol/shit, but it's still annoying.
>>735820551>>735820539wow. My condolences to Ameriguys in expensive states
>>735819650>Trump is responsible for a Japanese company raising console prices in Europehttps://www.nippon.com/en/japan-data/h02718/>Japan relies on fossil fuels for around 80% of its energy needs. Of particular importance is oil. Statistics from the Agency for Natural Resources and Energy show that in fiscal 2024, oil accounted for 34.8% of the primary energy consumed in Japan, followed by coal at 24.4% and liquefied and other forms of natural gas at 20.8%. >Japan imports more than 95% of its oil from the Middle East, with the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia each providing 40% of Japan’s total imports.Everything from Japan is absolutely fucked. The PS5 isn't a japanese product as it's fabricated in Taiwan and manufactured in either Malaysia or mainland China, but Sony might still want to go full scorched earth from not dying at home.
>>735820315>he thinks the switch 2 won't get a price increase toothe entire industry is fucked
>>735820708you live on a /pol/ website since the 2016 invasion
>>7358207812 more weeks
>>735820767It's fine. it's fine.
>>735820309>if they can think they can get away with it.Which is another thing, Nintendo is the single most publicly scrutinised company because they won't play ball with the journalists, it's why they try to paint them as evil for basic copyright defence that everyone does, we know that, they know that, they aren't going to increase prices because they know it'll lead to more public backlash than anyone else.That's also why they increased accessory prices and switch 1 prices but not switch 2 prices when the tariffs hit.
>>735820689You need money to run political campaigns to get votes from the average votercattle and the Israel aligned rich jews have a very organized lobbying network so they lobby just about every politician.Also we are stuck with the 2 party system, no 3rd parties allowed.
>>735820835oh right, i forgot the electronics fairy brings nintendo all their storage, circuit boards and ram for free.
>>735820708/pol/ has changed over the past few yearsthe whole board no longer feels like their trump general
>>735816717I voted for this
>>735820332Unfortunately for you telling the truth isn't shitposting.
White collar crimes really should be a capital offense, bring back the guillotine for every techbro in silicon valley.
>>735820781>b.b.b.b.BUT NINTENDOdude you did that last week and Karma got us in this thread. You want Sony to announce $120 games next Monday or something?
>>735817738Fuck I miss menthol cigs. Only bad thing eu has ever done.
>>735820776>Japan relies on fossil fuels for around 80% of its energy needs.I thought they got most of their energy from their nuclear plants.
>>735820835Didn't Nintendo just report that the Switch 2 underperforned over Christmas in the west. The price is definitely going up. If you want one, buy it now. There's no way it's dropping.
are there even any games on ps5? It has been out for years and its library is tiny, why the fuck would you pay $900 for one?
>>735820689read up on these guyshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_Federations_of_North_Americathey run shit like AIPAC etc.
>>735820896>oh right, i forgot the electronics fairy brings nintendo all their storage, circuit boards and ram for free.Who the fuck told you Nintendo's component acquisition secrets?
It's incredible how fucked everything is.
>>735820585Google announced a compression algorithm that reduces AI usage of ram by like 6 times, and nvidia stocks are falling
>>735820689Because we’re genuine cattle. The biggest form of resistance we’re showing currently is waving a bunch of signs this Saturday.
It's funny how whenever nintendo does something seen as "anti consumer", some actually anti consumer by another company usually pops up a bit later without fail.
>>735820950this ps5 price increase was predicted months ago after we saw the state of the pc market. everyone is predicting a switch 2 price increase too for the same reason.
>>735820895>>735821005Don’t forget heritage foundation actively enshittifying this country as well
>>735821038>he thins a compression algo means they'll choose to buy less ram and not that they'll still buy as much but use more computationally demanding modelslollmao
>>735821048the switch 2 will get a price increase but the fact that sony did it first is hilarious
>>735820972no electrical cars in Japan

>>735821114instead they prefer hybrids and 500cc kei cars
>>735820913Is it because they learned Epstein is the reason they exist?
>>735821091that's wrong. Sony has a large stock of unsold system in advance and could wait for a good year before really needing to incease their prices. nintendo also states their contracts ensures prices for at least another few months before reevaluation.Sony is actin on greed right now, they would have been fine for months
>>735821113it literally won't because that would kill all momentum.
I remember sony fanboys saying sony is immune to these price increases
>>735820972call it the Fukushima effect
>>735816717>>PS5 – $649.99aren't console supposed to be cheaper to produce as time goes on?
>>735820896>>735820976Nintendo had the opportunity to increase the cost of the switch 2 but they increased the price of accessories instead.
>>735817738Are you using windows vista?
>>735821306That was due to tariffs before everything else happened.

>>735820553Isreal, for fuck sake they are outright saying it. Its why everyone is scratching their heads>wait, the right wing position is now "die for Isreal to own the libs"?>Its a short term hurt to us for a long term gain, for Isreal They run all these campaigns now that Isreal is basically Americas only real ally, fuck their ancestral homelands, Isreal calls, America answers.Even the right wing talking heads are choking on this shit now. Seeing people like Razorfist, Asmongold and even Metokur flipping to loving Isreal and defending them just becuase Trump is their guy is fucking bizaree, its the thing that made me realize that politics is gay and Ive walked away from it. People this deep into it will just agree with whatever "their team" is doing simply because its their team doing it. We saw this shit with Bush and people made fun of them, then decades later, they shrug and say "well i was never in agreement with him on X, Y and Z" when they were so deep on it that when you talked to them you werent talking to a person, you were talking to an outline of them that spoke only of toeing the line.Politics and people invested in it are fucking gaaaaaay.
what is this the 3rd price increase this fucking thing has had?
>>735816717Who cares, you had 5 years to buy one now pay the goy tax
>>735821306and the switch 1
>>735817506So will trannies finally be hunted down and institutionalized once dems lose again in 2028?
>>735821338They had every right to just increase costs. They are avoiding increasing the price of the console as much as possible.
how much does the PS5/PS5pro cost in Japan? I remember them having hilariously fucky prices
>>735819650>most intelligent amerikunt
>cheapest PS5 is almost double the cost of a Switch 2Is this really the smartest move when the market is gradually favoring less graphically-intensive games?
>>735821369It's sad isn't it. They increased it once for no reason, the second time they had the tariffs as an excuse and now they have a third price increase for literally zero reason once more.
>>735821446the PS5 is the only way to play GTA6
>>735817506>All the retarded MIGAs getting mad at the truthHope you guys are enjoying increased prices for everything.
>>735821230the price of plastic(made w/ oil) and the oil used to transport these products just shot through the roof due to the war in iran and both sides blowing up oil fields for shits and giggles, plus the strait of hormuz being blocked. sony said 2 months ago they were looking for ways not to increase the price of the ps5 but clearly that did not pan out for them due to how fucked everything is right now. so weird to see people with 0 geopolitical and supply chain knowledge to pretend they have any idea what they're talking about to console war.

>>735821471That's a decent point. I wonder how Rockstar feels about this news. Charging a nonstandard price for GTA seems less feasible when people are expected to pay an extra $150 for a PS5 now.

>>735823037why? I'm not a snoy and I already have a decent PC and a Switch 2
Why the fuck do people keep comparing the switch 2 with the ps5? Their player base are completely different. Switch has their games that they only have and the ps5 has the yearly normalfag games
>>735822925Yeah a PC from a decade ago from some dude on ebay/fb marketplace.
>>735822275Thats makes sense actually. Its like when people promote communism. Most people who have out of norm views only have them because they have never been face to face with the foundation of them in reality. Hinduism on the face of it sounds profound, its the belief of reincarnation so you treat things well so you dont come back as something like a slaughter animal, then you go to India and its people swilling shit water becuase they think theyre absorbing other peoples energy so theyll come back in the next life as a god, a god that other people want to eat the shit and piss from.
>>735816717Just build a midrange PC at this point
>>735823169>lurking around facebook marketplace for local deals on old tools and stuff>see a "ps5 game collection" listing>it's just call of duty and yearly sports gamesThe normalfag video game experience is truly unfathomable to me.
>>735817090>nobody buying consolesConsoles are doing fine numbers wise. The Switch is now the second best selling console ever and the PS5 is doing about as well as PS4 did month by month. The simple fact is the cost to produce (and by extention turn a profit) on consoles is not lowering in the same way it used to in previous gens when hardware was developing at a more rapid rate and wasn't subject to the rise of cost of various parts due to AI companies buying up shit like RAM in bulk.>why are you defending le companyI'm not, this shit sucks, but if you deny the very real scenario causing it then there straight up isn't a conversation to have here. The cost of RAM is absolutely relevant here in the same way it is for why Valve is stalling on the price of the Steam Machine.
>>735823169No. Ultimately, me getting a PS5, a Switch 2, both, or neither, is not my decision. If they release good exclusives I have to get them. If they don't, I'm not getting them.
>>735823251Yeah. Use some of that money to buy a gun and rob a PC parts retailer because even "mid range" PC's are way more expensive.
>>735823445a "midrange" pc is going to have way more power than the ps5 pro and it will be drop in upgradable to ps6 pro level performance
>>73582292532GB of RAM costs that much by itself
>>735816717Only the beginning for all electronics, buddy.
>>735822980Orange man is an adult and can make his own decisions, he has "free will" so to speak.He made the decision to start a war, he is in fact largely at fault.
>>735823342Normies all have shallow interests. They rarely put thought into the media consume. If they see a game that looks familiar, they buy it and play for a couple of hours. Then discard the game for the next dopamine hit.Autists will buy a game and spend dozens of hundreds of hours exploring every corner until they’ve obtained thorough knowledge of the game mechanics. We are the outliers. We are not the average consumer that most games are targeting.
waitfags eternally btfo
>>735816717As much as I want to, I'm not going to laugh at sony for this. The world is going to shit and everything is becoming worse. The $400 console pre-covid almost seems like a dream now.
>>735817506>all the mad repliesKEK rightoids really are fragile
>>735816847I got 32 gigs, a motherboard and a 9800x3d for 1k.
>>735816717Man there's nothing on the Switch 2 I want to play, but I feel I need to get one soon in case the price skyrockets.
>>735817506We are going to kill you btw
Even at $1000, PS5 is a great value for gamers. Snoys should be grateful and say thank you
>>735822925The exact same 16GB DDR4 ram i've bought two years ago for 40 euros now costs 160 and i wish i was kidding.
>>735821038I'm the person who made that thread and I made it very clear that this would only be a 10-20% reduction in demand at most. It will likely take less time to normalize now but you're still looking at 2-3 years. And that was BEFORE Iran blew up the world's supply of helium, necessary for chipmaking.If I had any money to spend (say, $8K...) I'd be buying the dip. This is retarded investors misunderstanding a press release. New RAM supply is still fully bought out with ironclad contracts until like 2028.What it will do primarily is make complex tasks much faster, putting more trannies out of work. AI can self-direct to fix bugs automatically, but the more complicated the overall system the more it gets bogged down. Make that 6x faster and it trivializes large parts of the development pipeline. An operation that might've taken an hour will now take 10 minutes.
>>735817506Technically the people who voted for you did that. From what I understand, raising the prices of electronics affect them about as much as creating a tax for IQ.
>>735823419Youre a VERY tiny minority anon, normalfags don’t care about exclusives. This isn’t the the 2000s any more most games have crossplay
>>735822925Valve has the perfect opportunity to release the steam machine at 750, 800 with controller
You voted for this.

Big oof. Glad I got one two years ago.
>>735824345Blame shit that happened in 2015, like it was already bad but it got even worse. Kind of like someone said you act like a retard real retards will come in thinking they found good company.
>>735824272As I grow older I realize that the majority of people in all situtions are blind cattle foolishly waiting to be led to the pastures or the slaughterhouse. But video games are the exception. For whatever reason, the things people accept in their computers and phones and everywhere else get rejected.
>>735821109Again: it's a context cache (kv-cache) optimization. It does not have any effect on the models themselves.Also the innovation Google announced was only to get out in front of the one Nvidia announced a few days prior. Google's version is inferior by ~2.5x but does not require Nvidia hardware or any legwork to get running. In fact there are already working implementations for llama.cpp, vLLM, and SGLang. Google is trying to offer an alternative that's hardware-agnostic - such as Google's own that they're selling to compete with Nvidia. If/when Nvidia's version is adopted it's up to 20x more efficient than current techniques while Google's is 2.5-6x more efficient than current techniques. Both are essentially the difference between storing a picture as a BMP versus a compressed but near-transparent format. Google's version is like a 99% quality JPEG while Nvidia's is like JPEG-XL. More complicated to deploy but far superior results, but both are a huge leap over BMP.

>>735816717>$900 for a pro console>just to be stuck in Sony's ecosystem>just to have to pay constantly rising prices for online>can only hope that devs actually make good use of the more powerful pro hardware for it to have any valueWe're actually back to PS3 launch in that it just doesn't make any sense.
>>735821365>They run all these campaigns now that Isreal is basically Americas only real allyThat's true thoughOur only real allies are Israel and Japan at this point, all of Europe is compromised
I think Nintendo will hold on Switch 2 price. Makes more sense than to increase the price of NSO since it’s only 20 or 50 dollars currently. If they do hold I would think the he Switch 2 will sell well for the rest of the year because the competition have price themselves out for consumers.

>>735825912No. They’ll buy Switches.

I cannot wait for the PS6 to launch at $1200, and that'll be the shitty digital version. The real console will cost $1400 plus tax plus tip.
>>735825912Nintendo is going to win by doing nothing. Xbox is already a zombie of a brand.
>>735825975>Is there any gaming company more cartoonishly jewish than Snoy?uh, yes? we are presently in a period where the only Nintendo console option available is non-OLED specifically so they can sell the OLED model to retards next year

>>735823972>DDR4>ram that outdates the PS4bro thats not a good thing
>>735825912Depends what kind of experience people want. There seems to be a lot of people who want a gaming PC but are daunted by the idea of setting it up and configuring it. But a console which doubles up as a PC satisfies that niche. Steam machine included. I think it's a genius move by xbox desu.
Videogame industry won't be here in 10 years if this keeps up. Companies have to raise the price of a product that no one is buying anymore just because the cost of the hardware is too much. They know its bad but still have to do it because of the bottom line

>>735826063Nice try Snoytranny, but there's zero chance the Switch 2 OLED (if it exists) will be even close to the $1100 Snoy price tag. Not to mention they just started LOWERING the cost of digital games, something every company should've been doing since day 1. I don't know who took over Snoy after the former CEO got outted as a gay pedophile, but I'm guessing his name is Vile Shlomo Shekelbergsteinwitz.

>>735826548By raising, do you mean matching the already established $70 price point that Snoy popularized a year or two earlier?> Since at least 2020, companies like Sony have made it clear that, moving forward, game prices would be going up from $60 to $70.I bet you the Snoy executives were so angry they didn't think to charge people to use their own internet before Xbox came up with it. They adopted it immediately, of course, but think of all the extra shekels they would've had if they pioneered it.

>>735817941Daaaamn, and the library was insane. How far we've fallen. At least my Switch 2 was worth the price.
Snoy bros... I thought only Nintendo jacked up prices..
Just stop buying until theyre forced to stop over charging.How is this difficult??
Will this kill the industry?
>>735826980>handheld games used to be $40, not $60. $60 for switch 1 games was already an enormous hikeNobody cares
>>735816717It think 900 bucks is a fair price considering how much money you save on games when you get a PS5
>>735827105Hey, I'm just happy you admit it's okay when nintendo does it
>>735826727They can, but they just doublethink into blaming Biden or claiming it's a good thing or "short term pain long term gain" or whatever Fox News tells them to think that day. I unironically saw a migger say $6.50 gas prices are fine because it happened once under Biden (despite Trump boasting he will lower gas).
>>735816717>inflation goes up>prices go upshouldn't prices go down? why do companies think it is up to us to make their profits continue to be sky high? take one for the team faggots and stop raising prices.who cares faggot console players will still buy it anyways
>>735826923Controlled explosions that make a thing spin.Everything is about the spinning.
>>735826980I think that would be clearly because these are console games and always have been since the Switch started. Wait, no, actually you're right. BOTW is the same game as ALBW.
everyone who bought the fucking switch 2 for 500 dollars enabled this btw
>>735827259BOTW got a price hike when it was ported to switch 2 btw

>>735827371They added stuff btw. You can argue that it doesn't justify the price but it's at least upgraded, sweetie.
During record "profits" btw
>>735827371desu the framerate and HDR are worth it.
>>735827346>b-b-but NintendoCry more, cockroach.
>>735827498I've got great news about the $70 ps5 games you're mad about then
>>735816717I mean a good PC now costs thousands more. This was inevitable my man, and if you’re laughing like you didn’t understand the memory shortage was going to make life more expensive that just means you’re slow. Console remains a more economical choice for the next few years, and this is going to impact a ton of different technologies in the age of smart devices. Console gaming is more expensive, PC gaming is more expensive, life is more expensive. Bit slow on the full picture, eh?
>>735821657>not buying android chink $300 phone every 3-4 years
>>735827371$9 is worth it just to play that piece of shit at 60 fps.
>>735824381I did this by doing nothing
>>735827558But I'm not mad about PS5?
>>735817090The Movie Theater Maneuver
>memory pricing>oil and gas prices effecting energy prices, shipping prices and plastic productionIt's only going to get worse.
Lmao I got my pro at launch. And bitches were whining when its the best device. Enjoy paying 300 more. Bro my pro cheaper then the base now lmao
>>735827560>consoles>economicalEnjoy your online sub, dynamic pricing, and N0 games, goycattle.
>>735827560Pay out the ass for a PS5 now and then again in a few years for a PS6, all while having to pay to play online, OR just spend more now and get a god tier PC rig that crushes both consoles into dust and has cheap games with free online. You would literally save money in the long run at this point just getting a PC. Consoles no longer make sense at this price point, its fucking 6 year old tech.
>>735816991....games?
>>735827754you can sell that dust collector for mad cash once the ps6 comes out.
>>735822608"Trooned and woketards" are still winning, producing all of the content you consume, and generally controlling your daily life. The only difference is you're paying twice as much for everything now.
switch 2 uses slower phone ram so its probably going to avoid the worst of it. you can still get slower ddr5 for pretty cheap
>>735827753>free PS5s if you enlist and fight for Israel*PS Plus not included
>just build a pc lolit is literally impossible for me to afford anything I'm only alive and not starving because my dad debtmaxxes credit cards and gets social security from the government
>>735816743>>735816717>PortalWheww. I purchased one excelent condition for $159 literally days before this.
>>735827246they go up because they reflect the same metric, the purchasing power of the us dollar (or whatever shitty currency you use). if prices decreased that would be deflation and would mean the purchasing power of the dollar is increasing.
Console fags eating shit. PC is only a bad time of you're poor.
Sony following the lead of microsoft as usual. Only thing left now is them releasing all exclusives on PC without the stupid delay they used to do for it (such as via a shitty sony launcher).
>>735816717Tell us, anon, how much did it cost to build your PC?
>>735817913>supply chain at Hormuzthat was done by Iran in their continued attack on the gulf states you retard.
>>735828147>scalper amazon prices>fucking 4tb ssdyou are retarded, you can get a 1tb nvme and 32gb ram right now off newegg for 450. yes its more expensive than it was but its not like its literal unobtanium like you fags make it out to be
>>735828284It's a shame a lot of them got PS5 for cheap earlier. But they still get fucked by PS+. etc.
>>735828147if you live in a first world country and this is a huge financial hit for you, the problem is you bro.
>>735828490And who attacked Iran?
>>735828147>console faggot doesn't know anything about tech as usualnot fucking surprised
>>735828147Sorry but you’ve been priced out
>>735828520Just don't buy ps+.
>>735816717My used ebay 3080 12gb and aliexpress 5700x3d was $380 total. Gaming is too expensive without deal hunting
>>735816991You guys are not as funny as you think you are
>>735827839I already have a pro and a portal, so I’m good. I did miss the window on buying a new PC because mine’s a decade old and I just didn’t get around to it.Fact is nothing has changed, now a PC is that much more expensive, and a PlayStation is that much more expensive, and the idiots trying to pretend this is Sony failing when really we’re all just paying more for anything with memory in it. We all got poorer, my guy. I’m just glad I’m not in the poor university student phase of my life for all this shit.
Still waiting for America to be great again.
>>735828147This wouldn't be an issue if developers knew how to optimize and made games that could work on +5 year old tech. Hell, games are struggling to run on 5090s.
>>735822382These retards really use nu-Kratos for their profile pics lol. He looks so fucking lame no mentioning he's a cuck and most likely a gay too.
>>735828658but you can't play games online without it. unless it's a free game.
Nintendo kneeled to the PS5 pro, they wanted to sell 7 million and cut it down to 3 million. Switch 2 doesnt have legs
>>735828651Gaming isn't a hobby.
>>735828873all of my ps5 games are single playerit's even more of a ripoff on nintendo, nintendo online is awful
900$No pathtracingNo support for higher than 120fps. Most games go no higher than 60fps. Having to pay to play online. Weak CPU. Less than 2 years until PS6 or the next xbox has been launched.
>open vidya thread>discord spam about the "Right wing" (actually just Conservatives, Zionists and NeoCons)Sure.
>>735827810Dude I get that you’re stuck in 2014 or whatever, but take away the shit indie and early access games and console has essentially everything that’s good outside of RTS games these days. Shit I made the leap of PS for some titles for the exclusives and not wanting to wait years for of releases. Do not get me wrong, I loved my PC, but it’s an expensive and not always smooth experience and it’s been a long damn time since I’ve had to trouble shoot an .exe file not working and I don’t miss it. I’ll buy a great PC again in a few years, but man my ps5 has mostly replaced it in the short term. If I want to mod Skyrim or play total war or edit a PDF quotation, cool, my PC is still downstairs. Plus windows 11 is hot garbage and Microsoft is really pushing the ai/always watching shit. No thank you.
>>735828973neither is reading
>>735816717>Pro is literally 7 months of minimun wage in Brazil kek
How much will be the PS6?
>>735828987Yeah, but most people aren't playing solely single player games. They play online shit. the only time a console is cheaper long term than a pc if you don't play online games AT ALL.
>>735828719Facts usually aren't funny.
>>735829216$1999 USD (streaming only)
>>735829013Cool, upgrade your ram. You’ve essentially spent that much. To say nothing of your video card. It’s not meant to be an ultra end PC, it’s just a game console. A great PC is going to cost thousands more than it did just a year ago. Either way, you’re paying more. This isn’t rocket science. Ultimately spend your money in the manner you’ll most enjoy, and hope in the coming years we all HAVE money.

>>735821845>>735821845>>*Including returned and refurbished productsNow I understand how Sony can claim that insane figure. I still don't understand how their investor still have money on this company after so many blunders and deceptions.The moment Sony stocks fall, is going to be a major crash.
the more you cheer for the death of xbox, the more sony will stick their dick in your ass
>>735817506The truth continues to reveal itself out of MAGA's inability to ever admit they might have done something wrong.
>>735829185How much is a high end PC? Or an iPad? Or an iPhone?
>>735829216>2026: you don't even need a PoS5 for anything>caring about the PoS6kyaru...
>>735829403We christians should worship jews and hindus instead
>>735816717I've been trying to sell my PS5 and no one even wants the thingDead console
>>735829224I mainly play f2p and whatever interests me from the Extras catalog ironically I don’t actually use it for online in any games. Guess the first would in a while would be Last Epoch whenever it drops in April as I’m burned out on D4.I’d wager most only go for basic to play CoD/BF and sports ball going by the charts. Either way they need to fix the tiers as trials and cloud streaming are scam shit.
>tfw already got mineRaise it up to 1000$ for all I care
>>735829394I want nothing but success for Xbox and look forward to cheaper GamePass / Netflix bundles
>>735829636What games are you excited to play on your PS5, anon?
>>735829686GTA 6
>>735829750
>>735829527>I’d wager most only go for basic to play CoD/BF and sports ball going by the chartsI mean yeah? Ball and gun gamers make up the vast majority of the market and it's a game designed to be played online as well. The same will happen with gta 6, once it comes out.
>>735829514You are drunk, in sticks or not in the states. They sell quite fast using Craigslist, took longer to unload a Steam Deck Oled for me but I’m close to 2 cities.
>>735829514I've seen people willing to downgrade by selling their PS5s and getting a PS4 instead.
>>735829902THE ABSOLUTE STATE OF PAY
>>735829678I hate microcock but it would be extremely funny if Xbox won hard.
>>735829514give it a few more months and watch people will come like flies. Hell you can probably bag hold it a bit longer and make a profit of 600+ dollars.
>>735829837I’m just so indifferent with GTA, guess I outgrew it or the likes. I liked the one with Niko but played V a bit past the starting bank robbery and car scene and just had zero desire to play more so VI does nothing for me. All I’m looking forward to are Pragmata and Saros atm.
>>735829403Sounds like the liberal doctrine.
>>735829013I already have 64 GiB ddr5 @ 6800 MT/s (manually tuned hynix A-die). RTX 3090 was launched before base PS5 and very much outpetforms the PS5 pro. I bought one for 1100$ when it was close to the 4090 launch so it wasn't even that expensive.
>>735819650Sony isn’t Japanese tho
>>735829339At least on PC you do have the option to upgrade an individual component that is creating a significant bottleneck. PS5 pro is bottlenecked by the weak CPU which is probably a big reason for why its getting no games with pathtracing. When it does do RT at 60 (like in a few titles) it's with very weak RT. And PSSR is still far behind DLSS even with the updated version.
>>735830384Didn't they more their headquarters to california? Seems to have been a pretty bad decision.
>>735820689Because we don't have any politicians that aren't on Israel's payroll. We can only vote for zionist #1 or zionist #2 every single time.

>>735825975>Is there any gaming company more cartoonishly jewish than Snoy?No, sony is the scummiest company on earth and anyone buying their products need to be removed from the gene pool asap
>>735830492Yes hq is in Commiefornia, they’ll never give it back
>>735817506>pmurt putting the final nail in the snoy coffin wtf I love orange man now
>>735816991We don't talk about that here>>735817000Good
>>735830980>1000 dollar steam machine>steam actually has games>no dynamic pricing bull shit>don't have to pay online to play ityeah, I already suspect the ps6 will be 800+ before subs and dynamic pricing. Just get a steam machine at this point....
>>735831317Steam Machine is weak as shit and will be overpriced for its specs because it’s a ‘ pc ‘ lol. A very weak one but on par with what many Steam players have going by the hardware surveys but given how they can’t even supply their handhelds this thing will have limited production too
