That's just the version without a disk drive too, I imagine if they release one with it's an extra $200

in 2024 unless you plan on reselling your discs - an optical drive is more of a hindrance than anything at least

 

[Comrade Khan]

gonna need to dowload 200 gigs of game regardless if you have disk or not so it's just pointless imo these days (outside of reselling ofc)

Also like I said in the chatbox, they raised the price of their already existing controllers for seemingly no reason.

outrage aside, it does have some pretty nice specs

It was a big thing for me for the Blu-Ray drive for movies, not games. I still got PWG tapes and a film friends that has a ton of physical media lol

xbox needs to step it up so they actually have decent competition and can’t get away with stuff like this.

totally fair - you could get a blue ray player for like 20 bucks these days on marketplace im sure though if it was an absolute necessity.

The pro with the disc drive is about $810. No thanks.

they won't imo - microsoft seems intent on selling content over consoles

 

[Comrade Khan]

Mine! Jk but honestly if you have a good pc i don’t think there’s any game on either system that ISN’T coming out for PC

So the PS5 pro is just a PS5 with AI upscaling and digital-only (meaning they can take it away from you whenever they want)? Trash
