@thefourfoldroot1 for families it offers more value and play time on a S and switch to VR, where a game typically lasts a couple of hours..... at a cost of 1k before any games. it will be out of the price range for many with a ps5.
its just not ready for mainstream, it will surpass VR1, probably double the users. until cod/gta/sports type developers get in on it, it will struggle.
god knows why you are blabbering about cars and housing that have no relevance.
@Dezzy70 you can do the same with xbox, for alot longer. of course ps5 will be on the shelf more and more..... supply improving and people have been pretty much buying when its been available. so demand drops naturally.
xbox only managed approx 150k more sales despite being 200 cheaper. outside the USA, Xbox just isnt as popular. until they consistently out sell sony at full price, ps5 will do just fine.
last week you stated series X was selling better than S and flying off the shelves. yet didnt outsell the switch. tbh Black Friday figures show UK buyers are NOT rushing out to buy Xbox.
180/190 (great value) and still easily available everywhere.

Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for December 2022?
@Bu1ld0g so you would pay what 5-10 for RR2?
premium for 400+ more than extra is only around 15 more than extra anyway.
in general i think people expect too much from premium tbh

Re: 'Flawless' New PS5 with Some Devs, Features Detachable Disc Drive
physical/digital is down to consumers.
its our fault we pay 70 for games, people preorder digital games like they gonna sell out. knowing they going to release in a state.
digitalonly is telling companies you are happy to pay more.... to own nothing. fools and money easily parted is the saying no?
GoWR 70 digital.
63 physical, sold for 52.
to name one example recently.

Re: PSVR2 Pre-Orders No Longer Require an Invite
@Bez87 few mth ago Sony said they would have 2mil for launch.
demand was never there for that. so units left after invites
scalpers were never touching it.
Re: PSVR2 Pre-Orders No Longer Require an Invite
4-500 for ps5, 500 for VR = 900+ to play a VR game. that is alot of $$ for something to become mainstream.
ive never mentioned Series X.
you are just changing my words, so i will just leave it here

Re: PSVR2 Pre-Orders No Longer Require an Invite
until VR sorts out AAA gaming it wont mainstream.
50 for games that last 2-8hrs, ontop of 500 for VR and 500 for ps5, is out of reach for many families.
instead of 500 for VR you can get series S AND a switch. offering far better value.
VR will be there around 10yr time
Re: PSVR2 Pre-Orders No Longer Require an Invite
@Jaz007 i think there will be plenty available day1.
its not console level demand

Re: November 2022 NPD: Improved PS5 Stock Pushes Sony to Crucial Holiday Win
@Korgon more likely the fact it was reduced to half price of gow
Re: November 2022 NPD: Improved PS5 Stock Pushes Sony to Crucial Holiday Win
and thats even with the other 2 having Black Friday discount.
so credit where its due
Re: Sonic Fanbase Heartbroken Over The Game Awards Loss
maybe if sonic was released finished etc, it may have won.
its only due to its die hard overlook negative release issues it stood a chance
Re: Reaction: The Game Awards Finally Fulfils Its Potential

Re: Horizon Forbidden West DLC Takes Aloy to the Burning Shores Only on PS5

otherwise why have a ps5 release at all?
Re: The Lords of the Fallen Teases PS5 Gameplay in Moody Trailer

Re: US Government's FTC Will Attempt to Block Microsoft's Activision Buyout
@KaijuKaiser purexbox is similar. not as bad but they dont like anti MS.
pushsquare is good in that regard, criticisms challenged/discussed etc
Re: US Government's FTC Will Attempt to Block Microsoft's Activision Buyout
will go through with concessions, as any large merger has to.
MS will happily give Sony CoD.
CoD isnt even big for MS here (still on GP)
king is what they want, thats where the money is.
Re: Sony Says It's Resolved Long-Term PS5 Stock Shortages
@Dezzy70 its a great little box so far.
biggest complaint is the controller. just feels/sounds cheap.
tried Forza and the right trigger is uncomfy to hold pressed... you can feel the plastic from the case
Re: Sony Says It's Resolved Long-Term PS5 Stock Shortages
@Dezzy70 i never said you didnt have ps credentials.
just like xbox gave me a reason at 190 to give them another chance. they lost it after 2 red ring of death.
Re: Days Gone Director Blames Woke Reviewers, Programmers for Critical Reception
it was a solid 8 nothing amazing, a bit long.
games shouldnt matter if you play as man/woman/alien/straight/gay/green/Black or whatever.
its not real life. so shouldnt have to represent it.
it should be about enjoyment, gameplay escapism. you know the reasons why we game.
if you mark games down for skin/lifestyle differences. then honestly you have much bigger issues in your life.
Re: Sony Says It's Resolved Long-Term PS5 Stock Shortages
@Dezzy70 you can do the same with xbox, for alot longer.
of course ps5 will be on the shelf more and more..... supply improving and people have been pretty much buying when its been available. so demand drops naturally.

Re: Sony Says It's Resolved Long-Term PS5 Stock Shortages
@Dezzy70 talking stock nonsense again i see.

180/190 (great value) and still easily available everywhere.

Re: Brand New The Last of Us HBO Trailer Revealed

Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for December 2022?

Re: Poll: Did You Buy The Callisto Protocol?
when theres a goty edition and patches then yep
Re: The Callisto Protocol (PS5) - Just Like Dead Space, for Better and Worse
@Gelly Callisto is a brand new game. it ISNT dead space 4.
of course gowR will be similar, its a sequel.
Re: The Callisto Protocol (PS5) - Just Like Dead Space, for Better and Worse
@Titntin people who buy something always say its better than it actually is because have to justify the money spent.
Re: The Callisto Protocol (PS5) - Just Like Dead Space, for Better and Worse
krafton built up the hype. gamers believed it and preordered.
game fell flat, with nothing great in there.
until gamers pull back digital preorderers, we will get the same
Re: Free The Callisto Protocol Content Coming to PS5, PS4 in February
so wait 2months for buying it so bugs etc fixed.
or wait for dlc in march..... by then probably price drop too
Re: Monster Hunter Rise Confirmed for PS5, PS4 Release, Out 20th January
thats a great price as mh one of best series out there. but its on gp so Sony will lose out
