It’s wild to see that prices are increasing again.

If it reaches a certain point, it’ll be cheaper to game on pc.

I’ve had my ps5 for almost 2 years, but I’d be perfectly happy to still play on my ps4 with the price increase.

I just bought a PS4. I still use a 4770/1060 PC. These consoles are great if you need a new system because you don't have one. But, covids pricing kinda ruined my passion for new hardware.

This is absolutely insane. I'm in Japan, and with stagnating wages and significant cost of living increases, this will price out a large part of the population. Hell, right after the PS5 was released here shady resellers were pushing it for this price, and now Sony is matching it... I'd laugh, but it's just too damn sad.

Remember when the consoles used to lower their price with the past of the years?
