The real deals here are the PlayStation Fortnite bundles which are $100 less than other pricing and $200 less than they'll be on the 2nd. Wanted to make the thread so anyone on the fence about purchasing had time to before the price increases next week.

This will kill the industry. No one will be able to afford these prices to game.

Quote from Illusory_walls :
People would've had one already if they wanted one. They're not going to sell. I say this as someone who's owned every generation of them.
Usually by now the price would've been cut at least $100, $500 is a stretch for a lot of people. Remember PS3? Started at $600 then dropped to $250 when the sales exploded.

If you haven't gotten a ps5 by now you didn't want one in the first place
Or maybe they were waiting for a price drop as has typically happened with consoles.

Really I just bought one and had no idea of the incoming price hike. I cannot wait to see what the PS6 is gonna cost. Winning
I wouldnt be surprised if its delayed, cost of materials would be way too high.

Anyone know anything about this region restricted PS Store gift card? Can a VPN be used to purchase with the discounted gift card?

The price increase sucks, but these are still a lot cheaper than a new phone and (some) people go out and upgrade those every year for very little advantage. At least when you buy a console, you know you are good for 5-8 years.

Maybe for yourself, but there are parents and grandparents whose children/grandchildren are reaching that age.
Some people don't understand the concept of (very many) new people coming into an age class continuously 😅
