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.

Man, trading in my PS4 PRO at Best Buy at the beginning of the year was really the right move.

They have another damn price increase, even after the Tariffs got voided... Now it's just corporate profit daring gamers not to blink
A corporation's primary legal and ethical duty is to maximize profits for the shareholders who own it. If they didn't, people would not invest in the company, and R&D would suck.

My guess is $800. Steam can eat at least some costs since they'll make back some with the Steam Store.

Check your local Target via webpage or app. You may get lucky with a free 360 trail and they will deliver within 2 hrs.

Also they allow you to split payments betwwen 2 cards if thats takes away some of the hit.

Sure, corporations will try to maximize profits, but it's the buyer's responsibility to keep them in check with their wallets and news/media/platforms when we think it's outrageous.

Have fun paying $700+ to play games at worse-than-PS5 quality on a 4K TV in 2027 (and beyond)

Valve had the right idea with the Steam Machine, they really did - but they completely and utterly screwed the pooch with those specs. It maybe would have been "ok" 5 years ago for $500. In 2026 and beyond? Lol.

PS6 and especially Xbox Helix are gonna make the Steam Machine irrelevant (well...even more irrelevant) once they launch next holiday.

Not an everyday gamer, so my PS4 backlog is huge. Guess I'll be waiting for the PS6.

This would be the perfect time for Microsoft to make a comeback with the Xbox series s/x.
