800€ in Europe, that's a hard NO. Plus devs will still target the PS5 for optimising their games. This release was completely unnecessary.
The only reason why it exists is perhaps to try to normalise the higher prices for the PS 6.
Almost double the price for a bit nicer raytracing, 2TB and higher framerates in the very few games that don’t support at least 60fps is a very hefty asking price.
For 900€ you can get a pretty good gaming PC. If you buy some parts used, you can even get a really good rig for that price. You might just need to wait a few years until the latest sony exclusives make it to PC eventually.
That’s what I thought too. They test the waters for a much higher price point. I’m not buying it, if they price the PS6 above 500€ with a disc drive I say goodbye to console gaming.
