My comment was about the disc drive costing £99.99 (which is $120). Yeah it came with a stand that works in both, you put it in the middle and it hooks on the back.
A horizontal stand will be included with the new PS5 model. Also a new Vertical Stand compatible with all PS5 models will be sold separately at 29.99 USD | 29.99 EURO | 24.99 GBP | 3,980 JPY.
What are you talking about? I have taken mine apart to clean it and it still runs fine. You're acting like it's made from scraps.

It was always ugly. Ugliest console by far.

200gb for free, not bad Sony, unlike ms, but even if they are then better ms, they are still shitty, with price increases and the lack of investment in new AAA single player games.
$50 price increase for DE edition in the us only makes no sense, must be a typo right?

Wow, this thread is really divided on whether or not they love or hate this design.
I guess I get to be Switzerland and say that both designs are just okay.

You have the latest fat revision ?
I am looking for taht topic and I can't find it now. Apparently on the latest ps5 revisions, the heatsink is glued and gets loose or something

About $1500 for a new launch PS3. Too bad they are ticking time bombs. I have one, I still love it. I will also treasure my launch PS5 but overall it's not really worth it to stock up on launch consoles, a launch PS1/2/4 aren't really that sought after so it's just the 3 that gained value

What about his game leaks? They seem reliable too from what I remember he has said

GerAlt-Right. Ciriously.
Ok, I point taken, but that doesn't make the Pro release less likely considering we have specs and such.

Because maybe the info he received is incorrect. I'm not saying Tom Henderson himself is wrong.
Sony doesnt need a Pro to compete with Xbox.
Sony also doesnt need extra power to boost VR-performance, as was the case last-gen.
Pro-market is relatively small.
They also stated late last-gen that a Pro-version won't be standard each gen and MS isn't planning one (unless it's, some secret they didn’t share with court).
There is little reason to releass a Pro.

I don't really recall much of his game leaks especially very far out like his hardware leaks are.

One of the first things that caught my eye as well. Smart move by Sony to push new customers to the disc version and ensuring that physical games continue to thrive on the platform.

And made the DE $50 more. It’s actually kinda insane. I didn’t expect that at all.

I tried telling people, Sony is pushing for high margins here.
We'll probably see some level of reverse between the availability of the DE vs Standard sku going forward. As they'll make more money selling people the add-on separately.
+50
+80
Then the vertical stand
+30
And then plates
+60
Overall on top of the 400 digital sku that they didn't want to sell people, they can now make $620 and that's before bundling in a game...

They technically did call it that in the announcement video.
That said, they never called the revised models officially "Slim" though.

Probably because it's still over 14 inches tall and over 3 inches thick for the digital. It's not exactly svelte.
I do hope it's easier to travel with.

I hope it's only quieter than any revision has been before, and there's no weird regressions for getting smaller and I heard dumping liquid metal

Remember people laughing at this guy that he 3D printed this thing?

Mental, Sony spit roasting European costumers.
I got mine replaced so I'm pretty sure it's a recent one. Are people forgetting to replace screws or something? Being glued on sounds so weird. I saw a guy post the link so I'll check it out.
Nintendo is doing great in Europe, the issue is Sony doesn't seem to care about how Nintendo is doing, their competitive responses and analyses all seem to be centred around Xbox and only Xbox (look at how Sony treats Japan where they have been curb stomped into irrelevance by Nintendo... but are still doing better than Xbox).
This is why I hope the Switch 2 is in PS5 ballpark so Sony is forced to pay attention.

Yeah, I was one of them. Guess he was right all along.

This is the new PlayStation division. They are attempting to emulate Apple whether directly or indirectly (or just the rest of Sony). Gone are the days of selling hardware at a loss. J. Ryan made sure to take advantage of Playstations Marketing position. At this rate, regardless of all the issues, Sony will do whatever it takes to increase profits on the backs of gamers because they are eating it up...inflation be damned.
Unfortunately, there really isnt anything tangible that would justify the increases to the consumer. That Sony Core video shit they have is essentially the damn media store they used to have. Maybe...maybe im missing some value added benefit...idk.

Ill be honest i had overheating issues when it stood vertically and have not had an issue since i put it on its side. It was def an issue.
Clickbait - Keeping your PS5 vertical might cause some issues, as reported by some users, with specific faults. Sometimes.
Imagine having such a channel tho. Tough beard avatar..Xbox and green as If you're grooming 9 year old xbox fans... I just... cant type... it's to much.. is this real...www.neogaf.com

What's sad is that we got more content and actual pics of the unit months before Sony even announce anything today with a digital render and not an actual unit.
Also. Glossy again you fucking retards ?
PS3 and PS4 never taught you anything about the fact your system look like shit Nd scratched to hell and ugly as fuck after couple of weeks ?
The word retards to the designing team doesn't even cut it.

let me know if you find something out.
I might want to buy new FAT just to stock up on fat before they are out of market

That's because Sony has a near monopoly in Europe
And forgo selling additional plates for 60 USD?
600 dollar minimum

No Pro? No buy. Give me the option to upgrade to a Pro then we are talking.

Team real from the start, matched up the other image we saw and was produced too quickly after to be a fake

Smart move giving people the disc option for digital. Last time I checked digital version is selling way less. Also, that could opens cheap options on Aliexpress etc.

They'd be nuts to lose the expansion slot. Especially after upping it in the latest Firmware.
