Speaking of GTA 6, are you guys worried about the PS5 price?

I'm worried about the PS5 that it would be expensive as heck like 600 dollars, I hope that's not true because if it is then this sucks.. even the console according to rumours said that it is a strong console so 600 dollars seems more likely for PS5.. I hope not.. so do you think PS5 is going to be expensive as heck?

I don't care for the price since i won't buy it. PC is the only platform i play on

You gotta make a choice, more performance=equals more cost but also better looking/better games in general or less performance=cost less but not up to standards in terms of graphics and games that have to cut some features/things to run properly. Make your choice. Also 500€ for a more than 5 years investment is great. It's basically 100€ a year

Take into account that by the time the game releases, next-gen consoles would likely have seen improved/optimized models with lower price (think -$100).

PS5 will be $500 tops. Consoles would never be expensive, history already showed how this ends. Actually, hardware-selling-wise, consoles bring losses for Sony and MS. It's the games that make money. Same with printers and ink. Yout pay the money for the printer when you are buying ink, that's how the market works like. Console makers are not stupid, they wouldn't make consoles that would be too expensive for people.

500 sounds like a decent price. Especially if you trade in your current console towards it.

The output of the PlayStation 5 will effortlessly match the power that “Grand Theft Auto: VI” unleashes on screens and eyes en masse...

Not so much considering SSD prices has being lowered, I can expect the console to be at the same price as PS4/Xbone when came out

Paid £850 for my PC 2 and a half years ago, and it was worth every penny. 

 

I converted because I wanted more control for myself, adding an extra touch of responsibility that consoles are lacking.

 

Examples are, downloading content from websites (like ISO files for emulators), mods to enhance gameplay, and a gaming service with regularly discounted games. 

 

While consoles get the games earlier, it allows more time for me to decide whether the purchase for PC will be worth the wait.

I see this train of though pop up a lot, online. So many people forget that we're still 15 months away from the PS5 release. So you have 15 months to start saving. Besides, GTA 6 won't be a day one release. Even IF it came out 12 months later, you've still got 27 months to save for a PS5 and GTA 6. Not even taking into account possible sales and/or price reductions by the time GTA 6 finally releases. 

 

This is only a problem for those who are worried about the future, but here and now. Which doesn't make any sense. It's like being upset that it is raining today and it might ruin your day out next month.

we literally don't have any idea when GTA VI is actually going to come out. chances are pretty slim it's going to be a launch day title, and the first trailer for GTA V came out a full two years before the game did. I find it pretty hard to believe that the PS5 won't get a price cut or at least a sale within that time if GTA VI follows the same pattern

Definitely not, I would say expect 499€/499$ or 549€/549$ price when it releases. PS4 cost 399$ at launch and it was pretty weak performance wise while still being sold at a little loss. Inflation is also not a myth, 399$ will be like 450$ in 2020. I'm not worried when it comes to PS5 price, 500 or even 600$ is not really much for ~8 years of gaming, it's like 6$ per month, cheaper than let's say Netflix.

Since like the end of 2018 it was pretty obvious that PS5 will hit the stores by the Holiday 2020 so you would have 2 years to save the money if you would like to buy the console before Christmas 2020, now you still have 15 months. I will say more, GTA VI will not come out before Fall 2022 so you still have 3,5 years.

That would be around £499 Pound Sterling Inc 20% tax I would hope, trade in my PS3 and PS4 so say just over £420, then if I get £100 towards it for Christmas, humm I might hold off buying the first batch just to make sure any bugs are ironed out.

Damn f*cking right I am. I just bought a PS4 pro last year. The PS5 better be around that level or cheaper if its 500 bucks or more I'm not gonna get it. $400 is reasonable.

 

The main thing for me is backwards compatibility. If I can play all my PS4 games on there with no issues. I'll go out and buy one immediately.

The last PS product I have is a PS2. If it could play PS2 BC games out the disc, no downloads, automatic purchase no questions asked. Now the price, well I can guarantee you that is 500 plus tax USD. No ifs or buts. Thats how its always been.

I will pay whatever it takes since, unless they announce single player expansions for it, I will sell the console and the game 1 year later.

 

 

They could also make a proper online mode, right? One can only dream.

A one of cost is fine but there has to be a cap. 

Especially as a year after launch there will be the ps5 S or something. If ps5 is 500, then a year later they'll release one with a slight improvement that'll cost even more 

 

If a console is gonna be more than 400 then really it should be the only version until the next generation- I.e. the ps6. Really annoyed me how the ps4pro came out and I couldn't afford it haha

The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.

You know you dont HAVE to get the pro right? Lol I never did and it made no difference. Remember gaming is the cheapest hobby ever. Even more than books surprisingly

Memory and space. Depending on how many games you play a base PS4 doesn't have enough room.

You mean Hard drive space? You can just get an external one. I have 2 for my xbox, one being an SSD (Highly recommend) and one for my PS4 pro. On the pro, I'd recommend that if you have a 4K TV. But at this point, don't bother, PS5 in 14 months.
