I agree 100% with everything that you just said on the Sony PlayStation situation but the person that goes and buys a PS five pro for more than the MSRP price they are insane. Why would you pay $3000 or $4000 or more for a gaming console with that kind of money you can build a high-end PC people are just insane.

Right. I have a bunch of the series on PS4 but I didn't get Ryza because it was PS5 enhanced and I've stopped buying JRPGs on PS at that point. If Ryza comes over to Xbox I will grab them all. Just like I will the Pixel Remasters, Lunar Story Remasters and Trials Of Mana.

Echoes of Wisdom only got an 86 on MC? That means it's "trash" right? I mean, Starfield has an 86 on PC & everyone says it's awful, so I'm guessing that means everything 86 or lower is also trash 😅
Starfield is associated with xbox so it is by default considered bad by the online biased gaming media mob. If starfield had a 96 on metacritic it would still be hated on nonstop. If a sony or nintendo game scores in the mid 80's, or even 70's it is considered good but xbox is held to a different standard.
Media has double standards against Xbox. My thing is that Sony doesn’t get much pushback for anti consumer practices like these recent prices. The 30th anniversary console limited or not shouldn’t be $1000. PlayStation for the payers.
@@sonysoyboysaremadeoftears.7404 the way the gaming community talks about days gone, you'd think it's a 90 Metacritic masterpiece. But instead it has a measly 72. If days gone was an Xbox game it's be trashed nonstop. God forbid an Xbox game get a rating in the low 70s. Same goes for Stellar Blade, Ghost of Tsushima, and Rise of the Ronin, all games with lower Meta scores than the majority of recent Xbox games like Starfield
Sony should attempt to mitigate scalpers. It should be in Sony's best interest to sell as many consoles as they can to actual customers who will buy games. They are after software revenue after all. The only way I can see Sony being okay with scalpers, is if they themselves are getting scalping money.
Thing is Sony doesn't care about the console being used to play games. At this point everyone who was going to buy the anniversary console already has bought the ps5 and games on it.
I called it & knew Sony was gonna do some kind of shady prices & deals. They been proving their anti consumer friendly business practice will never ever gonna end. The only thing that Sony can change is speaking with the consumers/casuals wallet is the way to get Sony to listen & be more pro consumer friendly business practice. Until then the PlayStation community player base can expect more worse anti consumer friendly business practice forever.
If they provide a product consumers are clearly able to buy, how are they anticonsumer? It seems that every company is "anticonsumer" when they don't price the products conveniently for the average consumer. Makes no sense when the standard PS5 is still available for purchase.
@@crymsonenigma would u rather pay for upgrade features or get the upgrade features for free which is available for the Xbox gamers. Quick Resume only for single player games not for multiplayer games. Having the option for free upgrades & optimize auto HDR with performance boost for older games through backwards compatibility that Sony is failing to have native backwards compatibility not by some 3rd developers of lacking features for the PlayStation software & how many times will y'all get it that Sony weak security firmware will get hacked that will put the PlayStation gamers account at risk for a 3rd time. At least Microsoft doesn't allow their security firmwares to get hacked so easily like how Sony keeps letting the hackers to hacked into the Sony weak security firmwares if the PS3 & now the PS5 weak security firmwares didn't teach Sony a lesson yet again. If u don't have any proof to Microsoft weak security firmwares then the question is for Sony allowing that to happened 2nd time this console generation. If Sony doesn't learned yet it can happen 3rd time & ask yourself why the PC gamers doesn't want that weak security PSN account as the PC gamers can see it happened that Sony will allow their weak security firmwares to get hacked again.
@ByronXbox4Life that is a lot of words to say absolutely nothing. Who gives a shit about old games?!?! They're old!! I've got a Series X as well, and I've NEVER even fired up an old game. Quick Resume is an ass feature to even mention, given the level of ass that Xbox library is. Who cares that one can quickly resume scarce offerings? Every release from Starfield to Redfall has been great disappointments. I'll stay where the games are and the company pushing towards new options of play.
@@crymsonenigma See that's where u wrong people like me do care about playing old games even quick resume. U might not care about playing old games but the majority of people do care about playing old games that's backwards compatibility with native 4k & 60fps. Do yourself a favor ask around in TH-cam comments besides this comment & see how many people do care about playing old games that get upgraded treatment that 10 to 20 years old not the one's that's out now to 5 or 7 years old. U should think twice because the majority of people do want to play those old games from the PS1 PS2 & PS3 library as well the same goes for both Nintendo & Microsoft. U might like it not but to downplay why playing old games if laughable coming from u.
@@crymsonenigmaYou sound like someone who doesn't know anything about games, hardware/consoles or the current market of Xbox or PS and why they're in the positions they're in, (your just talking for the sake of talking),,, as for old games, many people like them because they can be better than current games or from childhood/(didn't get the chance to play growing up), right now Sony is being anti-consumer by upselling accessories/consoles for big profit from their own fanbase rather than giving a good deal and selling more, it drives people away more than bringing people in, but that loyal fanbase can't see it and defend it, it's not about affordability it's about how it comes across to the majority of people.
The only people celebrating are the scalpers over the ignorance of Sony and it's diehard fans who will spend an almost unlimited price point on a new Sony item. All Sony cares about are console sales numbers, and not who the ones are actually purchasing them. Sony - We sold 12,000 anniversary consoles on preorder in minutes. Ponies - We didn't get a single anniversary console on preorder, so we are having to spend thousands to scalpers to get them.
@votpavel so here's why it's so dumb. That for $700 is dumb for 20 games at launch 🤣🤣. Pc you get all your games upgraded because you buy unlocked games with all settings. Sony are selling higher settings and charging for that...and a console 😂😂. People will buy this bullsht

Suikoden Remasters... Man got to the final battle on II and dropped my disc which then scratched as I picked it up.... Maybe I'll actually try a JRPG again this was one that got e hooked, loved all the secret characters you could grab.
4000$ for Pro excluding shipping... 1000$ sounds like a bargain in Scandinavia for the standard console. I doubt Pro will sell good there since PC Gaming/Gaming Home Computer dominated there for over 40 years ever since Commodore ruled Scandinavia for 10 years.
I'll be honest. HZD is a product of it's time. I've been trying to play it for about a year and get bored within 30 minutes of playing everytime. People who played it when it released probably had a blast since it was fresh and great. However thanks to over saturation of the games genre coming into it I can't help but feel it was overhyped.
Links Awakening had frame rate issues that never affected me playing the game in any major way. So far I am really liking the new game. I just love this art style and the Isometric view.
i wanted to buy the spiderman plates, Sony said "NO! buy it from the scalpers!". I wanted the astrobot controller and sony said "NO! get it from the scalpers". i wanted an anniversary controller because i knew i had no chance of buying anything else from that release and sony said: "NO! buy it from the scalpers!". Dude, i don`t want to buy it from a scalper a a higher price and eventually an opened product or god knows what i get inside the damn box... i don`t want to meet with a shady person in a back alleyway that could beat me up and take my money or whatever... i just want to buy a damn product from a company... but NO! i have to buy it from the scalpers because Sony loves the damn scalpers!!! keep your shit sony and i`ll keep my money and i hope the damn scalpers get what they deserve as well... Pathetic...
Oh, the Metaphor PC demo is bugged? I don't have the best rig, but I was wondering why I struggled to hit 60 fps (all the way down to 35 fps) even dropping down to 1440p & 75% on the resolution slider. I can run P3 Reload at 4k highest settings (no RT) at 60 fps without issue but Metaphor is killing my PC.
Sony and pathetic are a better match than Mac and cheese, PB&J, and jack and coke. Sony is the titanic right after it hit the iceberg and the captain said "This ship is unsinkable"
Some people have more money than sense if they're forking out $3000/4000 to a scalper for a console that will be about as effective as a doorstop in 20 years time.
What’s funny about that Xbox TGS showcase is that despite it offering zero new exclusive content it’s the happiest I’ve been as an Xbox gamer in quite some time, and it’s because it’s an indicator that Xbox is making strides in bringing back the Japanese support they had during the 360 era. I still say that they need exclusives to validate their hardware, but I was VERY happy with that TGS showcase. I would say I actually preferred the TGS showcase to the June showcase.
Personally I couldn't care about exclusives, let anyone play the game if they have a system that can run it. I play Xbox because of the offering they provide like backwards compatibility, Controller Ergonomics, etc.
@@AlexiaHoardwing, exclusives move hardware, which is why Xbox consoles aren’t selling like the other platforms do, and every Xbox game that appears on another platform is one less reason for gamers to invest in Xbox hardware.
Oh these people aren't buying for those crazy prices. Out of spite people are buying and not going through with the purchases, I've been doing it for years, I go as far as saving the selling to make sure when they reposted the item so that I'll do just that again and again...
Sony didn't learn anything from the last time and it's pretty clear that they had no intentions on making any more of these consoles if they sold out. But the fact that they're selling these PlayStation consoles for the price of a PC is absolutely baffling it's pretty clear that Sony was not selling these consoles to PlayStation fans but they were selling these consoles to scalpers. Well this is one hell of a way to celebrate 30 years of PlayStation😂
Zelda: The poor software quality optimisation disease plaguing PC/console games has finally arrived to the Nintendo Switch. The Switch 2 DLSS will remedy the problem, right? It's only downhill from here on out folks. Metaphor: the PC version has bad performance and major aliasing issues. I can only hope they'll be addressed for launch, with additional graphical options to improve the image quality. Otherwise, the demo was fun.
I waited at 6 am in the morning, I got nothing from the 30th. But once I saw the full price of the PS5 Pro bundle that’s ACTUALLY a Gaming PC price tag… So thanks Sony you convinced me to get Gaming PC.. I’ll still try the 30 th Edge controller though lol
Your better off with the PC at least you can play almost anything with nicer graphics/FPS and can upgrade when you want, if Sony had sold the Pro with a disc drive at 600 retail then it wouldn't feel too bad but those scalper prices are ridiculous, it's absolutely priced people onto PCs, yeah the 30th edge controller looks awesome might snag one myself lol
The Xbox Showcase was okay to me. I rate it a *"C+"* this time around. The plus is for releasing the Visions games into GamePass Ultimate. Hell. Yeah. But other than that, nothing really caught my attention. Nothing that we weren't already aware of, that is. Side Note: I already have Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1&2 pre-ordered. I am supporting those two games with my whole chest - or, wallet, as it were. 👍🏾
It wasn't really an Xbox showcase. It's meant mostly to gain supporters in Japan. That's why most of us already knew not to expect a bunch of big game announcements or anything.
I am still baffled that people wanted an ugly grey PS5 Pro in the first place. Just get the beautiful silver finish covers for the regular pro which incidentally were at a reduced price when the pro went on sale. At least they were in Australia. Covers were reduced by $30 When you look at that beautiful blue they did for the previous anniversary console this looks drab and uninteresting.
They didn't have. To pay that price, it was their choice.Yes what sony did is coming but at the end of the day they're not forcing anyone to pay the product
Alot of Xbox fans arent happy with the TGS but honestly The Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters have been what ive wanted ported the most. So when I woke up this morning I was overjoyed & instantly purchased. I do hope that 16 & the 7 remakes make there way at some point but I got what I wanted lol😊
@@ReaveIdono A lot of them just wanted the big high profile games like FF16 & the FF7 Remakes. Like I said I was happy. & We got more Mana games. Hopefully they port over more.
Am i crazy i could have sworn that when metaphor was shown at xbox's show last year it stated that it was day one gamepass... and now that its almost here... it seems like it may not be on gamepass at all.
Normally I'm not interested in rts type games. And I'm not saying that rts games are bad, just not my genre. I've played only Halo Wars 1 and 2 and very much enjoyed it, partly becuse its Halo. But damn, Star Craft is that one rts I would play for sure on my Xbox. Maybe in the future, maybe😅
If I was going to spend 4k I’d have a custom PC Built. Sony seem to be pushing as hard as they can to see what they can get away with. I’d hate to think what they might try to charge for the PS6 now. 2027/2028 isn’t that far away.
So they made their 12.3 million. They got their money, not that much in the grand scheme of things. Wouldn't surprise me if they are the ones actually reselling these.
Sony has no control over who preorders their consoles and what they decide to do with them afterwards. Scalpers have been a problem for a while now, and the problems with manufacturing chips aren’t helping anything, but to spin it as somehow Sony’s wrongdoing because scalpers prey on morons that are too loose with their money is just silly. If anything, be pissed at the idiots that are spending more than a mortgage payment on a videogame console.
I don't think they screwed anyone. Did I want one? Yes. Did I get one? No. It's supposed to be limited and it is. Many companies do this and it is what it is. I was lucky enough to grab the portal though.
Lol thos dude has like 3 videos Saying Final Fantasy 16 was coming to Xbox at Tokyo Game Show, now not a word on it😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 i love when Jaywood makes a fool of himself
Im pissed i miss out on making 3k on a someone that clearly has too much money i didn't know about the pre orders 😢 tbf i don't have a bot to buy it so would have probably still missed it
Everyone on here gets upset about prices but thats the whole reason Xbox dropped out because yall didn’t want to pay. My sony pony az is happy to have a 700$ plug and play 4070 without needing to buy all the other crap pc people got to buy. Looking forward to the df head to heads.
Why is this guy so angry at how these companies do product drops? Been happening since 2020 at least with Xbox Series, nVidia GPUs and PS5. Bots will always win.
I bought my Xbox series x from a scalper for 600 I was ok with it cause I got a new console with no tax 😂 but when I tried to buy the ps5 they were going for 1000 to 800 and I just gave up and said naw ps5 is not for me I’m not buying I’ll wait for the ps5 pro now I’ve changed my mind I don’t even want a ps5 anymore not until silent hill 2 comes out cause the only reason i bought my ps4 was cause of the PT demo and silent hills coming soon that later got cancelled not buying ps5 until I see silent hill 2 on it and no I’m not buying a pro my ps5 will more then likely be 300 or less when I get it let the scalpers have the pro 😂
It’s very telling that an Xbox-preferential channel would rather blast PlayStation than hype Xbox on the same day as Xbox’s Tokyo Game Show presentation. 🤔 (Edit: revised “Xbox-preferential” from “Xbox-centric.”)

You do realise the 30th anniversary bundle is an investment not really for use. They are just selling early rather than waiting 10, 20, 30 years before selling.
@@fishmo_mofish buying at retail and selling for 4k is scalping.
@jmcclain8237 If it's only 1 item, it's a personal purchase, I don't care. Buying multiple is scalping.
My guy microsoft messed us up to when they released the halo edition series x
ArrogantStation continues to get worse.
Echoes of Wisdom only got an 86 on MC? That means it's "trash" right?
I mean, Starfield has an 86 on PC & everyone says it's awful, so I'm guessing that means everything 86 or lower is also trash 😅
Starfield is associated with xbox so it is by default considered bad by the online biased gaming media mob. If starfield had a 96 on metacritic it would still be hated on nonstop. If a sony or nintendo game scores in the mid 80's, or even 70's it is considered good but xbox is held to a different standard.
Media has double standards against Xbox. My thing is that Sony doesn’t get much pushback for anti consumer practices like these recent prices. The 30th anniversary console limited or not shouldn’t be $1000. PlayStation for the payers.
@@sonysoyboysaremadeoftears.7404 the way the gaming community talks about days gone, you'd think it's a 90 Metacritic masterpiece. But instead it has a measly 72.
If days gone was an Xbox game it's be trashed nonstop. God forbid an Xbox game get a rating in the low 70s.
Same goes for Stellar Blade, Ghost of Tsushima, and Rise of the Ronin, all games with lower Meta scores than the majority of recent Xbox games like Starfield
It's the reason Pony logic makes no sense.
I was gonna get the PS5 now I won't
Sony should attempt to mitigate scalpers. It should be in Sony's best interest to sell as many consoles as they can to actual customers who will buy games. They are after software revenue after all. The only way I can see Sony being okay with scalpers, is if they themselves are getting scalping money.
Thing is Sony doesn't care about the console being used to play games. At this point everyone who was going to buy the anniversary console already has bought the ps5 and games on it.
I called it & knew Sony was gonna do some kind of shady prices & deals. They been proving their anti consumer friendly business practice will never ever gonna end. The only thing that Sony can change is speaking with the consumers/casuals wallet is the way to get Sony to listen & be more pro consumer friendly business practice. Until then the PlayStation community player base can expect more worse anti consumer friendly business practice forever.
If they provide a product consumers are clearly able to buy, how are they anticonsumer? It seems that every company is "anticonsumer" when they don't price the products conveniently for the average consumer. Makes no sense when the standard PS5 is still available for purchase.
@@crymsonenigma would u rather pay for upgrade features or get the upgrade features for free which is available for the Xbox gamers. Quick Resume only for single player games not for multiplayer games. Having the option for free upgrades & optimize auto HDR with performance boost for older games through backwards compatibility that Sony is failing to have native backwards compatibility not by some 3rd developers of lacking features for the PlayStation software & how many times will y'all get it that Sony weak security firmware will get hacked that will put the PlayStation gamers account at risk for a 3rd time. At least Microsoft doesn't allow their security firmwares to get hacked so easily like how Sony keeps letting the hackers to hacked into the Sony weak security firmwares if the PS3 & now the PS5 weak security firmwares didn't teach Sony a lesson yet again. If u don't have any proof to Microsoft weak security firmwares then the question is for Sony allowing that to happened 2nd time this console generation. If Sony doesn't learned yet it can happen 3rd time & ask yourself why the PC gamers doesn't want that weak security PSN account as the PC gamers can see it happened that Sony will allow their weak security firmwares to get hacked again.
@ByronXbox4Life that is a lot of words to say absolutely nothing. Who gives a shit about old games?!?! They're old!! I've got a Series X as well, and I've NEVER even fired up an old game. Quick Resume is an ass feature to even mention, given the level of ass that Xbox library is. Who cares that one can quickly resume scarce offerings? Every release from Starfield to Redfall has been great disappointments. I'll stay where the games are and the company pushing towards new options of play.
@@crymsonenigma See that's where u wrong people like me do care about playing old games even quick resume. U might not care about playing old games but the majority of people do care about playing old games that's backwards compatibility with native 4k & 60fps. Do yourself a favor ask around in TH-cam comments besides this comment & see how many people do care about playing old games that get upgraded treatment that 10 to 20 years old not the one's that's out now to 5 or 7 years old. U should think twice because the majority of people do want to play those old games from the PS1 PS2 & PS3 library as well the same goes for both Nintendo & Microsoft. U might like it not but to downplay why playing old games if laughable coming from u.
@@crymsonenigmaYou sound like someone who doesn't know anything about games, hardware/consoles or the current market of Xbox or PS and why they're in the positions they're in, (your just talking for the sake of talking),,, as for old games, many people like them because they can be better than current games or from childhood/(didn't get the chance to play growing up), right now Sony is being anti-consumer by upselling accessories/consoles for big profit from their own fanbase rather than giving a good deal and selling more, it drives people away more than bringing people in, but that loyal fanbase can't see it and defend it, it's not about affordability it's about how it comes across to the majority of people.
We tried to tell you these pony's are sick
I wouldn't be surprised if people working in Sony Happen to know exactly Who these Scalpers are personally
Plot twist the biggest scalper Is Jim Ryan
Hell yeah for StarCraft 🎉 my favourite game of all time
The only people celebrating are the scalpers over the ignorance of Sony and it's diehard fans who will spend an almost unlimited price point on a new Sony item. All Sony cares about are console sales numbers, and not who the ones are actually purchasing them.
Sony - We sold 12,000 anniversary consoles on preorder in minutes.
Ponies - We didn't get a single anniversary console on preorder, so we are having to spend thousands to scalpers to get them.
Whose buying a ps5 pro for $4000 😂😂😂
It's Sony..they never sold them and pretending to be scalpers.
bro,i can buy a motorcycle with that, like seriously
@votpavel so here's why it's so dumb. That for $700 is dumb for 20 games at launch 🤣🤣. Pc you get all your games upgraded because you buy unlocked games with all settings.
Sony are selling higher settings and charging for that...and a console 😂😂.
People will buy this bullsht
@@c523jw7 out of our main group of 4 people, 1 bought a pro, he always gets weird games and likes new tech so whatever, rest of us 3 didnt buy a pro, its simply too expensive, regular ps5 not that old and works fine and there is no games anyway to benefit much from a pro, other 3 of our friends still on ps4s man
@@c523jw7 so what im saying is if so many of us didnt get one and we been with sony since ps1 days then you can bet not that many bought them either, sure they sold them but i doubt that many bought them
@votpavel let's hope ppl aren't that dumb. We see the pc is expensive argument..playstation have lost their damn minds and these scumbag scalpers.
Just picked up ff pixel remastered
i pre ordered the ps5 pro. but i cancelled it today couldn't t justify the £699 price tag. so might just get the standard ps5.
Suikoden Remasters... Man got to the final battle on II and dropped my disc which then scratched as I picked it up.... Maybe I'll actually try a JRPG again this was one that got e hooked, loved all the secret characters you could grab.
$4,000 Dollars? You should just Get a High End PC instead! 100% :)
A celebration for their fans. Supposedly all 12,000 of them. Come on Sony.
Not interested in JRPGs so this Game Pass drop does nothing for me. But glad these games are being brought over for the audience that wants them.
My advice is, 3D print your own retro shell!
4000$ for Pro excluding shipping... 1000$ sounds like a bargain in Scandinavia for the standard console.
I doubt Pro will sell good there since PC Gaming/Gaming Home Computer dominated there for over 40 years ever since Commodore ruled Scandinavia for 10 years.
People are buying these ps5 pro 30th anniversary for 5k on eBay. That’s pure insanity!
i wouldnt buy the ps5 pro for even half its current price i cant see the value in it. so the fact someone is happy to pay 4k for ot is wild
Sony also upped the price of horizon zero dawn digital... To take piss out of new buyers wanting to eventually upgrade to the remaster
I'll be honest. HZD is a product of it's time. I've been trying to play it for about a year and get bored within 30 minutes of playing everytime. People who played it when it released probably had a blast since it was fresh and great. However thanks to over saturation of the games genre coming into it I can't help but feel it was overhyped.
Links Awakening had frame rate issues that never affected me playing the game in any major way. So far I am really liking the new game. I just love this art style and the Isometric view.
i wanted to buy the spiderman plates, Sony said "NO! buy it from the scalpers!". I wanted the astrobot controller and sony said "NO! get it from the scalpers". i wanted an anniversary controller because i knew i had no chance of buying anything else from that release and sony said: "NO! buy it from the scalpers!". Dude, i don`t want to buy it from a scalper a a higher price and eventually an opened product or god knows what i get inside the damn box... i don`t want to meet with a shady person in a back alleyway that could beat me up and take my money or whatever... i just want to buy a damn product from a company... but NO! i have to buy it from the scalpers because Sony loves the damn scalpers!!! keep your shit sony and i`ll keep my money and i hope the damn scalpers get what they deserve as well... Pathetic...
Oh, the Metaphor PC demo is bugged? I don't have the best rig, but I was wondering why I struggled to hit 60 fps (all the way down to 35 fps) even dropping down to 1440p & 75% on the resolution slider.
I can run P3 Reload at 4k highest settings (no RT) at 60 fps without issue but Metaphor is killing my PC.
Sony and pathetic are a better match than Mac and cheese, PB&J, and jack and coke. Sony is the titanic right after it hit the iceberg and the captain said "This ship is unsinkable"
How Sony has fallen. You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain
PSSR boys literally PSSR-ing their money away.

@@wallstreetomegazoe2963literally spent $2300 on a gaming PC this month. Its definitely very expensive for me but I managed it.
8:30 caught me with my guard down. Jokes aside, the "while supply lasts" message was an unashamed fomo tatic.
Some people have more money than sense if they're forking out $3000/4000 to a scalper for a console that will be about as effective as a doorstop in 20 years time.
4 grand HOLYYY CRAAAP!!!
Just pay up
What’s funny about that Xbox TGS showcase is that despite it offering zero new exclusive content it’s the happiest I’ve been as an Xbox gamer in quite some time, and it’s because it’s an indicator that Xbox is making strides in bringing back the Japanese support they had during the 360 era. I still say that they need exclusives to validate their hardware, but I was VERY happy with that TGS showcase. I would say I actually preferred the TGS showcase to the June showcase.
Personally I couldn't care about exclusives, let anyone play the game if they have a system that can run it. I play Xbox because of the offering they provide like backwards compatibility, Controller Ergonomics, etc.
@@AlexiaHoardwing, exclusives move hardware, which is why Xbox consoles aren’t selling like the other platforms do, and every Xbox game that appears on another platform is one less reason for gamers to invest in Xbox hardware.
@@EvadXocliw I never said they didn't, I said "Personally I".
That’s how you know Xbox is dead
Xbox is garbage 😂 no games no content yet is better
Oh these people aren't buying for those crazy prices. Out of spite people are buying and not going through with the purchases, I've been doing it for years, I go as far as saving the selling to make sure when they reposted the item so that I'll do just that again and again...
Sony didn't learn anything from the last time and it's pretty clear that they had no intentions on making any more of these consoles if they sold out. But the fact that they're selling these PlayStation consoles for the price of a PC is absolutely baffling it's pretty clear that Sony was not selling these consoles to PlayStation fans but they were selling these consoles to scalpers.
Well this is one hell of a way to celebrate 30 years of PlayStation😂
Zelda: The poor software quality optimisation disease plaguing PC/console games has finally arrived to the Nintendo Switch. The Switch 2 DLSS will remedy the problem, right? It's only downhill from here on out folks. Metaphor: the PC version has bad performance and major aliasing issues. I can only hope they'll be addressed for launch, with additional graphical options to improve the image quality. Otherwise, the demo was fun.
I waited at 6 am in the morning, I got nothing from the 30th. But once I saw the full price of the PS5 Pro bundle that’s ACTUALLY a Gaming PC price tag…
So thanks Sony you convinced me to get Gaming PC..
I’ll still try the 30 th Edge controller though lol
Your better off with the PC at least you can play almost anything with nicer graphics/FPS and can upgrade when you want, if Sony had sold the Pro with a disc drive at 600 retail then it wouldn't feel too bad but those scalper prices are ridiculous, it's absolutely priced people onto PCs, yeah the 30th edge controller looks awesome might snag one myself lol
Metaphor is made by Persona devs who wanted to do something new so Atlus made a new studio.
I never played Star Craft, but I watched the cutscenes on TH-cam long time ago, so I'm excited for that to be remastered 😊👍
If consumers had some self control, they could leave these scalpers with two things in their hands
The Xbox Showcase was okay to me. I rate it a *"C+"* this time around. The plus is for releasing the Visions games into GamePass Ultimate.
Hell.
Yeah.
But other than that, nothing really caught my attention. Nothing that we weren't already aware of, that is.
Side Note:
I already have Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1&2 pre-ordered. I am supporting those two games with my whole chest - or, wallet, as it were. 👍🏾
It wasn't really an Xbox showcase. It's meant mostly to gain supporters in Japan. That's why most of us already knew not to expect a bunch of big game announcements or anything.
@@megilacuttyjones735
Fair point. No argument here.
I am still baffled that people wanted an ugly grey PS5 Pro in the first place. Just get the beautiful silver finish covers for the regular pro which incidentally were at a reduced price when the pro went on sale. At least they were in Australia. Covers were reduced by $30
When you look at that beautiful blue they did for the previous anniversary console this looks drab and uninteresting.
The problem is not sony is ppl not knowing how to keep their wallets on check, is your 1 day honeymoon phase worth $700+?
I disagree, the fans deserve to pay scalper prices. The fans are fanning the flames by buying them.
Star Craft is good news, Only Bough Wing of Liberty, felt the 3 part ask was too expensive, so playing the campaigns on Gamepass is good news.
They didn't have.
To pay that price, it was their choice.Yes what sony did is coming but at the end of the day they're not forcing anyone to pay the product
Just buy grey spraypaint and PS logo. Take off those white plates and paint them. Will cost you 30$.
Alot of Xbox fans arent happy with the TGS but honestly The Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters have been what ive wanted ported the most. So when I woke up this morning I was overjoyed & instantly purchased. I do hope that 16 & the 7 remakes make there way at some point but I got what I wanted lol😊
Idk why any Xbox fan wouldn't be happy with what we got from TGS!!!! It was amazing
@@ReaveIdono A lot of them just wanted the big high profile games like FF16 & the FF7 Remakes. Like I said I was happy. & We got more Mana games. Hopefully they port over more.
@patriciamorgan2521 Don't get me wrong. I want those too but we are eating on Xbox lately!!!
Yes it is a crazy day I have not seen nothing like this for a while now 4000 get out of here with that I love my kids but for that much no way 😳
Am i crazy i could have sworn that when metaphor was shown at xbox's show last year it stated that it was day one gamepass... and now that its almost here... it seems like it may not be on gamepass at all.
Sony : Look at me, I am the scalper now
Im just happy i was able to reserve my ps5 pro.
I seriously thought final fantasy 16 would have been announced for Xbox
Sony is a horrible company and that makes microsoft at the launch of the Xbox One look like angels.
Normally I'm not interested in rts type games. And I'm not saying that rts games are bad, just not my genre. I've played only Halo Wars 1 and 2 and very much enjoyed it, partly becuse its Halo. But damn, Star Craft is that one rts I would play for sure on my Xbox. Maybe in the future, maybe😅
If I was going to spend 4k I’d have a custom PC Built. Sony seem to be pushing as hard as they can to see what they can get away with. I’d hate to think what they might try to charge for the PS6 now. 2027/2028 isn’t that far away.
So they made their 12.3 million. They got their money, not that much in the grand scheme of things. Wouldn't surprise me if they are the ones actually reselling these.
Laughs in a 4080 build. Can play almost all games.
Why gives us fans who’ve actually been there since day one an email to preorder when you can cater to the bot farms aiming to gouge us fans.
Great video 👍👍
The ps5 pro sold out in places where I am.. it’s $1360 with the cd drive.
We all gon sit here and pretend like the new Monopoly video game didn’t just drop?
Sony has no control over who preorders their consoles and what they decide to do with them afterwards. Scalpers have been a problem for a while now, and the problems with manufacturing chips aren’t helping anything, but to spin it as somehow Sony’s wrongdoing because scalpers prey on morons that are too loose with their money is just silly. If anything, be pissed at the idiots that are spending more than a mortgage payment on a videogame console.
I don't think they screwed anyone. Did I want one? Yes. Did I get one? No. It's supposed to be limited and it is. Many companies do this and it is what it is. I was lucky enough to grab the portal though.
Lol thos dude has like 3 videos Saying Final Fantasy 16 was coming to Xbox at Tokyo Game Show, now not a word on it😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 i love when Jaywood makes a fool of himself
Im pissed i miss out on making 3k on a someone that clearly has too much money i didn't know about the pre orders 😢 tbf i don't have a bot to buy it so would have probably still missed it
FTC is blind to this.
WOW someone is very butt hurt they did not get a PS Pro classic which they said they were not going to get any way.
Everyone on here gets upset about prices but thats the whole reason Xbox dropped out because yall didn’t want to pay. My sony pony az is happy to have a 700$ plug and play 4070 without needing to buy all the other crap pc people got to buy. Looking forward to the df head to heads.
Normalize robbing scalpers
Why is this guy so angry at how these companies do product drops? Been happening since 2020 at least with Xbox Series, nVidia GPUs and PS5. Bots will always win.
Cause there are ways to mitigate them.
Industry crash 2025.
Mark this comment.
Largely thanks to sony.
nah, I bet Switch2 will sell well (or at least not be on short supply)
I bought my Xbox series x from a scalper for 600 I was ok with it cause I got a new console with no tax 😂 but when I tried to buy the ps5 they were going for 1000 to 800 and I just gave up and said naw ps5 is not for me I’m not buying I’ll wait for the ps5 pro now I’ve changed my mind I don’t even want a ps5 anymore not until silent hill 2 comes out cause the only reason i bought my ps4 was cause of the PT demo and silent hills coming soon that later got cancelled not buying ps5 until I see silent hill 2 on it and no I’m not buying a pro my ps5 will more then likely be 300 or less when I get it let the scalpers have the pro 😂
Depending on the tax in your area you only overpaid $60 IF you were in PA. So given the scarcity of them pre 2022, it's not a terrible deal.
It’s very telling that an Xbox-preferential channel would rather blast PlayStation than hype Xbox on the same day as Xbox’s Tokyo Game Show presentation. 🤔
(Edit: revised “Xbox-preferential” from “Xbox-centric.”)
Im afraid you are mistaken. He covers all consoles.
It's very telling you don't even know this is not an Xbox centric channel 🤔
Y'all just gonna keep letting sony fuck yall huh?
On second thought, “Xbox-preferential” would be more appropriate. Thank you.
It's very telling that an obvious sony muppet would rather try to spin any xbox news as negative and ignore sonys blatant anti consumer practices. I'll be screenshotting your comment so I can throw it in your face in the future frankcope.
