Sony release a slim version and yet manages to give you less in the box and charge your more for it!

Honestly, I’ve been holding off on getting a PS5 because I was hoping they would come out with a ā€œSlimā€ or ā€œredesignedā€ version, but man… this isn’t it. Maybe if they put it side by side with an original PS5 we could get a better idea of the size reduction, but it still looks incredibly garish.

It looks like something that won a participation prize at a highschool design competition.

It’s genuinely unbelievable that the thing still needs a stand. That’s a failure in industrial design in my book.

ā€œThat’s for buying more switch software over us!ā€

Gotta add extra profit somewhere… Then they can start selling colored bases so you buy extras, etc. To be honest I’d think offering RGB bases that can shoot lights up the side of the thing would be a pretty cool way to make it look neater.

I still dont get why anyone can justify these rereleased consoles on any brand.

Well that is a whole lot of nothing. Maybe they are saving the better looking console for the pro version.

Jim lying Ryan goes on a year long crusade on how Xbox getting ABK would ruin competition and that Xbox is a fierce competitor of there’s.

Within that same year, proceeds to raise the prices of PS Plus by 30%, raise the price of the consoles multiple times and raise the accessory prices.

His mouth says one thing, his actions say a completely other thing. Nasty business.

I mean you can justify it if you dont own one or want one that doesnt look fucking ugly. Theres a reason why ps2 and DS had the best redesigns of all time.

I dont own a ps5 and i was waiting for slim. I might jusy get a fucking original when it goes down in price.

At this point, wait for their games to release on PC and play both MS and Sony titles there.

You hafta know that someone is reverse engineering the vertical stand and creating a model that can be printed on a 3D printer. And then make it open source.
