So the Xbox event was supposed to be next week, maybe they move it up now.

This is fantastic news if true. $499 for the X was the “sweet spot” price for me.

One thing to remember about Sony’s discless PS5 is that they aren’t intending to save $$$ making the thing. They intend to make $$$ by forcing all sales to be through their storefront. They can eat more cost on the DE version than they can the disc version.

Called it 249/299!

Incredible price! But would have prefered a proper reveal officially.

The grey black circle is weird on the S. But wow how small it is. I might get one lol

Hope the SX is 399. 499 is max. If over nope.

499 basically confirmed by @Jez

Jeff Grubb hinting Xbox Live paywall is still coming down. I’m not sure I can take that rollercoaster ride again.

$299: If Sony is able to undercut that, well that is just a win-win for everyone. Pricing wars are back and competition remains good. :slight_smile:

Yeah if they could undercut that I’d get one.

Hmmmm. The more I think about the clip, the more I’m slightly skeptical about this being the final details. Why would they make a video with ‘estimated pricing’ written on it? If that is legit, at this stage they would not be estimating anything and certainly making the official announcement video and graphics with that kinda wishy washy qualifier.

I trust Jez and Brad for Xbox leaks 100% which makes me wonder if this is a controlled leak meant to make Sony react. /tinfoil hat

Hot damn, my internet goes out and when it comes back, boom, price and launch date for BOTH versions confirmed. LET ME PREORDER!!!

Jez’s sources here are almost assuredly the same as Brad’s. Maybe @Jez can comment?

Heck even I would get one at below $299 haha.

499 max is good then! Would have loved 399 but 499 is fine for such a beast.

Oh man… if the MP paywall comes down too…MS is aggressive as hell.

Fucking megaton. All Access at launch could be the real MVP for the Xbox Series line. I have a modest physical collection, so it’s basically X or nothing for me. The Series S for my bedroom, however, looks more like a sooner rather than later type of thing. I love the design and form factor so much!

The PS5D pretty much HAS to be $399 when Xbox has $299 locked up. I don’t think many casual gamers will care too much that the gpu is weaker. Money talks louder than specs. No one knows this better than Sony. They better hope they sell lots of games because they’re about to be forced into losing a ton of money on every PS5D sold.

Great prices. Was hoping for November 6th though since it’s a Friday and the start of the weekend. :frowning:

Gotta give it to him, he sure has a lot of confidence in his “speculation”. Let’s hope that paywall does come down, if not for all games, at least f2p games.
