PS5 UI may look good, but my god is it overly cumbersome. They've taken the simplicity of the PS4 ui and just mangled the hell out of it. For example, here is how you update the system software:
PS4:
1) Settings
2) System Software Update
PS5:
1) Settings
2) System
3) System Software
4)...
Literally impossible for me to find one online today. Every time I checked Target, Best Buy, Costco, they all just said out of stock. Wal Mart had it's countdown to order, and it sold out within 11 seconds of becoming avaliable. Only bots can order that fast. Normal people impossible to get...
Ok, so you essentially get 4 months free if you go with the S, and 1.3 months free if you go with the X. At the extra 'cost' of being 'locked' in for 2 years.
So I really guess it comes down to preference of will you be using it for the full 2 years. I'm guessing most people who invest in a...
So doing the math, not figuring in any local tax:
S: $25 X 24 months = $600 - $300 console price = $300 / 24 = $12.50/month for Game Pass
X: $35 X 24 months = $840 - $500 consile price = $340 / 24 = $14.17/month for Game Pass
How much a month is Game Pass normally?
Sorry if i'm being thick, but I still don't get it? What am I paying $25/$35 a month for? The console? All Access? Both? How long do I pay that amount? Forever? 2 years? What happens after 2 years if it stops? Do I lose all access? What if I don't want to do a payment plan and just get...
I'm confused with that XBox All Access trailer posted above. It specifically states 2 years of All Access with no upfront cost, but then ends with 'from $24.99 a month'. Huh? How exactly does it work?
Heh. Not a chance in hell it costs that much. Even if $900 was an extreme steal and the actual box was worth$1,500, a price tag that high would be corporate suicide in the court of public opinion. People would revolt and declare the console DOA before it even launched.
Yeah they're already taking a huge loss I'm sure before even deducting any amount to undercut the other team. Hell just the graphics cards alone is in the $500+ range before adding anything else for the system.
Didn't they already try to do that with Minecraft a few years ago with the 'Super Duper" graphics pack that ended up being vaporware? I guess they actually have the power now to make it happen.
Don't know the hard release date for any of these, but these are the games that have me excited for PS5:
Resident Evil: Village
Spiderman: Miles Morales
Gran Turismo 7
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
Demon's Souls
Horizon II: Forbidden West
I'm guessing we don't know yet because Sony and Microsoft are having a pissing contest about who goes first. Neither side wants to go first and be undercut by the other so we get squat in terms of announcements. It's pretty stupid. We're about 3 months away from the rumored release date with...
Did someone just change the name of this thread? Pretty jarring to click into the Xbox Series X and immediately see a post saying 'I just ordered mine, reviews are stellar!' :D
Anyway, as a playstation owner who doesn't really follow Xbox, I'm massively confused about what this is supposed to...
