          I've been able to purchase Steam cards with a JB gift card in the past.
          I wouldn't imagine a PS card would be any different, provided you are able to swap the TCN for the JB card

            @cnut: I guess the thought patter in a PC us more more upgradeable and better for longevity. The components around a PC GPU can be replaced, but with a $1200 console, your stuck with it and then need to upgrade the whole system again when the new model comes out.

            But I do agree, if people just want to make gaming easy, the PS5 Pro isnt that bad value for what people get. I don't game often and will probably just get the regular PS5 when GTA6 is released.

      • greennick on 26/09/2024 - 11:05

        Already pre ordered one this morning, lol. The first PS5 was going for over 1500 often on ebay, so there is a market for people wanting to dump cash on this stuff. Compared to what 3 kids and 1 adult spend on games in our house, the console cost is insignificant. I mean, I am looking at spending 6k on a sim rig and that doesn't even include screens or a computer. You can spend a lot of money on this stuff if you get deep into it.

          My $364 delivered from Big W eBay Series S in 2021 would have you beat.

          Of course, that one item wins in value, I personally don't, since I bought the X as well, the shitty as PS5 as well (albeit for 750), and had a midnight launch and slim Switch.

          Cheap Series S is the way to be this gen for me personally.

            @TheDukeOfNukem: Since Microsoft has commited to PC gaming and cross platform, their console sales have tanked as everyone moves to game pass. PS5 is outselling them 5:1 in hardware. I wouldn't really see those purchases as a 'win' personally.

            • TheDukeOfNukem on 26/09/2024 - 09:03
              +6

              @Kill Joy: Sales numbers of the latest toy to whichever multibillion dollar company shouldn't matter to the end user, ever.

              The numbers that matter are these,

              Price of entry:
              PS5 Pro: 1200
              Series S: 500
              Number of games only on PS5: (profanity) all
              Number of games only on Xbox: (ignoring the hundreds more it has via back compat) also (profanity) all
              Number of games still rocking up on last gen anyway: a shitload

              There's a plenty good argument to be made to not bother getting into current gen at all, but if you had to, I'd buy a Series S on special every time. It plays 99% of the games the PS5 does, it has a shitload more cheap games (sticking with value) via back compat, and it's 300 less than a bog standard PS5 even before it goes on sale.

            • Spendmore on 26/09/2024 - 09:18

              @Kill Joy: You totally missed his point.

          • reactor-au on 26/09/2024 - 09:48

            @TheDukeOfNukem: Series S is a bit of a joke, it has held Microsoft back this generation.

            PS5 Pro at 1200 also a joke, it's half way into the generation and there are very few first party titles to go with it, maybe if they had it in 2021 but definitely not now.

            • TheDukeOfNukem on 26/09/2024 - 10:45

              @reactor-au: I'd be inclined to agree more, if there were more current gen games. The vast majority still come to last gen, and even ones framed as being current gen came eventually, like Hogwarts, Destroy All Humans 2, Jedi Survivor, Stray, etc.

              Series S may be holding back current gen, but last gen is

    I'm slightly interested in this, but not sure if I like games enough to justify the price. I have a bunch of 2nd hand PS4 games. Some I've played and/or finished and won't play again. Some I'm currently playing, when I get the time (Shadow of Mordor, Ghost of Tsushima, Watchdogs 2). Some I haven't played yet (Skyrim, Assassin's Creed Syndicate, Horizon Zero Dawn, Watchdogs Legion). Would I benefit from playing these PS4 games on the PS5, or would they only be slightly better?

    I'm wondering if there's a point to me getting this. I have a PS4 which I don't really play, but I do wish to play GTA VI when it comes out so will probably need a PS5. Other issue is that my TV is a LCD Sony from 2009. I presume I'd need to upgrade that really see a benefit in terms of graphics?

    So far, more than half-way through it's console lifecycle, there are only around a dozen games that are truly exclusive on the PS5. Owning a gaming PC and a PS4 Pro, I am not really tempted to get a PS5. Those exclusives will probably be released to the PC (Steam) in a few years anyway.

    • Ibz on 10/10/2024 - 12:04

    I wonder how many units they've shipped on the Portal. Seems like a bit of a solution without a problem to me. It's useful that my kid can play his Switch on the couch while I'm watching TV, but you can also just pick the Switch up and leave the house with it. As a standalone $300 bit of kit the Portal seems like it has really limited use-cases.

      I bought a Portal since launch and probably just used it 5 times. The issue is that it works fine in the same house but when you go out it causes all sorts of issues
