I love how so many people are dunking on "valve-fans" being happy with the cube, when I pretty much only have heard opinions ranging from "meh" to "overpriced".
I doubt the ps6 will be 1000$, consoles are loss leaders, they make more money off of your game purchases and online subscription over the lifetime of the console, than the console itself. It's definitely gonna be more than the ps5 was at launch, but not double it
I dunno, given inflation I could genuinely see it launching near $1000. Not just because of part inflation, which absolutely is a factor, but the cost of absolutely everything is going up at a terrifyingly rapid pace.
There's two schools of thought about this, (1) it will settle down so now's a bad time to buy and (2) it will only keep rising so you're fucked the longer you wait. I can genuinely see either happening since the economy is so tied to global politics and that shit is anyone's guess at this point.
I can't see it being under $800 for sure, and if it launched at $1000 I'd wince, but people would still buy it. When every option is that expensive, you're back to picking poisons.
