Nothing's changed for me, cautiously optimistic BUT I need to see a games library of 30+ games available. Will consider it next year unless I have bought a Scorpio then it will have to be the year after that (unless something else has come along).

I have made my decision, I am getting it day 1

I was hesistant before because all I saw were ports like Zelda, MK8, Splatoon (it was pitched as a port before) with minor additions but now I see the MK8 is actually a bigger game, the Splatoon isn't a port because it's the freaking sequel and that Mario openworld looks like a platformer paradise

Depends if there is a price difference, expecting the Neon color version to be bit more

The game covers remind me of the PSP game covers, but they should have went for a red plastic instead of the transparent one

$30 and $15 (per pair) respectively.

A spare docking station (with charger and cables) will be $90.

Overpriced console.
Overpriced peripherals.
And the paid online currently sounds poor.

Some games look pretty good.

I recently replayed BL 2 and have to admit it hasn't aged well. I was extremely bored with it and couldn't believe it was the same game that I loved when I first played it.

I hope, though, that the console gets more 3rd party games and devs willing to take a chance on it. We need a third console to be competitive a duopoly helps noone

@DEATHGIGAS
They have it listed here: https://nexushub.co.za/product/control-resonant-pid285827.html

Just keep in mind that the physical edition was delayed from Remedy's side, so releases like a month after digital.

This month and next are absolute stacked. Too many good games, too little money!

Control Resonant getting good reviews too. My wallet can't keep up T.T

Ironic thing. There is going to be an album for GTA6. And it will be available on both CD and Vinyl.

So clearly it's about control for Sony and Rockstar, not wanting you to own games. But you can own a CD and Vinyl. Both are crappy companies. I really want to see Sony crash and burn so hard. But the way Sony is going, it might be sooner, rather than later.

Good morning! It's FF7P3 Deluxe Edition price reveal day
