  • So, they increased the price to buy into their ecosystem with a second price hike this year, now they are asking a grand for a handheld, they must really want out of gaming, I know the tariffs suck but this just comes across as too much.

    It’s $999 plus taxes in most places, then you need Game Pass Ultimate to stream games to this thing, something they are using as a selling point, that’s a couple hundred per year and like any streaming service subject to sudden increases. I just don’t understand where they thing people are getting this money, there are signs people have already started pulling back.

    The Series S which was under powered according to a lot of devs even on release, is now 400 dollars for 500GB, 450 for 1TB, then the Series X now ranges 600 Digital, 650 Disc, 730 2TB, 800 2TB special color. As someone that has preferred Xbox since the OG, I think they’ve lost it, at least for now the PS Pro is 750 and objectively the better.









  • Oh look… another subscription I will cancel when my Black Friday deal ends, I will not be nickle and dime’d to death by legacy media for just a handful of shows, I can get entertainment in other ways.

    Peacock’s yearly plans will see similar increases, with Peacock Premium now priced at $109.99 per year (up from $79.99) and Premium Plus costing $169.99 (up from $139.99). Peacock Premium from $7.99 to $10.99 per month, while its ad-free Premium Plus plan will go from $13.99 per month to $16.99 per month.

    It’s quoted out of order, but it’s the increases.
