It's too expensive. $500 is already too much for these things.
But capitalism's gotta capitalism.
$700 is actually probably a fair price for a PS5. You can't really build an equivalent PC for less than that. $900 to $1,200 would probably be close to how much manufacturing the PS5 Pro costs.
But PSN subsidizes these costs, which is why these systems can be this "affordable".
the fuck you are smoking? my first desktop kost that much and it ran crysis really fucking good
Better than a PS5 Pro? Bruh 😂
Adjusted to inflation and time, hell yes
