Its a bit a leap to to say theres a cell processor in the ps5. theres alot more to cell processor than just SPUs
no chance the next gen graphics cards will eat ps5 and xsxI paid 800 for my amp and 1200 for my TV so 500 will be an absolute bargain for the spec. I spent 1200 on a PC too but that's s only midrange. The gen after 5 I predict the slow death of PC as the difference in fidelity becomes neglible.
I'd seriously concerned a move back to consoles looking at the new generation but I've decided against it. As it is my PC is slightly more powerful I'd assume (RTX 2070Super) already and I've quite a digital libraryno chance the next gen graphics cards will eat ps5 and xsx
my PC plays that at mid-high settings @ 3440x1440 so I doubt you need a £1k graphics card for itConsole vs PC argument will never change, you'll always get better quality on PC, but you pay for it. I was looking at specs for Assetto Corsa Competizione, to get 4k60 it seems you need £1k+ worth of video card alone.
I don't think they're really meant to compete with each other.
Consoles use to be about multiplayer split screen, but that seems to have died a death in recent times thanks to the internet.
Best days on a console were completing halo 1-3 on all difficulty levels with a mate on his 360 which would randomly throw up the red ring of death until we threw a few PC fans on it...
Surely Nov would be better for those saving too then? Gives them longer to save.November release makes sense as that grab the xmas crowd. Oct would be better though, as obv not everyone can afford to shell out ~500 notes without saving.
In my experience, the prices tend to skyrocket weeks before Xmas due to stock issues. If they launch in October, it will give them time to restock.Surely Nov would be better for those saving too then? Gives them longer to save.
I dont think I've ever seen that happen at all from the main shops on a console release.In my experience, the prices tend to skyrocket weeks before Xmas due to stock issues. If they launch in October, it will give them time to restock.
Yep all console launches near xmas, of recent times, once their initial launch allocation is sold out, they don’t get any more stock until the new year.I dont think I've ever seen that happen at all from the main shops on a console release.
Perhaps on ebay via the scalpers but not at a proper shop / Internet retailer.
Oh I know there is the stock issues. It's the prices sky rocketing I'd not seen other than ebay.Yep all console launches near xmas, of recent times, once their initial launch allocation is sold out, they don’t get any more stock until the new year.
If anything, this years launch will be even worse for stock with Coronavirus causing lots of the factories making the PS5 to close, there will definitely be less stock available than when the PS3/PS4 launched.

I've already been saving and prob have enough to pick it up already but i'll keep adding to what i have now and then and that should help get credit for games or some of the peripherals. Going to be a very expensive year this one!You're right of course, I hadn't figured in saving before release date.
I was more thinking towards all the lower wage parents suddenly faced with the prospect of their darlings wanting the new console(s) and not really having time to get the funds together.
