It's like everything console, the system may be cheap but the games wont be! You've bought into a license and stuck with it. Plus the HDD sizes are crap! I've got 9 TB of HD space plus 2 spare bays. You'll never see a console sold with decent storage. It's all about 'getting you started' then get the tills ringing. Mugs game.

That price for one controller, one game and all the above is £760. Which is garbage. It's not like build a PC and then your whole digital library follows you. Rolling Eyes

More money than sense, clearly

Literally the only thing that would make me consider a purchasing a nextgen console is if they could also be plugged into a pc/ or supported custom Linux boot and used/abused as work horse /workstation for the extra GPU/CPU hardware.. ie rendering etc.

Otherwise yeah what's the point the hardare is not bad for the price, but the expenses of games etc.. I'd probably buy some games that are best played with a controller, and the anti cheat /level playing field.... might be better than the hack fested PC side.. and rather all DRM anti cheat shit on a console, than all the junk that gets loaded up pc as services for this anti cheat crap...

but eh mainly FPS gamer and that is kb/m ..so again it needs to have some other selling than just gaming for me.

500 bucks are not bad - that's about the price of a decent CPU.
Question is, what do you really get for your money?
(wait for real reviews)

Just because someone can find a few scenarios where crapbox can beat a pissass5 does not mean it's better.
So, yeah. Real reviews are required not some synth crap.

Console sucks. Couldn't care less for any platform. This is my summary view of console.
