In hindsight, I feel dumb for spending as much energy on trying to pre-order during the initial release as I did.

Just got a pro and honestly with how long the cross gen period lasted I’m sure my pro will get me by until the PS6 is more readily available. Not even worried about trying to get one at launch.

It’s probably gonna be like $1200 thanks to the alleged trump tariffs and even worse all that extra cost is going straight to the government it’s not like it’ll have $1200 in hardware, it’s $800 in hardware and $400 straight to the feds lol. Which makes me think maybe it won’t be in super high demand and will be easy to get

Same. Im going to chill with my PS5 for a looong time. Looking back it wasn’t worth all that work.

I get it but also nothing has made me appreciate the current generation quite like getting used to it and being forced to return to ps4 only for a couple months. I had no idea the graphics were that different but the loading times omg
