did you watch the video? he clearly said that there is no optical port. I am really disappointed. I am not buying this POS. So much being for the players and removing a feature that many of players use it for head sets or theater audio systems. Sony needs to know that not a lot of people can buy a new console, a new 4k TV, a new sourrund system with no optical, and a new VR device at the same time. Arrogant Sony is back with the anti-player sentiment supported by a huge players base and winning against xbox.

Wait... You're flipping out because they removed an audio port barely anyone on Earth ever uses? xD

Barley anyone on earth use it? If you dont use it, then it doesnt mean that no one the earth use it. I would suggest that you check the NeoGaf thread about the new slim and see that almost someone raises the issue of optical in almost every page in the thread. Sony just made many devices used by gamers obsolete without taking into consideration the following:

  - The world economy is not at its best, people can't keep changing things for Sony to save money

 

 - A new Neo coming, needing a new 4k TV, and then you have to pay for VR, and then you may want to replace your surround system since optical port is removed. Converters doesnt typically give the same audio quality.
