Well the PS2 wasn't all that much different looking than it's dev kit. Smaller, but very similar in design. SNY clearly had a V thing going on and they have followed through with it, just in an unforeseen way. A really cheap price itself isn't all that necessary, though too expensive is suicide regardless of looks. If this looked like the PS4 or PS2 or any of the XB1's, SNY would have likely gotten roasted way worse than they have. The fact that the PS5 design is like the Italian exotic version of the 360, is what will allow SNY to get away with it. The XB1 wasn't even as big, but it was designed like a cardboard shipping box. SNY is pretty smart when it comes to marketing in all aspects of gaming. If they price the PS5 like the 2020 Corvette, it'll sell plenty. |
PS3 devkit and final unit was similar as well. But on the PS5 that was totally different. The only similarities are the V shape and the vents.
