The digital PS5 is on sale for $379.99 until December 24. It's a little bit different from the leaked Black Friday ad though.

A permanent price cut next year may finally be on the way. However, I do wonder if Sony will have periodical discounts on hardware instead. It actually seems more likely with their premium pricing strategy this gen.

I really hope Sony figures out a way to play PS3 games natively. Getting Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2 announced to be releasing next week and remembering they're streaming only really puts a damper on my excitement lol. At least I still get to enjoy Resistance: Retribution!

Fingers crossed. While it is tough to emulate PS3 games, it's possible for at least a few dozen at minimum if Sony went for it. Cloud streaming for PS3 games is not sustainable, as I don't see how it will be worth the money and effort in the long term on Sony's part for PS3 streaming to survive into the 2030s.
