Youtubers have got to be the most annoying creatures on the planet with their stupid cringey face-pulling and clickbait headlines.

So that I don't give him a click, is this the Digital Edition, or has the regular slim now been reduced to 825 as well.

LOL, you actually watch these people on Youtube?

There is 100000000000000 youtube channels that do the same thing, and maybe 0.001 are worth watching, the rest is just same crap.

I stopped watching hardware channels on YT long time a go, you wont find anything good in there.

No, I don't watch them, precisely cos they use cringey clickbait tactics.

I regret ever buying my PS5, I barely have any games for it and those I have are now on PC.
PS5 will probably be my last PS console.
Will be Nintendo +PC only for me in the future.



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

The channel above is infamously bad, so yeah, I wouldn't click on it either lol.

Agreed. But he's the only dude I saw who did a comparison. And honestly, new version is better in every way. Dude is just salty it has a lower SSD space.

But I gave the most important parts: lighter and matte finish. 



The SKU with the smaller drive is now rolling out in the US:

For those who are wondering "why" this has happened... This is a good read on the DRAM and NAND market and why prices have increased on those commodity items.

And prices will continue to rise... So expect some more price crunching from console manufacturers.

So many pro-consumer moments in the industry lately, I don't even have time to count my blessings! 



Man, i would happily accept if tomorrow they come out and say that we will go back to Generation 7 consoles along with graphic, game prices, rare DLCs and no paid online for ps3.
Get 7 was last good one.
Since then we only got better graphic and nothing else and i dont rly care much about graphic, i care more about art style. Also loading wasnt issue on 360 and ps3 so loss of NVME isnt big of a deal.
