The console will be available only without a disc drive which has to be bought separately, same goes for the stand

For what it's worth the new GPU is a decent upgrade and it will support that PSSR AI upscaling tech they've been working on. I still don't think it's worth it, especially if you already have a PS5 or a relatively modern PC. This seems more aimed at people who have an outdated PC and haven't bought a current gen console yet.

The price is still nuts, though. I would be interested to see how well it sells because with everything being so damn expensive now I would imagine not many people are racing to spend $700 on a console (with only one game included lol).

It could be justified if it wasn't so locked down. Like you get high end hardware, just so you can be sony's paypig.
