$700, and the side by sides look barely different, from my perspective. The chat seemed to have the same opinion.

Sony’s problems are twofold:

They are charging an absurd amount of money for a game console
They are selling a game console that has practically no first party games for it.

If they had plenty of the latter, they could weather this. But there are still games releasing for the PS4, and they have had 1, maybe 2 PS5 releases that would qualify as first party this year (that don’t bubble down to PC).
