I think most people understand those benefits when they stated non-proprietary SSDs will drop in price more than a proprietary option. That's always been the case and we still had people arguing otherwise, the point people you are responding to were making.
That's not just a Sony thing lol. Prices just went up for games, like they did during the transition from PS2/Xbox → 360/PS3 to $59.99 from $49.99. Who do you credit for [ripping you off with] that?
"Hot swapping drives like we do our wives!" "Expensive ass hoes."You have the choice to buy other games that do not cost $70. You do not have the choice to buy a different SSD expansion for Xbox Series. You've buy Seagate's or you buy nothing.
So why are you here?
Hardly ever paid for a 360 gameBut we can't talk about that on here
Making a point and never arguing about what would be cheaper in the end.
And what point is that?
That what one makes of you in one hand another makes of you in another and its all the same to me as comes out my bank just the same. POUND NOTES. £££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££
Don't buy games day one, as with SSDs, which have went down a lot since the PS5s launched. Pretty simple.
I know, but millions buy games day one and first few weeks so my point still stands.
You are talking about your bank, do you buy them day one? If you do, you must think it's worth it. I haven't bought a few games day one because I don't think they are worth £69.
I think your keyboard is stuck on the pound key. Spend some of that to replace it.
Wow you are getting silly. Like I'm the only person that as deviated from the subject in a thread. I was just putting my thoughts on a valid point that a poster had said.
Cost of Living Crisis.
Yeah ZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzA valid point? It was pure deflection.
Have I got sub service for you!
You got it then. You are quick.DeepEnigma is right. You really need to get that fixed.
Internal storage for consoles, sure. For so many of their other devices, handhelds, music players, digital cameras...they've done proprietary storage stuff that negatively impacted consumers by trying to force adoption of their formats as standard by using their position in the consumer electronics market and locking out less affordable options. Honestly, at the end of the day none of them are all that pro-consumer.
The only one I know of, was the Vita. And that was probably due to cost and needing to recoup, much like how cheap the S is with low internal storage compared to the X, and external storage upgrades cost almost as much as the console. To recoup costs.
I don't own toy box consoles but if I had to pick one based on value for money I would definitely go for the xbox because of game pass. PS5 will definitely cost more in the long run even with cheaper ssds and there is no arguing that.In summary:
This is now no longer a thread about SSD's, so well done.
It's about Game Pass now.
Yea saw that the ADATA heat dissipation element is just an aluminium strip, seems it does the work but I like more the Nextorage one.
Agreed. Anyone know some good UK deals?
I love how this assumes MS aren't the ones trying to price gouge you to make the profit. MS want the high margin product and control otherwise they wouldn't have gone proprietary in the first place.
And why would MS sign for some small licencing fee? They know it isn't high volume and MS want to take home a nice profit via high margins. Just like they do with low volume $180 xbox controllers. Having it being proprietary lets you control who can make it and MS control the price and margin they get.
