yeah.

i have a PC that is quite capable and should keep me going for another 2-3 years. i'll get a slim console once my PC is struggling.

i did pre order an Xbox Series X but it died after 4 days. sounds like the PS5 is riddled with problems too. plus that thing is UGLY and i don't want to have to look at it. hopefully the Slim model isn't another monstrosity but i am not filled with optimism after the PS4 Pro + PS5. seems Sony has lost their minds when it comes to designing a console.

I'm waiting for the console to actually resemble the price it should be instead of the almost $900 Sony is charging for it here.

If that's through a slim model, a price drop or sale I don't really care.
 
Sure, not buying either anytime soon so......
I just don't see much in games that I feel I need to play, maybe in a year or two when the library gets more fleshed out but until then 🤷‍♂️
 
Probably not. I'm literally just waiting for the moment stock is readily available, and I'll buy one.

I would be interested to see a Slim model down the line, though. The PS5 is pretty hefty. I'm personally in the camp that loves the design, but I always prefer Slim models. I love my Slim PS4, I think it looks sleek.
 
New consoles are good for 7 years, why wait for a slim so you can use it for 4 years.

Buy now if you have the money even if you have to wait for games that interest you.
 
well, i have not even seen a ps5 in real life... why would i worry about a slim model... i am more "worried" about the PS5pro...

Well, yes. But mostly because the games aren't there yet for me. So I'm gonna couple the coming of a slim, with the right games.

Also, I got a Switch recently, I have a PC, and I'm not even close to done with my PS4.

So, no need for next gen quite yet.
 
Are you kidding..? Slim model will take at least 2,5 - 3 years before it's released. For example:
  • Original PlayStation 3 (2006)
  • PlayStation 3 Slim (2009)
I'll be happy if I can get a regular PS5 before summer 2021 :lollipop_astonished:
 
Nope, just waiting for the PS5 to become available to buy at all.

I've never owned a slim model of any console (except for a DS Lite), I just don't give a shit about the size of the box.

are you nuts a slim ps5 won't be avalable for YEARS and I need a next gen console like yesterday :(

don't hold back the future!
 
For Series X yeah for PS5 I can't anymore my Pro broke but I can't find the PS5 in stock. I don't think the slims will be out for about 3 years.
 
I'd dont know if I can wait for a PS5 slim. I most definitely want a slim version though cuz that shit is butt ugly right now
 
waiting for a hardware revision, games and them tools. Right now if I get a next gen console ill be playing last gen games exclusively.
 
Yeah, the PS5 is too damn huge and ugly, and has no interesting exclusives, but will be stacked with them ~3 years from today when Slim shows up.

XSX on the other hand is more OK to my taste, but it's still a shame MS didn't made a digital-only console, which should be abouthalf of the size. Nevertheless I'll be getting one due to the LG promo, but if there will be a Slim model somwhere down the line, preferably similar to 1X design, I'll most likely switch to it.
 
Yes, not going to be buying launch consoles when I know that there will be Pro/Slim versions. Launch lineup is crap for both consoles anyway.

There is basically no downsides if you're patient. I envy some of the more patient gamers really. You will get a better deal down the line with price cuts and bundles, and plus a bunch of games already out. In a way though I've been forced to be patient with the stock being gone instantly, so maybe I'll actually hold off this time. My PS4 is still going strong, and I'm not too picky over graphics.
 
i can't wait for slim model. i have to travel next month and don't know how i can do that with my ps5. any suggestions ?

You just said all the exact things I have been thinking. A digital only Xbox would be amazing but it wouldn't be half the size haha
 
Nah, i can definitely settle down with a curvy model too.

Yep. I don't care about Xbox and the PS5 is hideus, so I'm waiting for both a slim model and more exclusive titles to come out, as those are my main reason to buy the console as I play multiplats on PC.
