It’s about people having choice. I’m really quite pleased about the situation.” https://www.mcvuk.com/business-news/playstations-jim-ryan-on-ps5-pricing-next-gen-exclusivity-pandemic-uncertainty-and-ps4s-continuing-lifespan/ Upgrade path for free but only if you pay $80. Lol, all those arguments of multiple launch editions, lowest denominator console, chindigiri, smart delivery. All going up in smoke.

radicaldude Posted September 2, 2021 Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 Im pretty sure the PS4 version of the game would run on the ps5 via BC. They'll launch a *free* BC ps5 upgrade as well (in due course) Sony would not give (ofcourse) 2 versions of the game for $60 when they are selling the ps5 version alone for $70. Ps- I hope this cross gen thingy ends soon. Creates a lot of confusion when it comes to pricing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bold part explains why the ps5 version /upgrade costs money. They are selling the standalone ps5 version for $70 and you were expecting PS4 owners would get the same version for $60? As I have said, they PS4 version would run on the ps5 via BC and I'm sure they'll launch a free upgrade patch as well. Ps- Talk to r* about this (your model) as they are trying to milk the same game in 3 *different* generations. Anyways enough about pricing on this thread.

KnackChap Posted September 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 If I'm not wrong Jim Ryan posted a few times on IVG (when it was GI) during early PS3 era. Back then he was just a exec at sony uk(or Europe). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnK Posted September 2, 2021 Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 Lol he specifically mentioned “Upgrade path” for PS4 owners to get PS5 version for “free” Can be interpreted both ways things that are free don’t require any upgrade path & mention of upgrade path itself means that once you take that path ‘then’ it’s free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radicaldude Posted September 2, 2021 Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 Though I agree 5500 for both the versions is steep. That's COD BO CW level steep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KunjanPSD Posted September 2, 2021 Report Share Posted September 2, 2021 Jim Ryan is correct. No one should be disappointed after Sony already did a blatant 360 on GT7 being a Ps5 exclusive. That was false marketing, lying through the skin of your teeth, just to sell your product at launch. It's our fault for keeping our expectations high.
