I'd expect $500 ....  the parts that both Xbox and PS5 are using are not cheap at all.  

That's actually not as much as I was expecting.... That seems reasonable when you factor in all the stuff this thing can do.

Sony has revealed the PS5 release date and PS5 price during its Showcase livestream, after a months-long wait for the full picture on its next-gen games console. The PlayStation 5 will release in the US, Japan, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand and South Korea on November 12, with the rest of the world getting the console on November 19. The full version of the PS5 system will cost $499.99US. The PS5 Digital Edition, meanwhile, which will not feature a disc drive, will cost a leaner $399.99US. This will release at the same time.

Same US pricing as Xbox. Let's hope they get the Canadian pricing in at $600 too.

In a Monday morning surprise, Microsoft revealed plans to spend $7.5 billion on the acquisition of ZeniMax Media — the parent company of game publisher Bethesda Softworks, which makes "Fallout," "DOOM," and "The Elder Scrolls," among many other games.

Costco has their pre-order up now. Includes an extra controller, Spider-Man, and another, pre-loaded, game for $809. It's not a deal, per se, but you get the extra game free and saves having to look for another controller. 

Wally was 806 all in for same minus the Spidey game.

Is the pre loaded game the Astro bot game?  If so then it's more so a tech demo then a full fledge game. 

The extra controller is a good thing to get as the PS5 is not backwards compatible with the PS4 controller.  The xbox series x and s can both use xbox one controllers on all its games.
