That’s a next-gen console for less than a Nintendo Switch or a PS4 Pro. Nice.

The Xbox Series S has apparently been revealed, and as expected, it’s both cute and cheaper than its big brother the Xbox Series X.

To nobody's surprise, very few people are playing EA's new 3V3 hero shooter Rocket Arena and I can't believe I got up at 2AM just to preview the game in July.

Forget about caviar, diamonds or a new Ferrari in the garage. If you really want to be the most annoying humble-braggart on the block, nothing will annoy everyone around you more than a collection of video games that were bought on day one of their launch. Interactive entertainment doesn’t come cheap, and even though the $60 price mark has held firm for many a year now, that number will jump upwards as the next-generation of consoles pop up.

According to a new rumour, Sony and Microsoft haven't shot their gaming loads yet. Even with recent showcases revealing their first-party offerings, it seems that the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 may still have system-seller software locked and loaded.

With a newer and shinier generation of consoles on the way, those prices may soon be increasing to match costs. 2K Games has already got the ball rolling with the next NBA 2K title charging a $70 premium for PS5 and Xbox Series X versions, a new benchmark that other publishers are likely to follow in the next-gen days to come. Ubisoft on the other hand, won’t be increasing their prices. For now at least.

How much do you reckon these machines will go for? How much are you willing to pay, and what do you think a fair price is for new gaming hardware?

If you’ve got more cents than common sense, you can head into Valorant right now to grab a $100 skin set, an ultra-tier assortment of pretend clothing that also turns your guns into a dragon.
