HERE WE GO! Y para completar el 3x1 nos hemos venido arriba y vamos a tirar la casita por la ventana: el jugador llega cedido por una temporada y a cambio nosotros cedemos a Tom Ford y Smith sin opción de compra. Oferta irrechazable.
HERE WE GO! Hemos enviado un fax al @FCBarcelona_es con nuestra oferta de traspaso: 4 entradas para el concierto de Bad Bunny de mañana, una suscripción anual al ABC y una bolsa de pipas. Esperamos ansiosos la respuesta para preparar el ‘announce’.
Done my head in this but then in fairness I remember Klopp’s celebrations in the Europa League game at Anfield against Dortmund and maybe it’s just what passionate fellas do
Your PS5 cost $399 when you bought it in 2020. Starting this week, that same console costs $599.99. The Pro is $899.99.
Every console in history got cheaper over time. The PS5 is the first to go in the other direction. And the reason has nothing to do with gaming.
The world’s memory chips (the RAM inside your phone, laptop, and PlayStation) are made by just three companies: Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron. Over the past year, all three have been shifting their factories toward AI.
In October 2025, OpenAI signed deals with Samsung and SK Hynix to lock up about 40% of global memory chip production for its AI data centers. According to Micron, building one unit of the specialized memory AI chips need uses up three units of the normal RAM that goes into a PlayStation or a laptop. Data centers are on track to eat 70% of every memory chip made on the planet this year.
RAM prices jumped over 170% in a single year. Sony blamed “continued pressures in the global economic landscape.” What they meant: AI companies are outbidding them for the same parts.
Hardware insider KeplerL2 leaked that it costs about $760 just to build one PS6. Kantan Games CEO Dr. Serkan Toto told GamesRadar a $999 version is “not impossible.” Over on the Xbox side, Sarah Bond called the next console a “very premium and high-end curated experience,” and leaks put the price at $1,200.
Selling consoles is only 32% of PlayStation’s money. The real cash comes from the 30% cut Sony takes every time you buy a game on the PlayStation Store, plus 50 million people paying for PS Plus, Sony’s monthly gaming subscription. That subscription alone brings in $3.8 billion a year. The average PS5 owner has spent $846 on games and services since buying the console. On the PS4, that number was $669.
A $1,000 console means fewer people buy in. Fewer owners means fewer people buying $70 games and monthly subscriptions. Sony learned this the hard way. The PS3 launched at $599 in 2006 and it took them years to recover. The PS5 Pro is already $300 past that price.
Console gaming was always the cheap way to play compared to building a PC. A $1,000 PlayStation costs the same as a decent gaming desktop. And Sony’s entire business model depends on that gap staying wide.
