Comment on PS6 and Xbox Project Helix "will start at a 50% higher price" than PS5 and Xbox Series X, predict analysts following Sony price hike – and $999 "is not impossible"

- The price Sony and MS pay for RAM will keep going up regardless of whether there is a hardware refresh or not. So keeping the old version won’t keep consumer costs down. If they don’t refresh the cost increases will just look sillier.
- They avoid having to search for time on older process nodes while fabs try to migrate to newer ones by updating periodically.

I meam to be fair maybe they should have to eat the stupidity of buying all the hardware stock out there for their ridiculous push for more and more datacenters, if the cost of current gen consoles kept rising years after launch maybe we could get more people on board with regulating AI and being against the idealogy of streaming everything including pcs and games.
