  • So, they increased the price to buy into their ecosystem with a second price hike this year, now they are asking a grand for a handheld, they must really want out of gaming, I know the tariffs suck but this just comes across as too much.

    It’s $999 plus taxes in most places, then you need Game Pass Ultimate to stream games to this thing, something they are using as a selling point, that’s a couple hundred per year and like any streaming service subject to sudden increases. I just don’t understand where they thing people are getting this money, there are signs people have already started pulling back.

    The Series S which was under powered according to a lot of devs even on release, is now 400 dollars for 500GB, 450 for 1TB, then the Series X now ranges 600 Digital, 650 Disc, 730 2TB, 800 2TB special color. As someone that has preferred Xbox since the OG, I think they’ve lost it, at least for now the PS Pro is 750 and objectively the better.

    Oh look… another subscription I will cancel when my Black Friday deal ends, I will not be nickle and dime’d to death by legacy media for just a handful of shows, I can get entertainment in other ways.

    Peacock’s yearly plans will see similar increases, with Peacock Premium now priced at $109.99 per year (up from $79.99) and Premium Plus costing $169.99 (up from $139.99). Peacock Premium from $7.99 to $10.99 per month, while its ad-free Premium Plus plan will go from $13.99 per month to $16.99 per month.

    It’s quoted out of order, but it’s the increases.


  • Their Instagram page says Chef is not saved, but the social media pages are still working thanks to the outpouring of support and money. They are continuing to work behind the scenes to save the show.

    Just to clarify!! Chef is still unemployed!!! Some press is circulating the that Chefs Cooking Show is saved. Because of your help we are able to keep Cheffy on socials for the time being but we are still working behind the scenes on saving his cooking show. The team is taking this one step at a time and the outpouring of love and donations has meant the world to us! We will keep y’all updated on the cooking show but Chef is still available to be an extra in movies and is open to commercial work! Fank yew evwybody!

    Edit: My info could be outdated because I don’t follow their socials, just the shorts that come through my feed, but as far as I can tell that’s the last one they posted to Instagram.
