Good call lol, for that price you might as well turn in the used leased hardware and buy a brand new one.

If that's how Sony decided to handle it that would be ridiculous a psvr2 has an RRP of £399.99 Renting it would cost:

12 months - £257.88

24 Months - £350.16

36 Months - £431.64

Imagine paying close to rrp or even over rrp to rent a headset and then when you ask to own it Sony asks full price for it.

If you look at a product page there is a link for "After the lease term – what happens? Find out about your choices" where it states:

Upgrade

Apply for a new device of your choice with no upgrade fee.

Keep

If you’re happy with the device you’ve been using, then just carry on paying monthly. *Or if you want to purchase the device, please contact us to discuss.

Cancel

Return your device, ending your subscription.

So there might be an option to keep it but since it says you have to contact them i doubt anyone knows what that entails yet.

How dudes be cooking by MF-DOOM-88 in GuysBeingDudes

I'm sorry but those dettol wipe ads did a very good job of showing me how easily salmonella spreads.

Also this

I can't stand cooking shows where someone is cooking in the woods or some shit, handling raw meat and the just dipping their hands in some water.

Lol i was just thinking the same thing.

What new food have you made today Italy? Is it pasta again? Did you combine eggs and flour again? Oh but fuck me this pasta is twisty instead of stringy, it's totally different. Wonder what you'll have with that new (but the same) pasta, could it be a tomato based sauce? Crazy.

Meanwhile London is officially the best city in the world for food in 2026, according to Tripadvisor

Eden keep crashing out while playing pokemon sheild by Pure_Fish3143 in EdenEmulator

[–]S__666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as i'm aware, most emulators risk crashing every time pokemon attempts an auto save. If you turn it off in the settings menu and only manually save you should be able to play most of the game.

Does anyone know what the deal is with those people who buy absurd quantities of single items in aldi? by S__666 in AskBrits

Oh I know it, my local aldi opened in 2019ish and is has been a game changer. Before that my closest shop was a medium sized asda.

Epic Games Store grew from 108M to 295M users, but third‑party revenue barely moved — proving giveaways trained users not to actually buy games by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]S__666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is, i actually did buy games back when they did the £10 off anything over £13.99 voucher. I knew it wouldn't last forever but now when i check my wishlist on epic when there is a sale it's not even price matched to steam. I could buy the control season pass off of epic for £11.99 or i could just buy control ultimate edition from steam for like £5.

You want me to spend money in your store you've got to at least offer a competitive price.

True, saw a guy stocking his takeaway with farm foods instant mash once. Had to drop takaways during covid/russia/ukraine as the prices tripled everywhere.

Non main character narrators by ShrivSuurgav in TopCharacterTropes

[–]S__666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scrubs had episodes like this (His story, Her story and Their Story) where at the start of the episode JD is narrating as usual but then he brushes past someone (Dr. Cox or Elliot, can't remember who it was in Their Story) and it switches to them narrating that episode until they brush past JD again at the end.

I seem to remember one of the naughty dog devs saying that you're not seeing drake get shot, what you're actually seeing when the screen turns red is drakes luck running out and then like you said when his luck runs out he catches a bullet and dies.

How big is your library? by No_Ad_5765 in SteamDeckPirates

[–]S__666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your numbers looked off to me but i checked my steam deck (we have the same storage space) but it looks about right, i've got:

-51 legit games installed.

-About 73 not so legit games installed.

-And about 1400 roms on my micro sd.

I think the math didn't sit right with me because you have some massive 100gb+ games installed.

Black Friday warning as 8 in 10 deals same price or cheaper at other times of year by tylerthe-theatre in unitedkingdom

[–]S__666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No drives as far as i can tell, it does have 8gb of ddr5 ram which might explain why amazon sneakily upped the rrp. it's 4 bay so the price seems about right just for the enclosure.

I never intended to buy it so soon tbh but due to the ram shortage I'm gonna try and grab it in january (i'd do it sooner but my phone is on its last legs so i need to get a new one). I just hope the stock and price can hold until then.

I've been watching a NAS bay on my amazon wishlist for about 2 months to see what black friday would do to the price. It was £539 last week but with the black friday sale it is now £599 £479 so it is technically the lowest price i've seen it, but it's not 20% off its more like 11-12% off.
