    Hey IGN!

    … How many PS5s are selling?

    After their price raise, and subsequent uh … you could maybe say ‘controversial new policies’?

    Look at the ball, children, look at this one, over here, not the other one!

    Media literacy: Wait, why are focusing on this, instead of that?

      They expect this title to do better SEO. As simple as. The content of the article is meaningless

    Base model is now $789, while the Steam Machine starts at $1,049. Not really much of a surprise…

      There’s people who bought steam decks for £350 who can sell them now used for a profit after using them for only a couple years. Who needs gold?

    this is how It’s supposed to work though, price rises dampen demand.

    Maybe because they’re shipping more steam machines than ever before?
