PS5 prices going up this late in the generation feels wrong, and we don’t sugarcoat it. George and RGT dig into Sony’s newly announced PS5, PS5 Pro, and PS Portal price increases, what’s being blamed (tariffs, supply pressure, RAM demand), and why it lands so badly when players already feel the squeeze. If you’ve been waiting to buy a PlayStation 5 or wondering whether a PS5 Pro is still worth it, this one is for you.

On the gear side, RGT brings the week’s most practical upgrade: the Lenovo Legion Go S, a SteamOS handheld gaming PC aimed at entry-level buyers who want Steam without the Windows hassle. We talk screen feel, controls, ergonomics, fan noise, battery life, charging speed, and why a simple login-and-play experience matters. Then it’s back to what we’re actually playing, from Bang Average Football to the strangely addictive Easy Delivery Company, a PS1 style delivery sim with real survival management tension.

We also hit the wider platform mood: Xbox retiring the “This Is An Xbox” marketing campaign, what that says about brand confusion, and how cloud gaming should fit around consoles, not replace them. Finally, Hades 2 news brings some joy with bonus content and quality of life improvements on the horizon, plus we share details on meeting up at OLL in Norwich.
