New to the Third World economy? Sony will rise it too, of course. It's called inflation.

Go research what stuff costs here in Argentina, you'll go crazy. Go look at how much games are going to cost too with Steam's currency change for the region. There you go.

New to the Third World economy? Sony will rise it too, of course. It's called inflation.

Go research what stuff costs here in Argentina, you'll go crazy. Go look at how much games are going to cost too with Steam's currency change for the region. There you go.

No sense, the inflation in Brazil for 2023 is being projected at 4.65%. At this price point, it is impossible to recommend Xbox over the similar priced PS5 or the much less expensive Switch. Microsoft gave up competing in the Brazilian console market.

In the past, I've recommended the combo of Series S and GamePass to many lapsed gamers of my age, but I cannot do it anymore. If you're a Brazilian who enjoys Xbox games, you should get a gaming PC.
