People are hacking PS5s to mine crypto currency... this means good luck getting one if you don't have one.

Alright gang, I need some PS3 help.
I had to unplug and move my PS3 (which had a disc in it) and now that I've plugged it back in, I'm getting no lights at all. No red off light, no green light, not even the yellow light. No lights. It was just working, and now it won't work. I tried different outlets with the same plug and I can't even get the red light.
It's a 60 gig fat PS3 from 2009. I've tried flicking the switch in the back back-and-forth.
Any advice? I know that's a long time to have a console, but I've taken really, really good care of it and use it regularly. I also have DLC and games on there that are no longer available for download (Turtles in Time, all the WWE 12 DLC).

Lol, it still just means that PS5s are going to be impossible to get for years. Eh, I don't know if I'd go that far. I'm sure there's going to be some usage by miners for anything powerful enough to handle mining going forward, that seems like just the world we're in now. But I don't see a high market for miners with a minimum $399 game console you'd never be able to use for anything else, especially when whatever hack allows this to happen will be patched by future updates like usual.

And not to get political or break rules but Biden has said he is going to look into why their hasn't been components to sell the machines and why this whole thing has been slow with Sony This is what happens with consoles the first six months or so they are out but it looks worse now cause of the scalpers just snapping shit up and selling them at a premium in a pandemic By the summer you should start seeing more availability for the PS5 and def by end of year it will be something people can pick up and purchase

If you're looking at more than vanilla Valhalla and you live in the US, now would seem to be the time. These AC games drop like a rock, wait 6 months and you'll get the ultimate edition for like 20 bucks.

I was kind of under that impression as well, but Origins and Odyssey both seem to be holding their prices pretty well (for all versions), so it may be a longer wait than expected.

I was curious so I just checked my receipts. I bought AC: Origins Gold for 19.99 on Sept 28, 2020, about 3 years after release date. I bought AC: Odyssey Gold for 19.99 on Oct 7, 2020, about 2 years after release I don't know when they first hit those prices, but that's when I bought them. Valhalla was only just released on 11/10/20 so it probably has a ways to go.

Now that I've remembered that other places to buy games from exist and I shouldn't just take the PS Store price as standard , I'll backtrack and say, yup unless you're desperate to play it (in which case you already have it) maybe you are better off waiting a bit longer.

If you're looking at more than vanilla Valhalla and you live in the US, now would seem to be the time. I typically wait like a year on these last few AC games to try them out. You get the ultimate editions on the cheap and even if you don't want the DLC, in another two months you can probably get the game for $20 but $36 isn't a bad price for what was a brand new game a few months ago It was just on sale for $40 2 weeks ago too

Those who plan on picking up FF7:R let us know. We can help you out if you need help.
Still one of the best games of last year. The combat system is unmatched.

Yo, Outriders seems really fun so far. If you’re into looter-shooters get on that demo, PS5 people.

CONGRATS and welcome to the club! I was just about to tag you to Question, am I stuck with the BS storage they give you or can I put 2TB on this shit like I did my PS4? Currently stuck with just the BS storage for PS5 games. They need to get working external hard drives out ASAP because I’m about out of room on my non-digital, and there’s a run of games coming over the next two months.
