It's going to be a complete repeat because they learned nothing from the first time. This is only really appealing to console games as PC gamers have nothing to gain from buying one, but pricing it like a PC means console gamers won't buy them either. This is exactly what happened the first time.
The pc parts market is getting fucked by the AI rush, so maybe it’ll work out better.
