No, these aren’t photographs from the PlayStation 4’s launch – they’re from this week in South Korea, where a price cut has seen local gamers lining up to get their hands on Sony’s cut-price goods. The platform holder’s discounted its entire line of hardware in the country, so a PS4 Pro can now be purchased for 348,000 South Korean Won ($311), as opposed to 498,000 KRW ($444). Meanwhile, the PS4 Slim can be bought 248,000 KRW ($221) as opposed to 378,000 KRW ($337), and PlayStation VR is down to 298,000 KRW ($266) from 448,000 KRW ($400).

Big savings, and it’s brought the public out in droves. Kotaku reports, via Afternoon News, that there have been sell-outs – particularly of the PS4 Pro, which is in high demand. There are more pictures through the link, but the general theme is that these are the kind of photographs you’d associate with a new console launch – and not necessarily a price promotion. Then again, these are impressive savings across the board.
