      At that point, I think it's probably a good thing. Basically a massive warning sign to not buy that piece of crap. 2$ an hour though is absolutely stupid. Not sure how much your expenses of taxes and grocery's are, but I hope your minimum wage is increased, cause 2$ is just dumb.

      Its that Sony greed for you... they even changed the top faceplace insert locations to make you even buy new faceplates... let alone remove stand and disc drive... the disc drive your PS 1 2 3 4 5 had... well you are not getting it. And you pay more... just wait to see how Sony will rob the world with the PS6/PS6 "Pro" scam unless we boycott Sony... right now. Mark my words.

      @ Yeah I agree, and don’t get me wrong I totally love the idea of upscalers like dlss for mid and low end rigs cause they can be usable for many years to come but everything would be fine playing native if devs would not be lazy. PS6 will have the same marketing strategy remakes, PSSR 2.0 and probably will still not hit 4k60 without compromises.

      So tired of people whining about optimization as if they don't bother.... PS5 is literally about an RX 6700 GPU wise and you're running games that are coming out on PCs with way better hardware, sometimes even with ray tracing. It runs games quite well for what it is

    • @cyberathlete
      @cyberathlete 15 дней назад +1

      What you're saying is that an RTX 2070 should run all modern games at 60fps, 4k, ray tracing on, high detail if the developers knew how to code better? Essentially you're looking at a 2070 in the PS5 and there are some games that need a 4080 to hit 60fps comfortably with ray tracing on.

      Playing stuff like Wanted:Dead and Stranger of Paradise feels so refreshing after all these walking corridor simulator games that think they're movies. Lol, even God of War used to be so frantic even if it was relatively more straightforward compared to Devil May Cry or especially Ninja Gaiden.
      Luckily we have indies giving us quick experiences as well as grander stuff like Kena Bridge of Spirits. And now even the Chinese and Korean devs are coming in swinging all of the sudden with full paid releases rocking business practices that aren't as awful as what's became the norm (I fear they're simply building good faith to milk us dry later, but that's another conversation). Stellar Blade, and Wukong have been a remarkable change of pace.

    GTA5 was basically a gen 8 game that was released on the 7th gen systems. And they struggled to hit 25fps. The intended version of the game then got "remastered" and released with the 8th gen consoles a year later. Rockstar make their money twice (then milk it for 10+ years). Mark my words, the exact same thing will happen with GTA6 and the PS5 / PS6.

Then, rerelease it like you said for the (PS6 ig). I wonder if Sony and Microsoft have like, some kind of deal or something with Rockstar because it's one of the biggest games. To purposely release it to entice people to buy the newer console, so they can have a better experience. It's all bs, I just got a pc last year cause of all the bs.

    The no disc drive is the main killer for this console, like the people that are getting this most likely have a collection of ps4/ps5 discs no? And it worries me about the future for video game discs in general
    Edit: People should have options when purchasing video games (digital or physical). Being tied to only PlayStation’s digital front is a negative for everyone. If I someone wants to buy red dead 2, they would have to pay a full $60 digitally or wait for a sale, or just buy it physically on sale or pre owned for a lower price. I don’t have a problem with pc since you’re not tied to one storefront, you have multiple options (steam, gog, epic games, Xbox, etc.). I mean at least you can still add a disc drive to the console but c’mon that’s an extra $80 on top of the $700.

      The PS4/Xbone were _extremely anemic_ on release, the Pro/1X finally gave it adequate GPU power but kept the poor CPU performance the same. The main change with those consoles were the switch to x86 and to more modern workflows comparable to PC, graphics & compute wise it wasn't that much of an effective jump. You really could build a decent PC comparable to a PS4 for the same budget.
      The PS5/SeX were actually a crazy good value, nowadays they're not amazing but still fairly decent. You couldn't build a PC for the price of a PS5 on release (MSRP, not scalp pricing), nowadays it's hard but doable.

    Sony really said "pay $700 for slightly better shadows and no disc drive" while most of us are still waiting for actual PS5 exclusives worth playing. The fact that they're charging extra for the stand and disc drive on their "premium" console is wild. At this point, just save the money for GTA 6 or invest in a good OLED TV - you'll notice a bigger difference in your gaming experience

    Here in Australia, it's about $1,200 AUD just for the pro console and 1 controller.
    An extra controller = $120.
    The plastic stand = $50.
    The disc drive (if you can even get one) = $160.
    On top of that, the games are anywhere between $60 to $120 each, depending on how broke you wanna feel afterwards.
    And we can't forget about all those jucy PlayStaion online services that will set you back another $21 per month!!
    If some poor fellow Aussie wantted to get the best out of the PS5 Pro, it's gonna easily set them back $2,000, maybe even $2,500 if they add in a few more AAA games and accessories.
    Edit: Also, the PSVR2 headset is $880 AUD. More than the base PS5, which is just $800. So make that over $3,000 AUD if we're to go all out on PS5 stuff.

      Nah saving up for a gaming PC, or spending half the cost of a PS5 on a steam deck or ROG ally instead, those are the smart moves. Consoles are more expensive long term due to lack of game sales and the subscription to play online, not to mention a PC is also capable of doing everything else a PC can do, so your getting better gaming at a long term discount with added utility of the spectrum of a computers use cases and the couple hundred more up front pays for itself and far beyond in no time. For about 1400 you can get a much more powerful gaming PC, that you can upgrade as you see fit, and buy games on sale for $5 and not pay to use your own internet, and yeah it's more money but comparing the benefits to the cost up front it is an astronomical downside to be a console owner.

    While that's true, it misses the point entirely. If you spend a premium price, you should get a premium product.
    You are not buying a premium product with the PS5 Pro, and for a few hundred more, you can get a PC that offers better features, more flexibility, and more freedom than a console will for the foreseeable future.
    You are spending $700 on a piece of hardware that is sold piecemeal without the stand and drive, when you can get a close enough product for half the price.

What metters Is the fun you have with the games rather than graphics alone. It's not like we're playing the games at 15 fps with pixelated graphics though, we're playing very good games with more than decent performance and resolution. To tell you something, i dug out my PS2 back because silent Hill shattered memories got my interest and still, I'm enjoying it. This run to graphical greatness Is pointless as we are getting minimal improvement in time, also count that we still have very few games out.

    Me and my mates were bored and talked about the ps5 pro, how it functions and if we can build our own one from scratch (using my countries pricing) and all new parts.
    We got this list
    *ryzen 7 5700, A520 and 16gb ram combo (R5000) ($287)
    *700W psu (R1300) ($75)
    *1tb ssd (R1250) ($72)
    *case and fans (R1500) ($86)
    *GPU RX7800 xt (R1100) ($633)
    I just realised how expensive the ps5 pro is here. our shops sell them for R20 000 or $1151

    Didn't Sony already try this? Major deja vu

      Thing Is, the ps3 initially included other OS installation such as Linux and the entire PlayStation 2 emotion engine included. Literally Two consoles in One so the price was kinda justified. This One Is a scam
