    - Basic case - $27.49
    - PSU 600 W 80+ Gold - $51.99
    I'm from Europe I tried to build this PC and it ended up being $638 before tax. (Yes, we have some sales now) So I threw in an Xbox Controller, basic keyboard, mouse and Windows license and it's still 40 bucks cheaper than the PS5 Pro price in Europe!!!
    *The PS5 Pro has the same processor as the regular PS5. In real tests, it is similar to the Ryzen 5 3600. The Ryzen 5 5500 has the same performance, but is a generation younger. Yes it's very slow by today's standards, but so is the PS5 Pro. Of course we can use a better processor, but so can the PS5 Pro. But it didn't. But they still charge $700! Shameless!

    700 US dollars for the console, 30 US dollars for the stand, 80 US dollars for the disc drive oh wait scalpers got them first and now you have to pay about double the price of that, and probably another 70 US dollars for Kingdom Hearts 4 if it doesn't end up on PlayStation 6 instead.

    “Expensive components being in the PS5 Pro” Yeah still not getting it and if that’s true it’s Sonys fault for that price. There could be many reasons being theorised but that graphics from the pro is not a leap and not worth it. It’s not like you go from PS3 to PS4. Not to mention no vertical stand is such an insult. They could’ve at least build a cheap one but it just looks like they’e turning into apple atp

    • @Daltonisntabot

      The PS5 os actually just using modified AMD Zen 2 CPUs. Which os heavily discounted as they built and put the CPU Die in themselves,not pre built like the consumers get.
      Really, they get a lot of things much cheaper than us and the fact the components aren't better says a lot, using Zen 2 because it's cheap and can be sold in bulk.

    Sony recently went ahead and removed Concord from everyone's libraries. Yes, the servers are already dead, but the fact that they can just do it willy-nilly even for people who bought the game is scary. It re-emphasizes that you don't really "own" a game if you buy it digitally. The fact that they aren't having the disk drive in their premium console shows that they see the future as an all-digital one which is not a good sign.

  • @kev1nno
    @kev1nno 5 дней назад +14

    I also think it was a bold move to state clearly in the presentation that players prefer higher framerates over better graphics (3/4 times), and then go and make a new expensive device that improves graphics instead of improving the thing that's actually bottlenecking games' framerates most of the time - the CPU. They did their market analysis and just went "Nah" XD

    • @Daltonisntabot
      @Daltonisntabot 4 дня назад

      Hey, those AMD Zen 2 are probably dirt cheap and easy to customize to make it 'up to spec'. Lets not forget GDDR6 is obviously faster than DDR5 and that latency? It's fine, don't worry about it. 16GB is enough to share between the CPU and GPU.
      I have to assume as Sony gets the parts themselves, not completed, obviously, it's even cheaper. They normally sell the console at a loss. Imagine if it was 600 still or 550 or something. I assume people would probably be happy, especially with the stand and disc drive, maybe two PS5 controllers. Make it worth it.

    • @Thesakuraharona
      @Thesakuraharona 4 дня назад

      No kidding. I will take performance most days over graphics, unless I have a powerful enough machine to balance both. For example, baulders gate 3 on steam deck, I am running mostly with low graphics to improve the performance, and it still looks really good. The games just have to be developed with that in mind.

    Sony has shown that they have the ability to delete your own digital copies of games from your own console without your consent. And I don't just mean they take it down from the store, I mean they can literally go into your Playstation and just uninstall your shit and look at everything you have on the console.
    The PS5 Pro has no disc drive out the box, so no physical. Only digital.
    Think about this.

  • @nightfallalicorn4246
    @nightfallalicorn4246 5 дней назад +3

    The important phase is "temporary licence". But you are 100% correct, Cynical. It seems a new console with no disc drive has finally woke people up. Many great games that people still love to play are being lost to the ages. If a PS1, PS2 and PS3 can run on PC through emulation. Sony has no excuse with backward compatibility. It's clear they are doing this so people re-buy the games on next generation console. I have Kingdom hearts 1.5 and 2.5 on both PS3 and PS4 since PS3 wouldn't work on PS4. And of course, I want to own the stuff I buy. Not have as a temporary licence.

    i feel like they just keep forgetting abt the lil kids who have a ps5 and when they get a game its from a gift or family buying them a copy at a store
    like what will they do then?? they'll just move to nintendo who's always be behind yeah, but at least they're affordable
    if the console is a thousand dollars and the games are a hundred, who's the public then? even casual dad gamers won't give a shit anymore because they can't afford it either

    The lack of disc drive isnt the issue. From a manufacturing standpoint, it makes more sense to make 1 system and a small attachment for those that want physical (myself included), rather than 2 whole systems where 1 could be in danger of not selling that much clogging up warehouses if theres an error in judging the market. The problem is that the Pro is still too expensive despite that fact, even though it should drive costs down.

Sure some feedback not immediately implemented the next patch, but they still implemented in the future patch (Star rail especially since it's making many people say "Genshin could not" because that game have many feature that genshin don't have at the time and people been asking for ages). Again i'm not trying to start an argument, i'm just a little confused and curious because as some one that have been playing their game since a long time, they're know for listening the player feedback to improve their game.

As for PS5 Pro, it's literally just a more expensive PS5 Digital Deluxe. Anyone who wants to buy that (and the disk drive) is just looking to burn money.
