@gameshock2916 The reason it has to verify online is that Sony can make sure it's their disc drive and not foreign ones so they can possibly prevent piracy and invulnerabilities. Support with the disc drive won't go out as long as the ps5 can connect to the internet.
PS5 Pro has 2 TB SSD, no vertical stand, no disc drive. $700.00 plus tax which increases price further. $100.00 plus tax for an attachable UHD disc drive you can put on yourself. $25.00 plus tax for a vertical stand.

@@ninjanarutonightmanmy ASUS gaming laptop I bought back in February only cost me $1200 and it’s still more powerful and financially feasible than a PS5 Pro, and I don’t even game on PC all that much
700$ WITHOUT the disk drive, a stand, and no added storage is fucking criminal, the ps5s we have already are advanced enough, so much so that no games have pushed what the console's capable of to its limit, so half this shit added to this console will barely give us any noticeable changes.😭😭😭
I said that too man I seen the difference but it wasn’t a BIG difference if you have a good tv and a ps5 you really won’t see a major difference that even justifies for the price
This is what's crazy to me. We live in a world where base PS5 is such a powerful piece of hardware that developers just can't keep up with chasing the super high fidelity it's capable of. So dev cycles are ballooning out of control in terms of scope and length, and as a result there is barely any exclusive content on PS5 and let alone that much that begins to tap into the maximum potential of the hardware. So why, knowing that, would they not only release improved hardware at a level that is going to be completely unnoticeable in terms of enhancements to 99.5 percent of games, but also make it a price point that is bordering on a thousand bucks? It's just insane. But I have to admit it must have taken some insane level of masochism for them to go through with this lol.
Nawl there are gonna be some people who will definitely get it because they have the money too than they’ll boost about it 😂this is why this world is stupidly
You shouldn't feel sorry for people who want to get scammed by sony. If anything atleast wait till the price is more reasonable before getting one but some people just can't help but want to torch their money for sony.
Increasing the price by 40% for basically a 45% upgrade is far from worth it, not even factoring in the extra stuff youd have to get if you want the optimal experience
@@jessepejibbs3889 No, it is digital only for the base console... However, you can purchase a seperate disc drive for the damn console... That's right for an additional price you can OWN your games
I had my PS5 slim for almost a year now. The PS5 pro it’s gonna cost $700 + tax included. Mind you, that’s just the digital version console by itself. You’re right when you said to just get a PC at that point. I’m perfectly fine with the slim I have right now and don’t see a reason to upgrade.
Bro, $700 just for the new PS5 Pro is absolutely ridiculous. At this point, PlayStation is getting just as greedy as Disney when they brought MARVEL and STAR WARS.
As someone who hasn't played on console in years (PC now) and grew up with PS2 & PS3, the fact that you guys are buying a disc drive separately now is INSANE!
@@Ghost-Zilla12 Well it's crazy to me because the disc drive used to be part of the console. Now you gotta pay extra for it. That's just insane to me. PC doesn't really need a disc drive when you use Steam which is digital anyways.
@EduardoSabatino Everything is taking a shift towards digital. PC went digital, and so did media. There are only a few exceptions consoles are now shifting. PCs have the exact same situation PC games used to come on discs and are now gone, except console discs won't disappear the same way, which is good. The fact that Sony made new ways to continue supporting discs is amazing, and now you can get a disc drive if you want to. I'd still like getting disc drives with a console, though.
Lol no? All the pcs I’ve built for myself and family members have been between $500-$700. We ball on a budget but due to the games we play and what we use pcs for there’s no need to go to the high of a price point even. Plus the games still look amazing even without the highest quality pc parts
@@BluesttoSorry but that's just not true it costs 1000+ to make a PC roughly equivalent to a ps5. Every single one of your PCs would be dramatically weaker than a ps5 but better than a ps4 most likely.
@@Ghost-Zilla12 good thing I’m not trying to match ps5 specs. I’m building a reliable budget pc and so far have had no problems. Don’t need to spend +$1000 to fulfill the needs of an average gamer on a pc when 99% of the games run at 60fps 1080p on pretty much anything. It’s not hard
And the disc comes separately?!? Yea they gotta not do that. Either make the disc version cheaper or have the extra component cheaper. I can afford it yea but DAMN
Sony is testing the waters to gauge demand. If this sells out, it clearly indicates that people are willing to pay a premium price for the upcoming PlayStation 6. (Which it will)
Here in Germany the ps5pro cost 800€ if you compare the price with the ps5 Digital you can buy 2. For the external disc drive you have to pay 130€ and for the stand 30€. If I were to buy the PS5 Pro then the price would have to fall to €550. But if I were honest, €500 would be fairer because I would have to buy the external drive extra.
You could just trade in your OG PS5, and pay the difference for the Pro. The PS5 Pro is simply just an enthusiast device to play games at better performance. Its really no different than upgrading a PC or getting a new IPhone 15 max, if the price point is too much, just stick with a base PS5. If you already have the PS slim with the disc drive it is compatible with the Pro. They're selling this for profit off the bat.
I like how he gave the analogy of the parents. I purposely waited for the PS5 pro because around this time last year I was hearing rumors about a Pro so I thought that waiting another year and just saving up would be smarter. Now I’m staring down at a $700 console completely baffled. Personally I’ve already gone down the digital gaming pipeline, SF6, One Piece Odyssey, etc. If I get the slim it would be bundled with Spider-Man 2 which would also be a digital download. At that point I’d have a disc drive but for what, GTA 6, Black Myth Wukong, DB Sparkling Legends, and that new bleach game? My partner has advised me to just go with the pro since moving forward games will prioritize working on that and honestly I’ve considered it especially because of the extra terabyte of data. These games listed alone will each up a massive chunk. I’m still conflicted. If Sony knocked $100 off then it’s a no brainer but $700 is just ridiculous to me.
i think the bigges problem is the fact that people go and buy 5-10 of them knowing theres a limited amounts(which was the problem when the ps5 came out) so they can resell them for a lot more, meaning that they saw this move and how hard people whete getting out of it so this is backlash for those that made that move affecting the rest of the comminuty, also the ones that when on and bought it from them are also to blame, if people would've not done any of this moves then we wouldnt be in this position.
I'm happy with my regular digital ps5 and im going to hold onto it for a long time. $400 and it eas worth it. The worst thing I can say was getting home safety without getting rob and luckily that didn't happen
$700 for a Pro that is the same as the original with no disc drive, no added storage is crazy to me. I'd rather stick to the original with 2tb ssd. That's all I need
Only thing I care about is the stand being extra that's crazy but I feel like they want people to lay it flat so the cooling works better. Your not spending that money on just the power. It comes with 2tb as well. And no disk drive, so what. Disk need to be less and less. Digital is the way to go.
If you own a ps5 right now, buying the pro is worth it I believe because you can trade it similar to apple trade in, £\$700 is crazy if you don’t own a ps5 to trade in
Im not trying to necessarily start the fanboy wars, but this can Prime Nintendo and Microsoft up unbelievably so. Switch 2 realistically launches $399 but could he as high as $499 and people will praise it as the greatest thing of all time especially after seeing this unbelievable mistep from Sony. Microsoft could do a holiday price cut on the series x or do a game pass bundle thing and clean house or game pass on PC marketing push I hope so badly switch 2 is getting its first little reveal this month so it can start up competition, competition is always good for the consumer.
I never brought a PS4 Pro just had the base until i got a ps5 so correct me if I'm off base but was that a big of a jump for even that to be worth it when it came out? All i remember people saying the loading times were better.
Its call greed, when the PS5 was released and was out of stock, consumers were willing to pay inflated prices to get one... they watched, and yes because the competition is limited, they are pushing it to see how far they can go.
As a business decision it makes sense it’s a high end console for enthusiasts not for everyday players, it’s for people with $3000 TVs that want the highest fidelity and stable frame rates and believe me those people have no issue paying for it lol everyone else can stick to the $450 base model
Just saying getting a pc is better long term if you planning to get the ps5 pro what made consoles enticing was the cheep offer if it increases what’s the point on console
I preordered the series x special edition which I thought was pretty expensive, but made sense considering you would pay more for a base series x and expansion card. I have been vindicated by the PS5 pro's $700 price tag. It's a good time to be an Xbox gamer, but I feel offended by the price tag on the PS5 pro nonetheless. (Also I get a disc drive for that $600 special edition price so haha)
It’s like you haven’t been listening to the video. Honestly if you’re dumb enough to buy PS5 Pro after this video then you really do have the IQ of a 4 year old!!
For me $500 is the most I would spend for a console, any more then that and I’ll buy a PC like I did before for mine so yeah no, for $700 you can get a OC with more power then that of a PS5 pro and if u wanna stretch it and get $1000 for a PC then u have a modern PC that will last u well into the next generation of consoles so idk what they r thinking in these prices
At 700+tax = almost 800+ disc and stand that is 1K , i say they now have a good competition with PC :)) This price point is a good thing to push even more people to buy a PC.
I completely understand all the hate Sony is getting here, but i want to see things in the right perspective. Quick question for all the experts here. 1. What is the cost for getting 1 TB extra storage for the PS5? 2. What is the difference in cost for upgrading a graphics card which currently offers gaming at "30 fps 1440p with RT" to a card which offers same gaming at "60 FPS 1440P with RT"? Thanks in advance.
Sony really thinks we're gonna spend $700 for a small upgrade to the PS5??? I think that the PS5 Pro only exists to remind everyone that a normal PS5 costs less and that you should buy the normal one instead.
At this point it would just be smarter to save up for a PC. $1000 can get you a pretty decent gaming rig that can play a lot more games than the PS5 and has the potential for mods and other stuff like that.
4k/60fps with raytracing and a 2tb SSD… I’ll go with PS5 Pro especially since most games or more optimized on console vs pc. There’s no pc that can’t get you that @ $700 price tag the only thing they could do is remove 1tb and make it $600
Also even thinking about the slim it’s more than buying a regular ps5 with the drive if you decide to buy it after People need to just not but the pro to show PlayStation they tripping
Greed really hit Sony like a truck. I'm trying to get an Xbox Series S and that cost like $350 because I want to play Sparking Zero when it comes out. (My brother has a PC, but he's in college right now and he uses it for his work and I don't want to bother him.) The PS5 Pro should NOT be that expensive.
After recording this video, I double checked the price of the PS4 Pro on launch, AND IT WAS THE SAME PRICE AS THE OG PS4! This is crazy bruh...
I have a ps5 in now that I am looking at this video I'm just gonna keep my ps5 in not upgrade because that's crazy
The worst part outside of needing to spend $810 to get the full PS5 Pro experience is that the disc drive needs to be connected to the internet to work. So, when the PS5 eventually goes offline when they stop supporting the PS5 and you have this model, you can not play physical games on it. WTF?

When accounting for inflation, this cost around $60 more than the original PS5, minus a disk drive, but adding 1TB of storage.

Ndukauba are you gonna react to the new mg delta footage
Im jumping for this. But then again i cover my own expenses
the price is reasonable. people can complain all day, but if consumers buy at $700, it is what it is.
The worst thing is that I bet there’ll be an artificial scarcity of these things, just like the initial PS5 release
ndukauba spitting facts 🔥
Only thing I care about is the stand being extra that's crazy but I feel like they want people to lay it flat so the cooling works better. Your not spending that money on just the power. It comes with 2tb as well. And no disk drive, so what. Disk need to be less and less. Digital is the way to go.
With 700$, I could've afford High Pc Gaming setup instead
If you own a ps5 right now, buying the pro is worth it I believe because you can trade it similar to apple trade in, £\$700 is crazy if you don’t own a ps5 to trade in
the funny thing is in the uk it costs £700 which is equivalent to $915. shit is crazy bruh
Im not trying to necessarily start the fanboy wars, but this can Prime Nintendo and Microsoft up unbelievably so.
Switch 2 realistically launches $399 but could he as high as $499 and people will praise it as the greatest thing of all time especially after seeing this unbelievable mistep from Sony.
Microsoft could do a holiday price cut on the series x or do a game pass bundle thing and clean house or game pass on PC marketing push
I hope so badly switch 2 is getting its first little reveal this month so it can start up competition, competition is always good for the consumer.
I never brought a PS4 Pro just had the base until i got a ps5 so correct me if I'm off base but was that a big of a jump for even that to be worth it when it came out? All i remember people saying the loading times were better.
For no reason it cost $700 dollars for The first place, sadly
Then don’t buy the pro what would be the point of getting it other then slight changes to visuals?
True
Its call greed, when the PS5 was released and was out of stock, consumers were willing to pay inflated prices to get one... they watched, and yes because the competition is limited, they are pushing it to see how far they can go.
As a business decision it makes sense it’s a high end console for enthusiasts not for everyday players, it’s for people with $3000 TVs that want the highest fidelity and stable frame rates and believe me those people have no issue paying for it lol everyone else can stick to the $450 base model
$600 would’ve been better
With disk drive and stand ye it would have been
I'm perfectly content with my original PS5. Hearing that the Pro is $700 solidified my decision to keep my original console.
I live in Canada. Let that sink in. 😆
Just saying getting a pc is better long term if you planning to get the ps5 pro what made consoles enticing was the cheep offer if it increases what’s the point on console
I preordered the series x special edition which I thought was pretty expensive, but made sense considering you would pay more for a base series x and expansion card. I have been vindicated by the PS5 pro's $700 price tag. It's a good time to be an Xbox gamer, but I feel offended by the price tag on the PS5 pro nonetheless. (Also I get a disc drive for that $600 special edition price so haha)
Question: I've been considering getting a PS5 but I haven't bought one yet
so should I save up and get a PS5 Pro? or just get a good old Physical PS5?
It’s like you haven’t been listening to the video. Honestly if you’re dumb enough to buy PS5 Pro after this video then you really do have the IQ of a 4 year old!!
For me $500 is the most I would spend for a console, any more then that and I’ll buy a PC like I did before for mine so yeah no, for $700 you can get a OC with more power then that of a PS5 pro and if u wanna stretch it and get $1000 for a PC then u have a modern PC that will last u well into the next generation of consoles so idk what they r thinking in these prices
At 700+tax = almost 800+ disc and stand that is 1K , i say they now have a good competition with PC :)) This price point is a good thing to push even more people to buy a PC.
With out a disk drive don’t forget that
I know damn well that recent DBL anniversary cost me more than $700 lol..
Realistic price would have been 599.
Eventually, I think they will have a disk 📀 drive! Jus gotta have sum patience gents!
I completely understand all the hate Sony is getting here, but i want to see things in the right perspective.
Quick question for all the experts here.
1. What is the cost for getting 1 TB extra storage for the PS5?
2. What is the difference in cost for upgrading a graphics card which currently offers gaming at "30 fps 1440p with RT" to a card which offers same gaming at "60 FPS 1440P with RT"?
Thanks in advance.
Without tax...and without shipping mah boi!
Sony really thinks we're gonna spend $700 for a small upgrade to the PS5??? I think that the PS5 Pro only exists to remind everyone that a normal PS5 costs less and that you should buy the normal one instead.
does it have a 32 tb?
At this point it would just be smarter to save up for a PC. $1000 can get you a pretty decent gaming rig that can play a lot more games than the PS5 and has the potential for mods and other stuff like that.
what kinda prize, bro is that the official selling price bro
4k/60fps with raytracing and a 2tb SSD… I’ll go with PS5 Pro especially since most games or more optimized on console vs pc. There’s no pc that can’t get you that @ $700 price tag
the only thing they could do is remove 1tb and make it $600
Also even thinking about the slim it’s more than buying a regular ps5 with the drive if you decide to buy it after
People need to just not but the pro to show PlayStation they tripping
I was gonna say "The don't but it if you can't afford it" but it's DIGITAL WITH NO STAND. I'd just buy a PS5 OG
Greed really hit Sony like a truck. I'm trying to get an Xbox Series S and that cost like $350 because I want to play Sparking Zero when it comes out. (My brother has a PC, but he's in college right now and he uses it for his work and I don't want to bother him.) The PS5 Pro should NOT be that expensive.
At least dragon ball sparking zero will look so good on PS5 pro
Sony be taking so many Ls lately holy!
