$700, and the side by sides look barely different, from my perspective. The chat seemed to have the same opinion.

SEVEN HUNDRED US DOLLARS!

Sony costumers need to remind them of the PS3.

Is there an eli5 on how "ai upscaling" is less (or even equally) technologically demanding than just putting in better hardware?

What game would even justify that price tag lol and no disk tray.

What do I do with my PS5 discs if I buy the Pro one day? Are they just unusable? Will I be able to get a digital copy for free since I already paid them for the disc they stopped supporting?

It seems like there's no sane migration path from PS5 with disc drive to the PS5 Pro.

Not really on topic, but AI upscaling is no joke. It's actually very useful and saves alot processing power. Same with the extra fps, making a 30fps into a 60fps with ease.

I don’t see the point in this. I’m already planning to get a PC (and a Radeon 7900 XTX will always outperform a PS5), so it’s just more money for no benefit.

I don't know if It turns out that I was stupid for not buying the original PS5 or holding out for a Pro one even from back then.

I was looking forward to this a lot because I could get the better version from day 1 and have a lot of games to play from taking and borrowing my brother's disc games.

I guess I'll get the XBSX for GTA VI when it comes.

gta 6 gets delayed... sony releases this early to sell more ps6's ?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I can't see how this is worth it for anyone. Are there even games that are pushing the current PS5?

No disc drive either.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

No disc drive either.

I'm out

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

There are games that perform poorly, but to my understanding that's not the hardware's fault

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

At this price I’m so glad I decided to go for a slim instead of holding out for the pro. Absolutely no way.
