The lack of a disc drive was a very odd choice for a high end, all-the-bells-and-whistles product.

they want physical media dead so people stop buying resold used games and have no choice but to buy digitally, meaning consumers don't even get to own their games anymore and live at the mercy of ever increasing game prices :alsemanche:

mother, what must i do?

Well… 

Mind you the graphics upgrade is barely noticeable ☠️

And then the price… ☠️

Will you be upgrading? Bc I certainly won’t be ☠️☠️

I've been waiting for PS5 Pro, I never bought the og PS5 because it was not worth it imo. And I certainly never expected anyone to upgrade from PS5 to PS5 Pro, like...did you do that with PS4? :sharon:

The graphics upgrade is not even that bad, especially the PSSR is very handy for more fps, and the whole system is 50% more powerful with better ray tracing. I'm all here for better graphics especially with 60fps :triggered:

So, idk why you say "for some reason" because many have been waiting for this for YEARS now...

But still, the price is just WAY too much for me to even consider buying one soon, 800€ without disc drive or stand... :smh:

Spoiler

Pros: Very nice system/graphics upgrade, would still go with this over PS5 if I had to buy one

Cons: Insanely expensive... :franminervini:

The future is digital, and the data shows that - so it’s not that weird

They sell it as an add on to

this device for an extra $80


It’s smart for them to avoid putting a 7 in that price tag bc this is already too much for so little

It needed more games. It is a nice console but very few games! where is it??

This is it. I was scrolling through the psstore the other day and WOW....they're still relying on red dead redemption and GTA5 to give that storefront a bit of punch. It's concerning atp

Availability is not weakness

All that waiting for this… and the graphical difference is so minor Maybe they should have emphasize the frame rate boost more bc graphics in general seem to be plateauing (at a good place tbf).

I think the future is physics, like we see in Yassstro Bottom - oh the gaming excellence that is

but like… I just don’t know who this is for. The many in question isn’t enough to save Sony from the embarrassing sales they’re about to endure

The enthusiasts got their PS5 already and most seem to not see it worth upgrading, and the regular consumers will gawk at the tag

So… “for some reason” stays bc other then tradition idk what this was needed for

Super expensive in Canada … no disk drive and no stand

 

What in the world was Sony thinking

Never bought the PS5, and I decided that if I was going to buy one, I would wait for a Pro model. But seeing this... yeah... I think I am going to skip this generation. There isn't really anything THAT exciting for me to consider buying one. I only game on my PC now.

Also, I don't know if it's just me, but I don't really care much about amazing next gen graphics. I would rather have a well-optimized game that runs well on all platforms than have all the team's resources spent on hair physics and water reflections lol. Don't get me wrong, I do love when a company releases a game with gorgeous graphics (Ghost of Tsushima, Mortal Kombat, Horizon: Forbidden West etc..), but it feels as though most games nowadays tend to prioritize that instead of what makes games actually fun in the first place lol 

Until then, this is Elvira saying unpleasant dreams.

Also it looks like it entered mass production a few weeks ago

It's happening, but release date still seems to be between January to March 2025
