Is the PS5 PRO an utterly useless device at launch? Reviews are out now.

FF7 Rebirth is a great example of the PS5 Pro enhancing things. PSSR will be a game changer for some titles over the next few years though for many games the difference won't be that noticeable. How worth it it is mostly comes down to how much someone wants to play everything at 60fps when that's an option and wants to avoid certain games looking poor when using the performance mode. 

Yeah, getting rid of artiifacting is pretty much the biggest boon of the console, I suppose it comes down to how sensitive you are to it. Oddly enough, It bothers me for about 10 minutes and then I don't notice it anymore at all albeit from what I seen of Wu Kong, I don't think I'd get used to it being that bad. 

I imagine there will be some late gen titles that'll look and run really poorly on the base PS5 so the Pro will start really making a difference probably 2026 onwards. Though it seems the performance mode for Monster Hunter Wilds might look crappy so perhaps that'll start next year.
