We don't know who the majority of PS5 Pro owners will be. The target group is PlayStation enthusiasts. So many of them will have a bigger TV than yours or mine... the difference won't be "utterly useless" for them. Some of them will even play on a big projector screen.... we even have a few of them in this forum.
PlayStation enthusiasts which are interested in a PS5 Pro? I very much doubt that! |
Yes i get it, big spenders and all but not all enthusiasts who are drawn to the pro are big spenders, I see a lotta people only upgrading cause they could sell their PS5. Tbh though even two feet from my 50 inch and it's not exactly a wow moment between fidelity and performance and Im contrasting and comparing like 8 games atm, yeah you can tell the difference but you have to but your attention on the changes. Nothing grabs you when you're actually playing the game. The biggest factor is how the 60fps, now that really effects things and is very noticeable. I just don't get it, the PRO should be doing 4k 60 AND ALSO adding graphical fidelity, not every patch has to be a remaster but loom what The Witcher 3 done with the next gen Patch for free, Now that is a very noticeable improvement that gets you even when you're immersed in the game.
The ps4 "boost" is laughably small. Now, if they could unlock frame rates on ps4 and get all those 30 fps games to something resemling 60, that'd be impressive but since many of those games, the ones that matter bar Bloodborne have ps5 patches it's still not IT. Idk man, besides the price, I got over that one, I was just expecting more. PS4 PRO was very apparent right out of the box, you just got so much more... plus a disc drive for posterity. Aside from the noise the damn thing made it was an actual upgrade that double if jot tripled or quadrupled the quality of the image in some games, Shadow of the Collosus for example, now that was a game that showed you things were next level and if I remember correctly I think I paid the same price for my PS4 as I did with my OG PS4 which was wild, I'm very surprised it didn't become the default and sell way more than 20 million, even then people were okay with buying the OG ps4 for what 50 or 100 cheaper, the price of a game when they could quadruple image quality or double FPS for just that bit more.
The PS5 PRO just isn't it unless you have your own private cinema. Perhaps future games will show us a different story but right now, nope. Look how returnal did one option, 60 fps and then worried about graphics, now if that were the norm and PS5 PRO was the machine that came out and introduced quality and performance modes and modes in between then they have something to sell, this thing won't sell a smidgen of what the PS4 PRO sold, probably even less than PSVR 2.
