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

Sub 1080p base resolution shouldn't happen in 2024...

Alan Wake 2 (847p), Silent Hill 2 (864p), Dragon Age The Veilguard (835p) and Jedi Survivor (864p) all have image instability issues in their Performance modes with PSSR.

Silent Hill 2, a ps2 game, at 864p on PS5 Pro? Wtf. The screenshots don't look all that impressive until you check out the ones with the fog removed. I guess it's not optimized much.

Silent Hill 2 is not a PS2 game, though? That's like saying FF7 Remake is a PS1 game, it isn't.

As for the thread, I don't think the PS5 is utterly useless, it does what Sony said it would do on launch. I just think it's a very underwhelming and expensive upgrade, so I won't ever buy one.
