Tbh, most people would drop more than the price difference on clothes that they will never wear. Just look at the new car market. Hardly anyone buys the cheap model, so for a couple of hundred bucks, I don’t think anyone really cares about this. If they have the disposable income, they will probably just buy the pro because of the perception that they are buying the best.

Not if they already have a PS5, though.

Like all the people who didn’t need an iPhone 16 Pro Max because they already had an iPhone 15 Pro Max? People out there are buying millions dollar properties to stay empty. Sony wouldn’t have even created it unless there was a market for it

Tbh I have a PS5 and I am interested in buying a pro, eventually. Maybe next year black Friday sales will be nice.

People buy new cars when they already have a car to use ¯(ツ)_/¯

I had a PS4 pro. Didn't feel any tangible benefits over the standard model.

It was the only last gen console to run Cyberpunk 2077 with a stable framerate. First party exclusives made good use of it too.

Also it's a fucking console in a universe where PCs exist.
I just saw an article that said: can the pst pro run elde ring at 60 fps? What the fuck, the ps5 can't do that? What is even the point then? Maybe i'm hallucinating, because i have seen maybe one or two ps5 in stores, but doesn't it have some pretentious 8k ready sticker or something on it?
FULL 8K 60Hz READY'*"
neural network upscaled from 480p
neural network upscaled from 10 fps
you don't own a fucking 8K display, stop kidding yourself. If you did it would look the same as a 4K display but take 4 times as much energy to run
DF tested it and no, The PS5 Pro can’t run Elden Ring at 60 FPS. Also ye the whole 8K thing is infuriating not even the RTX 4090 can do 8K reliably
Hold on to your butts, there's a wave of dipshits on their way to say "BuT a CoNsOlE iS sPeCiFiCalLy MaDe To PlAy ThEsE gAmEs!1!1!"
You will need to pay at least twice as much for a PC if you want games to run as nice as they do on PS5
Maybe, but you'd have to have more than a dozen exclusive titles for that to matter much compared to the thousands available for PC.
AMD rx 6800 is $350 said to be equivalent.
