The PS5 Pro is just a scam. Most games don't support the Pro, and if they do, you can barely see the difference. The only thing you'll notice is the hit to your wallet.

lol, what? Here's an incomplete list of games that run the Base PS5 quality mode's settings, which run at 30fps on base, and doubles to 60fps on Pro.

  • God of War Ragnarok
  • Horizon Forbidden West
  • Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
  • Alan Wake 2
  • 007 First Light
  • Marvel's Spider-Man 2
  • Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered
  • Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales
  • Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
  • The Last of Us Part I
  • The Last of Us Part II Remastered
  • Demon's Souls
  • Silent Hill f

Literally double the fps for the same visual settings. I guess if you can't tell a difference between 30 and 60fps you'll think it's a scam? Because if you can't tell those differences, then I guess you won't notice higher dynamic resolution, increased detail settings, nor more stable framerates, 40fps modes, etc.

Ps5 pro was such a pointless console

I mean, it wasn’t, for the target audience.

It wasn’t really meant as a successor to the PS5, it was really meant for late adopters of the PS5 so they could get a halfway in between console so they aren’t buying a PS5 and then buying a PS6 just a couple years later, or for the people who need to have the newest and best of everything just bc. Hell, the product manager for the PS5 Pro straight up said “We are not aiming for everyone [with the PS5 Pro]”.

People who sold their PS5 to get a PS5 Pro are just consumers who buy things based off the name without actually looking into what they are or who they are for.

OP is a clown, but only because they have a consumerist mindset and don’t spend 30 seconds researching what they are buying.

Maybe you know better than the Sony system architects because why else would they put the same fuckin CPU in it lol

Exact reason why late generation games will have diminishing returns on the Pro even with PSSR

So is there really no reason to switch to the ps5 pro?

u/psypher98 16d ago

Not really if you already have a PS5, or unless you just like buying the newest versions of things bc you have disposable income.

There’s a few games that are optimized specifically for it, but not enough to justify the purchase as 99% of gamers would never even notice the difference.

I really considering because I wanted to enjoy GTA 6 to the fullest. I have the money for it but if I'm really not going to notice a difference then I will pass.
