Isn't this the foundation for your next Xbox?
This is exactly what some of us have been talking about...a way to bridge existing console users into a Xbox branded PC
They're not copying MS strategy in slow motion - these are completely different scenarios imo.
PS has always pushed exclusives but likely got distracted by Live Service which interrupted their pipeline and gave us this relatively slow period. (Remember Spiderman 2 just came out last year BTW)
MS wanted to dominate with exclusives first by making them (failed) then by buying them (failed) until they couldn't justify the cost anymore. So they're stepping away from ...
I don't recall a Chinese-based game developer ever penetrating the market like this. Good on 'em.
So you won't be playing games for a handful of years?
If I can get $300 for my OG PS5, even a $600 PS5 Pro only sets me back by about $300-$350.
That seems pretty reasonable for an upgrade that could significantly improve FPS in games...
i'm the same way. i want to say no as i have a PC with a 3080 already, but there will be that one game that i want to look its best
Nothing like 5 more bumps to the head to teach a lesson
Even if it wouldn't have been the next Call of Duty, it would have satisfied the PlayStation faithfuls and hardcore LoU fans. That would be a better outcome than this
Here's to hoping their live service strategy does with it
I think you're right, it's gotta be a series of things. I can't tell how much of it is "planned" as part of their cost cutting layoffs and console strategy vs. plain old incompetence. Either way it's not trending in the right direction.
I don't think they'll ditch physical until there's no competition left that offers physical that customers can flock to. It'll be post Xbox imo
Definitely. It would be silly to not use the same one built for the slim already
Maybe the studios have been quietly working on Pro versions of their already released games.
Would much rather they were working on their next games though
" I'm not buying this
No way this thing even exists
But if it does exist
I'm going to buy this"
You're not honestly predicting the PS5 pro won't play GTA VI better then the PS5 or the XSX, are you?
So your premise is that the PS5 Pro doesn't have special hardware to do the DLSS-like magic that the Nvidia cards do? And Nvidia is secretly keeping DLSS from working on non-RTX cards as well?
It takes custom hardware to do that real time. This isn't some simple upscaling algorithm
Amen. Hope this sends a message. Back to basics please
When the next GTA comes out this is gonna be the best hardware to play it on. PS may just clean up with this
Without exclusives it'll be even more painfully obvious that Xbox's main competitor can play a lot more games than Xbox . With more bells and whistles, and soon at higher frame rates and resolution if the rumors are true. Xbox's only positive product differentiator is GamePass which has ballooned to $240/year. A Walmart proposition with Macy's pricing.
I don't know about "faith", but I'm guessing the downward spiral will accelerate at this point. I g...
Seeing how incredible DLSS is with Nvidia, if it approaches that, it'll be worth it. AMD has been woefully behind in this area. DLSS is so good it practically negates the need for full 4K rendering.
