Time for PS5 Ultra Pro Max
They'll paint flames on the side to make it go faster.
Or they gonna introduce GPU attachments instead of the disc drive lmao
But seriously, it's beyond sad how awful this "upgrade" is. First it's an insane price for minimal upgrade, there are no new games to even make use of this, and now even older games can't properly make use of the better hardware. The whole reason to even upgrade diminishes really quickly, and it wasn't even worth it in the first place.
Although it's kinda funny to read about people who bought the Pro and then share negative reviews how so-not-worth the purchase was. Listing all kinds of negatives that they could've known prior to buying one if they put in even minimal effort to research.
The one good thing the PS5 pro brought was the news that scalpers got fucked up because the demand is so damn low
I still see the PS5Pro as a bit dumb, but also not sure what Sony could easily do around this problem.
Weβre at the graphical plateau where any improvements become extremely expensive, and increasingly hard to notice. Sure, we have 4K TVs and weβre not quite able to play all our games at 4K 120fps, but very few people care about that level of detail. Honestly, I donβt even know what Sony may be planning for the PS6 while still keeping it at a reasonable price.
Ray tracing. It makes good looking human skin. But if course it only matters for 3D games that aren't cel shaded.

Release a slim model and some colors?
Gaming's problem is games. I have no idea why Sony keeps throwing more hardware at less games if hardware is the loss leader in the gaming industry anyway.
Go bribe Remedy or FROM or somebody for an exclusive, wash/rinse/repeat the Bloodborne strategy.
