Lots of people feel this way. This thing is going to come in at a price around $650 or $700, sell pretty much exclusively to the people who need the latest high-end PlayStation regardless, and then free up a bit of inventory of second hand vanilla PS5s. It’s a way to justify keeping prices high, because they can’t afford to lower them.

A 9 minute presentation the day after Playstation’s 30th anniversary, I hope people keep their expectations in check.

It is unnecessary.

Honestly, it’s pretty far into the PS5’s lifecycle at this point. I think a PS5 Pro this late into the current generation would be a bad move, because a PS6 is undoubtedly around the corner in just a few years and will effectively obsolesce a PS5 Pro, anyway.

If they released a Pro version last year, that’d make more sense. But unless Sony’s expecting this generation to stretch out longer than normal, this just doesn’t seem like a good idea.

Honestly, if this means that the “quality” modes run at 60fps+ (and 4K but we’ll see) then I may be on board.

The 40fps middle ground right now isn’t that bad, but I’d rather it be better.

We’ll see.

I really don’t see the point, but I’m not against it as long as it doesn’t lower anything we’d be getting on normal ps5.

At least for the ps4 and ps4 Pro, I didn’t feel like the ps4 pro created a problem for regular ps4 games.
