It's ironic to claim that "PS5 is not even being pushed" while knowing (and even complaining) that some games' performance modes look too blurry/low-res and some games do not always hit their target framerates. PS5 Pro will (at the very least) allow devs to increase the base resolution and possibly the quality of upscaling in performance modes (with PSSR), as well as reduce (or even eliminate) framerate drops (when capped) or increase framerates (when uncapped) for GPU-bottlenecked games (which is most modern 3D games), not to mention potentially adding/improving raytracing features without impacting performance. Also, nobody will be forcing any customer to buy anything. So, if you're satisfied with your PS5, then ignore and don't buy the PS5 Pro.
The poll is missing an option for 40 fps mode, which (for 120Hz TVs) is a great compromise for current gen consoles, and therefore it should ideally be supported in all games. It has a frame time of 25 ms, which is exactly halfway between the frame time for 30 and 60 fps (33.33 ms and 16.67 ms, respectively), and feels mostly stutter-free (unlike 30 fps on OLED TVs), while also running at relatively high resolutions.
@Rafie I had the same "issue". If you don't see a button like "Claim" or "Add to Library" for Witch Queen, you probably already have it in your library. Make sure the main game is installed and updated. If you're on PS5, select "Manage Game Content" in the game icon (Options button) menu on PS5 home screen. If Witch Queen is listed there as Usable, you should already have it in your library, and it should be available in-game, I think.
It's absurd and such a missed opportunity that this headset doesn't support watching 3D videos at all, especially considering Sony's movie business. 🤦🏻
These polls seem to have a problem. What answer are people supposed to choose if they plan on playing the game, but not at launch, because they're too busy with other games?
Probably only The Last of Us Part II Remastered (never played the PS4 version) and Tekken 8, but when they are heavily discounted, since I already have a large backlog.

Sackboy: A Big Adventure, which has fun gameplay, creative level designs, great visuals and music, and a not-so-easy platinum trophy.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Skull and Bones?
No, thanks. I'll wait for the rumored remake of Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag if I feel like playing a pirate-themed game.
Re: Poll: What Do You Think of the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Demo?
I'll wait for a PS5 Pro patch to play this next year, given the apparent soft/blurry graphics on PS5. By then it will likely have been discounted too.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 512
Ghost of Tsushima - Iki Island. It's an excellent expansion to the awesome base game.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered?
With that unlocked frame rate fidelity mode (like Hogwarts Legacy), this will be perfect for the PS5 Pro.
Re: Poll: Which PS5 Games are You Buying in Early 2024's Ridiculous Release Schedule?
Probably only The Last of Us Part II Remastered (never played the PS4 version) and Tekken 8, but when they are heavily discounted, since I already have a large backlog.
Re: Best 4K TVs for PS5 in 2024
Maybe update this guide at least once a year? LG C3 is the latest released model, not C2 anymore.
Re: LEGO Fortnite Is Available to Play Right Now, Watch the Gameplay Launch Trailer
So, is either (or both) of these new modes single-player by any chance? And if so, do they require a PS+ subscription to play?
