@evan23 According to the Digital Foundry video I watched last night, you can just have games from the PS5 on it and they will pop up on the other console when you install it. I can confirm later today.
I'm setting mine up rn. And by setting up I mean downloading games that weren't on the additional SSD (which I will plug in afterwards) because the data transfer over network refused to work 🤷 Not the best first impression but likely an issue not specific to the Pro.
My order status magically got changed the minute I asked support about it This is the 2nd time this happened in this specific store, too What a coincidence!
@DonJorginho Happy to see this - while the game doesn't look or run bad for me (playing quality mode at 40fps on a 120hz TV), the use of PSSR instead of FSR is the main point for me, as the latter produces a lot of visible artifacting when things move. Unfortunately, I'll be putting Outlaws on hold until I can buy a disc drive for the Pro :/
@OldGamer999 the US restock is what gives me hope that one will happen in EU soon. Still, no Direct here means I'll have to hunt for one at retailers, who have also been raising the price.
This was my first experience with MH and while pretty fun, I'm not yet sure if it's something that would pull me in for many hours. We'll see in March.
You seem to be comparing PS5 Pro's dimensions with the old PS5 (not slim, which is smaller) - but at the same time you say a drive is sold separately for the digital. Also, isn't the current price €549 in EU?
@zupertramp idk about North America but in Europe you can't get them anywhere (even PS Direct, which is not available in my country anyway) other than resellers listing them at €200 or more - and it's been that way since September (shortly after the Pro announcement)
You know what else should improve with the PS5 Pro? The availability of the disc drives. Looks like I'll be putting some games on hold until I can find one later (I'll probably buy Alan Wake 2 digitally instead).
@KilloWertz nope, never had that. I never use rest mode either. It just went to the left-most game on the list and I just had to press X to start it. Obviously pressing 2 buttons instead of 1 isn't a huge deal
@zupertramp I use the activity cards sometimes, although it's rarely the ones that let you access specific parts of the game directly - a common exception being the Tournaments feature in competitive games. It's most often the cards connected to trophies, I'd say.
@Slayer25c I did customize mine to make it appear more useful... but ultimately 99% of the time it will still just be there so I have to press "->" one more time.
The welcome screen popped up for me yesterday and I'm not sure I like it... seems like all it currently does for me is make me press one more button to get to my last played game
I, for one, think this looks really good and can't wait to see... similar results in other games, hopefully. Now that I think of it, I started a TLOU2 Remastered playthrough and only got like 70% through it, so I might as well play the rest on the Pro.
I might try Dead Space and see if I can get further than I did with the PS3 version without a heart attack 🤣 I heard good things about Doki Doki too (btw I think a lot of people don't realize it's not a Japanese-made game)
Pre-ordered the regular version but currently can't find a disc drive that isn't listed at least 50% over MSRP (some are way more than that). Luckily there's still time.
Not that I'd be likely to buy one (I don't really need to pay extra for the Edge controller) but looks like the Pro bundle was never meant to be available here in Poland. They did have the limited slim console, controllers and the portal (mostly sold out now)
I don't think this needed to be made. I do think $10 is fair for this kinda upgrade. I might get it but not sure yet, don't really have the time to replay big games I already played.
Not bad at all, although I'd say it wouldn't be good enough if it wasn't for that Ghost 2 announcement! Still, several games were interesting to me so I'm quite happy with it
30+ minutes and 20 games is quite a lot. They have to show something really cool, surely. One announcement I'm sure will be there but am not necessarily looking forward to is the Horizon remaster.
I don't mind the next entries launching on multiple platforms but I'm not sure it would change that much. FF16 doesn't seem to be doing huge numbers on PC now...

Re: Poll: Did You Buy a PS5 Pro?
@DennisReynolds It would be nice if it worked - but it didn't for me.
@evan23 I can confirm moving the SSD worked just fine

Re: Out Today: PS5 Pro, the Most Powerful Console Ever
My pickup is not confirmed yet and even though I'm at the office for another 2.5h anyway, I'm kinda going crazy here ;]

Re: PS5 Pro Actually Gives You Almost All Its 2TB of Storage to use
@Rich33 2048 is actually a very good round number (= 2^11) in computing so it's probably that
Re: Round Up: PS5 Pro Reviews Love New Tech and Its Glimpse of PS6 Potential
Picking mine up tomorrow after work
Still no disc drives available though...

Re: Official List of PS5 Pro Launch Games Revealed by Sony
Disappointed with Helldivers not being on the list but I know they did say it will be so I'm assuming this just means "not day 1"

Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for November 2024?
OK month, I guess - as I already beat Ghostwire (it's not bad) and Hotwheels looks fun but I don't expect to play it a whole lot.
Re: PS5 Pro Could Seriously Improve the Quality of Your PS4 Games
You know what else should improve with the PS5 Pro? The availability of the disc drives.
Looks like I'll be putting some games on hold until I can find one later (I'll probably buy Alan Wake 2 digitally instead).
Re: PS5 Slim 30th Anniversary Console Restock Expected Today in the US
How about disc drives in Europe, Sony...
I'm not paying €240 for one.

In case you missed it, Leona is originally a King of Fighters character (she's in a team with Ralf and Clark)
Re: PS5 Pro Adds Ray Tracing to Alan Wake 2 in Big Tech Improvement
@Futureshark There's no way the C4 only has 2.0 if my C1 has 2.1
You must be mistaken.
Re: Expedition 33 Dev Confirms $50 Price Is Correct, '30+ Hours of Main Game'
This game looks insanely good for a "budget" game
Re: Remedy Reveals Co-Op Control Game FBC: Firebreak, on PS Plus Extra from Day One
Do we know if this has crossplay? Most people I'd be likely to play with are on PC.
Re: Opinion: The Price of Playing PS5 Games Day One Is Getting Higher and Higher
I might consider paying extra for more content or some extra goodies (limited editions and such) but definitely not just to play early
That said, let them offer it. Who cares.
Re: PS5's New Welcome Page Rolling Out to UK Accounts
Not that I really care but it's not rolled out in Poland yet
Re: Huge List of 18 Major Games to Leave PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Month
@themightyant @PapaGlitch thanks, that's interesting
I think I'll play Superluminal
I was also thinking about checking out Kingdom Hearts but I'm not sure I feel like playing it rn (with a deadline too)
Re: Huge List of 18 Major Games to Leave PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Month
Didn't they just add RDR2 again?
Re: PS5 Pro, 30th Anniversary Consoles Now Available at More Retailers
I'm still unable to buy the disc drive ☹️
Re: PS5's New Welcome Hub Reportedly Now Popping Up in Europe
I didn't see it last night in Poland, maybe it'll pop up today since other places in EU seem to be getting it.
Re: PS5 Pro Boost Is Pretty Clear Cut in The Last of Us 2 Remastered Comparison Video
I, for one, think this looks really good and can't wait to see... similar results in other games, hopefully.
Now that I think of it, I started a TLOU2 Remastered playthrough and only got like 70% through it, so I might as well play the rest on the Pro.

@dschons How was it?
Re: October 2024's PS Plus Essential PS5, PS4 Games Are Available to Download Now
I might try Dead Space and see if I can get further than I did with the PS3 version without a heart attack 🤣
I heard good things about Doki Doki too (btw I think a lot of people don't realize it's not a Japanese-made game)
Re: Bickering Begins Over PS5 Pro's Inability to Sell Out
@Neither_scene Scalpers, at least here, have found a way for now - the disc drives :/
Re: Poll: Did You Pre-Order a PS5 Pro?
@TheElectroFunky I'm in the EU (Poland, specifically) so I'm sure they'll pop up eventually
Re: Poll: Did You Pre-Order a PS5 Pro?
Pre-ordered the regular version but currently can't find a disc drive that isn't listed at least 50% over MSRP (some are way more than that).
Luckily there's still time.

@PloverNutter I'll be very surprised if Wilds doesn't have a Pro mode

Re: Your Horizon Zero Dawn PS4 Progress Will Transition to PS5 Remaster
@thefourfoldroot1 Pretty sure it was just the PS4 version and remaster is PS5 only
Re: Your Horizon Zero Dawn PS4 Progress Will Transition to PS5 Remaster
@thefourfoldroot1 Do games share trophy lists between the PS4 and PS5 version now? Because they used to be separate in every case I can think of.
Re: Your Horizon Zero Dawn PS4 Progress Will Transition to PS5 Remaster
I don't think this needed to be made. I do think $10 is fair for this kinda upgrade.
I might get it but not sure yet, don't really have the time to replay big games I already played.
Re: Poll: What Did You Think of Sony's State of Play for September 2024?
Not bad at all, although I'd say it wouldn't be good enough if it wasn't for that Ghost 2 announcement!
Still, several games were interesting to me so I'm quite happy with it
Re: State of Play Coming Today, 20+ PS5, PSVR2 Games Included
@thefourfoldroot1 RE4 PSVR2 support released in December last year
Re: State of Play Confirmed for Tomorrow, 20+ PS5, PSVR2 Games Included

Re: Horizon Zero Dawn's PS5, PC Remaster Is Very Much the Real Deal
@get2sammyb Might be a $10 upgrade like TLOU2, we've been here before
Re: Poll: Would You Buy PS5 Pro If It Was Cheaper?
Didn't vote because I'll buy one anyway but I'm not exactly happy with the price
