@Fatewalker Thanks for the heads up.It was an nice read,also showing that the base consoles never reached their potential, yet they are selling us pro versions again.
It's kinda sad that consoles follow the PC way of doing things..More horsepower with less polished games taking advantage of it..It seems that everything happens to pass the cost of developing to the consumers. Sooner or later they will say that we need an rtx4090 to run tetris.
Ps5 is more than capable to do 40fps with vrr which is a sweet spot..the tech is there but doing the actual work seems out of question for 3rd party developers.
Sure thing is we don't need a ps5 pro..they barely touched the original hardware..Maybe, just maybe if you want to recoup costs you need to work the damn thing before you develop something new.
Europe is in shambles ..The cost of life is unbearable..Gaming is becoming less and less of a priority for most people. Very few games will stick and turn healthy profits.
@ChrisDeku Yeah so much for pc superiority and free online play..no thank you i've been the pc way and it was full of cheaters and hackers..PSN any day.
@TheIdleCritic I think the game tries really hard to get noticed and just be weird with no obvious reason. I would say that it hit's bollywood movie levels.
@Loamy I have an LG BX oled..it probably worth it's money especially in dolby vision movie modes and gaming is ultra responsive with accurate colors..however motion handling isn't the best..(maybe Sony is better?). 40 fps with VRR is a great sweet spot for me with the 120hz panel.
@Pikachuuuu Last gen they had fortnite and rocket league to print money..This gen they have to find something to stick..I wouldn't worry about ps5..Tons of great games to play..3rd and 1st party.
Dropping the ps4 support will do miracles for ps5 down the line.. I don't see the need for a pro model as we are in an era of diminishing returns for visual fidelity vs cost of doing that. FSR 3.0 is coming by the way...

Re: Poll: How Much Do You Care About 60fps on PS5?
@dschons some times motion blur can also help but not much.
Re: Poll: How Much Do You Care About 60fps on PS5?
As an oled tv owner 30fps games are very hard to enjoy..40 fps is a sweet spot though if i can't get 60.

Re: 3 New PS Plus Essential Games Up for Download Now on PS5, PS4
@Fatewalker Do they have an update roadmap? I'm kinda interested..

Re: Hands On: Dragon's Dogma 2 Update Improves Frame Rate on PS5 at the Cost of Ray Tracing
@OldGamer999 I think it can't be done with ps5 due to limitations of the hdmi bandwidth..Don't know for sure...
Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 DLC? Tell Capcom You Want Another Dark Arisen in New Survey
@Frmknst You clearly have no clue. Oled tvs are unbearable with low frame rates.I refuse to play anything at 30fps with my lg oled.
Re: Japan Sales Charts: Dragon's Dogma 2, Rise of the Ronin Can't Beat Princess Peach
It seems that ps5 will surpass ps4 total hardware sales sooner or later. No small feat.
Re: Talking Point: How Do You Feel About the PS5 Pro?
People will buy anything these days expect for psvr2
Re: Xbox Planning to Release the 'Majority' of Its Exclusives on PS5
Gamepass managed to cannibalise the whole gaming division.
Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 (PS5) - The Apex of RPG Adventuring
Ps5 is more than capable to do 40fps with vrr which is a sweet spot..the tech is there but doing the actual work seems out of question for 3rd party developers.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's PS5 Graphics Enhanced, Here Are the Patch Notes
Do the patches affect the demo as well? I'm willing to try it.
Re: PS5 Pro's Proprietary DLSS-Esque Upscaler Sounds Superb
@Ainu20 DLSS is not the solution for everything..the image quality takes a serious hit..
Re: PS5 Pro's Proprietary DLSS-Esque Upscaler Sounds Superb
Correct me if i'm wrong but upsampling tech is already supported by the base ps5..
Re: Exclusivity Is the Achilles' Heel of Huge Blockbusters, Says Former PlayStation Exec
So what's the point in developing new and exciting hardware? Where is competition? All they want is to eliminate the risk. Less work for more money.
Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 Uncapped Frame Rate Put to the Test on PS5, Preview Build Averages 31fps
@Jay767 Amen. It's their way to make lazy games and cut costs passing the cost of development to players who always need to buy new hardware.
Re: Reaction: The Problem with PlayStation Right Now
@ZhuckelDror 4k60 with upsampling tech like fsr2.0 whould be really easy, but i guess they need to sell us new hardware again no matter what.
Re: Reaction: The Problem with PlayStation Right Now
Sure thing is we don't need a ps5 pro..they barely touched the original hardware..Maybe, just maybe if you want to recoup costs you need to work the damn thing before you develop something new.

Re: Poll: What Do You Think of PSVR2, One Year Later?
It should be cheaper around 400euros..Right now it's a tough sell.They could also try new bundles with aggressive pricing.
Re: Helldivers 2 Off to a Strong Start on PS5, PC, Currently Third Best-Selling Game on Steam
@ChrisDeku Yeah so much for pc superiority and free online play..no thank you i've been the pc way and it was full of cheaters and hackers..PSN any day.
Re: Preview: Helldivers 2 Utterly Revels in Its Chaotic Bug Battles
Do i need plus for online play?
Re: Gallery: Death Stranding 2: On the Beach's PS5 Movie Posters Reveal Elle Fanning, More
@TheIdleCritic I think the game tries really hard to get noticed and just be weird with no obvious reason. I would say that it hit's bollywood movie levels.
Re: Gallery: Death Stranding 2: On the Beach's PS5 Movie Posters Reveal Elle Fanning, More
Ultimate cringe-fest..not my cup of tea for sure..the original was the fastest game i dropped ever.
Re: Rumour: Dragon's Dogma 2 Runs at 30fps on PS5
@Loamy I have an LG BX oled..it probably worth it's money especially in dolby vision movie modes and gaming is ultra responsive with accurate colors..however motion handling isn't the best..(maybe Sony is better?). 40 fps with VRR is a great sweet spot for me with the 120hz panel.
Re: Rumour: Dragon's Dogma 2 Runs at 30fps on PS5
30 frames is unbearable with oled tv's.
Re: PS5 Had Sony's Best Year in Japan for Almost 20 Years
Subscriptions also don't help with software sales..having extra for a year and I didn't purchase a single game.
Re: Future Looking Bright for Fallout 76 and Its Legions of Players

Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Takes Over the World on PS5 Launch Day
@get2sammyb That and GT7 ray traced opening scene give me the chills.

Next gen is finally here.
Re: Assassin's Creed Nexus VR Looks Incredible, But It's Not Confirmed for PSVR2 Yet
@gabuloid I don't have the unit, but the lack of support for racing game developers was a major hit..Where is the new WRC vr mode or the F1?
Re: Assassin's Creed Nexus VR Looks Incredible, But It's Not Confirmed for PSVR2 Yet
Boy, ps vr2 is becoming a tough sell. It's time for sony to burn some money towards it or it will flop.
Re: PS Plus Premium Members Get Free Movies with New PS5, PS4 Streaming App
Is there a list with supported countries?
Re: The Last of Us Multiplayer's Microtransactions Man Has Left Naughty Dog
@Jswift56 Yeah, factions 2.0 would be great with just a graphics upgrade. Make it standalone and free with ps+ and you got an instant winner.
Re: Assassin's Creed Mirage (PS5) - A Solid But Slightly Dated Return to the Series' Roots

Re: Preview: EA Sports WRC Combines Codemasters Pedigree with Authentic Rally Racing
Visuals could be a lot better..
Re: Alan Wake 2 Has a Performance Mode on PS5, But It's Been Built as a '30FPS Experience'
40fps is a sweet spot if you have a 120hz tv. I did GOW and HFW in this mode it was great. OLeds are notorious bad with low frame rates.
Re: Massive PS Store Sale Wants You to Play PS5, PS4 for Longer
Diablo 2 for me. Believe it or not i've never played this gem.
Re: Metal Gear Solid Locked at 30fps in PS5, PS4 Master Collection

Re: PS5, PC Pre-Orders for Helldivers 2 Are Available Now

Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 3 Is Gigantic, Out Now on PS5 with Improved Performance
Maybe a Christmas physical release? One can hope.
Re: PSN Is Apparently Causing Baldur's Gate 3 Crashes on PS5
Wake me up when they fix act3..every analysis shows that it's like a stop motion movie hitting around 18-24 fps.
Re: There's Something Weird Going on with Titanfall 2 Right Now
I would choose this over destiny and cod every time.
Re: Apple Insinuates iPhone 15 Pro Will Be a Better Games Console Than PS5, PS4
As always this company is delusional. They might claim that usb-c is their invention as well.
