Tbh I do am interested in the console. The price is bit more than what I expected at $649 so I am waiting for reviews before jumping in. I have a sizable PS4/PS5 physical discs so I may have to purchase the addon drive to play them.

People are getting that disc drive lol

Again, the majority of games being bought are digital download. The breakdown of physical vs digital consoles is irrelevant when people overwhelmingly choose digital download even when they have a disc drive.

Makes no sense, most consoles sold are the disk version, yet you say most games are sold digitally, make that make sense.

People buy games digitally. Buying physical games is not the standard anymore.

(fwiw, Japan is quite unique in the sense that they actually do prefer physical games but, that isn't the case for most markets.)

physical split is a bit higher in eu as well thanks to retail being cheaper than digital, baseline is 70€ retail vs 80€ psn

The craziest part of this whole discourse re: the disc drive is that digital download is the standard method of consuming games. Like how can folks say they want a disc drive and yet only 30% of new games sold on PS4 and PS5 are physical copies.

Taking away features is never great but lets be real, you don't use it. It's seriously unusual seeing people pile onto that criticism.

How many PS5 owners own physical copies of games for both PS4 and PS5... I'd argue atleast over 90% of Playstation owners at least have 1 physical game. without the disk drive your physical library is useless, those gamers that own a physical copy of a game they already own are going to want that disc drive.. and at $700 already without the disk drive this jank is $800.

What a rip off, just invest in a PC

You're probably correct; 90% most likely do own at least one physical copy. But, the fact that the majority of folks are buying digital *today* tells me that it is an increasingly less important problem to solve.

Ex. The PS6 will more than likely support your digital library from the PS4 + PS5 era. That's potentially like 15 years of content at your disposal. That's more than the entire PS1 + PS2 generation. The PS6 will be more backwards compatible than the OG PS3. lol

True BUT the PC market, which is *huge* is Europe, is entirely digital.

I don't think anyone is dismissing the advantages of physical media. It's simply a fact that most people choose digital.

Instead of wasting our energy on physical media, how about we advocate for making digital *better*?

- Make backwards and future compatibility the *standard*

- Create a system for reselling digital games

etc.

Remember when Sony botched the Vita with a few questionable design choices? I get the same vibes from this.

Series x 500 plus 1tb ssd 200 equals 700 with gears of War with raytracing at launch. Even launched with 1080p dashboard.

Ps5 pro gpu cost more than 100 over ps5 gpu. On top of 2 tb ssd. With better hardware.

650 would been best with out disc drive. Love how Xbox players love there gamepass then complain no disc drive. Love how 2000 pc doesn't come with disc drives.

Wow talk about hypocritical of you guys.

Inflation on top of it. 3080 gpu alone is 1000 bucks. I swear gamers bitch about everything. Computer with capabilities as a ps5 pro is 2000 bucks with out monitor.

Nobodies buying that, a 4070TI Super would cost less and be far more capable. You fanboys are desperate to justify being shafted by Sony.

GBA purple stock SKU launch in 2001 with mario kart which is the best game ever

Now we have smartphones that have over hundred times the power my PC had in the late 90s.

I'm not even sure what your comparison is supposed to be about, we are getting better and cheaper hardware available all the time, that is just a thing which happens.

@loudheadphones: So 600k is considered a succes, the bar is low lol.

Yes, it is a success. LOL Keep believing that's underperformed for only being a streaming device.

When the biggest gaming site on the planet says you have an exclusivity deal, you can squash it instantly, but the fact Sony has remained quite speaks volumes.

I never had any intention of buying the game, mainly because it's from China, so your projections are always off like usual.

Forbes was first, Windows Central 2nd. Their sources was from Xbox, as it was IGN too. Sony has no obligation to explain because there is no secret deal, Xboy. How there can be a deal when first PS5 videos were showed just 2 says before official release. LOL And Sony haven't marketed that game.... AT ALL

Again from other thread

It just show how Microsoft and Xbox are very weak

MS are also publicly calling the devs liers this way.This whole situation is surely making wonders to the relationship between the devs and Xbox

Paul Tassi backtracked btw. And he was the FIRST who published it. Jez Corden admitted that his source about Wukong is from Xbox and later backtracked and sais there is no paid deal. As Imran Khan said, source is the ironclad, someone who is so mad at Xbox because Wukong isn't on Xbox because, of course, shitty Xbox development environment. Like Kyle Bosman said in his Delay Input, all bad rumors about Xbox needs to be squashed regarding Wukong ( first 5 minutes)

PS5 Pro ( as a Slim too ) does have a stand. Otherwise how they would be in horizontal position?

They have a vertical stand included? (the one you see in the image they are promoting the PS5 Pro with). If so, then why is Sony saying that the stand is sold separately to stand up the PS5 vertically? Nobody believes you. We believe Sony. Nice try.

You, Xbox sucker, said there is no stand. There is, for a horizontal position. So, STFU.

There is a piece of cheap plastic to make it stand in horizontal position. You have to buy a separate stand for vertical position.

There is, but Xbox peeps said there isn't any with PS5 in the box.

For the founder's edition if you could even get your hands on one. Getting a GPU in 2020 was an expensive endevoure.

I think I just figured out Sonys hustle here.

-Make the PS5 Pro a digital console

-Drastically drop availability of the disc drive

-Boost sales of the PS5 slim with the disc drive

-Folks keep the disc drive, sell the PS5 slim and use the drive on a PS5 Pro

-PS5 console sales jump dramatically

You listed an old no longer in production GPU (that's a good deal stronger than the PS5 pro GPU), I corrected you with a far more modern and capable GPU that can be had for cheaper. You made an irrelevant and uneducated point, as usual.

After taxes all said and done = $1243.

That depends on the province. In Alberta and the territories you can subtract about 100 from that total. In the maritimes the console costs like $1265 if you include the drive and stand.

The more tears the more I want one day 1. Problem is it's a lot and I wasn't prepared for that... lmao.

I'll be getting one either way even though it isn't necessary, but something tells me if the PS4 Pro only sold to 13 or 14 percent of PS4 total sales numbers then the PS5 Pro might be under 10 percent if they don't drop the price.

I don't want one just to have one though, I want the extra frames, resolution, features, and stronger internet capabilities for less lag and freezing in online gaming. It is certainly a luxury though, and I feel as though all the memes and trash talk are warranted.

This coming from someone who got an Ouya, Shield, Luna, Ally, and just about every other off the wall system available. Honestly something like this feels as though it was marketed at people like me, but that makes absolutely no sense due to the fact most people don't have the time, money, knowledge, care about small incremental increases, or are big enough enthusiasts to give a shit. Honestly it appears that SONY shot themselves in the foot again.

I'd probably buy one too if they had something along the lines of FPS Boost for BC games.

They showed nothing that makes me want to get another Playstation.

All of the games they showed running at 60fps.............already had 60fps modes. It just gave you more resolution..............but not real resolution.

Not a great selling point in my case.

They have a vertical stand included? (the one you see in the image they are promoting the PS5 Pro with). If so, then why is Sony saying that the stand is sold separately to stand up the PS5 vertically? Nobody believes you. We believe Sony. Nice try.

You, Xbox sucker, said there is no stand. There is, for a horizontal position. So, STFU.

There is, but Xbox peeps said there isn't any with PS5 in the box.

Calm down, you are raging and lying for no reason. You need to stop taking things so serious and stop insulting others and spread lies and misinformation. Life is too short for you to lose your shit over plastic.

ps5 slim does not come with stand. sold separately. but you still stand it vertical without it. most people do even with launch ps5.

It does come with stand. For horizontal position. This Xbox sucker Kvally claimed there isn't any. Yet he calling me for spreading lies. LOL

@Pedro: The cow damage control is epic. I love how they’re now defending the Pro not having a disk, when they were all over the rumor about a diskless XSX mid-cycle refresh.

They’re defending the price.

It is just such epic copium.

I have been saying for years that “every time Sony thinks they can do what they want, they gouge the consumer.” If this thing is a hit, you will see a $1000 PS6 and $100 games.

Notice how you both are talking about "Cows", it's clear that you are triggered! 🤣

Triggered? No. Unless you mean "triggered into laughing hysterically at you", then yes I am.

You cows never learn, you just take it up the backside every other gen and ask for more.

Hey, maybe you can work harder or take a 2nd job in order to afford a PS5 Pro? After all, that's what Sony wanted you and your ilk to do to get a PS3!

PS5 Pro is indeed expensive, but it's an optional upgrade. The PS3 was the bigger fail because they expected people to just pony up and get it. X360 helped Sony learn their lesson. Hopefully the next Xbox system does the same.

Again? LOL. You know this is an optional purchase, right? And I didn't say I WOULDN'T buy it. I just have an issue with the separate disc drive, as a lot of people do

You think that Xbox peeps like @dabear, @Pedro, @last_lap , @SecretPolice, @kvallyx understands that PS5 Pro is an upgrade for enthusiasts, but not for mass market? Xbox fandom are pissed, mad, they have mental illness because Xbox hardware is failing, basically dead. Xbox games will run best on PS5 Pro. Even MS now is advertises their native games for PS5 and showing middle finger to Xbox fandom. **** them anyway.

This shit is 600$, but for 100$ you will get 3x more powerful console. LOL

This is even worse shit, same as PS5 Pro regarding price and Xbox fandom cheered for this. Now they shit on more powerful Pro for the same price as this shit Xbox Spongebob. See the damn hypocrisy and how Xbox fandom is dumb??

The $500 XSX is the one with the bigger HD, it's $100 more for an extra 1TB of disk space and better wifi.

You cows don't learn, you just get milked. Sony did the same thing with the PS3. And, if PS Pro sales suck, you can bet you arse they will discontinue the "launch PS5".

And finally, if the PS5 Pro is not the "mass market" PS5, are you going to refrain from reading/commenting/posting on DF videos that show the difference between the PS5 Pro and XSX? If it's not the "mass market", standard PS5 console, why should a comparison to XSX matter?

@navyguy21:

My biggest gripe is the lack of specific details around each upgrade.

ex. GT7 already has like four graphics modes. What the heck does that mean with the Pro?

re: the tweet - some console owners have 4KTVs w/ 120Hz etc. It's not strange to think they should try to get the most out of their TVs.

What in the world are you talking about? I am buying the PS5 Pro DAY ONE, just like I bought the PS5 DAY ONE. As a PlayStation fan, it's what I NEED. You are DRUNK. Step away from the keyboard.

Sony keeps the optical drive around for now because they are getting royalties from each Blu-ray disc sold. But they want that 30% that retail stores get for the sale of physical games. I could see them moving to physical games only sold at PlayStation Direct at some point, and then discontinue physical games. That is the direction they are taking us sadly.

Sure, bro. The difference is the $500 XSX still includes the Blu-Ray drive, and there's no need for a stand. The XSX SKUs are as follows:

  • Lauch (1TB HHD, wifi, blu-ray): $499
  • XSX White (1TB HHD, wifi, no blu-ray): $449
  • XSX (TB HDD, faster wifi, blu-ray) $599

The PS5 Pro's actual cost, to match the feature set of the PS5, is $800.
