Upgrading from PS5 to PS5 Pro is an "elitist" move for those who don't know where / who to throw their extra money at...
It's a bit like any PC gamer upgrading at every generation change or so.
(Upgrading a 12th~13th gen i7 for a 14th and/or replace a RTX 3070 for a 4070...)
These are baby steps that will cost you big chunks of money and are absolutely not worth it! No matter the platform, you should easily be able to stick to a descent gaming system for at least 5 years before you can actually spend an important ammount and actually feel a decent change...
This movie serie abused and became lenghty and grew old, badly!
Like most other series like the Final Destinations and other ones where the 1st title were original, refreshing and nice, then it all just became too much and half baked.
Same goes for "The Walking Dead" which totally amazed me up the the 4th / 5th season, then I realised it was "same old, same old" and got fed up with it!
They should know better than stretching a success story for too long...
@zerojuice: Dual Channeling is overrated nowadays...
Back when we had 1~2Gb of memory running at 400mhz, I get it, every little bit helped but now that we have 8~12~16~32Gb of ram running over 5000mhz some minor tweaks likes dual channel doesn't change much.
For console gaming (Even more on Nintendo's side) Bottleneck isn't on the memory side anyway so it would be pointless to have more than 12gb and the saving might not be much from giving it 16Gb but if a little saving can be done on a product that is selling 150 millions units, in the end, it can be a lot...
@steve3030: I'd shed 1k if I knew there'd be a ton of great exclusives coming for it but Sony's 1st party isn't doing much to justify such an expense... I even bought the PSVR2 having high hopes/expectations only to play beatsaber 95% of the time not finding much fun to have.
I sold the VR2 before it got too "laughable" and just sold my PS5 last week. I don't feel like I'll be missing it much...
Just got rid of my PS5 and I'm done with console gaming!
This is the worst gen of consoles I've been part of / purchased.
The most fun I had with my PS5 has been playing previous gen remakes...
I even purchased the very promising PSVR2 only to realise I was using it 95% of the time to play beat saber, an underwhelming game which had no benefits of the promising PSVR2 hardware...
I feel the PS5 era had a lot of untapped potential which was let to waste by lazy developpers a bit like PS3 era...
But, at least during PS3 Era, first party Sony titles were amazing. This gen (PS5) Sony did absolutely nothing to make its hardware "shine"...
Video Game industry is sick, wether it's console gamings which is very underappealing or PC gaming requiring 3000$+ rigs and bi-annual upgrades to even keep up.
@AIpha2TheOmega: Finally a smart comment from someone who actually understands how things work.
If they cared to tell about it it's because that was a thing... They can't PREVENT you from just sharing your infos, but in the event of someone's passing, who happened to have a huge steam library on a locked PC with a password no one knows which ended up being formated, they simply won't assist you and allow to change login infos to grant you access to a library that clearly wasn't yours...
That is all, plain and simple and to me, it makes sense.
