ThePS5 Prois here, and its the underwhelming mid-gen refresh we all expected it to be.
Is The PS5 Pro Worth $700?
Thats a tough question, and for the majority of console gamers, I would say a definitive no.
Thats fine, but the PS5 Pro is aiming for a different crowd altogether.
The absence of a disc drive despite already costing $700 is still unforgivable.
I refuse to believe that Sony couldnt have accounted for that in the Pros design somehow.
In a twisted way, its kinda fun.
But what exactly has proven most impressive?
While the other is lowering the resolution to 1440p in exchange for a higher framerate.
Now, for a very high asking price, the Pro delivers both and looks and feels incredible.
Ill never get over the unusually cheap approach PlayStation takes to packaging its products.
Very little about the unboxing experience felt premium, which is a big shame.
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is a more recent example of this at play.
Something was missing, and now its back.
At least, for the time being.
Not to mention there are still a bunch of existing games in need of updates.
