I would absolutely buy one, and I would also agree $1000 is way too much, but I would be happy to grab one for myself because I can...
Same with the Pro.
I wish I could post screen shots so I can show you that the PS4 Pro sold out in hours in most places, and days in a few other regions... So please, do your research.
I agree the value sucks, but I still want one and bought one... I'm the early adopter type.
I mean, every console from Microsoft and Sony sold out there first run initially in the US except PS3 and Xbox One... Soooooo there is that to think about.
You are also wrong. Another quick search of Google or Chat GP shows that the initial run off Xbox One X sold out, and the Project Scorpio edition sold out Very Fast, similar you the very very very small run of Pro 30th Anniversary Edition.
This might be the first Sony or Microsoft console that didn't sell out initially...
A simple search on Chat GP or Google will show you that the initial run off PS4 Pros "sold out quickly". I remember barely getting my pre-order in. So honestly, this comment above is fake news.
There won't be "exclusives" to just the Pro. It's a Mid Gen Refresh, it just gets upgrades.
I think the small step isn't terrible, but it's the huge cost increase that is. I still got my pre-order in though... 🫣
Is it better than a $500 Series X? Or a $450 Series X as they often are on sale?
I'm a big fan of the mentality that, value wise, the Pro is a terrible device. But, if you simply want the best available at any cost, it's about to be the most powerful console system available.
If you think GTA 6 will hit 60fps on the Pro, well... I hope you aren't banking on it.
I ordered my Pro just because I'm a tech nerd and love having the best there is. If I can get a good HellDivers 2 res increase with a steadier frame rate, I'll be happy. But 60fps GTA 6? Dream land...
I think it's indicative of what happens in a consumers mind when the price increase percentage outweighs the technology increase percentage...
So wait, when Microsoft started it before game unrelated ads, it was a HUGE deal...
Where can I buy me some Sony gloss?
Did you just defend the ads? 😳
Only because everyone paints it that way, and glosses over the others when they make cutbacks
Guys, they night more studios then Sony had to begin with. You have to look at it percentage wise, then compare.
It's the same wave, they are just now letting them go... But people are reporting it as new to make it look bad
That's such a di@k thing to say...
Honestly, all I need is Ray tracing and 40fps. That's my sweet spot. Been playing Avatar on PS5 at 40fps and it's great.
Ratchet and clank also looks great at 40
Don't worry, they still didn't sell out, so you'll have no problem getting one
I got the Pro at 1230pm Eastern no problem, and it was still available at 5pm
They already turned it off again?
