[toucandela]

Didn't someone say Playstation sales were down in Europe? Wonder why.

 

[Sircaw]

I guess between a 7700XT and 7800XT.

and thats like 400 bucks +?

and thats like 400 bucks +?

The 7800XT is 500-600€ depending on the brand.

Edit: Nevermind, it is referring to covers.

 

[Entropi]

So this doesn't use the existing optical disc drive for the PS5 Slim?

It does.

and thats like 400 bucks +?

The 6700 was around $300, 7700XT is +$100 and the 7800XT is +$200

I don't understand this at all. Why do gamers act like Sony has a PS5 Pro with a gun to their face. This is for the people (like me) who don't mind spending a couple extra hundred for better performance.

Why is it completely normal for PC folks to casually add parts that costs hundreds of dollars, but when console players get an upgrade. we're getting ripped off?

 

[Gediminas]

700$ and cant even play Bloodborne at 60fps

10000$ PC and still you can't play Bloodborne at 60fps.

WTF is this retarded comments?

 

[KvallyX]

It does.

Yeah, I read it wrong. It was referring to new covers.

 

[Sircaw]

All i know is if i ever trade in my ps5 I am not giving them the STAND.

 

[Entropi]

Yeah, I read it wrong. It was referring to new covers.

Oh crap. I hope the covers for the slim are compatible.

i don't get it either, you get what you pay for.

plus, no one if forcing anyone, this is PREMIUM console, which targeting gamers, who wants MORE POWA.

800 euro bucks for digital only...we aren't leaving this gen for years and years.

I had expected 600 and 700 with disc drive. I can't justify this...yet

Quicker loading on the PS4 Pro is what got me to get a Pro along with a quieter jet engine sound. The PS5 is perfect for the casuals. The PS5 Pro is for power whores.

That's true, there's a huge double standard.

I do feel like 700 is justifiable in some way but 800 euro is a bit too much.

But I will get when I can.

 

[Gods&Monsters]

I'll get it (maybe) eventually but my Spider-Man LE PS5 is more than good enough for me

People acting like PS5 Pro is too expensive compared to Xbox when the new 2TB Xbox is $599. PS5 Pro is much more powerful and is only $100 more than the Xbox Series X with the same amount of memory (and PS5s memory much faster)

 

[SuperPotato]

10000$ PC and still you can't play Bloodborne at 60fps.

Actually, you can play it at 1fps via emulation.

 

[ethomaz]

The price is what most expected without a PS5 price cut.
Performance wise it is a small jump but can have better results with PSSR.

 

[Gediminas]

-Planned 40-50 games with PS5 Pro upgrades at launch, focusing on 4K/60FPS upgrades along with graphic boosts-PS5 Pro could spark a range of extra gaming modes (Cerny has seen games with 3 different PS5 Pro modes)

The PS5 Pro is expensive, but it's worth it IMO, if they need to remain profitable. It's totally optional, so people don't have to buy it if they don't want to. I will be trading in my OG PS5. As for the new Series X, it is $599, but also includes the stand on the bottom and the disc drive. If you add the disc drive and the stand to the PS5 Pro, that makes it $799, a $200 difference. So it seems pretty even with $200 additional performance in the PS5 Pro vs. the Series X.

The Series X has one big downfall though, it doesn't play PS games.
