MODERATORS
From someone who is all-in on Sony stuff (PS4 & PS4 Pro, PSVR1 & 2), this is tone deaf. Too much money for 5 Pro with not enough to show for it. Let alone disc drive and stand are extra too. Bizarre.
Disc drive I can understand, with the push for digital, but vertical stand? That's just cheap.
It feels like a weird time to launch it too. 60million are still on PS4. This is just going to fragment things even more for gamers and developers alike.
If I was buying a PS5 today? I'd buy the more powerful one.
But will I be upgrading from my 2020 PS5? Not unless it breaks.
The games look great, but not noticably greater than what the PS5 already does. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Who wouldn’t want to pay nearly 1k EUR (incl. stand+disc drive) to play 6 year old PS4 games with slightly better performance?
Yeah, just get a PS5 slim? should be fine if you don't want the disc, or buy used PS5. My launch PS5 is still doing really well. But I stopped playing any multiplayer game on it and stopped PS Plus.
I mean, I have a ps5 since a very long time. But I just haven't seen any good exclusive yet.
Sony's been tone deaf since at least the 2011 hack, possibly since the price and architecture of the PS3.
Being "all-in" on Playstation at this point is like defending an abuser.
