minus-squarejordanlund@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up59arrow-down5·1 month agoNobody wants to pay $310 ($80 for a disc drive, $30 for a stand) more for a machine that looks better if you pause the game and squint hard. Here’s a good example: Can’t see it? The PS5 Pro has added reflections on Venom’s back and right shoulder. The texture on the door of the Jeep is marginally improved.

minus-squarePriorityMotif@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·1 month agoNo point in high fps when consumers don’t know that their tv is only 60hz and they still have whatever motion smoothing options still turned on.
minus-squareNewNewAccount@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10·1 month agoWell I’m a consumer and I can guarantee you that i can tell when a game is running at 30 vs 60 fps. Still not buying a Pro though.
