- 😬 The PS5 Pro is struggling with some titles
- 😫 Silent Hill 2 remake and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor have issues
- 👎 Currently, Silent Hill 2 runs worse on PS5 Pro than it does the base console
- 🤷♂️ There are over 50 PS5 Pro enhanced games, but each title varies in terms of improvements
Time for PS5 Ultra Pro Max
Or they gonna introduce GPU attachments instead of the disc drive lmao
But seriously, it’s beyond sad how awful this “upgrade” is. First it’s an insane price for minimal upgrade, there are no new games to even make use of this, and now even older games can’t properly make use of the better hardware. The whole reason to even upgrade diminishes really quickly, and it wasn’t even worth it in the first place.
Although it’s kinda funny to read about people who bought the Pro and then share negative reviews how so-not-worth the purchase was. Listing all kinds of negatives that they could’ve known prior to buying one if they put in even minimal effort to research.
The one good thing the PS5 pro brought was the news that scalpers got fucked up because the demand is so damn low
I still see the PS5Pro as a bit dumb, but also not sure what Sony could easily do around this problem.
We’re at the graphical plateau where any improvements become extremely expensive, and increasingly hard to notice. Sure, we have 4K TVs and we’re not quite able to play all our games at 4K 120fps, but very few people care about that level of detail. Honestly, I don’t even know what Sony may be planning for the PS6 while still keeping it at a reasonable price.
Release a slim model and some colors?
Gaming’s problem is games. I have no idea why Sony keeps throwing more hardware at less games if hardware is the loss leader in the gaming industry anyway.
Go bribe Remedy or FROM or somebody for an exclusive, wash/rinse/repeat the Bloodborne strategy.
Ray tracing. It makes good looking human skin. But if course it only matters for 3D games that aren’t cel shaded.

They’ll paint flames on the side to make it go faster.
So 2 out of 50 games aren’t really improved, aka 4%.
Turns out you can’t just throw better hardware at every game to make it run better, who would have thought.
This works for PC but not for PS. PS games are highly optimised to target the current generation of consoles and there is very little initiative for developers to target a new console platform unless Sony sells tens of millions of those, which I very much doubt.
It shows how devs often look at better hardware and prioritise heavier features over image quality and performance. Current gen of games could easily do 4k60 (most last gen games run like that) if they didn’t try to get RT into the mix, but devs don’t like that as RT gives them more time and resources that originally would’ve been spent on placing lights or baking scenes.
No thank you Sony.
Silent Hill 2 is a strange beast, you can tell it runs horribly. I’m sure a cracker or something is figuring it out.
Don’t buy the Ps5 pro though, there’s no point.
CMV but the PS5 Pro is a completely pointless release. The only reason I see is for Sony to try to justify the higher price tag on the PS6 once it releases.

The Ps5 has games?
Games don’t need to be PS5 exclusive to be PS5 Pro enhanced.
