Poll: *The Official PlayStation (PS5/PS5 Pro) Thread*

Mine is jammed in quite a small tv unit gap and it's getting quite hot but not loud at all.

Tried tlou2 and it looks fantastic and tuns at 80-90fps same as ratchet and clank.
Horizon runs 60-70fps but looks incredible.
Really impressed so far.

Think I need to buy a VRR tv. Still running a 7 year old lg oled b5.

Can’t really upgrade as it works perfectly… :/(

Been playing Spiderman Remaster, can’t believe I’ve waited this long, kinda reminds me of Arkham City so many side stuff to do like finding hidden backpacks, stopping crimes or just marvelling at the views. Game looks great and plays so smooth running in Performance Pro mode with 120Hz enabled, this is why I brought an LG OLED the Pro makes it so worthwhile.

Maybe do it next year with C5 or S90E around this time

Heh eh. I was praying for 2013 LG 55" LCD to die, so I could upgrade to an OLED. I ended up getting a LG 65" CX to compliment the OG PS5 in 2020 and gave the old TV to a friend.

LMAO, scalpers are forced the sell the Pro under retail because of the availability, love to see it I can already get a boxed console with proof of purchase for under retail around here, I bet it'll be the same story with the drives if I wait till this thing is actually worth upgrading to.

Meanwhile, more patches please and make them the best you can, AW2's framerate is a disappointment (and the fact I still can't play Hogwarts with RT even at 40fps) but if SH2 and Wukong run well, I might fold and get one

I also hope devs focus on those 40fps modes, they have such potential and no one bothers.

Let’s hope the PS6 launch follows a similar trend of excess supply.

If they charge a high price tag for the PS6 like the have for the PS5 Pro then they will not have any stock problems

I think after the pitiful amount of actual good games released on day 1 or even day 500 for the PS5 and the seemingly continuous support to cater for the previous generation; I'll pass getting anything on release day again. Reports suggest a PS6 is not likely to emerge any sooner than 2028, so who knows what the gaming landscape looks like then.

After playing Forza Motorsport on the pc for 12 months I'm struggling to get my head around how good Gt7 looks on the Pro even without the update.

Oof.

Oof

GT7 is vastly superior to FM. It's not even close, sadly. I still enjoy Forza Horizon, though.

Yeah, Sony isnt in a rush to release the PS6.

Many games are still stuck on the PS4 way of performance as PS5 and Xbox Series X got off to a very slow start.

 

[Things change I've changed]

So do games need a patch to improve performance? for example could I run a game in fideality mode and it run at higher frames now without a patch?

If it has an 60fps cap or uncapped frame rate then yeah but if it's 30fps cap most you'll get is maybe bit cleaner image

Set up the pro last night played fc25 runs smoother and looks better very impressed with that it's night and day different even going through the menus.

Black ops 6 it's a solid 120fps according to my lg ultra monitor FPS counter even in zombies in later rounds in very intensive crowds it's locked 120 the game also looks a lot crispier compared to the ps5 slim and my Xbox series X which can look blurry at times.

Noise wise yeah they still is coil whine and a fan noise but I've had 3 OG ps5s and 2 ps5 Slim's and 1 digital ps5 slim they all either have bad coil whine with low fan noise or a loud fan that over powers the coil whine. Your not going to get a silent playstation like the Xbox series X.

Don't worry, we'll be able to choose among probably around 10 remasters on PS6's release, controller sold separately.

 

[Plainsong]

Don’t forget that stand.

 

[Mobius 1]

My tracking says its still at the “National Parcel Hub” ….. it’s probably been set up in the ******* staff room.

 

[BuffetSlayer]

And maybe the power cable and covers plates too!!

I've got a 55" B7 and feel the same, difficult to justify an upgrade when it still looks and works great. May consider a 65" G4 next year though when the prices have come down a bit.
