Nah, SSDs are a massive upgrade, even ignoring everything else.
I could never go back to the spinning disk hard drives.
Agreed. SSDs are insane. I have every console from the 2600 to the PS3wii360 but stopped at the PS4 Gen because they were terrible.
The PS5 is a wonderful machine (but I’m still only a computer bitch forever now)
PS4 was fantastic! So many great games pushing the system to it's absolute limits like God of War, RDR2, and Bloodborne. Now with the PS5 we get games like God of War 2, Spider Man 2, and Elden Ring. And you can play them all on the PS4. But no, let's release a PS5 pro before even scratching the surface of what the PS5 is capable of
Also gimme Bloodborne for my computer PLEASE and don’t require a PlayStation account AAAAAAAA
I remember watching my friend play Monster Hunter World and it took like three different 2-3 minute loading screens to get into a hunt.
PS5 is INCREDIBLY powerful, I don’t understand the need for a pro… I fully agree with you there.
The load screen improvement is from hard drive read speeds. The pro model upgrades the CPU and GPU for more powerful graphics processing.
Specifically m.2 nvme. The 4 had ssd drives. The 5 has nvme form factor which is 600-700% faster read/write than Sata drives.
