Poll: Will You Buy a PS5 Pro?
- Thread starter LetsEatSnacks
- Start date
I will get one, not bought a PS5 and there are now a few exclusives I want to buy.
Was going to buy a PS5 at start of the year, but decided to hold out for the Pro.

Sure, but I kind of just tend to buy the latest and greatest so Im pretty much the target demo (didnt buy the Switch OLED though, no interest to me)
Like others have said, the best thing about a PS5 pro would be lowering the cost of the base PS5

I have decent gaming PC and most things come out on it now so it is the biggest reason for me not to.
But I also know GTA 6 will have its inevitable delay in coming to PC so I might have to buy a Pro, also what ever next is to come from Sony first party might also drive me to (new Naughty Dog game, Cory Barlog's next game etc)

Probably not, no. I didn't get a PS4 Pro when that came out, it didn't seem worth it for me. The games worked on the standard PS4, and it'll be more than likely the same with the PS5 Pro. This generation has been a weird one as it is, this as well doesn't make me want to go out for a PS5 Pro either.
Not saying anything wrong with the PS5, but (for me at least) there really isn't much pushing the PS5 to the max as it is.

I only play exclusives on my consoles since my 4090 PC does the heavy lifting for multiplats
That being said, I hate playing the exclusives with extreme compromises, such as FF7 rebirth, which i'm playing currently
Also GTA6 is coming and that's an absolute buy for me, so based on that I figure i'll just get it

Yes, I bought all the latest games on pc because I can't tolerate sub 1080p with an unstable 60 fps in some of the latest games. I hope the PS5 Pro will help with those poor performances with current and future releases.
I do not play enough games on my PS5 to consider an upgrade worth it, certainly not at launch. But if the generation lasts a long time, maybe I'll pick one up down the line, depending on price.
PS5 is my main gaming platform, so I will pre-order the PS5 Pro as soon as it's officially announced. I'm mostly interested in better performance and/or improved image quality in the 60 FPS modes. I really hope the PS5 Pro can run Dragon's Dogma 2 at 60 FPS. Please be good PSSR!
Yes, but only if it has a disc drive.
It'll be expensive enough as it is, I don't want to buy a € 120 disc drive on top of that...

I'm not sure and it would depend on a a few factors.
One of the factors would be if GT7 gets an update. If that update boosts the VR mode to max out the headsets resolution and FPS capabilities, be it native or using funky upscale tech I'd seriously have to consider it.

No, most of the games I play are indies or smaller Japanese publishers who aren't going to take advantage of that hardware.
Plus I'm used to sub-4K & 30fps titles due to the above, like the only game in my collection thatd probably even take advantage of this hardware is FF7 Rebirth…

I got a PS4 Pro a little after launch but found I was a bit disappointed with it. If the PS5 Pro is similar, (which it sounds like it will be) then I'm probably not getting one unless there's a crazy trade-in deal. The lack of a CPU boost is what generally kills it for me.
I waited for the PS4 Pro to get into the PS4 last time - I'll almost certainly do the same with the PS5 once there are enough exclusives I'm keen to play to make it worth my while (might be a few years).
I had been tempted for a while to build a new PC instead to replace my 2019 one (which has been pretty problematic for much of that time), but with the cost of parts now I'm not sure about that.

PS5 came out 4 years after the PS4 Pro, so 4 years is a good guess, most people think 2028 is when PS6 will come out, there is also rumors that the next xbox will launch in 2027.
I built a gaming PC last year, so will try to hold off from buying the Pro (already have a base PS5). For all the day 1 PC & PS5 games I'll be covered with the PC (which is going to provide better performance than the Pro anyways), but the delay in PC releases with some games is definitely going to hurt (Sony's AAA, GTA VI).
Unlikely. It'll be too expensive and I've gone in on Switch & GamePass instead. Bleeding edge power doesn't mean the whole world to me and I've resolved I can miss out on the few Sony games I'll never have access to unless they further multiplat ambitions.
Really think I'm done with consoles. Tired of fan boys, trying to figure out exclusives, and the lack of transparency from the major platform holders. I just don't trust announced console specs. They never live up to the hype. Not going to fool me again.
Going to build a really nice PC to park next to my TV. Better prices, better selection, and a better pipeline of games. Also, my tastes have changed over the years. There isn't really any console "exclusive" that's feels compelling to me. I feel liberated to be honest.

Maybe if my PS4 breaks, but I doubt it. Especially since I just had to replace the HDD and opted for an SSD. Still have like 50+ games I wanna play on the system and none of them requires any hardware power (currently playing 999: The last reward ^^)
I honestly have no urge to play any of the games that are only available on current game systems or any PS5 exclusives. Maybe I'll skip this gen alltogether and get a decent gaming pc, since most japanese stuff is on steam these days anyway.

Show me the games
I upgraded from the PS4 to the PS4 Pro for RDR2. Maybe something similar will happen here.
Also, I can't believe when GTA6 comes out it will have been 7 years since RDR2.

Considering the recent price hike of that standard version here in Japan the Pro is likely to be a 100,000 Yen console which makes it 2x what I paid for the original a launch so that's going to be a nope for me. Will be curious to see how it does sell here. Would bet most of the stock gets sent overseas as with the original edition and what does get sold here majority of that bought by resellers exporting them to China. Even all these years after I still don't know a single local Japanese person here that owns a PS5. Everyone and their mom has a Switch though.
maybe
i'll still have to get a ps5 so i'll see what they do with the price, the performance, if it has a disc drive and the price gap
i don't think they'll cut base ps5 price but we'll see

Yeah, I want to experience GTA6 at its best. Also, I think this gen is going to be a while. Rivaling the 360/PS3 generation.
