Support NeoGAF

[Spyxos]

Since the rumors are increasing that there will be Pro versions, I would be interested to know how many of you would even buy one. Do we even need them? Are they coming too soon? Personally, I don't need them yet.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

 

[Evolved1]

Yes. Today.

 

[TexMex]

PS5 Pro, yes. Would just upgrade my PC again over an XSX Pro though.

 

[mortal]

I have no idea if a "pro" version is worth buying or not. As of this post, I haven't seen it nor know anything about the gains.

 

[radewagon]

It depends on what they can bring to the table. I'm a solid maybe.

 

[bentanchorbolt]

Probably not if the only upside is better visuals. It has to do something more, like being vastly better at ray tracing and then having games that support it en mass.

 

[Josemayuste]

Maybe yes, maybe no, if it ends up being as noisy and marginally better than what it was for PS4pro to PS4, no, thanks.

 

[DAHGAMING]

I probably would as im a dumb cunt. Last gen it felt right, 4k and all that shit, but this gen what will it give us, the ability to play shit games like Gotham Knights at 60fps ? I dont know, It just feels like this gen hasnt realy started and were coming up for 2 and a half yrs.

 

[Mossybrew]

I don't get the sense that the standard PS5 is being pushed to its limits, so just not necessary anytime soon IMO.

 

[theStartupSound]

Since I didn’t buy the PS5, but think about doing it in the future, I would like to buy a PS5 Pro instead – feels better than having two almost identical machines (I already have an Xbox Series X)

 

[Monad]

My beefy 4090 and more and more Sony games coming out on PC (at least the ones I'm most interested in) say no.

 

[FunkMiller]

Does it actually come with some fucking games that push the hardware? Because I already bought two 'next gen' consoles that are still choked with cross gen games two and a half years after they came out, and at least one 'next gen' console that is consistently held back by its retarded little brother.

So... day one.

 

[feynoob]

It's better to invest on my PC.
Ps5+ps5pro+xbs+xbspro is expensive for me.

I can upgrade my PC for cheap, while current PS5 and (future xbs) is enough for me now.

 

[lachesis]

I am a hardware nut, so I would be interested... but will have to see what they come up with.

 

[reinking]

Not right now. Maybe if we see some titles that would take advantage but I don't expect the difference in Pro models to be that significant. We're not really seeing anything that is pushing the current systems.

 

[jshackles]

I barely turn my Series X or PS5 on now as it is. I'd rather take the money (these things would inevitably be pretty expensive) and sink it into a more powerful graphics card for my PC.

 

[Neff]

Of course not.

 

[Radical_3d]

Nah. The PSPro wasn’t worth it for me.

 

[rofif]

I would but it’s not needed or wanted. I would kinda felt cheated as it’s still fkn crossgen

 

[BennyBlanco]

 

[EN250]

Give me a reason first? For now PS5 is working well, no game is too demanding, or we didn't reach Cyberpunk 2077 Xbone/PS4 levels of lack of HP to run it correctly, so for now I don't see the point in getting a Pro Version

 

[Banjo64]

I’m happy with the PS5, just want a slim.

Later on in the gen if Sony’s games are 40fps @ 1080p-1440p I’d be more than happy.

 

[Indyblue]

I’d like to say it would depend on price and features and whatnot but if I’m being totally honest, yeah. I’d buy a ps5 pro

 

[ZoukGalaxy]

Nope.

You poll is too exhaustive and without any real "NO", a yes/no would be more effective and would allow to see better the ratio.

 

[Kokoloko85]

Yes, easily. Why not?
If you dont want it, dont buy it. Its probably more for the hardcore fans just like PS4 Pro. Made the games much better for me

 

[Mr Hyde]

No. I'm good with PS5. I didn't buy a PS4 pro either. PS5 hasn't been utilized properly with very few games taking advantage of the hardware, so I don't feel inclined to shell out another 500 for a new box. Developers barely cared for the previous Pro-iterations so from my perspective it's just a waste of money. Also, the generational gap for the eventual PS6 becomes smaller with mid gen refreshing. Although I think this will be my last console generation.

 

[odhiex]

Maybe, even if I am not, I would not against them if they are exist. Technology advances forward, they may serve different audiences, who demand the latest and greatest (just like smartphones, tablets and high-end PC components). I am sure the standard PS5 will be supported for a long time, like they did with PS4.

Should PS5 Pro is real, then we should expect even higher specs and capabilities of PS6. Simple.

 

[SeraphJan]

Definitely, I want to stay 60 fps

 

[Art The Clown]

PS5 pro is a day 1 purchase.


Series X pro not so much.

 

[Metnut]

Have a PS5 and right now XBox has no games I want, so no need to buy into the MS ecosystem.

At some point around 2025, Starfield will be patched and mostly bug free and games like Avowed and Fable will be out. At that point, I’ll probably buy a MS console and might as well go with the “pro” option if there’s on available. Would be great for third party games too.

 

[Lunatic_Gamer]

 

[Woggleman]

I will complain about it on here and then still buy it day one.

 

[Putonahappyface]

 

[TheGreatMusashi]

No, I didn’t get the One X or PS4 Pro. I haven’t even had the PS5 for all that long. I think it’s kind of crazy that it seems to be happening so fast.

 

[Punished Miku]

Nope.

 

[DownLikeBCPowder]

I'd buy a discounted standard model Ps5.

 

[Chinpoko_Master]

I'd buy a pro version of the Xbox Series consoles. I actually bought myself a Series S to tide myself over while I wait for the pro version.

 

[Ceadeus]

Imo, the industry does not need better hardware right now. It needs amazing developers and artists with broad vision.

There`s no purpose for a Lamborgini if the driver found its permit in a cereal box.

 

[STARSBarry]

It really depends, the big ask would he Ray Tracing at 60FPS... even if its 1080p.

The issue is that the consoles use AMD which as people know are behind in this technology. Even on the latest cards from AMD they are behind even weaker cards in the Nvidia 3000 series nevermind the current 4000 line up in this regard.

This means that really until AMD release their next generation of GPU and the Ray tracing pipeline upgrade for that I honestly can't imagine them hitting 60FPS with Ray tracing on console.

 

[Crispy Gamer]

Can't wait

 

[Mister Wolf]

Hell no.

 

[qiqiqiiq]

Yes, I had an original PS4 and Xbox ONE back in the day but had to sell them, and after many years I bought a PS4 Pro and a One X and I would have never gone back to the slim consoles because to me the games ran and looked much better, so yeah I don't mind mid gen refreshes because I appreciate that extra level of image quality or performance they offer, and it's not like the regular PS5 will stop existing due to a PRO version being released.

 

[Bernardougf]

Only if they make a "real" pro .. not some minimal spec upgrade to sell this luxury product to a niche crowd at a cheaper price

 

[PCFanboy64]

Hell no, both consoles already feel like a bit of a waste so far. I've used one to play GoW:R and the other to catch up on old stuff and replace my emulation PC.

 

[EverydayBeast]

Ps5 has been great, Sony will go ps5 pro soon.

 

[DonJimbo]

A PS5 Pro in a heart Beat if it's real and if the Super Duper Series X is more powerful than the PS5 Pro aswell

 

[Schmendrick]

I'm contemplating if I need a console at all if even Sony is porting to PC now. So this gen it's a no from me.

 

[Ozzy Onya A2Z]

Yep, my daughter can have the One X (son's current console), son take my existing Series X and I'd buy the Power of X Pro or whatever stupid name they come up with for myself.

 

[MikeM]

I already have a Series X Pro (PC).

Day 1 for PS5 Pro.
