Idiotic tariffs, indifferent retailers, depraved flippers and AI mania are making the simple act of buying a graphics card the defining misery of PC gaming in 2025.
And there hasn’t been another option for years but I’m seeing an awful lot of buzz for the PS5 Pro with people ditching PC and enjoying that more casual, sofa with a controller approach.
Buzz for the Pro? All I’ve seen is people sneering at the lack of games taking advantage of the extra capabilities and the price.
I still think the base model is a better deal.
Totally. Base is much cheaper. Especially the digital version. I think those looking at GPUs at twice the price of a PS5 Pro are given a new option though and my observation is that they’ve been vocal about it
This doesn’t sound true. I can no longer name 1 friend who prefers console and PS5 pro launch was pretty terrible. Hell, even I got back into PC gaming thanks to VR
