That Spider-Man video didn't show 1 single comparison between the Pro version & the PS5 version. But They spend a silly amount of useless time showing people TALKING about the enchancements. My god, more propaganda video than anything else.
Generally I'd agree, but 60 FPS is hard to demonstrate on YouTube, considering many mobile devices are probably still capable of only 30 FPS. Going from 30 FPS to 60 FPS is not insignificant in my opinion, especially for a fast-paced game such as Spider-Man. That said, those are full of some marketing speech, that's for sure...
EDIT: Apparently (almost?) every phone these days has a screen capable of at least 60 Hz and usually even more, so this is a poor point after all.
But... there's already a 60 fps mode on the base PS5.
A 60 fps mode is not the pro enhancement this game is getting.
Well it sounds like it is if you want better graphics. Admittedly I haven't played the game, especially on the PS5, so please do correct me if I'm misunderstanding something here.
I guess the lack of a new 'fidelity mode' or whatever you want to call it is valid critique of course.
The upgrades this game is getting on the pro are not worth $700 is what I'm saying. It already looks really good on the base PS5; there's good quality ray traced reflections even in performance mode.
This is a upgrade but it's not that impressive, and I guess even Sony knows this since there's no comparisons on the video. There's games that will use the extra power of the pro in a much more noticeable way, probably.
I guess that's one way to look at it. But then they'd be repeating what everyone already knows, which would make for a poor video, but... they already did a poor video, so I dunno. I still think it's a neat upgrade, but I doubt they could really have done good video about it anyway, and then there's the question of whether they should simply have improved the fidelity mode for the PS5 Pro.
That is actually crazy... but it seems you're right. I did a quick search, and I was indeed unable to find any phone with a poor refresh rate. I'm sure such phones exist among the very cheapest phones, but the users of those phones aren't going to be buying a PS5 Pro anyway, and every single phone I could quickly find among very affordable but not the cheapest phones had at least a 90 Hz screen. Yeah, this does indeed make the video even poorer, so thanks for the correction!
Graphics have already peaked. Theres alot more important things they need to be focussing on
I agree. I feel like the PS5 Pro however is necessary to implement their PSSR to ease the transition to next gen.
I will not be surprised if PS6 will just be slightly more powerful graphically than the PS5 Pro, and the main focus is just making it faster and smoother with consistent 4K/60pfs.
