Why are fanboys like this?

    Tech people have utterly lost connection with normal people, I think. An enthusiast who cares enough about Playstation to want a faster PS5 probably owns discs. Also the fact that they didn't improve the CPU in any way, this thing is cooked.

    When gamer shit gets too expensive people will just quit buying games and consoles, as they should. Anticommunist propaganda always used to say "and a car cost a month's paycheque" well, a PS5 Pro costs like, a third to half of the north american minimum wage, I think?

      You would think Sony would have learned this lesson the first time. Apparently not.

        At least with the PS4 Pro it slotted into what used to be the price of the PS4. I think the issue is the PS5 was incredibly overpriced but goofballs were desperate to get one anyway, so they got a big head about it. Also regarding the CPU, I guess they literally just want slightly better graphics lol
