Re: Think PS5 Pro Is Too Much At $700? The 3DO Would Like A Word

@KitsuneNight totally agree, thank God I can still play all the quality retro games. Today's gaming is mostly ***** really. If it's not open world soulslike no one gives a toss. Personally I'm enjoying Astrobot on PS5 it's stunning. Yet sales are dire in Japan & UK. If this fails the hope of anything similar won't happen. And regards to PS3 I still have mine, how easy is the SSD install?

@KitsuneNight yes I agree, personally the industry is in a ***** mess thanks to all the tech obsessed idiots. Always banging on about 4k 60fps raytracing, just enjoy the damn games. The PS5 pro is the result!! Consolea should be consoles, if they want that much tech buy a pc. I'm looking forward to what Nintendo deliver next to be honest, again they aren't worried about bleeding edge tech, just amazing games. All this aside that's why I retro game the most.

Yeah and looked what happened to that, the Snes & Megadrive still kicked its ass. Not on tech but games & that's why we buy folks. This mid cycle upgrade is a joke!! The true console model was/is an affordable system, nice tech, maxed out by devs in a 5 to 6 year span. If I wanted a damn pc I would buy one. Personally the industry needs to crash!! From all this corporate greed.

@nocdaes totally with you mate, I play & buy more retro stuff. From Megadrive, Snes, PC Engine, I'm more excited for the new Megadrive game Earthion that's out this year or next. Most modern games bore me, can't stand open world, roguelike, demons souls crap. It's just endless & the same cut & paste stuff. The only modern release that's got me is Astrobot on PS5.

@SuntannedDuck2 I totally agree with what your saying. It's just so annoying, especially when I look at VR. Easily one of the best games is Astrobot, yet Sony decides not to bring the new title to VR2. Then their's the content, rail shooters, gun games are the perfect fit. Just imagine a new version of Starblade from Namco or Silpheed from Segs, or a Starfox clone. These games have the potential to be incredible in VR the sense of scale immersion would be out of this world. But no its the same puzzle or fps games.

@SuntannedDuck2 agree with what your saying. Personally the industry is consumed with profit & therefore no risks are taken. It just churns out the same stuff over & over. Which is a shame, doesn't the industry realise the demographic that play games doesn't just stop at 20 somethings. I'm 53 probably why I love time extension. The games I love aren't produced anymore unfortunately. There are some gems for sure now but I'm more excited for indie Megadrive games like Earthion, ZPF. Astrobot on PS5 looks amazing, that's something to look forward to. I invested in VR2 looks like thsts dead already. Again so many missed opportunities for VR. But devs play it safe & churn out the same generic fps games.
