It’s officially the most powerful games console to ever wear a PlayStation badge, but Sony’s blink-and-you’d-missed-it PS5 Pro reveal didn’t do a great job of explaining why gamers should be queueing up to part with their cash. “Those games that make you pick between 30fps but clean or 60fps but fuzzy? Yeah, you won’t have to do that anymore. $700 please.”

The PS5 Promight have a lot more GPU muscle and will make heavy use of AI-based upscaling to boost frame rates, but I’m not convinced that’s enough of a mid-generation leap to justify an upgrade. Sure, you get 2TB of storage onboard – but it’s the work of a few minutes to stick an M2 SSD in your current console – and a whole lot cheaper.
