Instead of generic "AA" souls type games or the plethora of rpg's, how about tapping some AA love into the other genres that i believe are still available (Platformers, Arcade Games, Fun Racing Games not boring simfests, Shoot Em Ups, FPS's, etc etc) For reference look at how successful the xbox360 xbla days were (variety)
@carlos82 I got the QN95 Mini Led, the black levels are superb compared to my old Qled, im surprised Samsung jumped on the Oled train tbh they were making great strides with mini led, usually motion smearing is something associated with Oled.
@Tomato_Goose You need to see the games on an actual decent tv to see the differences. The main differences i see with the pro are kinda like a phone screen with a screen protector on (ps5) and then a phone screen with protector off (ps5 pro)
Wish there was way to guarantee a pro with the foxconn fan, the pro i got (and returned) had a horrendously loud fan and coil whine compared to my launch model, seems the further into the gen we go the cheaper the components they use get, who knows they maybe even just overclocked the existing ps5 gpu on the pro.
Mines is going back. Coming from a launch ps5 to the noise of coil whine and fan noise on the pro is too much for £700. Also no usb a to c on the front ports and having issues with games taking far too long to exit back to dash (my tv basically drops the signal for a while before reconnecting back to the dash) tried 2 different hdmi 2.1 cables.This wasnt an issue on my og ps5. Should have followed my own advice and never buy day 1 consoles. I'll sit it out for now.
Ive noticed on my pro that the light bar only reaches half way along the console (i had a launch ps5 before and was way brighter).
I have went into the settings and its set to standard (bright) is this something common on the slim and pro ?? I have my console horizontally btw.
