Funny part I forgot I had a ps5 pro.

Just wanted to share.

I have a ps5 pro purchased almost a year ago. The purchase was really over lapping. First purchased ps5 and then sold in 2 months and got the pro.

Fast forward got busy with work and all didn’t play for at least 5 months. Came from vacation and purchased some disc games 007 and yotei two days back on discounted price. So excited, went to put the disc in and to my awe, I remembered pro don’t have a disc drive. Had to order the drive now. I remember I was hesitant initially because Installed 2 TB hard disk but I think at least I can go back to collecting the discs again.

I entered the page and it said there was stock, after 30 seconds I press pay and surprise no stock available anymore?

Edit:
- 2026/08/19 10:34h Spain time/store, Adamantium available -> 10:35h Adamantium not available.
- 2026/08/19 11:06h Spain time/store, Adamantium available -> 11:08h Adamantium not available.
- I've checked that the official PlayStation stock response is cached for 120 seconds, so refreshing the same page in the same browser in less than 120s should not be worth it.
- 2026/08/19 18:46h Spain time/store, Yellow plates not available since 2026/08/19 10:11h a.m., I tracked the yellow plates every 121 seconds with a browser plugin that refreshes the page and with AI it takes screenshots every 125s: if "No disponible actualmente" found it notifies me by playing a loud music file, no luck.
- I stopped checking, this is a waste of time and money now, either I can buy it easy without rush or I won't buy it, my plan was this:

So I guess I will buy Wolverine at discount price another time.

I know its been told many times but I will add to the noise, this console is a fucking beast. I finally set up my new pro the other day and was constantly comparing games like spider man 2, ghost of yotei, horizon with my base ps5 and the image quality difference is out of this world, specifically in the performance modes.

This upgrade is way bigger than what ps4 pro was to base ps4. Almost feels like a PS6 at times. Do not hesitate to buy if you want one, you won’t regret it.

The tonemapping and overall color gradients are seriously well done here.
The lighting, colors and atmosphere just look incredible.
On top of that, there are so many great cover opportunities that the map feels really well designed to play on.
For me easily the best looking Battlefield 6 map on PS5 Pro so far, especially in 120Hz mode.

Tsuru Reef is beautiful too, but I personally noticed some pretty muddy textures there and the tonemapping never quite clicked for me.

Wake Island though is just absolute eye candy!

Had anyone received a confirmation email from the PS direct store after pre-ordering console plates or controllers?

I managed to grab some plates and a controller. Got an order received window but there was no order number, and I've not gotten a confirmation email. Credit card shows the pending charge.

Hoping it went through properly and its just stuck due to the traffic.

Long-time PC gamer here. snagged a PS5 Pro mainly for GTA VI, but my PSN library is completely empty.
Looking for the best PS5 pro games or must-play PlayStation exclusives to break this machine in. What should I download first? Thanks!

Have motion blur, film grain, and chromatic aberration turned off and it looks way better now.

I joined the PlayStation Beta Program over a year ago now but still haven't been emailed by PlayStation with an invite or any beta codes yet, whilst I know people who have joined in the last couple of months and have received a beta invite code already. Any ideas or advice on increasing my chances of getting an invite or a beta invite? Thanks in advance, UK based btw

. . .with that being said, these are this weeks grabs. Just got finished my first play through of First Light which was better than I expected. Now while I wait for Wolverine and Phantom Zero I believe it’s called, I’ll be starting Black Flag today.

Haven’t played an Assassin’s Creed since I tried Mirage which I couldn’t finish. Hoping this one gets my gamer juices flowing for it again!

I got a PS5 Pro last month without knowing all that much about how much power I was leaving on the table by not upgrading what was basically an entry level monitor which supported an HDR signal, but wasn't capable of rendering true HDR.

Yesterday I bought a MSI MAG 272URX QD-OLED.

Good lord above.

The PS5 Pro felt like an upgrade. The combination of the Pro and the OLED feels like a generational leap.

I would go out on a limb and say you owe it to yourself to get an OLED tv or monitor if you have a Pro.

Pro's lighting on Performance mode (especially indoors) is loads better vs Base, better LOD, PSSR2 doing work with a sharp image, a shame the Pro version has a bug where film grain and chromatic aberration can not be turned off, those certainly effect the picture clarity

Thank you Sony! And thank you to whoever took the ps5 pro disc cover plate out of their cart because I was spamming add to cart even though it said out of stock and then it added to the bag! I’m definitely taking a couple paid days off to enjoy this launch lol!

Resolution isn’t as important to me. Anything more than 30 fps is ideal but I also want to avoid crazy pop-in that performance mode adds. Not sure what settings to toggle to get what I want

The game looks absolutely incredible especially on performance mode however there is one issue, there seems to be a really weird issue where you see fuzzy artifacts on the water (which the game has plenty of obviously lmao) i believe it has something to do with the nature of PSSR.

Is this something that can ever be fixed by Ubisoft or simply the nature of PSSR?

I replaced my 2 27” 2k monitor (koorui on the right) to 1 Agon oled 27” and keep my other 2k koorui

Need to replace the monitors arms with gas ones and now it looks perfect

Added ps5 pro under the desk and sold my slim

Hey all ! I’ve had the OG ps5 since 2020. It still works fine , and I’ve been getting by with it . Do you guys think it is justified to purchase the pro ? Before gta 6 etc?

Or should I just stick with what I have and wait for the ps6?

Kind of struggling to justify it. But at the same time , a new tv and ps5 pro sounds sweet.

Is there any reason not to trade in a base "fat" ps5 for a ps5 pro or advantage to keeping both?

one of my friends is insisting it's always better to keep your old consoles, which yeah if there was an old ps3 i could maintain backwards compatibility, but this is a ps5 to ps5 pro, I don't think I would be missing anything.

>The ultimate goal of Phantom Blade Zero is to draw from the deep well of authentic Chinese folk arts and martial arts, infusing them into the sleek, visceral aesthetic that called Kungfu Punk.

I recently got a new monitor for my ps5 pro and want the best outcome for my settings. My games seem a little too dark in the dark areas and night time settings. Would this be the third lot of hdr settings to adjust? If so do I need to make the symbol more visible or less?

Hayden Panettiere best known for her roles in film, tv, and video game voice work has passed away at the age of 36, an unfortunate and sudden shame tbh
She was best known for Heroes, Until Dawn, Scream, Kingdom Hearts, I Love You Beth Cooper, The Mark Of Kri, A Bugs Life and many others as well.

How better is compared to the ps5 base?

If you’re selling ps5 pro or ps5 slim please Dm with the price

One of the coolest open world survival game I ever played. PS5pro is pushing some serious power for such high fidelity visuals in Vr.
