    A lot of people are criticising Sony for raising the price of the PS5, but this is actually a good move and they're saving you money For example, I was originally going to buy a PS5 for 499 euro but now i'm not buying a PS5 at all

    PSSR is the most exciting thing about the PS5 Pro by far IMO. If the Pro can upscale native 1080p to 4K with CLEAN image quality, it will be a complete gamechanger. Probably going to see this tech in the PlayStation 6 and beyond. FSR just isn't cutting it atm.

    This isn't unique to the Harris campaign. The Trump campaign has already been featured in numerous video games from Wolfenstein to Call of Duty WW2.

    Fox News hosts laying the blame on gamers. FBI agents on CNN saying violent video games caused this. a Kennedy wants the government to research links to mass shooters and first person shooters. it is 1998

    bruh It's an image of a fridge. I added a fridge next to the Xbox Series X and called it the PS5. It was a joke.
