Thanks Rich, great article! I still remember the time when DF team highlighted NFS Most Wanted PS Vita vs PS3 Video as one of the biggest surprises in terms of view count 😊 is it still getting views?
In the end, PS5 Pro, same as with the PS4 Pro, is an optional purchase. It's really good that you don't have to buy it to have a great time on the base console. PS5 Pro is definitely an improvement over the base console, though, however it's not a price-performance king due to the high asking price. PS4 Pro had easier time to penetrate the market due to basically slotting in to the old pre-reduced price level of PS4/slim. Nowadays with prices going up instead of going down, it's only natural that PS5 Pro is a much more expensive offer. And also PS4 Pro distinguished itself as a "4K" console while base PS4 didn't support anything past 1080p.

Hello John! Love coming back to this article. One question always bugs me though - have you had a chance to check the PS4 version (Mars edition)?
