The PS5 pro is using similar scaling tech, but both my Bazztie “consoles” can play some games native 4k, and using DLSS/FSR with a 2k signal like the pro will be doing obviously gains more titles.

The older games are referring to the PS5 pro line up, it’s all older games that most pc builds around this price can compete with. List taken from Polygon:

• Gran Turismo 7 (supports ray traced reflections between cars in gameplay at 4K 60fps, and a dedicated 8K mode, according to CNET)
• Horizon Forbidden West (as well as an overall “detail boost,” there are “improvements to lighting and visual effects” and to “hair and the skin in cinematics,” according to Mark Cerny)
• Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 (high resolutions and detail at a distance, including the trees and procedural cars)
• Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart (distant details will be more clear, such as during the opening parade scene)
• The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered (offers greater visual detail at 60 frames per second, including sharper details at a distance)
• Demon’s Souls (no specific enhancements outlined)

I used laptops as an example for someone who does not want to build, but my living room one is a mid AM4 from 2019 build that I put an AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT in. So about £800 build the cost of the upper end PS5 pro and not far off the base. My Nitro 5 was £700.

My comment was more about the irrelevancy of consoles once they start getting past the £500 mark, used to be that you’d have a good advantage over a mid-tier PC for about 2 years. Now it’s basically on par for the same money short of wanting to play exclusives, which Sony hasn’t really been pumping out this gen. Where the PC library is huge, add in Emulation and it’s even bigger.

I do even more appropriate if you count DLSS like the pro is, “play older games” basically what Sony has atm

You can get a gaming laptop for that stick bazzite on it or use steam big picture on launch you’ve got a platform that does +60fps 4k HDR with 40 years worth of games. Consoles are getting very close to being irrelevant unless you like sports titles.

Copy and paste is the fastest type

Great way of putting it

Yeah, I guess it means they know people don’t care, and they can do what they want. What are you going to do, use the scary CLI OS that’s for nerds. Or spend loads of money on a walled garden, no just stay in the cosy middle.

All my windows friends and family just don’t care, computers are a utility, and they won’t learn something as easy as Mint or Bazzite. To them, they still see Linux as it was in the 2000s.

There are whole businesses dedicated to MS, like everything they do is MS. You hire an IT firm, they’ll plonk a load of Dells in your offices and spin up Exchange 2019 where everything bespoke is programmed in C#, despite their being better products because it’s all they know. They spent all that money on MS partnerships.

Microsoft have created a stable ecosystem we didn’t learn in the late 90s or the mid 2000s and we will carry on because at this point it’s effort. Unless you’re Germany…

I always wonder where the line is for the majority of people, maybe there isn’t one and they know it. You’ve got to hand it to Microsoft nearly 30 years and they still have the majority.

Altogether now children “It’s a bug until…it’s a feature!”

The real world experience

“Hi so to save us some time I’ve restarted the computer, went ahead and assigned a static IP to all devices and put them all on the same sub net. While in the router I noticed there was a firmware update so I managed to do that removing the ROM chip and wrote an open source os that uses half the resources of the factory one…”

“Ok sir could you restart your computer”
