Listen Later

Retro and current gen gaming chat, with Trev and Stu, its the Console Shockcast! The Sony PlayStation 5 Pro has finally been revealed, with the main talking point being its eye-watering £700 price-tag. Do the upgrades that come with it make it worth the extra cost, or should you just save the cash for a PS6? We discuss!

  • Stu is still addicted to Call of Duty!
  • Trev has another go at PS3 emulation on Steam Deck, is it any better?
  • What motivated Sony to release the PS4 Pro back 2016?
  • Why aren’t current gen consoles becoming cheaper over time like previous ones?
  • Do the ‘Pro’ upgrades justify a purchase over the standard PS5?
  • No disc drive included, and issues with digital only devices.
  • Is £800 for an OG PS5 with PSVR2 a better deal than a PS5 Pro?
  • Are there parallels with the PS3’s original controversial pricing, and other expensive consoles of the past?
  • Will the PS6 have even more models in varying form factors and price points at launch?
  • Check out Trev and Al’s other podcast where they reminisce about a different episode of Star Trek every month! : https://longrangesensors.com/episodes Intro/Outro Music – Egg Carrier: A Song That Keeps Us on the Move (Egg Carrier Theme) – Sonic Adventure (1998) – Sega Dreamcast – Composer(s): Fumie Kumatani, Kenichi Tokoi
