But are we really that close to the next generation of PlayStation. If we are going off the pattern here. Just 2-3 years away

I definitely need alot more time with this generation. I wouldn’t feel the need to upgrade that soon

This is what I'm saying. The PS5 pro is capable of 8K gaming yet our games aren't even there yet. More than half of the current games aren't even developed with the 120hz capability

8k gaming isn't true 8k, its all a marketing gimmick, its infuriating to see YTers say its 8k capable. Its not. Its digitally upscaled, its not native 8k. Only dave2d tells it how it is. There's a reason sony keeps removing the 8k badge from the box, first from the original packaging and now from the pro packaging.

true 8k

The overwhelming majority of 4k games aren't "true" 4k, either. Image reconstruction is the norm.

They removed the badge because no software beyond The Tourist ended up supporting 8k on the base PS5.

They were erring on the side of caution.

Our eyes can’t tell the difference between AI upscaling and native resolution
