A reader suggests that Sony would’ve been better off releasing a more advanced PS4 Pro rather than start the current generation with the PS5.
Was the PS5 a bad idea? We’ve had a lot of disgruntled PlayStation 5 owners writing in recently, but the one that caught my eye was last week’s Reader’s Feature about someone who said they weren’t going to bother buying one, as they didn’t see any point in upgrading their PlayStation 4. As someone that did make that jump I can sympathise with that, although it would mean missing out on great exclusives such as Demon’s Souls, Returnal, and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.
Sony and Microsoft knew games would be even more expensive to make this gen, but they went ahead anyway. That would’ve been okay, up to a point, if they had some sort of plan for dealing with it. But it’s clear they didn’t. Instead, it looks like the problem took them by surprise which is… stupid. And now they’re going to go ahead and commit exactly the same mistake again and make the problem even worse.
