PS4 Pro or PS5 That Good ?????
-
I don't know what it is for sure but all of a sudden I seem to be getting smoked like never before, especially in the latest event games. Seems like right after the PS5 hit. Are there that many using the PS4 pro and PS5 right now ? Is it that big of an advantage. I am not the greatest player but lately I get hit real bad and can not hit [censored].
-
Has nothing to do with the ps5. Not many have it, and if they do they're probably not playing MLB.
-
I seen some youtube vids on some using the PS5 and that is why I was wondering. What about the PS4 Pro ?

Doesn't really make a difference

Everyone getting smacked in events, it isn't because of the PS5. But I will admit that I've seen quite the few people who have applauded the consistent frame rate & it's performance in MLB parks, this is completely anecdotal and I'd take it with a grain of rice until you try it yourself. I'm sporting the base PS4 & have no problems playing nor ever feel disadvantaged if that matters.

I was lucky and somehow snagged a PS5 from Walmart last Wednesday and is suppose to be ready for pickup in two days. I’m so on the fence about keeping it or selling it. I play two games MLB and GTA. I haven’t touched GTA in a year however.
I know scalpers are getting flamed hard as they should. If you use bots or any type of software and buy up 10-20 PS5s at a time you suck. I however was trying for two weeks daily, did it the old fashioned way just hitting refresh with my info ready to go. I got lucky and only have one. Basically if I sell it I will get a free PS5 from the profit. I don’t need one til MLB 21 drops. It’s the shiny new factor that intrigues me to keep it.
If I do keep it I will let you know if it plays better. I’m hoping frame drop is at least gone.

I expected this reaction but can I ask you this. Was my time from November 12 to November 25 not worth anything? Taking the time to keep my ear on the ground and chase drop rumors? To hit refresh hourly for two weeks on PS Direct to try and get in a queue? To wake up at 4am to try and get the BestBuy drop? The few Walmart drops? Just to get one console. That’s not worth anything?
What if I buy and sell trading cards from time to time. Some cards inflate in price and I make $20 on a $3 card is that not okay? What about the C8 Corvette that dealers are marking $20k over msrp, is that fine? Just curious? It’s not just the PS5 it’s everything. Shoes, vehicles, toilet paper and hand sanitizer for crying out loud.

If people are stupid enough to pay double the price because they can't wait a few weeks then that's on them. They're not victims. They're dummies.

Don't worry about what other people think. I would sell it and use your profits to get a free one in a couple weeks. Especially if money's tight for you. Their are a lot of rich people in this world too. if they can't wait they can pay you. you both get what you want.
And another car that sells above msrp is one of those speical edition honda civics. I believe it's called type R. -

Thanks man! The consumer is the one that sets the price. I went through the buying process legit and fair. Many would do the same if you put in the work too. No different than concert tickets (remember those lol). People using bots is the problem and drying the market.
FYI right now people are reporting and taking pictures of PS5s being on the shelf in Walmart’s in FL and TX. Mine arrives Wednesday in MN so there could be a chance the same is done here to? I think it’s a way to combat the bots. Just passing some info along.

Need to find me a Ps5

Blue Dodger the vehicle marketing is all hype and FOMO. Take the Dodge Challenger for example. First it’s the base, then now you need the R because we added 50hp and a stiffer suspension, now it’s the Hellcat, hold on that sucks because you don’t have the DEMON! Corvette will be the same way they’ll add the Z package and then the Stingray.
I was fortunate enough to buy one of my dream cars in February. Since then the market has inflated the price close to $5k. I suppose though I should just sell it for what I paid for if that time comes.

Target just switched their PS5 sales to pickup at store only. Check your local Targets religiously.

Sign up for a red card at Target. People sometimes confuse it with a credit card as they have that also but the Red Card is linked to your debit/bank card. It’s not a credit card at all and you get 5% off any purchase. So that’s $25 off right there. It’s not a lot but it’s at least something.
Also December 5th and 6th Target is having 10% off gift cards up to $300. You buy $300 worth of gift cards, have a buddy buy $200 for you and Boom! You have a PS5 for $450 before tax.
-
Thanks for the info. I shop at Target and have a red card. So if I did it myself it would be 270 dollars for the 300dollars in gift cards. So total price would be 370 but I would get 5% off the one hundred dollars. so it would be 365.
Or I think I can trade my ps4 pro in to gamestop and get 170 dollars credit. with 2 controllers probably 200 credit.
-
Right, if you are going digital. However the trade in option would be your best bet with GameStop and you can always go the gift card method for PS5 accessories and games at Target.
The other option would be to sell your Pro on FB marketplace for more than what GameStop would give you but then you may be without a console for a bit til a PS5 is in stock.
