You can use a controller on PC and also connect to this display with the same responsiveness and colors.

I've done this in the past when I had a desktop near my living room TV. I don't these days and the experience wasn't good enough to justify rearranging my house rather than simply buying a console.

Also, to get ahead of the people that are already twitching at the opportunity to inform me that I could build a dedicated PC just to keep next to my TV for gaming: Sure, but the cost of building one with similar performance to the pro, while using new components and avoiding Ali Express brands that may start a house fire one random evening, is over 1 grand at a minimum.

I always thought consoles were for the exclusive games and to play with friends, not performance or graphics.

Please, by all means, go email Sony and tell them to not bother with PS6. Tell Nintendo to drop what they're doing with the Switch 2. Us console gamers simply don't care about performance or graphic upgrades. Surely they should have learned this by now.

Every passing day we delve deeper into this hole that is a cold technology driven world. Instead we really should be taking the time to share our outbreaks with friends and family.

Because to me it is a worthwhile upgrade. If you compare the image quality in FF7 Rebirth specifically in the 60 FPS modes the differences are significant. The new ray tracing features in F1 2024 for the pro also made a big impact on how that game looks.

In general, I don't like gaming at 30 FPS and I've been noticing that developers don't always do a good job with their choices when dialing it back to get 60 FPS. For example, I'm holding off on buying Black Myth Wukong because their performance mode looks flawed right now, and I don't want to play it at 30 either.

I have a Steam Deck and a PS5 that I will be replacing with the Pro when it ships. So to give you an answer: I'm not going to be plugging a Steam Deck into a 4k 65" OLED TV with VRR. Don't get me wrong, I love the Steam Deck, and I also enjoy PC gaming when mouse and keyboard makes sense, but sitting on the couch in font of a giant responsive display with amazing colors is by far how I enjoy gaming the most.
