The remake of the PS2 classic ironically appears to have PS2-era frame rates on PS5 Pro. Okay, not really, but it's worse than the base PS5!
After months of holding off, Sony has raised the price of its PlayStation 5 console lineup in the United States and the PS5 Pro is now a whopping $750.
PS5 console exclusives typically become great technical showcases for the PS5 Pro, with the next releasing pretty soon.
Following in the footsteps of Xbox and Nintendo, PlayStation will be raising prices on its various PS5 consoles.
Sony's PS5 Pro console might be touted as a superior machine, but the performance is notably worse when running Konami's remake of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.

Both versions of the PS5 Slim and the upgraded PS5 Pro console will be $50 more at US retailers, but if you were about to give up the idea of ever getting the Sony console, there is a small bit of hope, as some retailers haven't yet made the change.
