The entire PS5 UI is far worse than the Xbox's. I'm still annoyed about them reversing the functions of the long and short presses on the PS button. I don't know if anybody uses them, but the activity cards seems to be a huge waste of space to me too.

A second controller and charging station are almost a requirement for all PS5 owners. I know the Dual Sense has more features than the Xbox controller, but I can literally go weeks without the need to charge my Xbox controller while not being able to go more than 2 days without charging my Dual Sense.

Two things that are a bit annoying right now with the PS5.

The store seems needlessly complex. You have a pre order section that lists a small section of games. There is no true coming soon section. If you scroll down to the one area where you can select PS5 games you get a mixture of games that are out and just announced games. Also would it be that hard to put on the box covers that a game is VR only. Just slap it right at the bottom where it shows if it is a PS4/PS5 game.

Second, if you are going to raise the prices of the controller $5, how about raise the battery life while you are at it.

I hate killing any type of animal in games. It's one of the things I disliked in the Tomb Raider series.

I'm guessing you're on Seattle day 2 or 3. Just wait, you'll be more pissed off.

As much as I am enjoying TLOU2 they did something I hate in games. Having to kill dogs. Multiple dogs, that are not wild but trained dogs with handlers.

I tried to stealth through it but never got far.

I agree - frame rate is more noticeable and more important to me. I can tell immediately if a game is running at 30fps or 60fps, but I'd be hard pressed to tell the difference between 1440 and 1080 resolutions.

That makes sense. I am definitely running most games in performance mode. I always prioritize framerate over resolution. That said framerate is more noticeable to my old eyes over 1080p vs 4k resolution.

Well it's not like I am the intended audience for the Pro as I just bought the PS5 digital slim. Everything I have played so far on it looks and runs great. Plua the Xbox remains my base console.

Most games are not running at native 4K, especially games running in performance mode or 60fps. Even games running in fidelity mode at 30fps can be running at 1440 or 1080 and upscaled to 4k, and even then the resolution is dynamic.

But if a game is native 4k and my TV is 4k, what exactly is going to be upscaled? A question from someone that is not tech savvy. I have no clue how this stuff works.

It sounds like something you see on the back cover of an EA Sports game or when Sony came out with the "Emotion Engine" for the PS2.

Every game will benefit from upscaling, evidently.
