"Why the PS5 Pro Isnt Selling When Sony dropped the PS5 Pro they thought everyone would be running to get one but the results have been quite the opposite nobody is buying it. On paper its a beast: a better GPU smoother frame rates and even AI upscaling. But when they launched it for $700 and decided it was a good idea to sell the disc drive and vertical stand separately gamers looked the other way. They failed to realize that for most players the regular PS5 already runs their games just fine. Even Pro owners admit the difference isnt huge in everyday gameplay. In terms of sales its already"

"PS5 Owners ARGUE About This One Thing. PS5 owners have debated for years whats the right way to place the console Some say vertical looks cooler Others prefer the horizontal setup But online claims started circulating that standing the PS5 upright could cause internal damage with talk that the liquid metal under the APU might shift due to gravity hurting the consoles cooling performance. But according to Sony there is no difference in cooling performance between vertical and horizontal installation.

"Discovery Of The R3/L3 Buttons Was TRICKY 😂 Remember the day when a game asked you to press the R3 button and you had no idea where it was I remember pressing every button except the right stick. Thats because the controller didnt have the R3 and L3 buttons labeled clearly. Some gamers even shared stories of thinking their controller was broken and returning it to the store. Funny thing is the manuals did include a diagram showing where the R3 and L3 were and that pressing the stick down acts as a button. But most of us were too young or too impatient to read instructions"

"Sonys PS2 Almost Got Banned The PS2s CPU was so powerful it scared governments. Officials literally thought doomsday was coming. The PS2s main processor was extremely advanced for its time so much so that it was briefly labeled as sensitive technology. It had the kind of processing power that could be used for missile guidance radar systems and even nuclear simulations. In theory officials worried someone could buy thousands of PS2s and connect them into a distributed supercomputer. Because of this Sony had to work with governments and navigate strict tech export laws to prove that the PS2"

"Why Old Games Had Cheat Codes Why did older games have cheat codes in the first place Theres a real reason they existed and it wasnt for players. And once you hear it cheat codes make a lot more sense. Back then games were harder to test but developers needed a way to jump levels fast. So they built secret inputs to give themselves infinite lives max items or instant level skips. But those codes stayed in the final game because removing them took extra time and deadlines were tight. Then something interesting happened. Players found the codes and loved them. So studios started adding fun"

"Why PS Dev Kits Cost +$3000 (and Why Gamers Want Them Anyway) PlayStation dev kits cost $3000 and you wont believe why people buy them PlayStation dev kits are used to run and test game code. Sony loans them to licensed developers for development and theyre returned as soon as the work is finished. If you owned one youd be able to run pirated games. Even worse if a game still in production were to be leaked you could run it on the dev kit. Thats why Sony will take legal action if you obtain one illegally. #sony #playstation"

"PS2 Memory Card Held Your Whole Childhood Remember the PS2 memory card It was only [--] megabytes but it felt magical. If you didnt have one you had no choice - you had to play a game from start to finish in a single sitting praying nobody unplugged the console.But with a memory card you could finally save your progress. And the best part It was physical. You could carry it in your pocket take it to a friends house and plug it in like a personal key to your gaming world. Nothing today feels quite like that little piece of plastic. #sony #playstation"

It doesn't even run games on its own and can't even use cloud streaming outside your house. Instead of a true handheld fans felt it was just an overpriced remote screen nothing like the PSP or PS Vita. What players really wanted was a real portable PlayStation a successor to the Vita not a $200 accessory. #sony #playstation"

"Surprising PS2 Features You Never Knew Existed Surprising PS2 features you never knew existed. This console was hiding functions most players never touched. And some of them were way ahead of their time. The PS2 was known for games but it quietly did more than that. It doubled as a DVD player which sounds normal now but back then it replaced standalone DVD machines in millions of homes. But then it added something unexpected full music playback with custom visualizers you could watch for hours. So suddenly your console worked like a media center not just a game box. But it didnt stop there."

Early PSP owners couldnt transfer their old UMD games and they would have to repurchase them digitally. And back then buying digital content wasnt common.

"One Hacker Changed the PS3 Forever When the PS3 was released Sony marketed it as unhackable. This claim would reach the attention of an infamous hacker named GeoHot who was famous for unlocking the first iPhone to use multiple mobile networks instead of just one. He turned Sony upside down when he announced he had successfully gained root access to the PS3. Sony unhappy with this took GeoHot to court. But this caused a cyberwar revolution with the hacker community backing up GeoHot with support. Sony began to witness cyberattacks from the hacker group called Anonymous. Another hacking group"

"PS2 Memory Card Held Your Whole Childhood Remember the PS2 memory card It was only [--] megabytes but it felt magical. If you didnt have one you had no choice - you had to play a game from start to finish in a single sitting praying nobody unplugged the console.But with a memory card you could finally save your progress. And the best part It was physical. You could carry it in your pocket take it to a friends house and plug it in like a personal key to your gaming world. Nothing today feels quite like that little piece of plastic. #sony #playstation"

"The Dark Side of PlayStation Trophy Hunting PlayStation Trophies have become a huge part of the PlayStation community. Sony introduced them in [----] to compete with Xbox Achievements and ever since trophy hunting has become a hobby for many gamers. The sad part though is that players get nothing for collecting the most Platinums. The Xbox [---] actually rewarded gamers for achievement hunting giving them special props for their avatars. Sony should at least offer something maybe a lifetime PS Plus membership. #sony #playstation"

"Why the PS Vitas 3G Was a Total Scam Remember when the PS Vita launched with 3G Sony promised gaming anywhere even without Wi-Fi. But in reality it was a letdown. You couldnt play multiplayer on 3G and most games barely used it. It was basically just for leaderboards and small updates. Even worse it was locked to AT&T with data bundles starting at $15 for [---] MB and $25 for [--] GB. For those reasons most people just bought the Wi-Fi version instead. #sony #playstation"

"Why PS Dev Kits Cost +$3000 (and Why Gamers Want Them Anyway) PlayStation dev kits cost $3000 and you wont believe why people buy them PlayStation dev kits are used to run and test game code. Sony loans them to licensed developers for development and theyre returned as soon as the work is finished. If you owned one youd be able to run pirated games. Even worse if a game still in production were to be leaked you could run it on the dev kit. Thats why Sony will take legal action if you obtain one illegally. #sony #playstation"

"The Strange Story of the PSP GPS System Did you know the PSP once had a GPS system In [----] Sony released a tiny add-on that plugged into the PSP turning it into a navigation device. You could use it for maps geocaching and even some special games that reacted to your real-world location years before smartphones made it normal. But the PSP GPS was slow had limited software and never got strong support outside Japan. #sony #playstation"

"Why Gamers Rejected the PlayStation Portal When the trailer for the PlayStation Portal was released we all thought we were getting a PS Vita [--] only to find out it was just a device that lets you stream your PS5 games onto a small screen that only works over Wi-Fi. It doesn't even run games on its own and can't even use cloud streaming outside your house. Instead of a true handheld fans felt it was just an overpriced remote screen nothing like the PSP or PS Vita. What players really wanted was a real portable PlayStation a successor to the Vita not a $200 accessory. #sony #playstation"

"One Hacker Changed the PS3 Forever When the PS3 was released Sony marketed it as unhackable. This claim would reach the attention of an infamous hacker named GeoHot who was famous for unlocking the first iPhone to use multiple mobile networks instead of just one. He turned Sony upside down when he announced he had successfully gained root access to the PS3. Sony unhappy with this took GeoHot to court. But this caused a cyberwar revolution with the hacker community backing up GeoHot with support. Sony began to witness cyberattacks from the hacker group called Anonymous. Another hacking group"

"Did Hackers Finally Jailbreak the PS5 The era of running pirated games and emulators on consoles might not happen on the PS5. However in late [----] modders found an exploit that gave them the ability to read and write into the console's file system. Modders were able to access a debug menu and install PS4 games but it wasn't possible to actually run the installed games due to a lack of execution privileges. One modder successfully installed a PS4 Silent Hills demo but was unable to launch it. PlayStation took note of the efforts and decided to increase protective measures even more so in"

"Why Sony Tried to Kill Custom PS5 Plates Before launching the PS5 Sony made sure that third-party companies didn't make a dime. When they announced that the PS5 will give owners the ability to customize their consoles with faceplates what they failed to mention is that these faceplates must only be made by them. So they made sure to add design patents on the faceplates to prevent competition. But the company Dbrand threw a middle finger to PlayStation and released their Darkplates with a bold marketing message directed towards Sony saying "Go ahead sue us." Stepping on the snake's tail Sony"
