Wow, this is awful. Some people reported that these ads are also very petty and not necessarily related to the game, like apparently Elden Ring shows an ad for a licensed mousepad when you hover over the game now...

Edit: Playstation Product Manager says this is actually a new bug. I really doubt it but they do seem to be "fixing it".

$700 gets you a pretty nice PC these days.....

I'm still using a 1070ti and hitting stable 60fps with newer games. Medium to low settings, usually but most slow down comes from poor optimization since I'm running a 12th Gen and regularly see medium usage on both GPU and CPU.

It's still worth it for the freedom and then upgrade with time

12th Gen i5 and a 3060 will outperform a PS5 pro

That sounds like a pretty nice PC to me. Probably not going to play everything on ultra, but neither do consoles.

With a 2 min search I found a cyberpowerpc prebuilt for $700 that included a r7 5700 and rx 6700. And yes, you can absolutely get 60 fps at 1080p on some aaa titles; I don't know where you get that idea you can't, especially if you can tweak graphics settings (for the record, most pc gamers don't even use ultra- high and medium presets are the most reasonable settings). I'm sure a title like Diablo 4 doesn't require tuning at 1080p at all.
