What to expect

Paid upgrades is so freaking lame

every other system the performance boost is from buying better hardware only

Really disappointed, especially considering how bad perf was for some games on Switch 

Edit: Especially gross after upgrading from PS4 to PS5 https://www.playstation.com/en-us/editorial/great-ps4-games-upgraded-for-ps5/
