MSFS on PSVR2: Is PS5 Pro Actually Better? (Beta Review)

Is Microsoft Flight Simulator on PSVR2 a technical marvel or a blurry disappointment? I’ve spent the last 24 hours diving deep into the MSFS Sim Update 5 Beta on both the Base PS5 and the PS5 Pro to see if console VR can finally handle the world’s most demanding flight sim. After years of playing on a high-end PC (now running a 5070ti), I had low expectations—but the results are surprisingly inconsistent.

In this video, I break down the performance, the “8GB streaming” controversy, and whether the PS5 Pro actually offers a meaningful upgrade for VR pilots.
In this video:
•PS5 vs PS5 Pro: Does the Pro actually fix the frame rate or resolution? (Dubai Red Bull Racing test).
•The “Stranger Things” Performance Torture Test: Why dense DLC environments make the frame rate tumble.
•Base PS5 Visuals: From the “ghostly mesh” of London’s Millennium Dome to the stunning Grand Canyon.
•Controls & Mapping: Why you might want to stick to the DualSense over the Sense controllers for now.
•MSFS vs Aces of Thunder: Which one deserves your money right now?
•The Verdict: Should you buy the expensive bundles now or wait for the full release?
