Kind of funny because most games on the PS5 Pro have performance tuning settings. It's not as comprehensive as you'd find on a PC game, but it's clear the console audience is also wanting to tweak how their game runs. And,

The difference being the lottery system. When scalpers know they are competing against other scalpers, they know they will corner the market and everyone will pay. Which is how they make money. With the lottery, a good chunk of those syst

There's probably more to it than that, and Valve just isn't telling us all the details. It's likely they are weighting accounts that have a lot of (recent) game activity and game purchases as well. Plus, they have access to
