<title>This Week&#039;s Bundle Discounts in The Crew Motorfest Are Overpriced and Lackluster</title>

The graphics are still the same, but the bump in resolution or clarity makes it look as close as possible to its high-end PC counterpart. The PS5 Pro Enhanced version&#039;s increased visual detail makes it look pristine on 4K OLED HDR TVs. It&#039;s too bad the newfound clarity doesn&#039;t do anything for this week&#039;s lackluster discounted bundles.
