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…
Or two Steam Decks!

Or 73% of a PS5 pro if you’re in Canada!
Or 1 US Steam Deck and a hooker!
Or one steam deck and a fuck ton of games!

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