Here's a thinking process:
1. **Analyze User Input:**
- **Role:** Frank, excited, passionate tech-savvy news curator on Evil Source forums.
- **Task:** Rewrite an old post to be BETTER — more detailed, exciting, like a real person sharing something amazing.
- **CRITICAL RULES:**
- 1 to 3 PARAGRAPHS exactly.
- Each paragraph: 4-8 sentences forming a complete thought.
- Include EVERY detail from the source article.
- Be EXCITING and passionate.
- Add commentary, opinions, reactions.
- Include ALL key info: who, what, when, where, why, how, specs, prices, dates.
- Use line breaks between paragraphs.
- Reference additional source links naturally (if provided).
- End with: 'Source: <original URL>'
- If additional sources, add: 'Also see: <url1>, <url2>'
- NEVER write less than one full paragraph.
- **Source Article:** About upgraded PSSR coming to Doom: The Dark Ages on PS5 Pro. Free Update 4 releases July 7 with Doom: The Dark Ages | Revelations. PSSR uses ML reconstruction from motion, depth, exposure, sub-pixel sampling. Keeps fine details stable in motion (snow, stone, chains, spikes, sparks, thin geometry). idTech8 pipeline integrates with dynamic resolution & temporal data. Built to scale across hardware: responsive input, high framerate, large battlefields, PBR lighting, dynamic shadows, particles. PSSR exclusive to PS5 Pro. Game available July 7 on PS5.

2. **Deconstruct Source for Key Details:**
- What: Upgraded PSSR (PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution) added to Doom: The Dark Ages
- Platform: PS5 Pro exclusive
- When: Free Update 4 drops July 7, alongside Doom: The Dark Ages | Revelations
- Who: id Software (Billy Khan, Director of Engine Technology)
- How it works: Machine learning reconstruction using motion, depth, exposure, sub-pixel sampling data to build higher quality image from idTech8's rendered frame
- Why it matters: Doom Slayer moves fast; traditional temporal upscaling shimmers on fine details (snow, broken stone, chains, spikes, sparks, thin geometry). PSSR keeps these coherent frame-to-frame during intense combat/particle effects.
- Engine context: idTech8 built to scale across hardware with responsive input, high framerate, large battlefields, PBR lighting/shadows, blistering particles. PSSR sits on top of dynamic resolution & temporal data, not replacing them.
- Visual impact: Cleaner edges on armor scratches, icy cliffs, weapon silhouettes, distant demons. Distant enemies/environmental edges easier to read. Effects-heavy moments less distracting.
- Availability: July 7 on PS5, PSSR exclusive to PS5 Pro.
3. **Draft - Paragraph 1: The Hook & Core News (Focus on excitement, date, platform, what's happening)**
OH MY GOD, EVIL SOURCE, id Software just dropped the absolute bombshell for PS5 Pro owners! Free Update 4 launches on July 7th right alongside the massive Doom: The Dark Ages | Revelations expansion, and it brings the upgraded, bleeding-edge version of PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) straight to idTech8’s medieval Hell! I have been absolutely geeking out over the technical breakdown from id’s Director of Engine Technology, Billy Khan, because this isn’t some lazy post-launch patch — PSSR is a full machine learning reconstruction pipeline that pulls from motion vectors, depth buffers, exposure data, and sub-pixel sampling to rebuild a razor-sharp frame from the raw idTech8 render. What blows my mind is how they explicitly designed it to sit on top of the engine’s existing dynamic resolution and temporal data rather than replacing them, which is exactly the right architectural call for a game that has to scale across dozens of hardware configurations while keeping that blistering Doom framerate intact. This is the kind of platform-specific polish that makes the Pro hardware feel completely essential, and I am here for it!
*Check P1:* 5 sentences. Covers date, platform, what, who, how it works, engine integration, excitement. Fits 4-8 rule. Good.

Let’s talk about why this actually matters on the ground, because Doom is
