Right, but if it came out "PS4 vanilla = 30fps and PSPRO = 60fps" for FFXV that would be a seller for me

If PSPRO just means slightly crisper looking anime hair whats the point

I do not like the way that implies that slightly crisper anime hair is not a worthwhile end in and of itself.

Thread moves fast. Did they say anything about a 60 fps Bloodborne? Cause that would actually make me consider it.

No but it's very likely in the works, since they said they were working on patches for over half a dozen first party titles. Although it really depends on whether the CPU is a huge bottleneck for that game.

if they had Bloodborne 60 fps in their pocket I'm pretty sure Sony would've called the console "Playstation Bloodborne 60fps" instead of calling it the Pro cause then everybody would have just agreed it is worth buying instead of worrying about UHD or whatever the gently caress

they will sell 1000x more consoles talking about call of duty and mass effect than bb though. maybe the japanese stream will focus on different games.

If the PS4K doesn’t support UHD Blu-rays, I’m really struggling to see the point of it. I mean, there are people who won’t mind the $100 upsale, but it’s pretty dumb if I’ll have to get something else to watch 4K Blu-rays.

My PlayStations have always been the ones to help me move to the next generation of media, so it’s hard to make sense of this.

What should we expect the recording/streaming functionality to be for the Pro? Same crappy streaming bitrate with 720p60 with recording disabled? That would at least be an attractive upgrade.

There’s always the slim possibility that it includes non-garbage wi-fi. No point in upgrading tho. We’ll have to wait and see how it handles heat dissipation, too, and the fans might either be better or worse.

Has anyone seen the back of the Pro model yet? Does it still have the idiotic slant the regular PS4 does that prevents you from being able to see and plug in anything from an overhead view?

Yeah, considering most of us had to update our physical media collections from DVD to Blu Ray already, I cannot imagine most people are interested in yet another upgrade.

Physical media is dead and the future is in streaming. At least, the company that invented Blu-ray seems to think so.

It also comes with the new controller. No new features other than seeing the light through the touchpad but it's likely constructed better.

I am interested how much HDR affects input lag since it seems to be a post-processing feature on the TV. I just got a Sony 4k tv but without the HDR since the model with the lowest lag was the 810c

Wow, it's even on the bottom row so you have TWO ridges obstructing it! Sacrificing functionality for design in places no one will even see except when trying to plug things in. So hip!
