PS4 Pro review: The best games console for 4K players - Telegraph

Quote: However, having spent some time with the PS4 Pro I can say with confidence that, in this instance, the approach does offer splendid flexibility depending on your preferences. I sat with my wife, flicking through the options on Tomb Raider and getting very excited about the gorgeous detail and extra richness while she was nonplussed by the differences.

Super sampling is pretty great as well.

@Art

Well super sampling is what you get with a 1080P screen.

@Moldy

Isnt that the point in releasing 4K capable devices?

I mean if there are no 4K devices on the market then there's no incentive to buy 4K televisions. What the Pro will do is create an incentive to buy a 4K television.

Then again even if you don't own a 4K TV you can still benefit from the Pro.

S2Killinit2759d ago

Exactely. Its not like you need 4k to enjoy the benefits of a more powerful console.

Kingthrash3602758d ago

What or who is a "4k player"?
Why can't people just get what they want and play what they want?

Artemidorus2758d ago

350 for super sampling? Lol

Babadook72758d ago (Edited 2758d ago )

^^

What does that even mean? Youd rather save 50 for something with 1/3 the power??

DemonChicken2758d ago (Edited 2758d ago )

@ Artemidorus

It does make the game look better

Plus other benefits

PS4 Pro Features (4K TV not required)
- Even if a game merely patches in a 4K mode, it will be downsampled to 1080p on a 1080p set which is a huge boost to IQ
- Some games (such as Rise of the Tomb Raider) are providing a choice over visual modes. The player can choose between a focus on resolution, frame rate, or other graphical enhancements.
- Improved Wifi (5ghz) from OG PS4 and same as the Slim. Source: http://www.neogaf.com/forum...
- Quieter system than OG PS4
- Faster game loading from the default 1TB hard drive - this needs a source to confirm.
- Extra USB port (in the back)
- PSVR gaming is visually enhanced. Here is a thread with specific VR game enhancements: http://www.neogaf.com/forum...
- 1080p/60fps remote play
- Has an optical audio port (unlike the PS4 Slim)
- Better quality video clips through Share button (1080p @ 30fps)
- Ability to stream at 1080p with 60fps
- Faster SSD / SSHD game loading through new SATA III port
- 1 GB of new standard RAM is added to the system. The net result is approx. 512 MB of GDDR5 RAM freed up for games. The rest of the added RAM is for other purposes (OS, 4K). Source: http://www.polygon.com/2016...
- Improved DS4 controller included (Slim too), with a more accessible light bar and lower latency when connected by cable (doesn't force Bluetooth)

Definitely not. Theres benefits for 1080P owners as well. And if developers want to they can increase graphical detail for the 1080P version.

uth112759d ago

Don't they mean "only console for 4k players"

i didnt even know there was a leak ha.

Relientk7712h ago

This is news to me. I had no idea the games from the State of Play got leaked.

Jin_Sakai4h ago

I seen the list posted and instantly got excited for Astro Bot. Everything else was meh.

CrimsonWing694h ago

I’m pretty sure leaks or not, by the end of the show people will still be disappointed. The only highlight for me was MH: Wilds… everything else was mid to forgettable. Hope them HaaS games you got lined up really work out for you, Sony. Everyone asking for Bloodborne Remake, Wolverine, and, uh, well other games like that could’ve made this epic. Instead we get Concord, some derivative Souls-like games, that were fine looking, and a Silent Hill 2 Remake with horrible character designs and janky combat animations… great.

rayford153h ago

I wasn’t disappointed it was a solid B

TOTSUKO1h ago

For a State of play it was actually alright. People are overshadowing it because they want to cancel Sony to high hell for Gaas which is not fair for the other devs who revealed great looking games that were just shown. I get it you don’t like gaas don’t buy it. If it sells well good for the people who had interest no big deal? If you are a PlayStation fan what’s wrong with PlayStation trying to cater every gamer? I don’t understand that smh

ravens522h ago

Where Winds Meet and Ballad of Antara both looked good. Not to mention Astro Bot. It was a decent show. For me personally it was a 7. I'm sure to some people it was actually really good cause they'd play all those games. 🤷🏽 Personal taste

MrNinosan1h ago

I wasn't dissapointed.
And no, everyone doesn't want a Bloodborne Remake. There is probably very few who's actually asking for it, but the ones who do are loud on internet.

CrimsonWing691h ago(Edited 1h ago)

Oh, my mistake. It’s definitely not one of the most requested games when it comes to remakes with news stories talking about it 🙄

Silly me. It’s just a very few that are actually wanting it…

Introducing Evercade Alpha, the first Evercade-compatible arcade machine. This bartop-sized arcade gives you everything you want in a home arcade machine with one big feature - full compatibility with the Evercade cartridge ecosystem.

darthv721d 9h ago

I like the Mega Man one more as it has a better variety of games. Strider, Carrier Airwing, Final fight... The other is all SF. Plus i like that i can pop in any of my evercade carts to play as well.

Garethvk1d 9h ago

As long as it is durable; it's a deal.
