Battlefield 1 and Mass Effect: Andromeda run at checkerboard 1800p instead of native 1800p on the PS4 Pro and the devs explain the reason.
Did ASUS just hint that a black version of their ROG Ally handheld PC may be on the way?

Back when the Xbox 360 launched, Microsoft pushed the big budget game as a differentiator. Following all the recent layoffs, it’s clear this strategy has run its course.
The Microsoft shill take on the Microsoft causing the death of big budget gaming...
The whole driving force for growth in gaming both technologically, creatively and financially was all nonsense, and it was definitely not because Microsoft ran the industry into the ground with obviously bad decisions and creating an unprofitable business model that massively disrupted consumer spending habits. /s
LOL, this article is a big pile of dog crap...
Spencer has been constantly telling ppl that NO they would not go the route of having games like TLOU, Uncharted, etc because Playstation exists and prefers to focus on a diverse portfolio.
How many years have we seen Xbox as no game and we don't want small games like ORI, Pentiment, Grounded, etc.?
That's the real tragedy and why lots of gamers are mad at MS right now
because they have been championing smaller titles and yet fired the ppl delivering exactly what they were proning about.
So no the only nonsense is that MS seems now to be going BACK to AAA popular titles..sorry, I meant refocusing effort on core established IP where broken GAAS might be rewarded versus praised and rewarded work.
I'm not sure if this article is poorly worded or I'm just confused. Do they mean that the games are running at lower resolutions (e.g. 1440p) and are being checkerboarded to 1800p, which then either the pro or user's TV upscales to 4k? How bizarre, I always thought 1800p checkerboarding meant they run a game natively at 1800p, then use the checkerboarding feature to create more color pixels or whatever cernimonology is used (I understand nothing.) to give a convincing pseudo-native 4k image.
Man, there needs to be a clear definition on the phrase "1800p checkerboard" if this is the case. Either way, the comparison shots between PS4 and PS4 Pro are impressive!
1800 checkboard. Thankfully dice mentions what "resolution" the game "runs" at here even though it uses checkboarding. Apparently the effects they use are so demanding that 4K and 1800p is just too much for the ps4 pro.
I was gonna say "Horizon zero dawn did checkboard 4k with ease" but then again theres tons of effects and gun fire going on in Mass effect battles.
Mass effect is a cpu bound game after all.
