That's the silliest argument I've heard yet.

Not having a neo may limit the performance of the PSVR.

Where was all this crap when HD was rolling in? Studios closing because they couldn't afford to keep up? Nevermind the mess involving PC when Crysis and Doom 3 were a thing.

So, any guesses on how many more of these we will see before it is debunked?

wow!

Hopefully this will make the base model cheaper. My quest for a second ps4 is almost complete! Between ps4 and NX I'll be in heaven.

Nice title.
I agree.

Mirrors Edge is rumored to be 720p on Xbox One. What kind of creativity does the xbox One limitations exactly push!?

Let's not forget about the double standards. If tomorrow Microsoft announce the same thing, lots of people will say Yes! This is the future, well done. The same people criticizing Sony about this will be the same people to glorify MS tomorrow if they decide to do it too.

4k chip iside a console for cheap currently hell no, my 980 can barely do it on some games and its now 500 bucks

Wrong.

While I get the being pressed against a wall pushes creativity... it does.

When JFK said we'd go to the moon, we had to be creative to develop the technologies to do it. Hell we had to think up what technologies we had to invent. We got computers out of it.

So I get where the guy is coming from.

But... he's wrong because the PSVR, 4ktv, and likely UHD Bluray all fit together. A PS4 Neo will help drive the PSVR. It'll work without it. But if you want it to be what it should be, you need a more powerful system.

Now we have that option.

I would be very surprised if it doesn't contain a UHD blu ray player. The dev kits don't right now, but UHD players just came out a couple of months ago. The supply of them is tight, and there's no need to put them in devkits... at least right now. Hell we don't know exactly when they started shipping them. Was it last week or last month? It very well could be they made the devkits before UHD players were even available.

But this will allow game devs to make their vision. Many of them increased their scope of the game they wanted, but found that their vision was too large even for a PS4 and sacrifices have been made since launch. Obviously more on the XB1.

So now they'll be able to fulfill that vision, and they can appropriately not push too hard on the OG PS4.

If a certain 'feature' is sucking up too much power, they can keep that one out of an OG PS4, and keep performance great on it. But still use it on the PS4 Neo version. It draws lines which place things in better position to both be done well.

Many gamers have said they can't see the difference between 30FPS and 60 FPS. I don't know how that's possible, but apparently it is. So you guys don't need to buy the NEO. The same games will come on the same systems. If you don't care about graphics that much, or don't think it is worth the money.... don't buy it.

For those that do care, then buy it. It gives us more choice. No one is forcing anyone to do anything.

Tell me again how the multiplatform strategy was supposed to fix everything. Look at your results and compare them to Nintendo, which keeps thriving with exclusives. Your loyal fans are gone. And let’s not forget the pile of IPs you purchased only to let them rot.

The worst thing is this is down from last years numbers/expectations which was down from the previous years numbers/expectations. You think about how long “down” has been a consistent part of the communication and you realize those subscriptions are what’s holding that boat together. The price cut of gamespass is still a price raise in a string of price raises. They are trying to use players to offset the missing revenue. Now call of duty is out of gamespass, which is literally WHY they bought the company. To draw people to the subscription. They realized they missed a boatload of money and that wasn’t sustainable. Now you pay for it like you would have if they never bought the company… so why buy the company? Mind you those billions still need to be paid back. Yeah it gives you a chance to say we make the biggest FPS… but the internal conversations must be brutal at high level on topics that really matter. Like revenue. Profitability. And ROI for the shopping spree.

Is this like the 10th quarter in a row they're down 33% on hardware how is that even mathematically possible. You would think their mediocrity would Plateau
