Hahaha the PS4 was running with 1080p out of the box in 2013! And btw it has been receiving performance enhancing updates just like the X1!
Ok now you sir made me laugh!
@cleft5
They can easily take full advantage of the new specs while not compromising the experience of the OG PS4 (And vice et versa)
The current PS4 generally runs games well at 1080p @30 FPS. The new one is called the PS4K - and so it will run games at 1080p@60, 1440p+@30, or even 4K for lesser games.
I just don't get why you people don't understand that you DON'T HAVE TO BUY IT. All current games, and all future PS4 games will work on your existing device.
There are no drawbacks.
Now that consoles use a standard architecture, it just makes sense considering it is actually cheaper to upgrade the hardware. In fact the PS3 CPU STILL costs the same or more to make than the PS4's - and that is why we will never see a $100 PS3.
They are never "All" bad. But that doesn't make them good, or make up for their massive problems.
I remember this long YouTube video that basically convinced me the Wii U had to be stronger. The guy pointed out that based on the IBM CPU and AMD GPU architectures they were confirmed to be using - that the Wii U would be stronger if they literally chose the weakest parts from those families of products (This was half a year before it came out).
Then it came out, and it turned out they custom made a CPU a third as strong as their weakest off the shelf parts, half of the ram...
It seems that is exactly what is going to happen. I don't get why Nintendo can't figure out this strategy is doomed to fail every time.
If you are only a little stronger the difference will be negligible when the Playstation has been out for years already (Developers are used to it) and it has a much larger install based already established (More motivation to make it work well).
Nintendo needs to either launch a marginally stronger console within a...
Actually I have seen guys complain about it. But I wouldnt say the issue is they are "stronger than them", the problem is if you make every "Hero" look the same it gets boring and shows a great lack of creativity.
I love all of the disagrees you are getting. I think a lot of people here need to realize that you didn't even initially say anything was wrong with what she is doing.
All you said is that what she is saying is completely expected given her business model, and pandering to her "fans" is common sense.
Not to mention the more powerful PS4K will launch at the same time with a MASSIVE library of games and add-on VR.
Well one of them is 50%+ stronger and has triple the Vram. That wouldn't make any sense either.

I mean it has also been free on PC for like 4 years lol, and EVERY PC can run it.
A "980 Titan"? That does not exist.
I still do not understand why so many people cannot do basic fact checking.
We already had 1080p 60FPS games LAST gen. This gen 1080p should at the very least be the standard.
It's just not that simple. If any of MS' plans were actually plans they would stick to them and not deviate.
But no they are just throwing crap at the wall in an attempt to steal market-share from Sony as usual.
Don't forget the Zune, Windows Phone, and "The First" tablets.
All they can do is leech off of other markets, and ya know what? Sometimes they do it well!
But other times they just waste the consumers time with half-baked products that have zero long-term support.
They are waving a white flag. Plain and simple. Sorry you chose the wrong side fanboys.
You are going to get just that in 2019.
