Discs are absolutely holding gaming back, but the console still needs to support 4K UHD Blu-rays as that's the next logical point for 4K video.

Gaming, I think, should transition to flash memory carts. Of course that would cause all flash memory like SSDs to spike insanely high...but it would also mean we wouldn't need to install physical games any more, and dramatically improve loading times.

As for the PS4 Pro 2.0, I absolutely think Sony is alr...

Two words: Project Scorpio.

BELIEVE!

I HIGHLY doubt that Cyberpunk 2077 will release in 2017. CDPR has already delivered a roadmap on the upcoming projects

Yeah, no. Just no. ...

Huh, how did this get approved when it's literally sourced from this article? Why isn't this considered a duplicate?

If Project Scorpio is able to hit native 4K and true 4K at 60FPS, it'll need to tap AMD's new hardware, including Vega and Zen. Polaris won't be strong enough to hit native 4K.

So...if this is true, it absolutely will be more than $399. Microsoft has already said that the console will be priced at a premium.

That being said, I disagree with Pachter. I think a lot of us do. He's not very succinct, and honestly I don't see how he still ...

I think this only applies to PS4 games running in regular 1080p without any upgrades or enhancements.

If the PS4 game has upgrades, like Mass Effect Andromeda, it should utilize the full GPU when playing even on a 1080p HDTV.

Sony needs to clarify this imo.

Pachter is an idiot imo. Sony is trying to usher in the new age of 4K gaming. Sure it's too soon, I think, but it's the next logical stepping stone for console gaming.

And when I say 4K, I really mean "4K", to the point where backward compatibility for old PS4 games are literally holding back the PS4 Pro.

Mark Cerny stated that the reason they went with the Jaguar CPU is to enable seamless compatibility with existing and older PS4 games....

Love this game! I'm currently trying to beat Dracula in the Western release, Castlevania Dracula X. Of course I'm playing it on Wii U with save states, so...I'm kind of cheating :P

I was able to replicate this, can confirm it works.

In terms of its Polaris-grade GPU, it IS revolutionary insofar as it'll be the most powerful console to date, and offers a tremendous push towards true "next-gen" console gaming.

Compared to older GPU tech, Polaris is a big game-changer in itself. But console-makers have to make some concessions and scale it back for compatibility's sake.

Polaris might not be a huge game-changer for PCs, but it's pretty big for consoles...and I think...

I think VR games would be well-served with anthology-style chapters rather than long, drawn-out experiences.

Sony has said that the majority of PSVR games should be "passive, smaller experiences" and it actually makes a lot of sense.

I'm just worried about the content getting too stale after a while. Imo VR belongs in arcades rather than in homes.

Seeing as the PS4 Slim uses SATA 3.0, I would expect the PS4 Pro to use it :P

Aren't the NES Mini controllers tiny, or is it just the console? I can't imagine playing a game like Castlevania or any tough NES games with a too-small controller.

It's a weird mix, right? 4K is definitely the next step for console gaming, so they'd be foolish not to play around with it. But at the same time, 1080p 60FPS would be awesome, even 1440p 60FPS.

But giving devs the opportunity to experiment is more fortuitous than setting a hard mandate. Sure it'll be weird, but devs will learn SO MUCH from this process.

That being said, I'm hoping for more 1080p 60FPS, but that's only because I don...

Photos don't exist because Project Scorpio's hardware hasn't been released yet. At best they have a devbox that simulates the console's hardware, ie like every other console in gaming history.

I think I might be the only person who hates Shingen. I dislike having mini loading screens over everything I do now, and I don't like all the power options when I'm turning it off, nor do I enjoy the new color scheme for screenshots and notifications.

I absolutely disagree with this. Sticking a 6 TFLOP GPU with a Jaguar CPU would defeat the entire purpose of the Scorpio.

There are still going to "generations", but they will be iterative cycles instead of brand new gens that reset everything that came before it. That doesn't mean Sony and Microsoft won't stick in new hardware you'd expect from a traditional generation cycle: all it means is that they will refresh consoles a lot sooner, and that all o...
