PlayStation 4 PRO
Internally designated as "NEO" official name is "PRO"
The gist of it: 1) Faster processor. 2) 4K HDR compatible. 3) $399. 4) 1TB hard drive. 5) November 10th, 2016. PlayStation 4 "Slim" is now the regular PlayStation 4 and will be sold alongside the PRO for $299. http://www.theverge.com/2016/9/7/127...s-release-date EDIT: 6) 5 GHz Wi-Fi compatibility.

PlayStation will fall. Big FU to the loyal PS people that stuck in there. Trying to make console gamers into PC gamers making them upgrade every couple of years. Not going to happen.
Not to mention them jacking up the Plus subscription with shitty indie games. |

I also read somewhere that the next system update will include HDR support across all three systems, so that's not too bad. EDIT: Here's the link. http://www.theverge.com/2016/9/7/128...e-announcement |

Im a little dissapointed that there's a new console out there but I will still wait and see what happens to the games.
The base PS4 is supposed to also get the HDR capability so the only thing missing is "4k" res which is just gonna be > 1080p and not full 4k. Once my next PC build is done it'll leave PS4 Pro in the dust anyway. PC Master race is where its at ![]()

Apparently you only get 4k content via patches.

If you intend to upgrade to a 4K tv in the near future then there's a fair difference, albeit not as big of a difference as going from SD to HD. I have the 1TB PS4 Pro and really like it. I never had the original, so I can't compare speeds. I play on a 1080p tv and the graphics look pretty amazing to me. I just got Bloodborne and Ratchet and Clank. Both games are awesome.

I own the ps4 since its day 1 release, no reason to upgrade to the ps4 pro, I dont think I would even notice the increase in graphics honestly. I rather pay for an entirely new console whenever they make their next gen vs paying another 400 for the same console with some upgrades.

friend has the pro with the VR. The PS VR is so laggy and choppy. frame rate dips. Doesn't even come close to my PC Vive VR.
IMO no point of upgrading. It's not even native 4k and graphics aren't any better. |

I don't know if its just me but I don't find sitting in front of a PC playing enjoyable at all.
Wireless controller, big screen tv, kick back on the bed and play seems more attractive. Hence the PS kicks ass. So im not really getting the PC gamers, am I missing something? |

Unless you spend thousands of dollars on a gaming pc you wont know the true meaning of gaming. PC gaming is also far superior in terms of frame rate and graphics. You have to realize the processing power of a ps4 is comparable to a budget pc from 4-5 years ago. Also most of racing games with the full steering are all hooked up to pcs. Can't achieve that with console gaming. Last edited by R3dliner; 02-01-2017 at 01:39 PM.. |

My feeling is majority of guys sit in front of a bigger computer monitor with highest resolution and key away. Maybe I am wrong. |

Most people can't justify spending 3k+ on a gaming machine compared to a $400 console so they will never realize how vast the differences are but your points do have some merit on your avg gamer |

I thought about grabbing the VR for my "old" PS4 but if it's laggy and choppy on the updated system, it would be a disaster on the old one. No doubt that the PC is the far superior gaming system...but I'm with Wolf 335 on this one...I'm not serious enough of a gamer for that kind of time/money commitment...just rather kick back and have some drinks while playing FIFA and COD with friends on the weekends... |
