As long as there were no issues that took me out of the experience, I could enjoy it on VHS, DVD, Blu Ray, or 4K. I've even watched some "bootleg" films that like there was Vaseline on the lens. Clearer is better but not as important as it's been made out to be. I have both mid gen upgrades and sometimes I struggle to see the improvements on my 4K TV. I know they're there but when I play on the base consoles, I don't care at all. I just want to play the game. Somewhere along the way, I fell for the resolution con. It was never that serious outside of forum bragging rights. |
Perhaps it's because I'm getting older yet last night ST Insurrection was on tv and I'm thinking that looks damn great on my 4K tv, while the source is 1080i mpeg2 (cable) or perhaps even 720p. I'm glad I didn't start rebuying my movie collection in 4K as I'm mostly watching Netflix (1080p) nowadays and happy with it.
I also still game far more on my old 1080p tv than on the 4K tv. I do see the difference when I switch my pro to the 4K tv, yet while I'm playing I don't bother to move over when the tv becomes available. Plus video capture works better on the 1080p tv as the downgrade from wide color HDR makes it all look rather over saturated with weird contrast. However there's still improved loading times, more storage space and improved performance especially with psvr, so not a waste at all.
Actually I usually have Voyager on, on the 4K tv, SD pillar boxed, while playing GT Sport on the pro on my old 1080p tv. Can't be bothered to switch it around.
