Exactly, and with Sony now allowing some of their biggest PS4 games to be playable on PC with PSNow I imagine its only a matter of time before they will allow their games to be played native and such things as full-on exclusives will be gone. It is about time gaming came out of the dark ages of such anti-consumer practices.

Sony's exclusives are only as good as they are, because they are made to sell consoles. Same goes for Nintendo. If you want to know how quality drops once a console maker stops making games exclusive just look at Microsoft. Gears 5 is MTX ridden. Forza is the Madden of racing games. The last Halo didn't even have Master Chief in it, and it also had MTX in multiplayer. 

4K/30 on the Pro is tantamount to 1440/60 on a PC, so IMO all Sony really needs to do is give people the option of lowering the resolution to up the FPS. Hopefully that's a feature on PS5 where you can choose between 4K/60 and 8K/30. And if that kind of resolution/frames isn't possible on PS5, then they can release a Pro model in 2023 that can handle it. 

Personally, I'd love for Sony to just produce a $100 "Playstation Player" disc tray that allowed you to play your PS games on PC. That way you could have physical games, and the ability to run them how you want, without any oppressive PC style DRM attached. It really would be the best of both worlds. 

P.S. Your views on exclusives being anti-consumer are in the extreme minority. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=239874&page=1

I think even on PS5 4k60fps would be unlikely. But sure offer the option to FullHD, 1440p and 4k as res, texture level and some other easy to distingish options and the system shall show you the FPS that the game will hold and you can accept or tweak a little more.

I would always look for the best IQ I can have on 4k30fps.
