1080p 60fps is all I've been asking for.  With all that memory the games will be HUGE too and multitasking.  Boot up time and load times will be non-existent almost I feel like.

They made a Gran Turismo 4K demo a while back. I wonder why...... 0.0

Indeed at 5fps

Since 4k is nearly 12 * 720p which most games on ps3 can't run 720p @ 30fps.

My guess is the ps4 would need to be 20 * as powerful as the ps3 to output 4K @ 30 fps



....for movies and other video, not games.

Read the article. For now 4K for video only. Devs are free to use what resolution/framerate they want, however no one will sacrifice IQ/fps for 4K. We might see few small PSN titles down the road in 4K.

I'd be fine with some indie games and movies in 4k, though^^



I can see a Super Stardust 4k soon or Rayman 4k.
