I can't tell the difference between 4k and 1080p while watching a movie on a 40 inch screen from about 6 feet away. Maybe that's just me, and perhaps there are some people out there who can because they own much larger TVs but is the difference really dramatic?

Is it worth buying an entirely new console only 4 years into the generation just for a minor graphical upgrade?

I don't get this Scorpio and Neo nonsense.

For some people, yeah! Folks who've invested in a 4K TV or just desire a stable 60fps/1080p with high-end graphics will surely benefit from a mid-gen upgrade.

For others it won't be worth the money. Personally, I'm not interested at all. I'm actually getting less interested in the PlayStation and Xbox ecosystems by the day.

But for those who value the best and brightest console graphics - and who have the disposable income - it makes sense.

To each his/her own.

I'm sure they'll be advantages other than just 4k, in fact I'm sure many developers will opt to drop 4k so they can have better graphical effects over resolution.

But yes while 4k can be a huge improvement it can also be almost unnoticeable depending on screen size and viewing distance.

I wouldn't recommend getting a 4k TV that isn't at least 55 inches big, unless you will be sitting unusually close.

If you have to ask then the answer is no.

You don't have to do anything. There is nothing wrong with 1080p and 4K isn't gonna make you feel your game is a generation apart from 1080p.

The amount of people who don't know what frame rate is and think the awful 30 fps standard we have now is ok is scary.

I know what frame-rate is, target 60fps~ on my PC, and still think 30fps is okay when i have a controller.

Fight me brah

No surprised. 60fps on PC might as well be 12 fps on consoles :P

I will be ready for you to fight your 30fps in Rocket League on PC against my 144fps.

i can't stand hovering around 54-60 FPS.  So, yeah, I'd lock it at 30FPS too.  Unless it's a fighting game...  Which doesn't give any other option than 60FPS, because it's not an option. 

With that said, it depends on the person, as far as upgrading goes.  When I had games going from 60-54 FPS, I thought, "Why would anyone be okay with framerate instability?"

No, it must be smooth.  Either 60, or 30.  Better not drop a frame.

I've said multi-plats, I'll just get the PC version.  But, I may change that stance, because it makes an impact on streaming.  So, when Tekken 7 comes to consoles, I may get it for both, and I may upgrade my PS4.  Don't know at the moment, though.

Gee, I dunno... does a minor graphical / performance upgrade warrant dropping $200+ on a new GPU for your PC?  Same argument.

If it doesn't interest you then don't buy it?

I don't understand the problem.

For people like me, who don't own either one, it becomes another option. That's good.
