imagine if Sony releases a PlayStation 4K model which can play your PS4 games in either 1080p 60fps or in 4K 30fps.

It will cost 700$ to be realistic here. All current exclusive will be upated to run with the better performance like Bloodborne or Driveclub and future third party games would adapt it or allready patch their current games. But it would only support higher frame rate and resolutions but not graphics.

So it would be

400$ for PS4

700$ for PS4K

so everyone has the choice

 

Captain obvious here:

From an Engineering point of view: Before launching Xbox 360 it had 256 MB ram. But gearbox requested to add additional 256 MB ram. That cost MS half billion USD. If you are slightly familiar with R & D you will know why its unrealistic.

From R & D point of view: It costs a lot of develop a system. Developers spend billions for this. For a powerful 4K system they need to redesign the whole thing. Lol. Who has time for this?

From Sonys point of view: They are in financial problem. Will they took this risk? Nope.

From consumers point of view: It will be confusing. Last thing Sony wants is confusion.

From developers point of view: Witcher 3 PC version was downgraded because CDPR didnt wanted to "develop" two versions of the same game. PS4K will force develoeprs to abandon PS4.

If you want to play 4K then get a PC. Problem solved. Its easier.
