1080p standard needs to stop.

someone made a collage of all of the promises made before the PS4 came out, that it would compete graphically with current gaming PCs, for me it was a real eye-opener. People's expectations are too high now. Just think of the current generation as a half a step better than the last. Anyway if graphics are really that important you should just build a rig

The ads that came out slightly before release and during release while still going on today have painted this gen as "1080p 60fps" "high definition gaming". I've seen enough ads on the net or tv to see that marketing divisions from each system (besides Nintendo who doesn't seem to bother with the res/fps wars) like to point out that when they can run a game at both they will certainly make note if it one way or another with their advertisements. Things were no different during the time of Sega vs Nintendo and the bit wars, only this time we're seeing games getting locked to 30 or some can't do full 1080 and get stuck at 900 or less.

I also really don't get folks who rage against 60fps and claim it doesn't matter and yet there are people who actually have legit issues with slower frames like motion issues. For me I don't mind playing the odd one or two games at 30 but I do prefer 60fps because it feels a lot more fluid and generally allows me to play well, 30 to me seems like a form of slow motion and can at times appear janky, then of course you have games that go sub 30 and then you're just fucked but if you get sub 60 you're at least going to land somewhere near 30-60 rather than sub 30. Also I've less than 1080 appears to be quite blurry for me but I guess that makes me some elitist master race scum according to some on here, that's the thing, when you can obtain something others cannot or don't bother with then you're scum or it's a waste of time or isn't needed, yet when they can obtain it it suddenly makes the world of difference and does matter.
