If it isn't 4k and at least 60hz, then no.

 


Why would you need a 4k TV when all current consoles only support 1080P at best? We are talking specifically about gaming here.

Do you not think any of the next gen consoles will even dabble in the 4k gaming zone? I do, and even if the next consoles release 5 or 6 years after PS4 or Xbone that's only 3 or 4 years away.

*EDIT* Note that I am NOT by any means saying 4k will be the standard, but they systems will support 4K,and there will be a handful of them.

 

Maybe some indie games. I vaguely remember the specs of the PS4 and Xbox 1 stating 4k would only be possible natively for images and blu-ray, not gaming. I could be wrong on this. Also, current games have a hard enough time processing 1080P, let alone 4k(2160P if you want to get technical).

I personally do NOT see it happening this gen other than in independent games that lack the visual prowess of AAA games. If at all.

And what about PS5 and XBtwo? Should be releasing around 2018 or 2019.
