Native 4K or Checkerboard "uprendered" 4k

But people are always talking about "future proofing". Well that's exactly what scorpio will do in a nut shell. Not saying next gen machines won't be better, but with a 4k system at home, you got those cross gen titles that look good enough you can wait to upgrade. Especially if you're an xbox gamer. It's a pretty huge leap in architecture from 900p games to 4k.

 

Then add in that two + years from now could be the ps5, but two + years from Scorpio could be the next xbox thats more powerful than that. Which is why Xbox is essentially in a great position now, if they don't screw it up.

Futurproofing for what? A console should be relevant for 5/6 years. That's the norm. Thing is, if the Scorpio spends 2 years not selling because it's too expensive what's the point?

Especially when they will release a new system every 3 years or so... Then after the scorpio what happens? They have two choices, release a new model that will improve graphics as much but will again be way too expensive for the general public. Or make the smart decision of releasing a 400$ console that will basically be what the pro is to the PS4.

Anyway, besides the lack of 4K bluray, the PS4 pro is already " furturproofed" enough.

Depends on price. If I would pay $400 for what PS Pro has to offer, why wouldn't I pay $100 more and get native 4k and a 4k player?
