This is interesting from Engadget:

'He's not exaggerating here either. In a demo this week, he pulled up a scene in Days Gone on two separate Pros and 4K televisions, one of them natively rendered and the other checkerboard upscaled. The images were nearly indistinguishable: The native game was slightly more saturated and the textures in the grass were clearly resolved while the checkerboard grass shimmered slightly in the breeze. However, from three or four feet away, it was nigh impossible to see a difference.'

Well of course Cerny is going to toute such rhetoric. He want's to sell more devices, so he will grab as many straws as he can and run with it.

There is a difference between 4k and Checkerboard, but the difference really depends on your own eyesight, the display and of course, the developers.. It's a stop gap measure, not a replacement for true 4k.

 

 

 

What are you talking about? That it Engadget saying that not Cerny and as much as you'd really not like it to be true, I'm affraid it is. There is even less of a difference between checkerboard 4K and native 4K than there is between 900p and 1080p. Flops mean nothing to your average gamer.
