Why do we need SS for 1080p? I mean is cool and gives you a better image quality but is a waste, and they are forcing it! I hope they do 1080p/60fps with better graphics and better AA that would really be sweet, is too early for 4k. My PC can do some last gen games at 4k and they do look amazing but the hit in FPS is just not worth it.

It's just an easy benefit they can offer 1080p TV owners. Most titles already have a higher native render mode anyway, so there's not much work involved in expanding that into a super-sampled mode for those without 4k TVs. There are games with varying types of higher frame-rate options too, and they're also available on 1080p TVs. We won't see 1080p/60fps as a standard though, the Pro's CPU simply isn't strong enough to facilitate major frame-rate jumps in most instances. Sony arguably didn't have a choice on that front, at least not with their price target.
