Phil Spencer - "Why do you care about 60fps?"

60 fps is a bit of an unrealistic expectation from XOX and PS4 Pro. The CPU is what is holding most games back from 60 fps, and XOX and PS4 Pro are already $500 and $400 respectively. If MS/Sony had put better CPU's in them, we'd probably be looking at $500 and $600 boxes, and then we'd basically have next gen consoles instead of a mid-gen refresh.

That being said, 1080p 60 fps modes could very well happen for certain games on XOX, MS has said the choice is left up to devs, and 60 fps is more possible at 1080p than it is at 4K. So if you want 60 fps, it's time to beg your favorite developers for a 1080p 60 fps mode for their games.

Yep. The tech is already there. Next gen the mid gen refresh consoles should run at 60fps, for 4k but thats in another six years.
