Forums - Gaming - New 4K-Capable PS4 And Xbox One Consoles Coming This Year, Predicts Netflix

Porcupine_I on 03 February 2015

All PS4 games in 4K/60FPS confirmed!



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Until 4K TVs or Computer screens are as cheap as regular screens, we won't see any attempt of reaching 4K gaming any time soon. Also, a lot of developers is still strggling to get 1080p 60fps. How bad would the fps part would become if they needed to reach 4K? 30fps-15fps?

On PC people are already gaming from in 4K from 2013 (sure you needed like two Geforce Titans but they did).  The reason why developpers are struggling on consoles is more a problem of how the Xone and PS4 are  kind of average hardware wise.

Edit:  Possible to stream games to your console 4K wise maybe?

REMEMBER THIS? 2011 PS3 4K for static images:

not sure if it is real. The PS4 is not appealing me at all compared to the greatness the PS3 had.
"weakness awaits"



Persona 5 on PS3, I won't need next gen!

I'll buy another one if they upgrade the blu-ray player to play 4K blu-ray.
My isp is finally good enough to consistently playback multiple 480p video streams, 1080p if you don't mind the occasional fall back, streaming 4K lol.

I still haven't seen 4k in the flesh yet, i can only imagine how good it looks :(

If you are not seeing it on a huge screen (80" or larger) compared to a 1080p TV of the same size then it is highly unlikely you would even notice a difference.


May I ask you if YOU haver personally seen 4k in person? I casually go into my local Curry's store where they have 4k TV's showing and it's absolutely jaw dropping. So you're either spreading information you haven't concluded for yourself or need to get your eyes checked.

I have. I have a 46" Samsung 1080p LED TV. I was looking at a 40" Samsung 4k TV and 49" Sony 4k TV in Best Buy, and they do not appear to look any better from about 8 feet away (which is my normal viewing distance). I also wear contacts to get 20/20 vision. My eyes aren't great without contacts, but it doesn't matter since I wear them. Your last line is meant as an insult. Please don't insult me. I am not making fun of anyone. I am stating scientific facts. Maybe you have better than 20/20 vision. Maybe you are viewing 4k TVs that have a large screen size (where I indicated that it would be visable). Maybe you're sitting closer to the TV than I do. There are other variables involved. Please educate yourself before jumping to conclusions and/or insulting others.

I doubt I have better than 20/20 vision. It seems as though everyone here is mixed as some claim no difference but I see it immediately even from a further distance. This just seems all to familiar to the SD vs HD thing..

It smells more as a Netflix wishful thinking in order to justify their investments in 4k. Not that they need it, but they would like it.

Here's me thinking this was old news as we knew before launch the PS4 and Xbox One would support 4k Movies and Photos?

Weird because I can tell an HD stream on a 40" from 10 feet away. It's so painfully obvious.
