4K games will be what size?

4K? xD They should first learn to make 1080p/60FPS as a standard.

oh god between the NX controller and looking like how consoles are adopting the smart phone model i am gonna set my expectations really low for the health of the future of the industry.

Difference between Ultra HD and 4K

Technically, "Ultra High Definition" is actually a derivation of the 4K digital cinema standard. However while your local multiplex shows images in native 4096 x 2160 4K resolution, the new Ultra HD consumer format has a slightly lower resolution of 3840 X 2160.

This is one reason why some brands prefer not to use the 4K label at all, sticking with Ultra HD or UHD instead. However, the numerical shorthand looks likely to stick. As a broad brush label it's so much snappier!

Just because the TV displays at UHD levels doesnt mean that the PS4.5 cant upscale from a resolution somewhere inbetween.

As we were discussing earlier, this would probably release at the end of 2018 or into 2019. 5+ years is not mobile territory, in fact most people were expecting this console cycle to last only 5 years max. If this guarentees that your entire catalogue of games carries forward along with peripherals, I can see this saving money in the long run. Not to mention if there was a good trade in scheme....

If people want to play game with the highest technology they would buy a pc so if there is a ps4.5 then it's the end of Playstation

"Sony is currently planning a new version of the PS4 with increased graphical power and games running at '4K resolution'..."


Aaand its fake.

They main concern here to me is that anyone who buys the PS4.5 wont get the full use of the system for years after release. Well unless it's a Sony game that is and even then I'm not sure. The thing is you'll have to hold back the game because if you make a game to good the rest of the console wont be able to play it. They already do this with PC gaming and the PS4.5 would be in the same boat. The devs would simply ignore all the extra power avalible to them and continue to make games that pretty much look the same.

I dont think it will happen. IMO this is about PS4 Slim with 4k60FPS movies.

Sorry. You are confused.. This is NOT what happends in PC..   Again.. The game you buy would be able to play 1080p or 4k..   PC games do this now.. They can be scaled to play on 720, 1080p, 2k, and 4k..    The games LOOK better as you scale up..    It could easily be the case where once you do the GAME install, it downloads the correct assets..   There is no "holding back power".   The New version would play games at FULL 4k ..  Same game would play JUST fine at 1080 on the original PS4..  Devs wouldn't ignore  4k ..  In most cases devleopers have to DUMB down games to play on the PS4.  Hence why the original Versions they show at E3 etc always LOOK better then what they finally release..     Now they can keep the higher quality versions running smooth on the new system, and then 1080p scalled down ones on the original. 

Also this would be beneficial for a NEWER more capable PS VR to come out in 2 years.. 

Also..  again.. Someone said "Who has 4k"..   By next year pretty much all TV's sold will be 4k.. By 2020 the majority would be.. So it woud make perfect sense if they released this in Late 2017/early 2018..    And again.. No one HAS to upgrade ...  it would be there for those who BOUGHT 4k already..  and they could actually take advantage of it..
