The difference is that they would need to make a game for a Console 4.5x weaker and it need to run nice on that console,  they would not have time or aim for the Scorpio so the Resolution and the Frame Rate would be the only things that would change. Like the Neo, the thing can be different for the Neo if the focus is just 1080p 60fps and not 4K.

Random PC game minimum vs. medium vs. maximum settings.

Just that those settings will likely be set by default.

Let's say Frostbyte Engine games run at 720p medium on Xbone and 900p medium on PS4, which is more or less the case. PS4 Neo could run at 1080p high and Scorpio either at ultra settings or at high with slightly higher resolution.

It's not about exclusives. It would even be the exact same version of a game.

yes it can, but they expect it to not be so great, since you would need 120fps and 1080p to have a good experience, and ps4 can only do that for graphics a lot lower than we have been used to.

The difference will not be big because developers still need to support the original PS4 and Xbox One, I think that not even for Exclusives the power of the Scorpio will be used since Microsoft said that all their games will launch on the normal Xbox One.

I thought those were rumors that were debunked by the guys at Sony. Though, if it was true, then that would imply that'd you would need a Neo to have a good experience with VR, and.. that would be pretty terrible.

Depends on if you want to play 4k gaming. At the moment the Neo's specs will struggle running 4k/30 frames while the Scorpio will definitely run 4k/30 atleast. The Neo will have outsell the cheaper X1S which will be the cheapest 4k player on the market.

This thread is exactly what i would expect now that the shoe is on the other foot. When fans were pixel counting the difference between 1080p vs 900p and now pixels dont matter because MS new machine will be pushing 4x the pixels as the Neo. Truth is the only boasting were those claiming how good 1080p was.

Trying to justify this matter is funny. 1080p is soooo last gen, 1080p hurts my eyes, its too blurry.. sound familiar? ;)

No they wouldn't. They make one version of the game, which is a lead platform, typically the PC, then they scale it downwards for less powerfull platforms like the Playstation 4 and Xbox One.

Neo and Scorpio, will take advantage of higher graphics that have already been made for the PC version.

Pretty much every Frostbite powered game is Medium/high equivalent PC settings at 720P/900P on console, there is a pretty big graphics difference when compared to a PC's full 1080P, 60fps, ultra settings.

There are a few limitation's to Sony's approach to VR, that makes it less than ideal.
For starters it's resolution is low, it's not much of a problem on a TV watching it from several meters away, but these things will only be a few inches away from the eyes.
It's framerate is also only 60fps, they will then create a fake frame between every real frame to fake 120fps (They are advertising this as "Reprojection". - It's similar to the "motion" tech in many TV's, it comes with some other caveats too, It's simply inferior to a native 90fps solution or even 120fps.

Neo in theory could completely solve those issues.

They would have a very small marketshare if they done it.

I don't think that you will need to purchase the Neo to have a decent experience with VR, Sony is letting people test VR with the normal PS4, if VR was so bad on the normal PS4 people would talk about it.
