Forums - Sony - PS4 Pro Digital Foundry [Exceded Expectations]

It's specs are out there.  For $400 it's super value and an easy entry point for the mass market to embrace 4k gaming.  High prices were always the detergent but not any more thanks to the Pro. 

Exactly. Because of Sony's clever use of tech, developers can realise 4K with a lot less overheads and because it's built into the GPU there isn't any extra strain on the system. This is just brilliant from Sony and clearly the reason DF are very impressed with the Pro. I'm getting jeolous ...

Haha I can't wait to write on your wall and tell you how good it is!  :P 

 

If money is an issue you can always sell on your current ps4 for around $200 and get the Pro.

There are excellent benefits for a 1080p TV.  Personally I'm going to stick with that for now and either get a 4k TV in the January sales or wait another year for that.  I want the really high end 4k TV'S but I want them to go sub $1000 first. 

 

Edit: 

You'll still get a really good 4k for a lot less though.  Especially in January or a year from now.

Look, I'm trying to make myself feel better by adding unecessary costs. Leave it be!

You know you'll succumb in the end though!

I just can't. Money is the problem, not enthusiasm.

OP - Do you work for Fox News? Why have you edited out any negative or neutral parts from the original eurogamer article? It's a very well-written piece, as is typical of eurogamer, which provides a balanced view in its entirety (with a reasonable degree of scepticism).



the more i look into it, the more it doesnt seem worth it to me really over regular ps4

Even after all that glowing praise? But if it's not for you, it's not for you.
