Clarifying resolutions above 4k? So you exoect them to explain to eveeyone that they are using something called checkerboard upscaling or uprendering to arrive at a 4k frame buffer?

The information is out there for all to see. Anyone that wants to know what exactly is going on can clearly see what kinda techniques or methods they are using. 

Its not upscaling, and it's not native 4k. A tech company has used or employee custom tech to and a custom technique to arrive at a set resolution. 

But let's make this fair, can you point out one XB1 game box that at the back of it they said 900p instead of 1080p? And what's funny is that the PS4pro actually ends up with a 4k frame buffer.... you know what nvm. No point. 

Well the way Sony is marketing the PS4 Pro now has them believing its actually doing 4K, which isn't really the case.

I don't think its necessary to say on a X1 box when a game is sub-1080p because MS isn't marketing 1080p. Meanwhile 4K is a huge part of PS4 Pro's marketing.

Quantum Break was natively 720p but used that temporal tech that created a 1080p image. It certainly looks better than just doing 720p, but its still not native 1080p. If MS pushed that as a 1080p game though, that would certainly be an issue which is why they didn't do that.

Anyhow, I'm just saying Sony's marketing seems purposely misleading and people do believe its rendering 4K natively in all the games advertised. Its not really a debate, this is fact.

apparently the scorpio won't do native 4k so the pspro certainly won't

Well they seem to be pushing native 4K, but we'll see about that.

Its certainly possible a game like Forza 7 will push 4K/60 fps. I expect that game to get a heavy push for the Scorpio launch.

30 is OK by me for a single player experience. If ME Andromeda multiplayer is like ME3 multiplayer then 30fps for that will be OK too, but if they bring in competitive MP then they might need to tweak multiplayer for it to be 60fps.

But kinda disappointing for the extra power in the Pro to give no clear fps benefit (though perhaps a stable 30fps vs some fps dips for PS4) with all that extra power. Just another confirmation that there is no good reason for me to upgrade to pro with only having a 1080pTV.

i guess they will for forza like you say 4k/60 it is what people will expect now

it always sounds like developers/publishers want 30fps stable and looking good over pushing for the full 4k whack

this will defo be the case for the pro but who knows if the scorpio can pull it off in more games.the games will be looking good whatever but the scorpio will be winning the fanboy graphic war when it arrives

Mass Effect is my most anticipated game.

I do not care that it is 30FPS. Its not a twitch-finger shooter.

Still dont know what platform I will get it on, but I doubt it'll even be in 60FPS on the Scorpio.
