Forums - Gaming - Is the PS4 the best of both worlds now? (PC & Consoles)

Kinda hard to say.......

But what of if I want 4k BR movie playback? Doesn't that make the XB1 the best console? Last I checked, its the only device at its price point with its capabilities that can do that.

Just imagine All the awesome blockbuster movies coming this year in full 4k disc playback not that horrible streaming compression. Or maxing out your data caps downloading HD movies.

I mean not really... it doesn't have a mouse and keyboard, free online, upgradability, as well as the many features of a desktop operating system such as those of Windows 10.

how? the question was which has the best of both not wethever you prefer pc

But it hasn't the best of PC. It has more of what PC offers as PS3 or 360 had but PS4 PRO and Scorpio will still lack a lot of what PC players love (if it comes to specific games, a lot of different options for graphic settings, mods or whatever)

Well you get options with many games like Nioh and you get better performance if you wan it with the PS4 Pro. It just does it in a console-way by automaticlay choosing the settings for the player, isnt that the best of both worlds, like Ease of Use too?



No.

I mean unless you are skint. But if you have no money then pc worth playing games on was never an option.
For me it's 4k / 60fps.
PS4 pro can't do that properly for meaty games apart from. Re7 but even that isn't the real deal, still extremely impressive and preferred platform for me for that game but....

It's obvious though really unless you are the kind of person that lies to themselves



Yes. And ps5 will be even more so.

Who says it has to have every features espacially mouse and keyboard are in contrast to controllers. Upgradability is the PS4 Pro now. Whats so great about Windows 10? Last time i checked most PC gamers hate it.

I am pretty sure 4K BluRay will be playable via an Update at this point

No it's not the best of both worlds.

It's a false equivalence anyway.

Is living in a cemetery like being dead?. No.

Thats a weird comparison



Not for me tho, specs aside because all I care is games...
PC doesnt have Bloodborne, Uncharted, Nioh and Last of Us.
PS4 doesnt have, I dunno, a bunch of mobas I guess? Steam? Wow? I havent played the last wow expansion, is it any good? Warchiefs started amazing but ended being terribly underwhelming. Burning Crusade is still the best imo.
