PC has been doing for years what PS4 Pro and Xbox One X have just barely started doing with 4K HDR gaming.
BOTH Sony AND Microsoft failed to fully deliver on 1080p / 60fps, hell even 1080p / 30fps, before making the jump to 4K HDR. Neither companies never even tried for 1440p / 60fps! 4K HDR for gaming is a joke and has no place in the industry. 4K HDR is best reserved for home cinema. IMO
Until 4K televisions are in majority of households, which will be years from now at the very least. Most of the world still have 1080p HD TVs and are plenty happy with what they have.
I know it bums me out that I can’t select 1080p / 60fps option on my PS4 Pro, instead I’m forced to Super Sample 4K bullshit for my 1080p television! Pisses me TF off!
Don’t even get me started on game file install sizes with 4K assets. What is Quantum Break on Xbox One X install size? 160GB or larger if I remember right. Good luck downloading that game digitally on a DSL or cable modem connection. None of us asked for 100+ GB video game installs! Sony and Microsoft both instead decided to force it.
But as long as you are enjoying your Xbox One X, then I guess all is well.
Staring at my PS4 Pro, I just roll my eyes and sigh every time I crank it up to play a game in 4K HDR 30fps Super Sampled. I’d much rather take the resolution hit and run native 60fps on that silicon! Frame rate always beats resolution and directly affects how a game is played. Resolution is only important to clarity of content, that’s it!
Not an attack on you, @Mite. I’m just pissing on Sony and Microsoft for going full retard and thinking they have what it takes to challenge the PC Master Race by making a home console with all the resolutions and HDRs.
Meanwhile on PC, Nvidia and AMD release new graphics cards twice a year or more! Good luck keeping up with that, Sony and Microsoft.
Nintendo realized that taking on the PC Master Race was a mistake and created the Switch hybrid instead of their own 4K HDR home gaming console. Smart company. ;)
