- Thread starter bananafactory
- Start date
Nope. This won't be the case, necessarily. It is very much dependent on the game. 60 fps will be on a case-by-case basis.

Preach it
all we need is some ass on a train and we'll be all set for a party in this thread
go view post history

They're probably gonna push performance like they usually on PS4 and then smooth out the framerate and increase the resolution on Neo, that's all
that guy has a history of leaking a ton of accurate shit
I will let someone tell the tale of the great ntkrnl

That poster once gave the playbook for an entire year of ms releases and announcements. He's an English speaking cboat

ntkrnl had the biggest leak probably in the history of GAF.
Literally leaked an entire years worth of the Xbox Division plans, including Forza Horizon 2, Master Chief Collection, Scalebound and multiple others.
Them being in this thread is a MASSIVE deal
All we need is a CBOAT appearance and it truly will be the apocalypse.

Sorry I did read the article I know there are no Neo exclusive games. My terminology was poor, I am concerned about going through a time when we saw devs making PS3, XB360, PS4, Xb1 versions of the same game.
One big advantage consoles had is that it had the same machines across the board and games improved significantly as the gen matured because devs grew so familiar with the machine. That advantage goes away here.

Same here. Some people here are acting like children, if this thing is 399$ its a fucking steal and any real gamer that really cares about performance and has the funds will jump in, and the people that were happy with ps4, you can still enjoy it, just like before you will have some third party games that run like shit, it's just with ps4k you won't have to worry about that cause the main target for developers will be ps4.
Sony points to their 40 million unit install base and asks if EA or Activision wants to leave it.

As a PC player with a 980ti I can't stand shit posts like this. Some people don't fucking care about PC. Get over it.

Hmm... I'm not sure. If they're telling the truth, and it's as slight an upgrade as it is, I would probably just be better off investing in a good desktop(finally) and keeping my ps4 for exclusives. I'll have to wait and see to see if it's both worth it, and if there are deals for trade in.

Which is interesting we have still heard nothing about their next machine. Its really damn impressive how close MS is keeping that to their chest. They either are very early in the R&D of it or have that thing on absolute lockdown internally.

Dude please if you know anything then just leak it. You seem to be untouchable when it comes to leaking stuff, nobody can catch you
Nah, I'm just here to fanboy.
I got really excited by the rumors about an iterative PS4 some time ago and this got my dander up again.

Yup, given that you can get a brand new PS4 for 249 at some times (Germany), a $/199 price tag for the old one - at some point - doesn't sound that implausible anymore. Would hype it on PS2 levels for sure.
Well we did just get that patent reveal not too long ago so I'm sure the rumor mill will be churning pretty soon.

I was going to get another PS4 once they announced some kind of slim so this sounds just as good to me. Big question is, is this official official yet or still just rumor? Oh well E3 isn't too far off, I'm sure if its a real a reveal will happen around that time. Interested to see if they change the design at all.

Look at the difference in the specs between the PS3 and the PS4. Then look at the difference in the specs between the PS4 and "Neo".
There is your answer.

he's new cboat until he gets sacrificed
there's always the possibility that there isn't one however unlikely that may be to some people

Yeah I've been thinking the same thing although these leaks are certainly starting to look more and more like controlled demo gauging. I am of the mind that MS has their machine ready to go but have actually played it close to the vest after the whole xbone disaster and early leaks.
And EA shrugs and says "we'll get back to you".
Or maybe something along the line of "if you want us to put in this mode that ads on another 20 million on our bottom line, you're going to pay for it."
But of course, that's only if they make NEO mode worthwhile. The negative side of me thinks that neo mode is going to be little more than games at 1080p with an uncapped framerate that hits a minimum of 30. If it hits 60, great. But most games will probably hover at an inconstant 45-50, which isn't really helping anyone.

Oh hey I hear you, I don't want you to leak a damn thing here. You've already done more than enough in your time here.
I'm just saying its cool to see you around again
Glad to see you are ok!

Feels like a slap in the face tbh
The more cynical part of me wants to say we haven't heard much about MS' device because they aren't communicating as much with devs.

Then I must have bought a special PS4 2 years ago because I've been using rest mode and it's working great for me.
40 million and growing userbase. You really expect EA to cry so much about a minimal SKU testing effort that they would cut Sony off to any big degree?

Where's Verendus? It's time for him to speak on this. Legend of Dragoon 2 will be getting the 4k treatment. Believe!!
