So do menus and things outside of games look better too on 1080p TVs? I could swear the UI and boxart in Netflix looks more crisp.

Tbh I thought so to just trying it now.
Yup played it the other day and it was definitely suffering from frame rate issues. Can't Sony just use the 1 employee or whatever Cerny said it takes to put a game on the pro and make it run better?

Hi there. Just back from work and unpacked a PS4 Pro I got today. Powered it on ad all I'm getting is 3 beeps ... and nothing else.
Is it bricked? DOA?

Be sure it's not the framepacing playing you. BB can be really jarry if you come from a 60fps game because of the framepacing until you get used to it.
Just boot and go.

Yikes. Try reinstalling the firmware? Or take it right back to the store.
Tomb Raider has specific options for 1080P. Titanfall has none, it will just super sample down to 1080P.
Agreed. Stunning game.
What's actually better though, the 1080p max details or downsampling.
Sure you get some improved settings on the 1080p enhanced mode......but supersampling is clean as fuck!

Is it patched ? Honestly, I couldn't tell. Any screenshots?

How is the Pro mode for Dishonored 2? Planning on getting it tomorrow.

Anyone have info on Deus Exs internal resolution and PRO upgrades? I want to know before I start playing.
It's possible that it was Pro enhanced as shipped or with the day one patch, but that was late September so I didn't think it was the case and there hasn't been a patch since. There's nothing in the game options that suggests it is, load times are as absurdly long as ever, and aliasing is still pretty obvious on the title screen, load screens, and during gameplay.
So I'm still waiting on a patch until I hear otherwise.

It's faster, I guess it doesn't make sense for DF to report that.

So glad to hear it! I was just asking about it in this thread. Hard to find any news about it.

I feel the same way. The game is not running smoothly, but it has been 6 months since I have played it.

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
I hope so. I left a comment with DF's new video asking if they can test Bloodborne. If it's running fine I can get it out of my head but if it's tested as running slower then Sony should be obligated to fix at least that; it's one of the PS4's killer apps.

Because Sony shows to hook it up to a router
. I wish I knew!! Took me 11 hours for 500gb. Uuuugg. But playing BF1 made it all worth it
I don't know if it's been patched. I was hoping for 60fps replays and highlights

I'm going crazy playing the final fantasy 15 judgement demo on the pro. It looks so damn good. Their skins look real man.
Ps4 pro purchase validated. Can't wait for full game.
Also anyone who is interested in Uncharted 4 on pro should definitely give it a go. I have not played Uncharted 4 for about 3 months and it's like I'm playing a totally different game.

Yo did EA actually release a patch for FIFA17 for Pro?
Framerate is nice and high, feels like 60 but can't be sure it definitely is.
I don't know if it's doing any downsampling or if there are any other visual effects over the regular version though.
It does look very clean.

I have a 1080p TV as well and my suggestion is to ask yourself:
How much you value image quality and what games you are playing?
If your a fan of BF1, then Pro is basically a must since it makes the framerate ridiculously better. In most other games IQ gets a noticeable bump and in some titles (Hitman, Infamous), you get a framerate bump along with some visual upgrades.
Hell, probably the game that really made me happy for the purchase was the FFXV demo, which looks great on Pro.
Edit: Format and remember to deactivate it as your primary console.

Its worth the price difference when selling your old PS4 and paying just the difference, yes. You are going to get at least 3 years of the improved games and not to mention the HDD upgrade. Unless money is super tight, hell yes.
Make sure you deactivate, then delete your users. Also do a restore preferences. I just deleted my games one by one, took no time at all. And of course save your saves to a usb.
Awesome, thanks a lot guys. I'm mostly interested in the upgrade for FF XV. I also do value image quality a lot of plan on getting a 4K TV down the road.
Decision made, thanks
Edit: Did Driveclub get a boost too ?

FFXV's boost is pretty good (the hair especially!). The demo has a few performance issues with the downsampled mode but I'm pretty confident they'll clear those up by launch given that they've managed to make the OG PS4 version run so solidly.
Edit: Also, the games I've played with the best IQ by far are UC4 and Ratchet and Clank. But the former just looks unreal.
It realy is outstanding in 4K. They did fantastic job with Pro version.
Lawd it is taking the pro a hell of a long time to install U4 from the disc. I booted it up and I got greeted with a please wait 30 minutes. So i turned it off and tried it again after work and it didn't install while in rest mode. Finally got through and the disc is still spinning and making a ton of sounds.

So what is the ideal 2TB drive for the PS4 Pro? I'd like to bookmark a page for future reference.
Think most are going for the Firecuda 2.5"

I know this is the dumbest question ever, but how does the power button on the front work? I'm holding my finger on it, and it's not turning off.
Is something different than the OG PS4?

i believe so yes.
That reminds me i must try some disks in my pro to make sure the drive works.

They're pretty terrible buttons to be fair. Worst part of the Pro's design for me.

Yes. This got me too, I shit myself. You have to physically press it like a button until you hear a click. I actually prefer this though.
Edit: Jeez I was months late!

Game looks far clearer for me. Maybe it's just the PS4 upscaling that's better than my TV's if it's not patched.
Was hard to take screenshots as most came out blurred.
