Support NeoGAF

Without getting into possibly NDA-breaking details, yes, the PS4Pro GPU does have a bunch of additions that are targeted at VR. It's likely enough to allow base PS4 quality graphics in VR.

wow...tks for the insight.

Thing is, at this point it wouldn't surprise me to see a PS4 Pro S in 2018-2019 -- especially with all the restrictions on base PS4s still needing to be supported and equal frame rates across MP. Because, why not? It's a model manufacturers clearly would prefer to move to and if they can release one final upgrade -- e.g. a Pro Slim with specs higher than the Pro but a smaller size, too, then they'd love that. Of course they say there will be only a single generation upgrade but of course they're going to say that, even if they actually plan otherwise. Because both Sony and MS would love to release a new upgrade every 2-3 years -- devs won't but of course Sony want that iterative annual upgrade money that commoditized smartphones get. So if they're aiming for another 7-8 cycle, and they at least want the option for a sort of 'Pro S' or 'Pro Plus' then 2016 is pretty much as late as they can go (same if they switch from a 7 year cycle to a 6 year cycle).
