So, I want to change my PS4 to another one, but I don't know if change it to a Slim or a NEO. I want a better console, only if I can benefit from the purchase. If you guys tell me that I would not be enjoying the power of the NEO because my TV set, then I'll wait to the ps4 to bite the dust (soon, by the sound of it) and buy a Slim.

Again, thank you (at the people who really help)

edit: Its old, I know. But I have to choose between the TV or a new PS4

edit 2: I have that (old) TV at my new house 3 days ago, I have recently moved and I haven't play any games in a while. I had this (new) tv but is in another city

edit 3: Not a tech savvy going through a break up. She has the Smart TV

VERDICT: BUY A NEW TV.

 

[MXRider]

Buy a new TV first.

 

[Proelite]

I highly recommend this following Toshiba TV if you're thinking about getting the new consoles. It has the added feature of an included VCR player.

 

[RoboPlato]

Get a 1080p TV at the very least

 

[UnluckyKate]

you need a new tv.

but don't buy before we get full spec and policies on PS4 neo

 

[Elitist1945]

 

[Bad_Boy]

 

[Elios83]

With this TV you're not benefiting of the current PS4 you already have......

 

[thegreatchamp]

The TV cant even handle your current PS4.

 

[ClayKavalier]

Hard to say since we don't know specifics about either system, but presumably you'll get some benefit since some games will likely add effects or have better textures or whatever along with resolution increases.

Personally if I was you I'd skip both consoles and upgrade your TV instead.

 

[Simply Sami]

Is this a troll?

 

[Inuhanyou]

It belongs in a museum. That TV is more appropriate for 360 and PS3. If you bought the slim, you'd already get gains on it from downsampling down from 1080p, even though it would be identical to your current set up

 

[Rellik]

I need to see how PS4 games look on that beast.

 

[Matt]

Technically speaking yes, but a new tv would be a much better first investment.

That's probably not entirely true, I haven't experienced it but I'm sure that Uncharted 4 looks way better than 3 even at 768p, for example. I used my 360 with an SD set for the first year or so I had it and games like Gears still looked great, even if they looked even more impressive after I got an HD set.

Regardless you'd still benefit more from the PlayStation you have and a modern TV than you would from a new console OP.

 

[Ushay]

Holy shit, that thing is hideous. Can it handle Scorpio and Neo you say? Bwahahahahahahaha!

It is true though.

Uncharted 4 looks better in 1080p. Unless you are arguing that?

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Buy a 3DS or a Vita?

 

[family_guy]

I'm a firm believer that your console shouldn't cost more than your TV.

 

[Justified]

lol trolling unless you take a pic of your TV with a shoe next to it

 

[Jrs3000]

You'd benefit more just to get a xb1s. Everything will be native no upscaling required.

 

[ClayKavalier]

TV, no question. Not like you'll be able to play any unique games by upgrading your PS4.

You have a current console and a TV that was outdated years ago, how are you even debating this?

 

[Scuba Steve]

Well, I mean, that TV is overkill for the current Xbox One.

 

[finalflame]

Get a new TV before you purchase anything else non-essential in life.

[Byakuya769]

It is true though.

Uncharted 4 looks better in 1080p. Unless you are arguing that?

Who said it didn't?

 

[benny_a]

It is true though.

Uncharted 4 looks better in 1080p. Unless you are arguing that?

The point is that Uncharted 4 isn't just Uncharted 3 with a higher resolution.

It's Uncharted with better animations, better lighting, more geometrical complexity, better effects etc.

 

[Rellik]

Just saw your edit. Get a new TV.

 

[GuyKazama]

With a new TV, you're going to see a massive improvement. You won't get that improvement with your current set and an upgraded console -- you probably wouldn't even notice a change.

Not a debate... not at all, l'm looking for advice.

Yup. I think the Neo is a little more unclear but presumably Scorpio will allow for a lot of improvements you won't need a 4K (or even 1080p) TV to appreciate.

But OP, get a new TV.

I wasn't saying you're arguing or anything, just surprised you're looking for advice when one thing is clearly much more out of date than the other.

 

[Purest 78]

I'd get a new TV actually enjoy 1080p ps4 games 1st.

 

[Silkworm]

You just need to upgrade with a free abandoned TV like Solid SOAP ;-)

Well the above poster said its not true that he's not benefiting from his current PS4. Then goes on to say he'd benefit. So which one is it?

Going from 720p to 1080p is a big upgrade.

 

[westman]

You won't benefit from higher resolutions than 1080p, but chances are that both Neo and Scorpio will provide some improvements for 1080p TVs as well, and you would benefit from those. It could be a higher or more stable framerate, being able to do away with rendering in sub-native resolution, better draw distance, improved effects, etc.

Hmmm I see. So, I guess the right move is to buy a new TV, I didn't have any issues with my old TV (The one that my ex owns now). Maybe that same tv is more cheap right now.

 

[Noobcraft]

The TV is the bottleneck in your setup. Going for a Neo or Scorpio would be wasteful outside of maybe running games at a higher framerate if devs go that way.
