Brilliant. I've been waiting for my local chippy to do their chips for £1 instead of £1.30 but they blame Brexit and Potato prices, so I've been starving for months now.

That's a contradiction, it's not native 4K when it's using checkerboard, checkerboard is an upscaling method, in this case to get 4K.


You can't go by Youtube videos, all Youtube videos are compressed, that's why Digital Foundry sometimes release the uncompressed versions of their videos.

It's not all just about FPS and resolution either, there are other graphical enhancements for Pro games, the same sort of stuff you would expect a choice of on PC, but in this case it's in the developers hands what's on or off.

You really need to see it up close and personal to make a true comparison, whether that's 1080p vs 1080p or vs 4K, if you still feel the same then that's cool.

I agree, you'd have to look for the extra detail in Horizon Zero Dawn for example rather than it being stand out obvious, there's a comparison or comparison videos between 1080P and 4K for Horizon Zero Dawn on YouTube.

I'm getting close to biting, think I'll wait until its sub £300 though...

Was thinking of getting one of these with a 15% eBay code recently, ended up buying something else, then a 1440p 165hz screen with a 1080Ti.

Much bigger outlay i know, but well at least high frame rates are not a problem :stuck_out_tongue:

For 4K its really good, thats the point of the device. Horizon is 4K native(checkerboard rendering) and HDR enabled.

It's a personal choice. The next gen will blow these away of course. The main thing is to play/experience the game itself. Always.

Well my missus concurs, she gave him the name 'cyclops dwarf' the first time he served us in store which is a bit harsh as he is harmless enough but it's also very funny :smile:

Ive got a 4K TV and realistically I am not sure the upgrade is worth it even if you have a 4K TV..

For the minimal difference on the PS4 Pro.. It aint worth the money.

lol/ Nope! He sounds oddly strange though!

Yeah I like to stick PS4 on any chance the mrs isnt around.
Seems a very confusing market with TV's at the moment.
Oled and the new led and 4k etc.
Think I may waot another 12 months and see of its all sorted otself out. Alot of new tech thats being tweeked (Oled) and old tech being sold as new with clever marketing (Quantom Dot)
With 4K not being the norm and nvidea and HDR battling it out.. prob best to wait for the dust to settle!

It is hard though as my tech head is craving the next big tecno purchase

Interesting... some testing to be done before I consider flogging the standard then. Thanks! :smiley:

Well I didn't NEED it ... But bought it regardless. I too have a good friend on the inside.. £308! Awesome.

Switch and BOTW and PS4 both up for sale now. Should easily pay for this.

Cheers OP>

Well life's not fair but you have to make the most of it :smiley:

Yeah they do :smile: I'm not a particularly happy bunny about my Xbone though, the controllers are sat there without a console at the minute. I had to send it off to MS repairs in Frankfurt yesterday as it totally bricked last week.

MS customer service is even worse than Sony, I dread to think how long it will be without the thing. In fact that reminds me to check if UPS have actually collected the package from the shop collection point I had to drop it off at last night.

Just noticed the controllers - they look so small against the tv, ha ha
:sunglasses:

Cool!!

I'm more than happy with my old PS4 for the time being and even if I wasn't I wouldn't as we've spent enough recently :smile:



It must be said John Lewis Waitrose do look after their partners to be honest, we got this Bravia 65XE9005 in a specia; partner extravaganza for 1700 quid a couple of weeks ago

Have 1080p 51inch Samsung Plasma.
Keep swinging back and fourth between either uograding to PS4 Pro or getting a new 4K Oled or Samsung Quantom Dot TV.

But they both sort of go hand in hand.
May wait until PS5 and upgrade both then. Save me around 2k-4k.

Hard seeing all the new TV's (as my 51inch seems alot smaller) than it used to, so tempted to go 65 or 75(if price comes down) but prob wrong time to buy and is PS4 Pro, really that much difference to a PS4?

Awesome. If I were you I'd get it now with the game. ..... sounds a great deal for you...

Well yeah my missus works for Waitrose so I got a partner's partner card that gets me 12% off electricals and 25% off everything else in John Lewis :wink:

How have you managed to get one for £308; - do you have a special discount to get it at £308?

If you have PS Plus the games should save to PSN so you could simply log into another PS4 load up the game and continue playing.....

Again. ... assuming game save was uploaded in the first place. ....

I already have two standard PS4's for downstairs and in the bedroom so it's hard to justify it until I go 4k.

Sony PlayStation 4 Pro 1TB repackaged

Got mine new off eBay for 275£ just gotta wait for it now

I've had an lg 4K set for a year now.. recently bit the bullet and brought the ps4 pro from the GameStop Ireland deal.. as prices haven't moved. Couldn't be bothered to wait any longer. Just been delivered by DPD and transferring data from my standard mint ps4. After which will be going on sale. Cant wait to play on the pro

Obviously, comedy isn't your strong trait.

Best game to bundle.

At 1080p it's up to you but supersampling in Horizon is a tiny improvement as the game uses txaa at 1080p which is already flawless almost 100% of the time.supersampling hits 100

Getting a gold HDMI cable will make it look even better, too. You can rly tell the difference, honest.*

*Justification for wasting money on a PS4 Pro klaxon alert!

How many Pro owners have a 1080p tv?
