I don't agree. It seems consoles are slowing down technical progress. When creators neglect console optimization, titles like Crysis and Stalker emerge. Why back Xbox One with such high-end hardware? There must be a reason developers prioritize consoles over PC and graphics innovation.
Support from diehard supporters and exclusive insiders highlights the buzz.
It's worth noting that quality comes with the price, a PS4 Pro is available in a 300USD package, making it quite impressive for that cost. The PS4/PS4 Pro supports VR, and the Pro version runs most games at 1440p or 1800p, with some even reaching 4K.
The PS4 Pro for $300 seems unrealistic. I remember it costs around $500. You could assemble a PC with that budget to run games more smoothly (like a Ryzen 1400 and an RX 570).
I discovered the PS4 Pro costs around $400 and isn't as powerful as the R9 290 (non-x). Its CPU includes many exclusive features, though they aren't as flashy. The 570 model supports 1440p at over 30 FPS on high settings, similar to the PS4 Pro, but it can't reach 4K. It lacks the power for ultra high settings and struggles with very demanding games due to its 8-core AMD Jaguar processor without an L3 cache.
It's quite capable for its price. The PS4 Pro supports 4K on titles like Skyrim Remastered and enhances visuals. It's not fully optimized, but you get what you pay for—similar to your setup. If you have a 5960x and an SSD with 32GB RAM, you'd be in the same boat. The PS4 Pro works seamlessly with games, making it a budget-friendly choice for home entertainment, especially for gaming on a couch. Everyone has different tastes, but preferences vary widely. My parents enjoy the Nintendo Switch and its library.
The explanation lies in the simplicity of optimizing a game for specific hardware. Knowing the details of consoles like Xbox or PS4 helps streamline the process, making it more efficient. They can more easily adapt and distribute content to those platforms due to their established presence, simpler setup, and lower costs.
