In even bigger news they are increasing cloud storage from 10gb to 100gb.

Which is awesome news, i should never run out now when with 10GB i almost certainly would have.

by RealGunner Wed 30 Jan 2019, 23:06

Think it's because they are killing a lot of ps3 and vita storage. Rightfully so.

Some big games though in feb.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Wed 30 Jan 2019, 23:09

Hitman is legit fantastic, i still not get round to the 2nd one but anyone that hasn't played it should try it out.

For Honor was really fun when it first come out but they ruined it by allowing people to buy gear with real money and peer to peer servers.

No idea if that changed, so yeah agreed a very good month if you haven't played those games.

I think I brought up this question before, but do you think we won't get a PS5 this year considering they're skipping E3? Waiting until end of 2020 seems a bit meh. Want the PS5 this year ffs. Still need to buy a 4K TV before then, looking at how cheap they've become Proud

Correct, it will be 2020.

Not sure why you want it now though, we still have Ghost of Tsushima, Death Stranding, Cyberpunk and TLOU in terms of big AAA stuff to come before PS5.

It would be silly to release it now.

by RealGunner Thu 31 Jan 2019, 18:44

2020 or 2021.

Think TLOU might be the last AAA game on ps4. Will obviously be remastered for PS5 though.

by M99 Thu 31 Jan 2019, 18:46

It will be a disgrace if PS5 is not backward compatible. No excuses for Sony.

There was a leak a while ago that suggested it should be.

Honestly i don't think remasters are acceptable anymore unless you are talking collection type things.

by RealGunner Thu 31 Jan 2019, 19:21

yea agreed. Remakes are fine of very old games but remastered shouldn't be milked.

Yeah stuff like the new Resi 2 remake is welcomed but ports of PS4 or PS3 games ? nah lol.

lads

I'm getting a 4K TV this week and 90% sure I'm gonna get a Pro too, will I actually notice a difference for those of you that have one over the vanilla PS4? I should just watch a YT video I guess.

by M99 Mon 11 Feb 2019, 23:53

I do notice differences. Nothing game changing but they are certainly noticeable. Also vanilla PS4 will actually look worse on a 4K than on your 1080p TV.

Kind of depends on size of your TV i suppose.

I had a pretty small TV, so the difference for me was really drastic.

Also it depends on the game, for example Assassins Creed looked like a ps3 game in comparison on my old TV.

by Thimmy Tue 12 Feb 2019, 00:43

I have a 65" 4k TV and I thought the difference was drastic. It mostly depends on the game, from what I can tell. All games look better on a 4k TV +PS4 Pro, to some extent, but the real difference can be found in games that are designed for 4k. For what it matters, I spent about 1700-1800 quid on my current TV, so I did expect a substantial level of difference from my 7 year old 52" Plasma.

by Firenze Tue 12 Feb 2019, 02:38

I have a 32 inch atm and I was planning on getting a 40 inch Samsung 4K, now the reason for this is that due to the nature of my gaming setup, I don't sit that far away from my screen, I'd get a much larger 4K TV for the PS4 if I were playing in a living room or something.

I don't really want to go above 40 inches but I might if I'm not gonna notice much of a diff unless I get a much larger tv

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue 12 Feb 2019, 03:17

40 inch will be fine, it's what i have.

by Kaladin Tue 12 Feb 2019, 03:28

Why are you getting a pro now?

by Firenze Tue 12 Feb 2019, 04:04

I honestly don't even want a Pro Laughing

but if I'm upgrading to 4K I may as well, I guess. Imagine we're looking at 18 months or so until PS5 min too.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue 12 Feb 2019, 12:56

Depending how much you play between now and PS5 it's probably still worth it tbh.

by Firenze Tue 12 Feb 2019, 13:25

yeah tbf I did a little more reading around today and most said it's arguably not that worth getting a PS Pro period. Watched a few of the tech videos too.

M99 got me shook about a vanilla PS4 looking worse on a 4K TV though smh

think I'm gonna hold off, especially since the Pro is still 350 quid, could get a Switch or something and a game for that. Will keep my Vanilla PS4.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue 12 Feb 2019, 13:36

I got the pro first so i have no idea if what M99 says is true lol.

You'll have to get a TV eventually anyway so no reason why you can't see how it goes and if it truly is horrible go from there.

If you think you can deal with it until end of next year then yeah probably best to wait.

by Firenze Tue 12 Feb 2019, 18:06

aye, that's the thing, the TV is a long term thing anyway

I saw plenty of ppl using the vanilla PS4 on 4K TV's and no issues apparently, M99 fear mongering ffs

by RealGunner Tue 12 Feb 2019, 18:37

Which TV?

Its true lol, same way how 480p on a HD TV looks worse than 480p on a SD TV. But you're good, most games nowadays upscale the 1080p and it looks fine.
