Can we talk about how Microsoft scammed Xbots into buying Xbox One S for HDR? (Caught a tiny L)

I disagree but I see the logic in what you're saying there. We just have to give it time at this point and see how it plays out. Right now, my bet is that when the Scorpio drops it's going to crush the buildings. (REPEAT - If at the right price).
Sidenote: Im not a huge fan of PC gaming. I like it, but I'm not an enthusiast. Its too expensive of a hobby and I prefer the experience of a traditional console. I use my computer for audio recording and video editing, not for serious gaming.
For me the PS4 Neo and PC is perfect. I use my PC for everything including gaming. PS4 has actual exclusives and shyt that I can't get on PC. Then you got games like FFXV which is coming out in NOV with Neo mode. that alone is a big deal for me. I can't get that on PC. The games on Xbox I care about are coming out(Gears, Halo) to Windows 10. Scorpio isn't going to do anything my PC can't do right now. I don't care about it having "6TF". I can get an actual video card right now and play 4K games they got coming out right now... now. Plus you're forgetting that people are already 3/4 years deep into the ecosystem. People aren't going to drop that like that unless it's for a new gen. Nobody is going to get rid of their PS4 or PS4 Neo next year for a scorpio. That will be HIGHLY unlikely. Especially with games like God of War, Naughty Dog's games and w/e else they got. At best someone will cop it on the side.

So Sony just announced that HDR will be coming to EVERY PS4 next week via a firmware update.

Meanwhile Microsoft touted HDR HDR HDR and that shyt was only available for the Xbox One S.

What type of shyt is that? :laff:


Xbots hold this L
Its worth it because they have a UHD player to play the 1 UHD dvd they get for christmas this year :mjlol:

You my dude but you acting up.
PS4 already supports 10 bit color.
The HDR update will allow it to utilize HDR content via games.

let me ask you this, does the Xbox One S not support HDR via 1080P or less on games?

This is exactly the same, the PS4 games that will support HDR will work just like how they work on XB1 on a 4K TV.

You can use a regular PS4 on a 4K TV and get HDR benefits. My statement stands. Calm down. :ufdup:
Question about that HDR though. Does this firmware update mean i gotta switch between my game setting and HDR for 1 fukking game that utilizes HDR or can i leave the shyt on HDR while i play ps4 because to be honest, the hdr setting aint that hot right now for the UI.

I guess turning it off for games that don't support HDR would be straight.
I heard HDR on some tvs have some sort of lag but i'm not sure. I'd say play with it to see what u like.

People are really upset over this outside of the arcadium. I've seen it all over my timeline on facebook and other sites.
You're my e-homie 100%, I just think you're doing a little too much damage control posting for Sony right now, but it's no big deal to me personally. :manny:
In the arcadium, stans on both sides are continually salivating for a talking point no matter how minuscule they can use to crap on the "other team".
Lack of a 4K blu ray is a huge L to me. Heck, the blu ray was a huge reason I was excited for the PS3 when it came out. It just doesn't make sense to me considering sony has a strangle hold on blu ray. Why would they omit that from such a great performing platform?
Sony hasn't lost, and at the moment the PS4 is still my console of choice if I absolutely had to pick one or none at all, but they didn't really make MS' job all that hard with this announcement of the PS4Pro. The way I see it, the gamers are winning. Competition is making these companies shift gears and advance their platforms faster than we've seen before. As a game, I'm kind of excited about all of this.

I would but the last time I was over you moved my stuff around. :umad:

Sony isn't dropping another console for another 5 years. You wont have the option to play a single 4K blu Ray until Sony wakes up and drops the PS5. I'll have plenty of time to build a 4K collection. Already got the 4K tv. :manny:When Scorpio drops I'll start building the collection.

No its not competing with Scorpio... this console is pretty much for the 'hardcore gamers' who want to play PS4 titles at a higher resolution (HDR).

Simply put .. 1080p is the new 720p 'HD' compared to HDR
