4K is mostly useless outside of PC enthusiasts and very few 4K video sources out there.

This pixel pushing bullshyt this industry is in is dumb as fukk. You guys are literally stuck with boxes that will struggle with 1080P the entire generation...yet talking about 4K televisions. If anything the game probably looks slightly worse than a nice 1080P set from Samsung or Sony.

GTA 5 next gen looks incredible though, I will admit to that.

:wtf:

On avsforums everyone talks about how great upscaled 1080p blu rays look if they knew they'd look that good they wouldn't of sprung for the 4k media player. But someone who's only experience with 4k is at best buy says otherwise :camby: Stick to trolling the power of the cloud

Most people don't have a large enough TV or don't sit close enough to the TV to see the benefits of 4K. It's like those 32 in 1080p sets they had there was no real benefit to having 1080p at that size.

For example with 20/20 vision if one had a 55 inch tv you need to sit 4-6 feet from the screen to benefit from 4K. For common sitting distances you need at least a 70 inch TV for the full benefit.

I was one of those dumbasses that bought a 32 in 1080p set years ago and looking back on it it was a waste of money.

yes I know the theoretical...I'm just saying upscaled 4k isn't going to look worse then 1080p the difference may be difficult to perceive for some or most, but it won't be worse....unless the TV has a sh!t upscaler but i wouldn't know anything about that...

nikkas want to justify their purchases so bad that they lie and make themselves think the shyt looks better. Playing a 1080p game on a 4k tv is not going to make it look that much better, its just a small upscale.

I have a samsung suhd 4K tv, and 1080p games look better upscaled to 4K. The colors are crazy. Upscaling tech is really good now

I never did get Grand Theft Auto for PS4. I had it for PS3.

Is it worth getting...just for the PS4?

that's not everything tho

you can have two 1080p tvs and one looks amazing and the other one shytty. you can get a walmart brand for 299 or some shyt out crutchfield for 40k

there's a lot more factors going into clarity of a tv, than just 1080p vs 4k. for all we know he's seen a shytty 1080p and his 4k is fukking amazing
