that detail, I might have to drop 5 hundred on a Pro :sadcam:

Is the Pro even worth it though?

This is the sequel to my favorite game of all time, I have to play it right :wow:
A pro is $400 and if you don't have a 4K tv don't bother getting a pro until you have one.

500 in canada :mjcry:

And is 4K only worth it if you have a certain size?
Screen size Viewing distance range for 4K Ultra HD TVs
40" 3.3-5.0 feet
43" 3.6-5.4 feet
50" 4.2-6.3 feet
55" 4.6-6.9 feet
60" 5.0-7.5 feet
65" 5.4-8.1 feet
70" 5.8-8.75 feet
75" 6.3-9.4 feet
80" 6.7-10.0 feet
85" 7.1-10.6 feet

This is the viewing distance according to CrutchField.
You brought up a heated topic of debate when it comes to 4K.
You'll see people argue that 4K is 4K no matter the brand, or the size of the TV.
The hard data shows that the size of the screen absolutely matters, and if you've ever done a side by side comparison of different brands/tvs you'll see that not all TVs are created equal.
Some have better image quality than others. It creates an even more complicated argument when you throw in video games; Which game looks better on which TV? Native or Checkerboard 4K? HDR or No HDR?
I would say, save up a decent amount of cash. Enough to get a Samsung or LG 4K TV at least 50" with HDR.
Otherwise, stay with a 1080p set until you have the money. These things aren't necessarily cheap, but the holidays are coming up so you might be able to catch a few decent sales.
Also, the price of these TVs has been going down fairly quickly, so don't feel like you have to jump and get one right away.

Just understand that the resolution improvements the PS4Pro (and the XB1X) offer, can only be seen on a 4K TV and depending on your viewing distance, you can have a 4K TV and still not even see the difference, so you have to make sure you get one the right size to fit your viewing space.

They haven't even shown gameplay yet.

This is fall 2019 at the earliest.

Naughty dog is 1 team and they've lost 2 of their most senior game directors in the last 2 years in henning and now straley.


Uncharted 4 came out in 2016 and lost legacy just came out.


They aren't completing the last of us 2 in 2 years. That's not feasible.

they have 2 teams fam. work had already begun on this game for a couple of years now.

No they don't.


They tried the 2 team thing for a short while during the uncharted 3/tlou cycle and they didn't like it and went back to 1 team. They've spoken on this several times.

didn't know they went back. my bad. :hubie:

But they've been working on this game for a couple of years though. Might be 1 team, but not the entire team.

Every studio has a small pocket of people that are always prototyping future projects but it's a very small amount of people and it's just them basically kicking the tires on shyt. They same way they briefly played with the idea of a new jak and Daxter.

Full production on tlou didn't begin until this year.
