Sony possibly (we won't find out until the release) made a mistake. You are telling the fanbase that they could use the OG ps4 for the device but the specs are weak ass shyt. 399 plus 399 for the new system 700 dollars for a VR system when Xbox Scorpio is coming out with legit next Gen and VR as well.

48 million OG PS4s>>>>>> 4 or 5 million Neo's by the end of year

If any fan base is going to be mad it may be me and everyone buying the Neo. Because it might not be that great of difference. Sony would be stupid to cater to Neo over OG

You're a moron.

$399+$399= $700?

Where'd you go to school? :mjlol:

Why do people keep saying that? Sony already put out a mandate on PSVR on the OG PS4. This was said before the Neo was even known to the public. Ur game won't be approved if it do run superb

I understand all that...but they expect developers to make a game that works on both systems @ 60 minimum, but also include a "version" that runs better for the PS4K at the same time because exclusive games for the new system isn't allowed? Mind you developers are about sales...questions that need to be asked are, will the initial install base for PSVR be large enough for developers to put in the extra work?

Man they are putting a lot on this VR shyt. Sony better hopes this shyt don't flop. I'll still continue to believe they should have waited and dropped VR for the PS5

devs loving this tho.

It's no different than TLOU going from 30fps PS3 to 60 fps PS4.

These devs were already making games for 5 platforms that were so much different than each other. Now each platform this gen is pretty much running similar shyt. So hell yea Sony expects devs to run games better with stronger hardware ontop of making sure the OG is running top notch

Somethings got to give.

For VR you'll need a totally unwavering 60fps.

How many games currently run at that level on PS4.

Just a couple as far as I know. They are gonna have make some massive cuts in order to get these games running on PS4.

Ain't y'all saying PSVR games look like dogshyt? The PSVR games I saw look better than PS3 but not as good as PS4. Every game ported from PS3 like TR, TLOU, Uncharted etc... run 60fps on PS4 easy. So I see this as no issue

But that is what they are doing. You are possibly seeing a percentage jump like Xbox one to S but they are expecting people to just buy the NEO because of a little frame and consistent 1080 P while the competitor will be offering much more at 4K.

shyt is just dumb to be honest. Cater to a new fan base and ignore and punish your 40 million users

No, those games have drops in framerate.

Depending on how complicated they are PSVR games on ps4 are gonna have to look like PS3 games or worse.

Breh the best experience will be PC point blank period. Then Sony doing the little trick as well. Packaging old ass games like Drive Club as a VR purchase

I played every last one of those games and ain't notice any significant drop off. And besides those games I mentioned are some of the most beautiful games graphics wise ever. So other games with not as much detail should have no problems at all. I have yet to hear from a credible source or any impression that PSVR games frame rates are awful. The only complaints I hear are the games are not great or graphics are mediocre

"no framerate drops are allowed... ever!" is a pretty harsh requirement. these games also need to render 2 unique images (one for each eye)

on the Vive, when the framerate drops below 90, it drops the framerate to 45, and reprojection kicks in. this usually causes some noticeable ghosting. you can turn reprojection off, but then if the framerate drops shyt gets stuttery, and possibly nauseating

most of the leaks about the Neo have mentioned it helping with VR. my guess is games will aim for that 60fps with 120fps reprojection for the PS4, while the Neo versions will actually hit 90 or 120 fps
