This joke doesn't even make any sense. Sony isn't going to remotely disable the existing 40 million PS4's overnight and force you to spend $500 on a new system.
You don't know what developers tools are out there to make this happen. Obviously, it's happening and no devs have come out bitching about it. There's a ton of people in this thread and the Xbox thread who would love to upgrade.
Older iPads aren't the same as Older PS4s, this is completely different.
Zoetis's post is quoted like... a few above yours.
Will be the same box.
I meant real evidence ;..
4k wont be 60 fps for sure.But 1080p 60fps as standard for sure.mmmm...The highest end gaming PC's can't do 4k at 60fps in modern games. My $1400 PC can't do high end 4k.
What are they planning to do to make the PS4 handle 4k with only an incremental upgrade?

"It's turbo time!"Playstation 4 Turbo.
What happened to Verendus, Didn't see him here for a long time
We're mostly the shiny toy demographic. It's like going to a MTG grand prix and doing a survey of who like Magic. Your sample skews your results.
If they just had it as a OS level thing where they just add more GPU processing units to the pool doing the work and it raises frame rates and resolution with no work then maybe it'll work but I don't think it'd be that easy and I suspect some fool engine dev did crazy insane things for better performance that will break when something fundamental changes.
Playstation 4 Turbo.
Not sure if people are going to enjoy this evolution of the typical console generation. There are a variety of problems that will be introduced by doing this, and while there are some clear benefits, it's really tough to say if the good will outweigh the bad.
I'll resist making a gloating pro-pc comment (that platform certainly has its own fair share of issues), but I'd really like to.
Well, now the hardware wars between Sony and Microsoft's upgrades begins.
I doubt Verendus would touch this one with a 10ft poll.
I'm ok with this if the only purpose of the PS4K is to play games in 4K and help drive the VR. As long as it doesnt ruin my own experience with the PS4 I currently have.
I have to laugh at the "Im going PC only posts"
like you dont really need to think about upgrading GPU around every 4 years to keep up with current releases there...
If you don't believe message board posts from those who'd have some information and Patrick's excellent track record (and developers talking at GDC) then you're going to have to wait until E3 for your tangible proof.

Same, will just stick to PC.i am fucking done buying consoles if this is the direction they're going in.

Okay. Thanks for stopping by to enlighten me with your condescending attitude.
I'm just speaking loosely and candidly on a forum full of nerds, as if I'm shit-talking amongst friends. It's not like I would actually voice my concerns to an official representative this way.
And let me guess. You think I'm an entitled gamer because I don't like the idea of Sony splitting up the installbase and treating their fans like beta-testers, thanking them for being early adopters while asking them for another $500. I'm just another asshole asking for a handout, right?
People make their investments in consoles because of their stability and reliability. You trust it's going to be supported as a primary platform for many years, it's a significant part of the appeal in the first place. Otherwise everyone would just be PC gamers, which is far from the truth.
If this was a legitimate PS4.5 I'd be upset. If it's just an upgrade that allows a normal PS4 to play 4K video content and typical stuff like a bigger stock hard drive, then I think that's just fine.
