I guess you guys are right about the resolution. I just rushed and imagined PS4 like a PC to be at 2015. D:

I was one of them. I haven't had any an HD TV until last year lol.Quote:

This. PS4 will almost have a mid-high range GPU in 2013, so it SHOULD have 1080p native resolution. Anything more will be utterly wasteful use of resources that could have gone to physics, AI, lighting, post process etc.Quote:

if any game rocks supersample AA next gen then technically they're running higher than 1080p :snicker
1080p 60fps 4xAA is what i would like to see...it wont happen but i can dream :snicker
it'll prolly be
1080p 30fps 1xAA
I didn't even realize there was already a resolution higher than that. I'm sure the general public has the same mindset. So no. It's be stupid to have that. That's just wasted extra cost that a very small minority would benefit.
All hardware already supports higher resolutions, it doesn't cost a thing.Quote:

It will be a nice thing for something like ps4 GUI and web browsing though.
Oh alright. Thanks for the clarification. I'm not a tech junkie, so when it comes to resolutions and tech specs, and things of that nature, it all goes right over my headQuote:

What I thought this conversation was about, though, was what the targeted 'standard' was going to be for the next gen. Which I believe should firmly remain at 1080p 30-60fps.
I hope PS4 will support a little higher resolution just a little. We most see something specail or different in PS4. P:
Just wanna say, "Welcome back!!" :)Quote:

And the bigger the texture have to be. Therefore you run out of RAM extremely quicklyQuote:

From everything I've seen and read there are just a hand full of TVs with res above 1080 and are crazy expensive ( and ridiculously huge....). A 1080p picture with just a small amount of AA would look quite fantasticQuote:

Than what the PS4 wil have something new? It most have atlease something new and we never seen nor experience. If not than we just keep playing PS3 lol.Quote:

HDTV's only go as high as 1080p. there is no need to waste resources going any higher when the norm is 1080.
the higher the resolution, the less resources the console has to work with (lets put it that way)
for the PS3, this is bad. as its restricted by low RAM
PS4 should have enough RAM to run 1080p with every game.
I think it will stay 1080p .4k tvs are still years a few years away 4kis the next big thing the.japan is starting to make 4k.
The new Spiderman was shot in 4k
Not necessary..Quote:

This is something that many games already use and a lot more will use in next generation.
doesn't one engine support that?Quote:

from my understanding though, texture LOD is identical regardless of distance. which means close up, textures look ugly.
I hope games start to use atleast 2K textures to begin with next gen.
Games like skyrim with 2K textures look so much better than console versions
Current gen consoles' capabilities are limited by hardware. If next-gen is properly executed, they will at least be able to match current gen PCs and have a good amount of eye-candy.Quote:
