Sony hate thread

I've had a 4K TV since 2017 and I really can't tell the difference at normal sitting distance -- mind you it's a sane human sized 49inch TV not a massive 70inch plus one. But once you get good anti aliasing how much can you really, really tell even with a huge TV?

I buy physical movies and I don't bother buying 4K blu rays because they seem absolutely pointless.
I went from a 1080p plasma (one of the last models) to a top of the range panasonic 55 inch 2022 4k oled, and 100% can tell different in res. If you go for a cheaper 4k model, then not hard to find older 1080p TVs that look better, mean my old Plasma would be better than them.

However, when it comes to HDR, game consoles still can only do HDR not HDR 10+ or DV, and many games still don't know how to correctly use HDR, so no way making the most. LCD and OLED based TV still don't match CRT or even Plasma, when it comes to motion resolution.

Edit: Turns out Xbox does have DV support for streaming and on some level for gaming, so was off on that, but unsure the level of support it has but that is more on devs and licensing fees than the console it's self.

HDR 10+ is not HDR10, different things and XBox does not support HDR 10+. But looks like I was wrong, Xbox does support DV for streaming, it also says it supports Dolby Vision for games, but can't find a list of which are supported, my guess not many because licensing fees are per a game sold or will just be a system wide container, know they did do auto HDR. I knew it had no support for DV on 4k blu rays, which is why I got confused, still weird it supports DV in games and streaming, but not 4k discs.

Stellar Blade coming to Steam next year.

“We’re aiming for a 2025 release,” SHIFT UP said in response to a question about when a PC version of Stellar Blade will release. “Given recent trends like Steam’s growing presence in the AAA games market and the global success of Black Myth: Wukong, we are expecting the PC version to perform even better than the console version.”

NO. FUCKING. GAMES.
 
tbh I was kinda surprised it was a Playstation exclusive at all. Korea is not a console market (partially owing to the fact that most Japshit was outright banned until like 2000), and I don't think one game is going to really tip the scales on that

It's a temporary holiday sale on the one SKU no one wants, the digital only slim. Thanks for posting soyfaced clickbait garbage instead of just saying that.
So, basically just Black Friday? God. Have they ever done a permanent price cut on the PS5? By now the disc console should have been 400 dollars judging by the cost of the PS3 Slim in 2009 and PS4 in 2016 accounting for inflation.

I've always fucking hated the "they're taking a loss on the console" excuse. NO FUCKING SHIT. ALL CONSOLE COMPANIES DO THIS. THEY'VE DONE IT SINCE 5TH GEN AND EARLIER.

All that, and no games to even buy.

If Stellar Blade well and truly does better on PC than on PS5 (which is very likely) I think way more devs are gonna jump ship. There is just no point to buying a PS5 outside of people who are extremely impatient.

No, PS5 price has only gone up and it's already basically 2018 hardware. We're so deep in the gen that console killer PC builds are about to make a comeback if there isn't a price drop soon.
