It does make sense you know. A PS4-K for 4K gaming. Obviously not all devs would release 4K textures n stuff.

But ... CAN WE HAVE KEYBOARD MOUSE GAMING SUPPORT FFS!
U can use third party devices for that.

Games need to support it officially with adjustable parameters like smoothness, acceleration etc and removal of auto-aim to feel like a mouse is supposed to. Third party devices emulate analog stick on a mouse which isn't the same as a raw mouse input.

Yes you are right, games should support the mouse keyboard support for consoles but again their is a monopoly and developers won,t go for that. But i would recomm3nd if someone is really keen to go for these options atleast give a try to xim4. As i am personally using it in fps games on ps4 and i feel literally no difference in pc and console gameplay.

Eurogamer sources corroborate PS4.5 rumor

The author (Patrick Klepek) who broke this news at Kotaku is called Scoops for a reason. He's famous for first breaking news on:

- Infinity Ward's troubled relationship with Activision after Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 shipped
- Microsoft's decision to completely reverse course on its heavy criticized DRM policies for Xbox One

I won't be surprised at all if this comes true in some way or so. Don't underestimate scoops.

I guess I'll wait for a better PS4. lol

wtf now EU gamer is confirming it's existence ??


so what do we know about
the rumoured PlayStation 4.5? In the wake of last week's post-GDC outing of the hardware by Kotaku, we have independently established that it's real and that Sony's R&D labs have prototype devices, and we also have more than one source referring to it as PlayStation 4K, the name we'll be using for now. And this is where things become slightly strange - because while more GPU power is being offered to developers, realistically it is nowhere near enough to provide native 4K gaming at the same quality level as current 1080p titles. The full extent of the spec is a current focus of enquiry for us, but realistically, it is simply impossible to cram the equivalent of today's top-end PC graphics hardware into a console-sized, mass-market box.


this thing is real!!

Sony seriously needs to consider about the backlash/alienation of current ps4 owners

The PS4 doesn't support the HDMI 2.0 standard, so, at the very least, there was definitely going to be one that could upscale to 4K. Sony probably thought that, with the arrival of 22nm APUs, there's more space on-die to do a higher-spec PS4 at close to the budget of the launch PS4. I'm expecting a price tag of $500. Will probably do native 4K for indie titles and somewhere between 2K and 4K for AAA ones. Not a bad option for those who have 4K TVs.

And, more importantly, this will help PS VR in doing 1080p per eye @ 60fps for more demanding games.

Remember this from 2015 Sony Might Consider a High Power PS4 2 With Ultra HD Blu-Ray

[h=2]Report: Sony's more powerful PS4 to be announced before PlayStation VR launch[/h][h=3]More details on the rumored 4K-ready 'PlayStation 4.5'[/h]




Sony's more powerful version of the PlayStation 4 — also known as the "PlayStation 4.5" and "PlayStation 4K" — is expected to be announced prior to the launch of PlayStation VR this October, according to a new report from the Wall Street Journal.
The upgraded PS4 will reportedly be able to play 4K resolution content, according to the report, and deliver "a richer gaming environment, including a high-end virtual-reality experience."


The Wall Street Journal's report corroborates previous stories from Kotaku and Eurogamer on Sony's plans to release a new version of the PS4. The Journal also reports that Sony will continue manufacturing the existing PS4 as well as its more powerful successor.
The PS4 cannot currently output 4K content, and its optical drive cannot read 4K Blu-ray discs. However, Sony has signaled that a 4K-capable PS4 is in the works. Masayasu Ito, executive vice president at Sony Computer Entertainment, said in an interview last year that Sony was considering an enhanced PS4 that could support 4K Blu-ray discs. Neil Hunt, Netflix's chief product officer, told Huffington Post UK in January that Sony had "promised" Netflix that a new revision of the PS4 hardware with 4K support was coming. And Netflix told Forbes in February that it expected hardware refreshes this fall from both Sony and Microsoft with 4K video playback for the PS4 and Xbox One, respectively.
There are no indications of a release window or price for the upgraded PS4. The current model of the console sells for $349.99. Sony's virtual reality platform, PlayStation VR, will cost $399, although that does not cover the required PlayStation Camera accessory.

PS4K information (~2x GPU power plus clock increase, new CPU, price, etc)
#1
Related info from a meeting we had yesterday was waiting for it to be approved before posting.

Price is currently $399.99 they were discussing a better CPU which would raise the price to $499.99 we were guaranteed the price will be no higher than $499.99 (He mentioned the CPU upgrade quite a bit almost as if they haven't really decided on a final spec could be a pricing issue.) also there is currently no plan for any type of trade in program for current PS4 users but that could change.

They stated that the GPU is twice as powerful as standard PS4 and much faster. They did not say exactly how fast but that is was running at a higher clock speed while being much smaller than the original.

It will have a 4k blu ray player and will upscale games that are not natively 4k.

Also there was talk of some sort of VR lounge for the media player app which is supposed to be getting a substantial upgrade.

It was stated plainly and with no room for interpretation that there are developers that already have development kits for the PS4K and that they are making games that will directly target and take advantage of the higher specs of the PS4K. It was also stated that these games will in fact work for the PS4 but with considerable sacrifices made to performance.

It was also made very clear that current games would not be getting any type of performance upgrades by being played on the system and any benefits to older games would come via patch per game and per developer. When asked if this was going to happen the response was "Its a possibility but doubtful with the exception of a handful of games."
We were also given a list of games that will be available at launch that will directly take advantage of the PS4K where the differences are and I will quote him "Significant."

For the PSVR

Eve Valkyrie
Robinson
GT Sport

For the PS4K

Deep Down (Thought this was dead)
GOW4 (This was the exact abbreviation on the sheet I can only assume its god of war 4)

There were more games on the list but these are the ones that stood out to me.




That's all I can remember off the top of my head I'll see if I can get any more information.

    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.
