I wrote a little review after 7 hours with my Pro, it is a post down from this one in the blog.

Basically, after pouring in many many many more hours, my thoughts are pretty much the same as they are in my original "Bottom Line," which is as follows:

At 1080p SDR have I noticed huge gains across the board with the PRO? NO. I have not.

Do I feel this is a necessary upgrade for everyone at 1080p?
Nope, I sure don't.

Do

Hi. My name is Jared and I have been a big time supporter of the PS4 Pro (or NEO, as it was known back in the summer) basically ever since the first info leaked.

I was able to pick up my system last night from Gamestop at 10pm MTN time, along with Dishonored 2 (which I have not had a chance to even play yet! Ahhh!!!!)

I have posted numerous impressions in the PS4 discussion thread and I figured I would kind of wrangle everything together in a single post regarding my...

If someone sends you a heartfelt attempt to reach out to you in any way shape or form, whether it is is to reconcile, or just say hi, or check in, whatever, and you refuse to even acknowledge receiving that communication attempt, that's harsh as hell.

Thing is, I am guilty of this. I have done this to people in the past, so I guess what I am experiencing now is just karma and "what is going around, coming around" or whatever the old saying is.

Thing is, you...

I should be banned from OS

I have posted on OS over 10,700 times and none of those posts made this site any better or contributed anything meaningful to the community.

I have tried and failed to make friends and join circles on OS. Now, after repeatedly falling short of becoming a valuable member of any corner of this site I have to face reality and accept that I am just a weird person who isn't ever going to be popular in life and will probably spend most of my life entirely alone. There are worse things...

The Politics of "Likes." Is OS a Popularity Contest?

There is something I have thought about for awhile now. It probably crosses my mind way too much, and to be dead honest, it is definitely ridiculous that I let this bother me at all, let alone as much as it actually does.

So, again, full disclosure: I am dumb for caring about this. Fully admit it.

That being said, as time goes on I can't help but notice trends, post to post, on OS and I feel like there are patterns as far which posts get likes and which posts don't....
