    I just had a super long day and could be having a brain malfunction (sitting in my office right now just tired out) but I think ROTTR is the only game to offer those three specifically. I know Nioh offers three modes, all with dynamic resolution (30 fps and high resolutions, 30-45 fps and slightly boosted resolutions, and 60fps with "base" resolutions). Pro and Vanilla all have these options I think but the Pro just gets higher resolutions in each mode. I could be wrong about that.

    Games like inFamous offer unlocked framerate with 1080p vs higher resolution (I think 1800p) downsampling and 30fps. Not sure if you played those or not on your Pro, my man.

    Anyway, I am rambling now and probably off topic. I think my original intent was just to notice that the three labels in The Show pics (in the OP) seem similar to the three labels in ROTTR so I assumed they had the same or similar functions.

    But yeah, for those uninitiated with the Pro, and the upcoming Scorpio/Elite (Whatever they call it), a 4k image, or an 1800p image, or 1440p, or any image rendered internally above 1080p, can/will be downsampled on 1080p displays with the exception of a few games that specifically disabled that feature (like TLOU:Remastered, which still confuses me). Downsampling, for the most part, kind of acts like increased AA as it just cleans up the image, jaggies, just adds a little layer of "shine" and "pop" if you will, for 1080p users.

    I don't know much about HDR, as my BenQ is not an HDR capable monitor, so that aspect is beyond my realm if experience.

      Yeah, I think I'd caution anyone who wants to run out and buy a Pro to wait for impressions from those of us who already own one, regarding exactly what each of these options mean. For example, does "high frame rate" include 60 FPS in out-of-play scenes as well as gameplay?

      I at least know that even the regular PS4 is fully capable of 60 FPS in this game because I've seen that (at times) in the various videos (not streams - those lose too much quality) that we know are on a regular PS4 dev kit. So I don't feel like regular PS4 owners should feel like they're getting a raw deal on this.
      This is definitely one that Digital Foundry will do a breakdown on. Will look forward to that analysis and see which mode they recommend. They recommended the action mode (60 fps) for Nioh and it was, for me personally, the best way to play. Going off my base assumptions I will probably go with the FPS mode in this game unless enhanced visuals plays very smoothly as well

        I'm torn on what I want to do here especially in terms of buying a new TV. Wondering if I should just upgrade to the Pro and call it a day so I can at least get something out of this. lol.

          Next year we will move to a 4K/PS Pro set up for sure. But this year we are staying put.
          You won't have Pro Options. Just run standard with HDR on.

            Can't wait to see some 4K videos rolling in. If you're on the fence on upgrading to the Pro and a 4K HDR TV, and its in your budget...do it. I have a 65" Samsung KS 9000 and with the Pro, It's amazing.

            NBA 2K17, Horizon Zero Dawn, Ratchet and Clank, Infamous Second Son, and Tom Raider are some of the most impressive games graphically on console. You also have Boost Mode to factor in, which helps in all the games I've played.

            You won't be disappointed with these upgrades. Big ups to The Show for making this happen.

              Enhanced Mode is 1440p and will run at the same framerate as a base ps4.

                    A developer said it in the twitch stream. 53:38 mark
                    Enhanced mode is middle ground at 1440p

                      So if I would get a Pro but only have a LED TV, I can still get benefits?

                        Yes. Go back to post 21 for more of an explanation I posted.

                          The 3 options: Visual Enhancements, High Framerate, and 4K are ONLY available on the PS4 Pro.

                          If you have the standard PS4, you don't have these options.

                          HDR will work with any PS4 if your tv supports it.

                          A PS4 Pro 1080p without HDR will still benefit from the 3 options (excluding the 4K obviously)


                          So a 4k non HDR tv will still receive the enhanced visuals minus the hdr.. correct?

                            Seems that frame rate will be the biggest plus for those of us with ps4 pros and 1080p TVs
