OOOO. I'm thinking I should cancel my Destiny bundle but not digging the half Silver black combo.

Gran Tursimo Sport bundle console

I think a pro GT sport theme bundle would have been awesome. I do like the GT sport themed console but I love the pro version of the PS4 better.

Another wired only controller I have zero interest in.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

How is that "new"? That controller has been out a long time already.

I believe they're calling it a "2", with new customized features compared to the original model.

I thought you had UHD ODogg? Wondering why wired is of zero interest?

I do have UHD. Wired doesn't work when you have pets and people walking around your play area and sit 8-10 feet away. If I was single I'd consider it.

"Wired" and 2017 and beyond don't belong together, IMHO.

Unless science can make our eye sight evolve in the future, I couldn't disagree more. Especially in UHD with smaller TVs and monitors. In order to get the full effect of 4K and tell the difference from 1080p, you have to sit close. The smaller your TV/monitor, the closer you need to be which makes wired work.

What are we even discussing anymore? I'm talking about a wired controller and you're talking about my TV.

I've said this before, but you can't throw these visuals at me and say that they apply to me, because they don't. It might be a general guideline because hey we all need them, but these are just useless for me.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Not only that but unless I'm sitting literally a foot away from my TV my wife, company or one of our four animals could still run/walk in front of me and f*** my stuff up. In regards to the corded controller I mean.

Corded controllers really are for people who are single or sit at a computer or a desk, not for people in a living room environment. I know, I know, breakaway controllers, yada yada yada but guess what, I had one of those once and it didn't breakaway correctly and it took my 360 right to the ground.

No thanks, I'll stick with wireless.

With the technology we have now there is really no excuse for creating corded only controllers anyways IMO. Logitech and other PC makers have corded esports type peripherals which can also be used wireless so there's no reason that couldn't be the case for consoles as well.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

There should be both options.

I'd buy a hardwired Elite controller the second one went on sale. Until then, I'll stick to using my wired 360 controller.

They both have a time and a place. For PC wired is king, for console wireless is better for most people due to how far away they are sitting.

Edit: As to the controller in that video, it's not "wired only". It's a detachable USB-C.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Forgive my laziness for not looking further back in this thread, but I'm considering upgrading to the Pro from my launch PS4. I have one of the last Panny Plasma's 1080p that is 3 years old. Considering trading in the console at Gamestop (I know, but they have the best trade in value).

This really worth it for not having 4K HDR? Hoping to get some info from some peeps on here that are still running a 1080p TV.

I have a Samsung 1080p plasma.

It really depends on the games. It ran so much better for The Show and The Last Guardian. Uncharted looked better but I was already wowed, and Rocket League definitely ran smoother in parts (you can even tell in the menu alone) I'm not convinced that Remote Play with Vita is any better, though. I seem to lose connection more often than I did with my original PS4. It's supposed to have 1080p for PC Remote Play.

I still think it's worth it, but it definitely was a steep price at the same time. I never turned in my original, though I'm thinking that I should, but I still use it time-to-time since it is in my bedroom and the Pro is in the living room.

Games that take advantage of the framerate will definitely make this thing better, or if they get rid of some jaggies. Can't wait to play Tomb Raider on it. Still peeved they never gave Ratchet & Clank a 60 FPS option, even though I hear the 4K + HDR looks beautiful on it.

If you're really uncertain, do what I did and buy one to test it out, and return it if you don't want it.
