By Laboured Go To PostAny suggestion this is a Polaris part?
Makes sense from the timing. Furthermore there were some hints that one of the Polaris 10 chips was running 32 CUs. On the other hand though, Sony was using an APU and are going to use one again. Current AMD APU out is the Carrizo, with Zen, it's next generation APU, probably being introduced early 2017. The Zen architecture was supposed to feature HBM and I don't see this happening for this PS4 refresh.
Back to your question. Timingwise it would be great if it turns out to be some Polaris architecture inside, but I'm uncertain if you can cram any of it onto an "old" APU design without problems. I'm just not well versed enough in this field to tell you if it's possible.
It would piss me off extremely if we get a new APU, CPU and GPU design in the end of 2016 from AMD and PS4.5 would use none of it.
DF reckon 36 CUs.
It's a good upgrade as long as games actually take advantage of it. It's all up to the devs now really.

As someone who's bought a launch console for quite a few gens, this is pretty upsetting. I plan on getting 4K when OLED comes down in a year or so. I would have future proofed my PS4 and bought a more expensive option up front too. One of the big reasons I game on consoles is because I don't have to upgrade hardware every 2-3 years. The first uncharted game hasn't even launched yet and it's already being leaked that a new PS4 is coming. If games start being developed for the PS4.5 and my system struggles to play those games it will be like salt in the wounds. This could all be alleviated with a buyback plan, but nope.
like the old thread said
PC stay winning
I actually like the idea, just poorly executed. Make it an option from the start or something. Instead if someone wants the best possible PS4 experience they would need to spend $800ish

FIFA 16 is up at the EA Acess / Origin Vault. Anyone going to start playing it on the PC? I need people to play against.
By Red Blaster Go To Postmafia 3 looks pretty coolLooking forward to it.

But reilo
By Smokey Go To PostBut reilo?
Like I said numerous times, this thing needs to be $399 and the PS4OG needs to drop to $249-299 for this to work. If they don't do this, then they're dumb.
It's such an increminental upgrade if those so specs are true I just don't get it, like why lol, if this is all for 4K playback seems like a bit much imo
Damn it's true after all? Why though.. Makes no sense for such a small increase.
Also lol at people expecting a trade in deal.

that's such an insignificant jump. you'll notice a few fps spikes, but that's it.
are any games even reaching that 8gb vram?

I really don't give a damn what price they sell the new PS4.5 at. The fact that they're pushing new hardware so fucking fast into a gen is super upsetting. Why adopt early if you're no longer confident the hardware will last?
If software performance becomes splintered half way through a fucking gen for must have games I'm going to be super pissed. I can't even imagine the secondary market for an OGPS4 would be good either. Who wants an old system that won't play games as well as the new one?
What's the difference between this an the master class? I can hook a PC up to my receiver / TV and get controller support. Steam has a healthy environment for purchase and playing games. I guess master class doesn't have Naughty Dog? lol
The more I think about it, the more I feel like this is going to be a mess.
Devs are going to have to spend even more time on a game because people that knowingly buy inferior tech are upset they can't talk shit to PC gamers or something. Time = money so this just cuts into resources and devs have trouble trying to develop for 3 systems as it is.

every news i hear of this is either regular people complaining about it or reports of devs complaining about it
i don't think the higher ups got that folks still look at consoles like appliances, no one buys a new vaccum or a fridge every 2 years
it's gonna be this gen's PSX

so...will it have a 4k bluray decoder or whatever so we can get the new 4k blurays?

My favorite thing about the Mafia 3 trailer was having a lead character not voiced by Troy Baker, Nolan North, Steve Blum, or Yuri Lowenthal. God damn am I sick of hearing the same voice actors getting all the major work.
This is an expensive rabbit hole I've started to climb down. Looking at Nvidia shield console for pc 4k streaming.
See this that shit you just don't do.

lmao.
Honestly, all I care about is if the campaign is decent or not.

Some guy gave American Truck Simulator a negative review on Steam because they were going to charge for the new states after Arizona.

i'd seriously recommend saints row 2-4 over each of the far cry games a dozen times over
By blackace Go To Postanyone played the Far Cry games? Looking for a decent open world type gameyou definitely don't want far cry then

What kind of open world are you looking for?
You can go with boring shit like Shadows of Mordor, Mad Max, Ubisoft games.
Dead Rising 3 wasn't so bad. It's a bit repetitive I guess, but I had fun just creating new weapons and fucking up zombies.
Sleeping Dogs as reilo suggested
MGS V was fun for 20 hours
Just Cause series

Red Dead Redemption is still the GOAT. If you already played it, just play it again with the cheats.

dying light is legit
By blackace Go To Postalready played all SR games…
but open to any suggestions
Sunset Overdrive if you have an Xbox One
Dying Light if you want a good open world game.
By Facism Go To PostKinda hoping it just falls flat on it's arse.Same
I just worry that Sony may have put too many eggs in the PS4K basket. Ideally (for me), it just comes and goes with a whimper, and we keep the current console model.

By P S Y C H Go To PostWait, the release isbplanned before the PSVR??
PSVR is coming out in October right? I can see them announcing a date at E3 that's before October. Releasing a newish console so soon after E3 is pretty cool. If they do I wonder how that might impact PSVR sales. I doubt many people are buying a 400 dollar PS4k and a 400 dollar PSVR.
