or

Nah, Microsoft has so much money, they can afford to lose money per console just to throw eggs on Sony face. Plus, if it's an upgraded S, it can already play 4K blu-rays, giving it the edge over the Pro.

It probably won't do true 4K, but it will be native to what is considered 4K right now which is something like 3xxx X 2xxx

Be honest, do you actually own any 4k Bluray?

>MS is going to sell me an actual 4K gaming machine for 399$

This is exactly what I mean

4k bluray is more than just "4k movies on bluray"
4k bluray is the new spec of bluray disk that supports more storage and faster speeds over old bluray

for instance, 4k bluray supports 100gb tri-layer and 128gb quad-layer disks compared to the 25gb single and 50gb dual-layer maximum of old bluray...

you know how games like uncharted and halo have shipped where you had to download 18gb+ of day one content because they dont ship with the multiplayer on disk? its because weve already reached the storage limits on bluray.

4k bluray could alleviate this so that games can be shipped without those shitty day one content downloads or mutliple disks

It literally costs cents to allow for 4K movie playback, Sony really dropped the ball on this one and no amount of damage control is going to make up for it. Now fuck off back to NeoFAG.

Who the hell said anything about movies?

So let me get this straight

Scorpio is going to ship games on discs that the original Xbone can't support?

DELETE THIS OP

M-MY 4K MOVIE BOX WASN'T WORTHLESS

What the fuck else would you be talking about with the upscaling comment, numbskull? Get the fuck out of my board.

[NYGGERED]

The PS4 pro plays games in 2K and upscales them, retard.

You didn't actually think it played 4k games for 400$, when 4K GPU's cost over 400?

I do actually. When I bought my TV, it came with a player and three movies. One of them is just a demo disc and the other one is a nature documentary, but damn does it look great. I also stream 4K videos, but man it takes up data and the quality does suffer based on my connection(that's what happens when you live in Alaska). I do have advertised 1gbps internet, but I'd still rather prefer the physical thing.

>Upscaling?
>What upscaling?

Consolefags in a nutshell

theoretical, but devs could put multiplayer or online only content on the last two layers so that original bones can play single player, then download the rest optionally when going online

or devs could put the lower quality xbone version of assets on the first two layers then the scorpio data on the last two

or they can even ship two skus, a dual disk sku that will be forward compatible and a single disk sku that wont be back compat with the original model... kinda like some of those old PS2 games that had a version on cd and a version on dvd for some reason.

Well apparently after some googling both the launch PS4 and Xbone support UHD triple layer, just not quad layer, and definitely not playing 4K movies from them because ????

So it looks like it's a moot point anyways

the spec wasnt licensed until just last year, there are just standard triple layer blurays (BDXL)... they arent 4k blurays though, they have a much much slower data rate than 4k blurays

4k blurays are readable at 128mbps for the 100gb variant, the fastest BDXL and readable at 72mbps... BD-R XL (the writable version of BDXL) is recordable at 144mbps and readable at 72mpbs

Bluray triple layer. Not UHD discs, which is oddly enough separate from 3 layer Bluray

Yes, disc and file formats have gone off the fucking wall which is why most people stream

>Apple going full retard
>Sony going full retard

Tell me, what does it mean?

Nintendo's back, baby!

Oh shit, I forgot about Mario mobile.

Finally, it's Sega's turn to shi-
>Space Channel 5 Vr

It's Microsoft's year baby!

oh shit, i forgot about physical dlc aka amiibo, federation force, hyrule warriors on 3ds, and the 3ds sidecar for monster hunter

>nintendo already went full retard

Oh fuck, all their games are on PC anyways.
Why buy a 4K console if I can future proof with a 4K gaming PC

>windows 10 becoming pretty much malware to win7 users
>its microsoft's year baby

>Muh spying meme

>spying meme

lol, im not even talking about that... im talking about the forced "upgrading" of people's computers without their consent. unremovable popup telling you to install the "upgrade". and other shit like that... they got fucking sued for it and lost

have you like, not been around the past 9 months?

>scorpio will absolutely not do 4k60

4k30fps is still shit. it's super shit. they're pushing the wrong aspect of the tech. unless it has graphics options so people can find a middle ground like 1440p60, it's just gonna be another gigantic piece of cunt shit like the xbone.

Mate, don't be too harsh on the Xcucks. I know they need the unwarranted smirk wiping from their faces but this could lead to mass suicide
