The Old PlayStation Thread | *NEW THREAD IS UP*

Do you play a lot of third-party games that have online multiplayer (e.g. COD, Battlefield, Titanfall 2)? If so, go with the system that you are able to play with most of your friends. Also look at the first party exclusives that Sony and Microsoft currently have and also future console exclusive games. 


PS4 Pro is an improvement from the OG PS4 console. PS4 has beefier internal components which makes it capable for 4K HDR gaming and playing 4K HDR streamable video. 

Xbox 1s is an improvement from the OG Xbox 1 console. Same as the PS4, it has beefier components making it capable for upscaled 4K gaming, playing 4K HDR streamable video, and playing 4K UHD BluRay discs.


If you have a 4K HDR TV:

  • Both systems are capable of streaming 4K HDR videos from apps like Youtube and Netflix.
  • The PS4 Pro is able to play configured games in 4K / HDR display.
  • Xbox 1s has the ability for HDR gaming as well as upscaling graphics to 4K.
  • Xbox 1s has a 4K HD Bluray player that you can play Ultra HD bluray discs



If you have a regular HD TV:

  • Certain PS4 games running on the PS4 Pro have options for HDR, improved framerate, improved graphics, etc.
  • Games played on Xbox 1s will usually run better than played on a OG Xbox 1 console.


Prices:

PS4 Slim (500GB) = $299
PS4 Pro (1TB) = $399
Xbox 1s (500GB) = $299. There are 1TB and 2TB bundles for $349 and $449 respectively.

Look around Best Buy, Amazon, and other retailers because currently the consoles are going for cheaper than the MSRP that I listed above.


Unfortunately. I'm not in the USA I'm in Asia. So things may be a bit more expensive
 
The only glitch I experienced was some of the rings that you collect for Dino wouldn't pick up. I have to reload my game and then I was able to pick the ring up.
 
I never really came across any. What is happening?


Never had any glitches while playing the game.


only glitch I had was the camera with the adamantoise

Having issues dropping off items to finish quests. Happened to me 3 times already. Once with the "master mechanic" quest, then at the Red Frogs pick up, and at the chocobo farm. I read a few people have had issues online. Usually have to do a few other missions and sleep a night before returning to finish the quest but the chocobo one is stuck. Will try to see if it will work tonight after a reload.
 
Yea I haven't run into any issues so far. Only thing against me now is I'm on chapter 14 and only level 38, will make my life slightly difficult

I am playing it on a pro but my TV in not even 4K so not sure what kind of sense it makes but it is a beautiful game.

Played on a Pro + 4K TV.

It's beautiful especially with HDR.

Even without the 4K TV, the 60fps will drop so it's still worth it.
When it will drop though is another issue with SE time.

I played on my day one PS4. It looked great. Some load times were a touch long though, which I hope the Pro would reduce.
 
 
I'm still debating. PS4 xbox1

Did anyone else read the Oral History of Final Fantasy VII over on Polygon? Its a great read

http://www.polygon.com/a/final-fantasy-7
Definitely need to set time to read this.

The depth reminds me of the GameTrailers retrospective series which were also really good



Hopefully Easy Allies reach their stretch goals to bring it back.
Thanks again for posting this, @ddouble

Just finished it; absolutely going to keep my eyes peeled for Easy Allies stuff going forward.
