Sources:Upgraded PlayStation 4 is Codenamed NEO, Contains Upgraded CPU, GPU, RAM

GiantBomb article
quote:
NEO will feature a higher clock speed than the original PS4, an improved GPU, and higher bandwidth on the memory. The documents we've received note that the HDD in the NEO is the same as that in the original PlayStation 4, but it's not clear if that means in terms of capacity or connection speed. Starting in October, every PS4 game is required to ship with both a “Base Mode” which will run on the currently available PS4 and a “NEO Mode” for use on the new console.

That was very detailed. Hopefully this will chill the people freaking out that they are going to abandon their ps4.

Will buy.
I wonder if UC4 will be a Neo title, as the article says devs can release Neo capable titles before the Neo releases, which leads me to believe UC4 will be one of those.

Be interesting to see if the Xbox gets an upgrade in response.

I'm curious to know if any deals will be offered for people willing to trade in their old ps4.

I still think this is a horrible idea. Incremental upgrades during one hardware cycle?
I'd rather just get a PC.

So games have to have a base mode and a Neo mode, but how is that going to make games better? Isn't that making it harder to produce good games in a landscape where games are mostly shipped super broken anyway?

Why can't NEO mode and standard mode coexist?
Can't the devs just build the game to take full advantage of NEO mode at native 1080p and let the standard mode run at a lower resolution upscaled to 1080p.
This way they wouldn't divide their user base and as long as both consoles are running at the same frame rate it wouldn't put anyone at a disadvantage.

Yeah....I'd rather not have to buy an entirely new console every time they want to make a slight upgrade.
Meanwhile in PC masterrace land, the comp I built in 2012 is running Black Desert on the highest settings at 50 FPS in highly populated areas.

As a recent PS4 buyer, someone please form my opinion on this for me.

This shite should of been the ps4 and the other Xbone.
They stuck it up console users arse, with the so called,"Next Gen" pieces of shits, and now want u to buy an actual Next gen console?
frick both companies, they pushed their garbage out, when they should of waited, and this should of been their first next gen consoles.

Developers are all pissed about this

This makes me happy that I got a PC and just picked one of the consoles to play exclusives on. Now, instead of having (well, its not a necessity, but I'm a geek and like new shite) to buy a new console for an incremental upgrade, I can just buy a new GPU or something if I need to upgrade that will see more bang for my buck.
