I am intrigued, though sceptical on their 4K gaming claims.
The VR looks neat, will be waiting on reviews.
4K (with FSR). It'll be 1080p upscaled to 4K.
That said, that's not necessarily a bad thing for something they've said is targeting just above a traditional console's price tag.
Yeah, it can upscale.
Consoles tell us they can do 4K60 as well!
They just weren't honest enough to actually say "via upscaling" in the marketing for the most recent generation, or bother to explain that 2K checker boarded up to 4K, after being upscaled from roughly 1.5K... is not really 4K the same way a $4000 PC can do 4K.
It literally says in the video "4K with FSR". They weren't really hiding it.
That's what I'm trying to say, they bothered to specify it can hit 4k60 with upscaling, console marketing tends to just skip that qualifier part, misleadingly.
Ps5 even advertises 8k, because some easy to run indiegame might be able to be run at that res lol.
Ah yes lol, for all the average consumers with 8K TVs, who really need full 8K detail to notice the subtle variation in vector widths in like, Silksong.
... 8K is an actual scam, holy shit, you can do the angular resolution math, and 8K basically only even theoretically makes sense in a VR headset, and thats before you even think about price.
