Now Sony’s Mark Cerny, the lead architect on the PlayStation 4 hardware, explains why 4K gaming isn’t feasible just yet.


Speaking to the Japanese press about the PlayStation 4 hardware, Cerny said that he’s “personally very interested in 4K”, but that the technology is still new and requires lots of horsepwer to run. Cerny explained in simple terms why there isn’t 4K gaming on the PlayStation 4:
By “full HD”, Cerny is talking about 1080p which PlayStation 4 games will support (what we’ve seen so far). There are only a handful of 4K television sets available, and they retail for many thousands of dollars. 4K gaming and 4K movies are still many years away, as other technology components need to catch up to the massive resolution of these displays.

Shame, but thats going to be more than likely nextgen then...

it just like the 1080p eara all over again. It will be a big thing in time i guess

hopefully ps4 should be native 1080p rather than most games 720p

Good news, hopyfully technology advances so we are able to 4K gaming.

4k is still to new it will come in time having the support to play 4k movies is good enough for now the next next gen consoles will have the ability but as stated in the report very few 4k tv's even out

Thanks for keeping this section alive single handedly lew

I'm still chillin, having a blast on vacation in India with good o'l AV cables

It's funny that I have NEVER heard of a 4k television until the announcement of the ps4. Now that it doesn't support it, I suppose 80% of you will bitch about how shitty the system is. :dumb:

Thank you for the information and keeping us up to date!

maybe one day ill get sectional mod for ps3/ps4 section ^_^

where can we look to see the native resoloutions of ps3 games? i want to know what they are?
