Every one of those cost more than a single next gen console, no doubt. 

Wickerman777

Who cares !!! 1600p resolutions !!! Yeeeh

Lol, that resolution is absurd, 4K even moreso. Unless you're playing on a drive-in screen and/or unless you've got some sc-fi cyborg eyes there is no point in setting resolution above 1080p. I think these PC guys set their games to these ridiculous resolution settings just for bragging rights, not because they actually see the difference.

Are you serious? My 1440p monitor does wonders not just for games but also general use.

Well i'm not alone... https://www.google.ca/#q=error+code+ps3+update+heavy+rain&spell=1&sa=X&ei=RSSgUdeCHYPerAHC74HQCw&ved=0CCsQBSgA&bav=on.2,or.r_qf.&bvm=bv.47008514,d.aWM&fp=26b4bb55f58fdfc3&biw=1920&bih=1075

Ah. I had traded my original model for a slim by 2010, so that wasn't an issue for me. I agree that coding errors like that should be caught in testing, but you've found one issue that lasted a day. I've spent way more time than that trying to work through issues on PCs.

No I was never able to update MSG4...

My bad. The words "Heavy Rain" should have tipped me off that you were talking about Metal Gear Solid 4.

Hey, why not 100800p? Wouldn't that be awwwwwesome?!!! :roll:

Wickerman777

Nawwhh bro, let's gowww back to 480p.:shock:

Clear difference between 480p and 1080p (Although I've met people that have a tough time noticing the difference between DVD and Blu-Ray, believe it or not). 1080p vs 1600p = no difference whatsoever to human eyes unless the image is being projected onto the side of a freaking building or maybe if the person is viewing the content with their face pressed up to the glass of the screen for whatever crazy reason. This is all about boasting, nothing more.

ah peasants and their damage control

1600p has more than twice the pixels of 1080p if you can't see the difference you need to visit your eye doctor, but I'm sure a miracle will happen and you'll see the difference if or when it happens on a console game

Heavy Rain was just one of the many games I had issues, isn't that what I stated ?  giving examples ?... and this was with a Slim Ps3 and it didn't last just a day... cleary you need to stop making assumptions.

I'd like to try it some time to see if I like it. Too bad you don't live in the neighbourhood.  My current monitor shucks. People give Samsung monitors good reviews, but in my experience Samsung monitors all disappoint in their own ways. On my current one I cannot distinguish yellow from white especially at the bottom of the screen -___-;

But that's current gen games with current gen shader tech... Next gen consoles aren't DX11.1 bound (unless MS want to enforce it for cross platform development).

The next gen consoles are powerfull enough to push gaming forward. There are tons of great developers out there that have never worked on, or really utilized hardware like the gaming PC's have had for the last few years. But of course will we be able to get higher framerates and resolutions on a gaming rig with a monster GPU like that. 

I will buy the PS4 and then later on in the gen I will upgrade or buy a new gaming PC.

never say never. Many people all ready have switched, and many are at least thinking about it. When the depressing comparison shots finally arrive, even more so!

Well mine isn't a Samsung monitor but has a PLS panel like Samsung. Guess you just have bad luck with Samsung.

I love Samung Monitors, they make some pretty good monitors compared to a lot of other companies.

Upgrading every year is a pain in the ass.

Ben-Buja

No one is forcing you to do it.

Nor is it necessary. Only if you're an enthusiast, who absolutely has to have the maximum settings in any given game, then you have the OPTION to upgrade. This is a luxury console only gamers don't have.

Again, never base your upgrades on hardware cycles. Only upgrade when YOU need to.

GeForce GTX 780 doesn't even support DirectX11.1 Level 11.1 i.e. it only supports DirectX11.1 Level 11.0.
