This could also very well be a PS4 Pro vs PS4 tech breakdown. While we all know that the PS4 Pro trumps the PS4 -- and in turn -- the PS4 Slim in every way, we breakdown just how, and whether the extra price of the PS4 Pro is worth it if you're buying a PS4.

Using the motion controllers to combine a variety of shapes and colors (and a bit of freehand painting) you’ll produce beats, synths and…other musical sounds (I’m not an EDM expert so you’ll have to forgive my ignorance on the subject) which will create and elevate the chosen track (again not a huge selection but enough to showcase ArtPulse).

Normally I try to go into ever Indie title I play with an open mind, and that was no different with Himno. The game boasts “a non-violent, no death platformer.” That may be true that you do not fight off zombies or orcs. However, the bit about not dying is a load of crap as you will constantly fall into the water as you have no clue where you are going half the time.
The animation is nice and it looks like it controls well but they seem to have forgotten to make it a game.
Lyam writes: - Mekabolt is very simple in concept. Your gun itself is the mekabolt and shooting enemies allows you to manipulate them in a way to continue on in the stage. For instance, one enemy walks on a platform and by shooting it, you can use it to access higher heights. Another is a flying one that when shot, it falls to the ground briefly, letting the player have a moment to jump atop of it and ride upwards. Figuring out the patterns of the enemies and what their benefits are is the key to success in finishing stages. There’s not much difficulty since each time a new concept such as a new enemy appears, the next few stages are simplified to learn the benefits of that enemy.
If you own a 4K TV, or will soon, and don't already own a PS4, the Pro is a no brainer.
What if you already have an original PS4? Seems like it's not much worth upgrading in either direction quite yet.
Easy answer pro... No questions ask...
100 dollars more for a 2x the power is a bang for you buck..
all depends. if you're happy with how things are with the vanilla PS4, and don't want to invest in 4K right now, get the slim. if you want some of the added benefits Pro will offer, but don't have a 4K HDR TV, get the Pro. if you have a 4K HDR TV, and want the take full advantage of the Pro, get the Pro.
