Almost all the titles run smoothly on Boosts mode, but there are few of them crash.

NewMonday3060d ago (Edited 3060d ago )

"Yakuza 0: Framerate drops and screen tearing issues are gone when playing the game in boost mode"

great since this is a new game, nice to know all games will improve on Pro even without a dedicated patch.

UCForce3060d ago

Yeah, that's awesome. This is very nice update. Great Job, Sony.

DiceAndRice3060d ago

@UCForce Agreed. This is amazing.

Genuine-User3060d ago

There's only one game reported to crash with boost mode turned on - Soma.

ziggurcat3060d ago

that'll likely get a patch, too.

zivtheawesome3060d ago

2 games out of a bunch is a very small amount though. everything else seems to work great!

kevnb3060d ago (Edited 3060d ago )

well two on the list, Resident Evil Revelations 2 and SOMA (not sure how credible the list is). Still a good move to make the boost optional.

Don't click, it's a shitty site.

Ju3060d ago

It's a great list. What are you talking about

LAWSON723059d ago (Edited 3059d ago )

THose ads were atrocious, to be fair all sites including this one have those stupid fake headline ads.

Ju3059d ago

Who doesn't use addblockers these days?

ONESHOTV23060d ago

it's a good thing i bought the pro and not the normal PS4 i really do feel sorry for those people that spent 800+$ on two console in three years so they can finally play third party games at a stable frame lol and they arent even maxed setting. any way i hope this works with persona just as it is with yakuza zero

bluebenjamin3060d ago

I didnt buy the normal ps4 either, Im ready to see what my pro can do over the normal ps4

The_Sage3060d ago

How much to cross your bridge today troll?

ONESHOTV23060d ago (Edited 3060d ago )

The_Sage--- not a penny becuase i dont own the bridge lol

UCForce3060d ago

Well, let's just say. He do that a lot.

Reckless_Love3060d ago

You gotta pay the troll toll if you wanna get in the boys soul!

Nodoze3060d ago

Why feel sorry? I now have a spare PS4 for my Son to game on. Thumbs up.

Do we feel sorry each time we upgrade our phones or iPads? Nope. Same concept here. I welcome this as it allows improvements throughout the generation. Last gen we waited an ETERNITY for new hardware and upgraded capabilities. As noted I welcome this new frontier of mid gen upgrades. To each their own. If you don't like it, don't cry...just don't buy it.

ONESHOTV23060d ago

"If you don't like it, don't cry...just don't buy it." the ones that cry the most are console only gamers that bit---ch about how expensive a 400$ console cost so no it's not me that's cry it's the other sheeps in the flock. my monitor cost 1200$ my rig cost me 1900$ plus my MSI laptop 1500$ so tell me who is the one bi--tc- about money ? oh i almost forgot the plastic 530$

HallowedSoul13060d ago

@oneshot isnt it messed up that a 4k gsync monitor costs as much as a giming rig :( in canada the 32in acer predator costs 1600 with tax doesnt even have hdmi 2.0. sole reason alot people including myself are holding off on 4k gaming well that and im waiting on nvidia 16gb hbm2 4k gaming cards to be released.

*related now @oneshot i think your hate for sony is rediculous, especially this gen sony is killing it they are merking xbox and nintendo and they are still stepping there game up instead of coasting. got to give them props for that man. also as a person who bought the launch 60gb ps3 with full onboard ps1/ps2 backwards compatibility chips and the fact that they made the console expensive and majority of gamers didnt start buying ps3 until sony dropped bc and released the bare bones shell of a console the 80gb ps3. sony got the overwelming proof from gamers that gen bc wasnt important enough for gamers as a whole if it raises the console price. you honestly think sony can just bc ps3 games with completely different complicated archietecture without recoding every game to work on ps4. everyone knows the cell was complicated. only way sony could do bc for ps3 on ps4 would have been to release onboard chips like the ps3 60gb, but other than dealing with a handful of gamers bitching its not worth the premium for sony.

Ju3060d ago (Edited 3060d ago )

My update was, uhm, $160...so, where are the $800 coming from?

@above....got me an 55XBR850D for $798. I would think that wasn't such a bad deal. 4K makes a difference even if it doesn't hit if native all the time: No more jaggies (switch to the XBO on the other input and it's night and day). Supersamling is close, but not same.

gtarhro73060d ago

Well I make a decent amount of money, sucks for you.

tcharger3059d ago

Why feel sorry for someone with two ps4s, a pro and a regular.... Both get every day use.

Sparta073059d ago

You should feel sorry for yourself.
You have nothing to do but troll all Sony articles.
Give it a rest. We all know you don't have a PRO. You been down playing thus update since the beginning.

ONESHOTV23059d ago

lol fool http://imgur.com/o0FpqC3 now tell me if you can find this on google

gigoran3059d ago

im not a poor homeless guy so it was no issue for me. damn, I ended up getting 2 pros and 2 psvr on top of my launch ps4. its nice to have a job and buy stuff like the rest of the world

yezz3059d ago (Edited 3059d ago )

It's absolutely astonishing that you get destroyed by dislikes when talking about the truth. No wonder games are running so badly when people cheer for this kind of thing. They're happy to buy a second machine in a single generation to be able to play closer to 30fps and 60fps. Soon even the Pro can't handle a steady performance because developers don't give a damn. My standards aren't super high imo but I feel like an elitist for wanting a 30fps in game, how mad is that..

Sparta073058d ago (Edited 3058d ago )

You can that on google.
😉
Not yours 🤥

ONESHOTV23058d ago (Edited 3058d ago )

Lol my user name is Mondaymurder23 on origins steam gog and imgur so tell me were else have you seen that picture plz link it to me. My user name on PSN is sniperbsr and sniperbsr_2 so I'm waiting

zivtheawesome3060d ago

hey can't sony add the option to use post processing AA on unpatched games? it could serve as a good thing for all the unused GPU power on the pro for unpatched game.

Ashlen3060d ago

That's a good suggestion. Hardware increased AA seems like something that should be possible.

DivineAssault 3060d ago (Edited 3060d ago )

The only downside to this is i finished most of the games i wanted to play already. Whats good is new owners will get to play these in the best way they want day 1.

G20WLY3060d ago

You know there are more games coming out, right?

DivineAssault 3060d ago

Ya think?! Thats why i said "THE ONLY DOWNSIDE" I plan on reinstalling everything i had to deleted onto the external HDD.. You troll patrol minions look for anything negative someone posts.. Im glad they're adding this feature so dont get your panties twisted.

LoveSpuds3059d ago

I agree divine, I already got the Platinum in my favourite PS4 games, Bloodborne and Uncharted 1 through 4, not that their performance bothered me, they all played incredibly well in my opinion. Having said that, the idea of an even smoother Bloodborne does make me wish I could delete my trophies and start over :)

Looking at my shelf, I have 140+ games I can revisit so I amight really excited for this next firmware upgrade, I think Evil Within will be my first replay, I really enjoyed that game at launch and have never replayed it...till now.

G20WLY3059d ago

Okay, wtf is wrong with you, man? I was trying to let you know other games will benefit from this new boost feature.

If you already knew that I'm sorry if I insulted your intelligence - I was just trying to help!

DivineAssault 3059d ago

Dont take it personel bra.. There's a lot of people who troll like that & others who legitimately keep up w their game info.. No need to apologize, just a misunderstanding...

G20WLY3059d ago

Yeah, well it's tricky not taking it personally when someone flat out calls you names in return for your help.

You're right about one thing; in hindsight, there was no need for ME to apologise at all. I guess I know where I stand with you now.

According to Pachter, the PS4 Pro sales aren't doing very good. Maybe drop the price $50 and bundle in a game since Xbox One X is coming?

thatguyhayat2922d ago

Patcher baffles himself sometimes. Ps4 pro is doing really well

IGiveHugs2NakedWomen2922d ago

Agreed. If 1 in 4 PS4's being sold is a Pro anything Pachter says about PS4 Pro sales numbers should be completely ignored.

bigmalky2922d ago

You can buy a PS4 Pro, with Horizon and Wipeout for £350 in the UK at the minute. Basically, you're getting the console for £280... I'd say that's a bargain. Why do people keep asking for another £50/$50 off when plenty of places do bundle deals with great prices?

Ju2922d ago

I have the feeling there is a price cut coming for the holidays.

LamerTamer2922d ago

They will have a hard time with X1X out.

bigmalky2922d ago

No they won't. Most parents will probably go for the cheaper option for Christmas presents. Most gamers that were waiting for a price for XoX, unless they're die hard Microsoft fans or spec junkies, will see that Sony have a cheaper option with huge exclusives coming in the new year, along with third party titles that will probably look little different to their XoX counterparts.

It's amazing how biased opinions seem to speak for the entire gaming population, instead of looking at people as beings that can, and will, use logic.

Petebloodyonion2922d ago

Most parents will go for the basic version of Ps4 or Xbox1 instead of a pro or X1X.
Most parents will ask if it's play COD, FIFA or GTA since theses are the biggest sellers on both platforms.
Most parents don't have freaking clues about the exclusives coming on Xbox or PS4 just like you probably don't have a clue about exclusive deals coming on Apple music.

It's amazing how N4G hardcore gamers seem to speak for the entire gaming population, instead of looking at people as beings that can, and will, follow the herd of COD/ GTA/ FiFA.

bigmalky2922d ago (Edited 2922d ago )

@Petebloodyonion

If you read my post properly, you'll see that I said parents will go for the cheaper console. I never even mentioned whether that's the upgraded models or not.

As for the games, it was in regard to gamers wanting a console, not the parents. Totally different sentence and subject.

It's amazing how people would actually look less like idiots if they actually read an entire post, before jumping on someone's comments.

IGiveHugs2NakedWomen2922d ago

If Sony drops the price of the Pro and it's $150 cheaper than the $500, checkerboarding beast, the only thing Sony will have a hard time doing is shipping Pro's to retailers.

bigmalky2922d ago

They don't need to drop the price. You can buy a Pro with one or two games in a package for £100 cheaper than an XoX with nothing on it's release.

LIGATURE2922d ago

I love ps4 but if the x gives all the multiplat games at least 1080/60 and update past multiplat games then id go for the x.but id get a switch before ither😂
