The team known for comparing latest games on PC, PS4 and Xbox One consoles found the PS4 Pro performed worst with Skyrim special edition. The compromises are evident as spotted by Digital Foundry in their benchmark tests. It could invariably affect their player base as it did with the PS3, when it got launched with a much expensive price tag. While Microsoft confirmed that their 4K console codenamed Project Scorpio will be priced much higher at $600 when it launches next year, Sony is hesitant to take the big leap.
Sony and Microsoft try to achieve the same in their consoles which are priced abysmally low at $300 or $400. Rendering any game, be it new or old in 4K resolution is a difficult task unless you have a PC with the latest Nvidia 1080 graphics card and an i7 processor. However, the Playstation 4 Pro which was supposed to an impressive performance lags behind due to poor optimization and probably some hardware issues. Skyrim Remastered Edition, the latest version of the open world Bethesda game runs much smoother with higher frame rates on the less powerful Playstation 4 console. But, the problem that was highlighted on PC gaming has now found its way to consoles. Sony’s PS4 Pro is the big console that promises 4K resolution gaming on a couple of titles and the best graphical fidelity unlike its less powerful PS4 device.Įverything was supposed to go according to plan as the PS4 Pro gets launched today for $400.
