4k native for games? That would require some majorly expensive hardware to produce. I mean, 2560x1600 is about the tops for a game like Crysis 2 w/ high settings and an AMD 7970 and a Core i7 + 8 GB's of DDR3 RAM, that will put out around 40FPS.

With a console you have to worry about packaging, power consumption and heat.

If they plan on doing it I would be interested to see how they package it and keep it affordable. Sony can't have debut another 600 dollar console.

the red rings of death now produce a laser (a la Real Genius) that burns a worm hole in space.

There's no chance that a 4K screen resolution can be playable, at least comfortably.

I have a hard time handling anything over 50 inches.

I love that movie.

I love Val Kilmer.

He makes my heart beat loud like thunder.

Kurt Russell thinks Val Kilmer sucks.

The screens don't have to be bigger to fit more pixels.

The new 600 series from nVidia does much better than 40 FPS on DX11 Crysis 2.

edit: GTX690

2560x1600, DX11, Ultra settings

68 FPS average

5760 x 1080, DX11, Ultra settings

47 FPS average

4K would be about the same performance as (3) panoramic monitors running 1080p.


GTX690 is a dual GPU card, right? Cost, power, heat, packaging etc means no way that goes into a console.

The report follows Sony's announced 4K XBR LED television line in sizes up to 80 inches, and this could be the start of an industry-wide push for 4K (sort of like the last couple years' 3D craze).

Why not? The huge 3D push they made took so well...
