Quote from: Raven on Jun 15, 2016, 02:01 PMSo if I'm understanding this, the extra power is useless unless you have a 4K TV. Working something like this...

Developer creates game for the original console. It runs at 1080p and 30fps. Developer then patches the game to run at 4K if you have the Scorpio and a 4K TV. Framerate does not improve and there are no additional graphical features. It is purely about running the game at native 4K or not.

...is that about right?
no, they just arent clear about it.

they say it will have no exclusives, but then say it can have exclusives. they say it will just benefit people with 4k screens, but then say devs can use the power however they want.

i feel they are intentionally being unclear about the whole thing. they want to have their cake and eat it too. they want to appease to both sides, the side that doesnt have a 4k tv and wants to buy the XB1 S, and the side that wants to upgrade to the scorpio and wants devs to use its power besides an upgrade to resolution. there is no reason they just cant be clear about it.

but going off of MS's history, they have no problem screwing over costumers who still have a older product from them, the prime example of this would be Windows. they are releasing their games exclusively on windows 10, and screwing over costumers who have windows 7/8. even though they have no real reason too, and nothing standing in their way, other than the desire to push win10.
