“They’ll be able to put a lot more characters on the screen and allow for hyperrealistic games,” Pachter said.

Sony’s new console will feature graphics chips developed by Advanced Micro Devices Inc. and processors capable of rendering games at 240 frames per second, Pachter said. Current-generation games typically render at 30 or 60 frames per second. As with past model changes, Sony will continue to produce and sell the almost 7-year-old PlayStation 3.

Dat next gen HYPERBOLE.

My body is ready.

 

[Dennis]

loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool 240 fps

 

[RyoonZ]

It'll be 24 FPS then

 

[Emitan]

Is hyperrealism more real than real life?

 

[Thomper]

Couldn't you technically make games run at 240FPS on the PlayStation 3? Or even the PlayStation 2? The games might look like crap but it's possible. It's just that it's absolutely useless for the most part. Just make it 60FPS and have the games look great, that'll do just fine for 99,9% of people.

 

[NotLiquid]

Pachter is on goddamn fire these days.

 

[daviyoung]

um...

lol

 

[grimshawish]

I'm going to go vomit somewhere.
Can the mods create a joke Pachter account please and tag it? Post something to all these things and he'll vanish into irrelevance and it'll all be okay.

/ugh

 

[Blast Processing]

600x400 resolution

 

[Chittagong]

The feel of 480 fps

 

[Derrick01]

Does he even try anymore?

 

[Drencrom]

It's like Pachter gets a kick out of making inane statements.

 

[Eideka]

Sign me up for 240fps games.

lol

 

[Tarin02543]

240 fps? I don't even have 120fps eyes!

 

[darkside31337]

Pachter is onto something here. Sony should have the PS4 marketing should go the route of the PS2. Hype this machine up to fuck (even if most of it isnt true). 240 FPS sounds like a nice selling point.

 

[BY2K]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

How old is he? Cause I think he's going fucking senile.

 

[skynidas]

 

[SolarPowered]

Realistic games and 60 FPS it is.

 

[Fried Food]

yeah, it can render ps2 games at 240 fps.

 

[Beerman462]

240 dps

Spoiler

Ducks Per Second

 

[Nicktock]

It will also clean whatever room it's in. And be backwards compatible with everything, from Space War and on.

 

[RoKKeR]

You just can't make this shit up.

 

[∀ Narayan]

Pachter is on goddamn fire these days.

And drugs! (Probably?)

 

[LonelyGreyWolf]

"Hyperrealistic"? I assume he means in terms of graphics, not actual realism, but what a ridiculous word. Also, 240 fps? Come again?

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

hahaha.

 

[maquiladora]

-240 fps incoming.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Pachter added an extra 0 on there. 240 fps lol. Most console games don't even render at 60fps. That hyperbole.

 

[Shadow of the BEAST]

ultimate power here we come.

 

[grimshawish]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT! SAVED!
Can we all get that dog?

 

[partyphone]

okay so here's the original bloomberg article:

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-...update-in-push-to-keep-consoles-relevant.html

fucking weird. I know Pachter says some dumb shit but this is pretty incredible.

 

[Jibbed]

This is the best response.

Pachter is a fucking tit.

 

[Mileena]

shut up Pachter

 

[Devilgunman]

480p, 240fps

Make sense.

 

[Giran]

Regular realism just doesn't cut it anymore.

 

[1-D_FTW]

That's the Pachter we know. Hilarious stuff. You're NOT gonna get hyperrealistic and 240fps with those specs, Mike.

And that ignores video cable bandwidth. Current HDMI chips can't even pull off 1080p@120fps. And the TV consortium sucks hiney. So good luck getting that in the next century.

 

[Danny 117]

Bullshit.

 

[saladine1]

240fps is overkill imo.

I would be happy with 239..

 

[BD1]

That man has his character perfected now. We have entered the Golden Age of Pachter.

 

[woober]

DMC PC runs 200fps

DMC is 40 fps away from hyper-realism then?!?

 

[DBT85]

I seem to remember reading this on GAF a few days ago. Maybe I had my precognition turned on.

Anyway, lol Pachter

 

[Smiles and Cries]

smh

he sounds worst than the worst PR person Sony could ever hire

hyperrealistic?

 

[Coolwhip]

Please mods, ban Pachter 'news'!

 

[siddhu33]

It's obvious, right?

It will render 3D splitscreen, at 60fps!!!

/sarcasm

 

[BlackJace]

LOL

 

[WeAreStarStuff]

4D is at 240fps..

 

[LilBro64]

Every time I think he can't sink any lower he says something like this....he's truly just a sensationalist who says random stupid crap to generate traffic.

 

[Spongebob]

The PS4 won't even be capable of rendering PS3 games at 240fps.

Is this guy trolling?

 

[Cosmozone]

Ok, Pachter IS a stupid fanboy. How I miss the lol smiley now.

 

[onQ123]

insert little black kid with dreads in red shirt being blown away or something waving his hands around.
