Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?

Someone posted this earlier, off-screen but seems smoother than what I remember the game being like.
Didn't feel so up and down because of one post in a long time!
Good of Sony to implement something that should have been there Day One. Now we need a game-by-game toggle and a little icon saying a game has official Pro support and it'll feel complete.
Though honestly, maybe be it's because I've upgraded my computer upwards of 10 times since 2011 but this isn't a game-changer to me. This is eecially the case as it only really smoothes out locked framerates for the majority of games out there. 30fps is still 30fps and Bloodborne's frame pacing issues are still present.
Oh, and the GIF spam (and to a much lesser extent Beast Mode talk) is annoying at best and thread-ruining at worst. If hype trains aren't allowed neither should those.

Bottom one looks like it's in slo mo. I say it's fake.
Would love to see what Uldal looks on a populated server. Thing always lags on mine. I would do it myself but I am not currently subbed.
I can agree with that. I'm always happy with more options. Especially when the product is targeted at the enthusiast and not the mainstream.

Any Driveclub vids yet?
This would be the perfect game to test (Broforce). So many slowdowns!

This is good, what are the chances the pro will get future boosts, do I hold off longer to get one?

Sony should have a PSN sale when this firmware finally releases. I reckon it would do pretty well.
Wait for the horizon zero dawn ps4 pro bundle

Probably more testing was required to make this feature work and make sure it didn't break things. I could see this being a pretty major testing effort to check most of the library and make sure no big issues appear.

Anyone have a beta firmware code they can send me? Pretty please?
Just checked my email fully expecting to not get into the beta, since I never get into any betas, and for once I got in? Still stunned to see the email, excited to try it on my Pro later tonight.
Has anyone tested the external hard drive capability? Very curious about how smoothly copying back and forth between the internal and external works. If it's pretty seamless (not having to redownload saves and so on) I can see a lot of folks putting a small SSD internal and a 2-4T external and being really happy with it.
Also curious if you can put games on an external, bring it to another PS4, log in to that PS4 with your credentials and play games off the external HDD without reinstalling.
Would be awesome to be able to bring like a portable 4TB usb 3.0 HDD filled with everything over to a friends and play anything without redownloading. Great way to show friends games they haven't seen yet without waiting eons for downloads.

I'm the closest thing you're going to a ninja in this forum and I'm hear to say that the blade in this gif can't cut an over ripe lime.
Still impressive tho.
