Well they have said that all games on Scorpio must be playable on Xbox 1. If you have features on one and not the other, then it isn't really the same game on both platforms, is it?
In that case, no, they haven't and won't say that is not allowed. Those sort of decisions will be left to the developers.
Developers on the PS4 Pro can't use higher def. textures and assets than what's used on the regular PS4 versions of their games?
Hmm. I'm starting to wonder how much of an obvious difference there will be btw Scorpio and Pro games? Are we potentially looking at OG Xbox and PS2 levels?
Correct.. They haven't increased the 8GB RAM.. So, no place for high res textures in that small RAM budget.
Scorpio got extra RAM for that. 12 GB RAM it seams, they got 4 GB extra ram which can be used for hi-res teztures. 50% more RAM.. And Scorpios RAM is FAST.. 50% faster than the competition.
MORE POWA for the high rez textures.
(We're learned the last 3 years that more power is all that matters, let's stay with that, also when the table turns)
Not really, back then many ps2 games vere ported to OG Xbox, and often we got a crappy ported version. In the case of Scorpio it's the high end PC version we got on Scorpio. Complete with high rez texture packs. (most likely as an download option on Scorpio.) high rez texture packs has been available for pc games for years now btw.
All that talk with power and the ps4 pro is NOT. Over clocking cant do what they think.
They are banking on people to eat that hype up.
You need more memory to do more. That have been the rules on PC.

There were many other times that the OG Xbox version destroyed the PS2 version. There were also games that could be ported from PC, which simply weren't possible on PS2. Elder Scrolls: Marrowind being a perfect example.
No, I think I can definitely see some similarities with that generation. I had a digital widescreen display and 5.1 surround. There were some real lookers on PS2 and the same will happen with Pro. I just remember getting a more solid AV experience with my Original Xbox, when you take an average of all games that I played. Of course, I believe only PS2 had GTA at first, so that was something special that I couldn't compare on Xbox.
“Scorpio is a 6 teraflop gaming machine, which will be a great gaming machine for true 4K gaming, giving you a native 4K frame buffer so you can see games in all their beauty,” Xbox’s Phil Spencer said. “Or if developers want to use those 6 teraflops in other ways they’re free to do that.”
Let's face it. Outside of some nice visuals for PSVR the PRO isn't going to be able to touch Scorpio. MS have to now bank on the wide adoption of 4K TV and for that to happen they are going to have to show something soon......do that and they will sling shot past SONY.
For me PS4 PRO has no USP outside VR......Scorpio is everything the PRO should be. HELL even the base model X1 is now everything the PRO should be.

The PS4 Pro should have a GPU that runs some games at sub-1080p and not be able to do VR?
I think you took things too far and got distracted by the UHD blu-ray drive, fam.
It has a GPU that is 3 times the power of the base Xbox One and 2 and a bit times that of the regular PS4, that is its USP.
The Scorpio will of course be an even greater upgrade over base XB1, PS4 and even the Pro.
It's all opinion......we'll see just how badly the PS4 base runs PSVR compared to the new PRO......I also don't think that the PRO is 3x the One S in GPU.....
Just because YOU can't comprehend what the specs differences say...this doesn't change the facts of what they are.
It's going to be a Scorpio launch title now, and although the delays have been frustrating, I think it's going to end up being a showcase title. It's absolutely a game that can benefit tremendously from the extra horsepower.
I'm just hoping they show it before the next E3.
Halo 6 on scorpio. Oh my. There are some scenes in halo 5 that are mighty impressive, showing off 343i prowess. A few of my first wow moments this generation. Curious to see what they can do with over 3x more gpu power, more/faster RAM. Im hoping for a fake 4k like Days Gone with 60fps and all the effects dialed up. Great iq, max effects and a locked fps. Damn.
