Microsoft taunts Sony over PS4 Pro

4.5
After Sony revealed the PlayStation 4 Pro, Microsoft's official UK Xbox twitter account teased Sony for all the things the PS4 Pro didn't feature that the Xbox One S does. Of course, Xbox didn't outright call out Sony... it can be pretty much inferred from the points they chose to highlight.

The PS4 Pro will not have a 4K Blue-Ray player, the Xbox One S does. The Xbox One S starts at $299, while the PS4 Pro sits at $400. The PS4 Pro is bigger than the original PS4, while the Xbox One S is smaller than the original Xbox One.

Of course, both consoles will see 4K streaming and HDR gaming (the greatest games part is negligible), depending on your TV.

The tease didn't stop there, Microsoft added to it today when more news was revealed.

Then after Sony rejected Bethesda's initiative to add mod support on the PS4 for Fallout 4 and Skyrim, they added to that tweet. They also went on to poke at how the PS4 still isn't backward compatible and that a study named Xbox Live the fastest and most reliable network.

StalwartList haha playstation really messed up with the ps4 pro no 4k blu-ray? really? i was going to buy the pro but after hearing all this i will just wait and get the new xbox


How many people do you know that own a 4k tv? I'm guessing that number is very low compared to the people that own a very nice 1080p tvs


its not about owning a 4k tv its about sony pumping out hardware that can not support actual 4k therefore its not really and improvement to the original
I'm sorry. Did you want faster frame rates or do you want more pretty pixels on screen for a price of a normal ps4 this time last year?


GG i will take the win lol

It's pretty weird that they didn't include a 4k blue-ray player. Thought 4k was one of their main selling points, odd they left it out.
