Alright /g/entoomen I got a little story for you.
>friend owns pic related
>as far as tech level goes he is 1/10
>knows how to put the disks in and that's about it
>starts hearing things about 4k and how it looks amazing
>wants 4k on his ps4
>then watches a 144fps demo and wants that too
>to not even speak of the hardware, he only has a standard 720p, 60hz tv
>but ok I'll play along
>hatch-idea.deb
>go over to his house and tell him there's a way I can make his ps4 run 4k
>come prepared with this ass old 160gb, 4200rpm, sata1.0 hard drive pulled from an old netbook, and usb stick to install ps4 os
>backup data on existing hdd, switch drives, install ps4 os and restore from backup
>it's now running exactly like before, minus being somewhat slower and having 340gb less space
>hand ps4 back to friend, tell him it should now be running 4k, 144fps and that the reduced hard drive space is just a result of the 4k "program"
>fucking buys it
>powers the thing up and puts in gta5
>him: "hey why are the loading times longer now?"
>me: "oh it's just the 4k textures, you know, bigger file size and all"
>buys it once again
>game finally loads up
>him: "holy SHIT this is amazing! so smooth! totally worth the hard drive space."
>"also, lol, pc mustard race has to pay like $4000 for a 'rig' that can run this but my $350 ps4 can run it just fine"
>go home, have super toppest of all keks
Moral of the story: placebo effect works especially good on consumers who are already good at swallowing loads of shit.
>>51244795
some friend you are.
You sound like a shitbag. Was the point you stole a shitty HDD or that you're just a bad person at heart?
>>51244795
A lot of work to make your friend feel happier OP.
You're a good friend.
No remorse.
You sound like a fucking faggot.
Enjoy your hat
>>51244815
this. youre a real shit head op
>>51244820
I'm keeping the HDD in a safe place in case he ever realizes what's going on and wants it back. I'm not that big of a shitbag.
>>51244822
Yeah, I guess it truly does enhance his play experience. So I did him a service? That's a funny way to look at it.
>>51244850
the fact you did this at all makes you a real big Shitbag. now promptly fuck off.
Youre both faggots.
>>51244795
Everyone who's calling you a factor in this threads are just bigger faggots. This is Fucking hilarious. I've tried to get my buddy to get a gaming pc but instead he is just an idiot and bought both consoles. Your post made my morning.
>>51244915
You're a fucking factor.
>>51244915
Go back to pcmr you autist.
I didn't know there was this many consolebabbies on /g/
>>51244969
With how cheap a ps4 is, pc gaming is just a meme.
I genuinely believe this. Although you should wait two weeks then explain to him why he's a retard.
>>51244795
I can pull the same shit on my uncle and he'd eat it up. I love my uncle but hes retarded and I hate talking tech with him.
He currently thinks he can turn his ps3 into a ps4 using a ps4 Disc. Being poor all your life really has its way with your mind.
>>51245020
>paying for online
>30fps
top kek
>>51245020
>You can build a pc better than a ps4 for the same price
>>51245169

>>51245169
No you cannot.
>>51245020
>always buying 60$ games
>practically no sales
>have to buy ps+ 50$/yr to play online and get "free" games and "sales"
>no way to pirate
>can build a ps4 crusher pc for 400$
>>51245461
>$400

there you go, 350$ with mouse/kb (pirate windows or get it off g2a) and edges out the ps4 in most benchmarks. if you need wifi throw in some cheap 5$ usb adapter off amazon
>inb4 "it doesn't come with a monitor"
yeah, neither does a ps4. this includes everything your ps4 does (the system, input devices, and a gaming-ready os)
>>51244969
>console Babies
>>51244795
Try that again on a tech literate person see if you can have same result
Op are you jewish?
>>51245642
You fuckin retard
>hurr ps4 don't have monitor
Pc is obviously not like ps4 and you need a monitor and all that shit to be considered a pc tf outta here senpai
>>51244795
Faggot of a friend you are.
>>51245642
>ps4 crusher pc
You do realize that games in 2 years will have to still run at 24 to 30fps at the very least on current consoles, right? Something that fucking 750ti won't even handle.
>>51249566
But it can, you just gotta keep the settings as low as the console counterparts.
>>51249756
No, what I was talking about was lowest settings/same resolution. Besides that would be slightly unfair as some multiplatform PC titles have lower quality profiles than the default graphics quality on console.
Why is he such a shitbag?
His retard friend is happy, and it's not like he could ever actually have any of those things.
