Sure, but if the framerate is locked to 30fps, there's no point that, amirite?But it does have boost mode.

Remember that Sony and Jym Ryan's plan was to charge for it. They wanted to charge you for those PS5 updates but they had to change course at the last minute after seeing what Xbox was doing. That's the reason there are practically no updates and there won't be. They have nothing to gain and money to loose.PS5 has entered its 6th month and most PS4 hits doesn't have a PS5 patch yet.
I am not asking for remasters, just a patch that does what Xbox One|Series X are capable of doing natively thanks to their superior backward compatibility.
I want to play those games at native 4K and / or unlocked framrates.
Even sony games don't have them in 99% of the cases. Ratchet & Clank is perfectly capable to run at 4K and 60fps and was patched weeks after being give for free, c'mon sony.
I am not saying that old games noone cares about should be patched but big blockbusters released recently? What are you waiting for?
Then coul sony please provide a boost mode that does exactly what they are doing on Xbox? it ca be optional like it was on PS4 Pro and it's not perfect nobody is going to complain because it's optional.
What’s to remember if you have nothing to back up that claim?Remember that Sony and Jym Ryan's plan was to charge for it.

Talk about FUD. Nowhere was that said or hinted by Sony.What’s to remember if you have nothing to back up that claim?
It has it running by default. It does the same thing the PS4 pro boost mode does.How? it's just running games with poor framerate on PS4 better.
The only thing that would have happened
No point why? It helps games run at a better frame rate. Some games like Just Cause 3 had unstable frame rates and this would help it stay locked. And others with dynamic frame rates upto 60 can be a stable 60 too. That's the point of boost mode.Sure, but if the framerate is locked to 30fps, there's no point that, amirite?
Eagerly waiting my 60fps patch for Gravity Rush 2. Any day now!
I'm specifically talking about games with locked framerate. JC3 was one of the infamous examples and as you mentioned, runs pretty much flawless on PS5, but is not a norm. If the game didn't even receive PS4 Pro patch, then they will not benefit from boost mode.No point why? It helps games run at a better frame rate. Some games like Just Cause 3 had unstable frame rates and this would help it stay locked. And others with dynamic frame rates upto 60 can be a stable 60 too. That's the point of boost mode.
What are they supposed to do? The PS5 already has near perfect BC with boost mode for those games that can benefit from better frame rates or dynamic resolution. Beyond that you need to change the game itself.And the firmware development teams?
And remaking games that aren't even ten years old.And porting games on PC like Guerilla.
We must look forwards not backward, upward not forward and always twirling twirling twirling towards freedom.Sony studios are busy making new games.
It's fine on PS5. Series X does it better but they kind of have to. They are banking the first couple years of Series X on old games you can play on Game Pass. Polishing them up with a better frame rate or resolution is an easy win for their plans. Meanwhile instead of getting a Bloodborne patch, PS gamers are getting exclusives like Demon's Souls, Astrobot, Returnal, Ratchet, etc.Sony really fucked up with backward compatibility.
It wasn't great with PS4 Pro but that was fine since it wasn't as powerful as OneX and they could have been lagging behind Microsoft.
Now 4 years later they are unable to give us a decent backward compatibility on console that shouldn't have problems running old games at 4K 60fps.
Series X does it and it does it by having a better software behind the curtains.
And porting games on PC like Guerilla.
Guerilla outsourced the port to Virtuous didn't they?And porting games on PC like Guerilla.
If the TLOU remake is true it's gonna be really disappointing imo, they're already quite stagnant and if TLOU1 remake is their actual next project it will be the ice in the cake.And remaking games that aren't even ten years old.
That will have the same problems again and in the future people will create a thread like this again asking "where are the PS6 patches?".Sony studios are busy making new games.
Um.... they produced what 7.8m units so far..... for a consumer base of >100m. So in a world without scalpers >90% wouldnt be able to get a PS5. So unless you think you are better than 90% of people you would probably still be SOL. But yes, blame it all on "teh skalperz"The lack of PS5's is upsetting me q lot more than the lack of PS5 patches.
I'll beat the shit out of anyone who tells me its not "teh skalperz"
Those are outsourced companies porting old games to PC.And porting games on PC like Guerilla.
Upset over PS4 games playing like PS4 games... Nice
Anything Sony decides to do to patch PS4 Games to run better on the PS5 is a Bonus not an obligation.
If you were upset of about no VRR or NVME expansion ability 6 months after launch then I could understand being a bit upset but the fact that the games work on the PS5 should be enough and everything else is gravy.
Destiny is an active project with programmers working on it daily. That's quite different than pulling an old release, patching and testing it. Sony can do it but it's clearly not a priority for them as it is at Xbox. But again, one first party publisher is putting out new exclusive titles and one hasn't released a single exclusive for their console yet with none in the near future. So... as long as we are critiquing keep that in mind.Hand waving at free upgrades is a sight to behold. Bungie can manage it for destiny yet to fans Sony can’t do it because they are to busy…

What does a next gen patch have to do with greatness? God of War was patched and not Killzone because God of war is not a great game?I don’t thing PS4 games needs patch... they are already great games without that.
That is great and nice but I still prefer to have new games.What does a next gen patch have to do with greatness? God of War was patched and not Killzone because God of war is not a great game?
There are additional hardware resources available and allowing customers to take advantage of them doesn't prevent working on new stuff. Unless you are insinuating that SSM and Sucker Punch are not working on new games. I won't mention any of the Ms studios.
Even on series X most of the games are not native 4k and you think sony can on ps5 with a patch update? And what special boost you seen on Xbox that Sony BC didn't? Seriously are you at least properly informed how the "superior" BC works on series X? Because in most of the cases on series X games runs better just thanks to the one X higher graphic setting over the PS4 pro and it's quite a minority the games which received special enhancements compared the whole catalogue, if we want to be brutally honest.PS5 has entered its 6th month and most PS4 hits doesn't have a PS5 patch yet.

That's not that simple how you think. It requires a notable investment and probably for Sony is not worth it. But I wouldn't exclude they will do something in the future considered how aggressive MS is became in this frontI used to find it super weird, why are patches so slow, why are games being added to a service, super slow, it's like drip feeding us BC games / patches... I was always like, how hard can this be for a multi billion dollar company, right?
If they wanted this to be done, just hire a few exta dudes to do it, right?
Then I realise the reality is, they are actually drip feeding us the patches and BC games, this way we have something to look out for, they fill in some gaps in between game launches. Keeps us engaged and interested in their system, kinda sad, but its also kinda smart because it works and its super duper cheap for them.
The big Question is, how do we get these big company's to work harder for us?
And when a new system or something launches, old games just work on it full res on full auto?
We agree, maybe its not simple but it can be done, the answer is just money, so now they are getting best of both world, take it easy on the patches and stuff and spend way less.That's not that simple how you think.

EA is doing it for EA Play. MS is doing it for Game Pass. Both require a plethora of games to keep subscribers happy. Re-energizing old titles with upgraded frames or resolution is a quick way to keep some gamers interested and builds social media hype.Ea is doing it as well, seems like Sony is the odd one out on this issue.
4k/60, 1080p/120, etc.It's already 1080p/60 what are you hoping for????
ND should be blamed to not bring MP Factions... that is the only think they needs to focus ASAP.
It should have be released packed with TLOU2 and now we are in the forever waiting loop.
4k/60, 1080p/120, etc.
