Those things aren't really needed but they are preferable. I don't have a 4k TV but I still get a lot of advantages out of owning a PS5 over my previous base PS4, like faster loading times and better frame rates for instance.You need to buy a higher end TV if you want to get the basic performance out of the next gen...
I am sure most people know this but not all.. Some of the options needed in a TV are 4k of course but also HDMI 2.1 and a higher level HDR.

Not always true. My £500/$700 TV has HDR10, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos capability, 4k etc. And has Hue ambilight being a Philips.
I think the one thing for next gen that IS hard to get on a budget is 120hz or VRR. But give it a year and there'll be stuff under $1000/£800.
So? My TV cost $600 and has everything of importance (meaning HDR and 4K) and I'm not feeling I'm missing much of anything and I use it for PC gaming.You made my point. Your TV may only be $700 but you are missing 120hz
You're dramatically overstating the ability of these game consoles.I don't recommend anybody buying a TV without 120hz or you will regret it.
Likewise, my TV doesn't do 120hz, but it is 4k and has HDR. I see no reason nor have a desire to replace it with a newer more expensive TV at the moment and like you I sometimes use it for PC gaming as well.So?

No you don't. You need to buy a higher-end TV (or monitor) if you want to get the enhanced performance out of them.You need to buy a higher end TV if you want to get the basic performance out of the next gen...
Hahahahahaha no.I don't recommend anybody buying a TV without 120hz or you will regret it.
I have always advocated for more games to target 60fps, but I would be lying if I said I could tell the difference between 60Hz and the 144Hz screen on my new laptop.
4k60 I'm more than thrilled with for this new generation if that can be hit consistently.
It's not a hidden cost at all, technology is always advancing and you're either a person that constantly wants the best and shells out a small fortune, or you get what you are satisfied with within your budget and upgade every once in a while when you can/want to.Everyone can tell me that they are more than happy with their TV'S. But statistically speaking your TV performance doesn't match the Xsx performance and the Xss would of been adequate for that TV. Bottom line is that the next gen consoles have a hidden cost of a high end TV. I have a Vizio M series(middle level) with the xbox x and when I get the Xsx I will eventually get the Samsung Q70 or Q80.
Out of curiosity, can anybody here please state how much you payed for a PC setup to be able to run ACC at the above specs, I'm guessing it's a little over £1500 yes?
PC2 & AMS2 run quite well so I presume people are able to hit them targets with cheaper hardware?
You don't need a higher end TV for the "basic" performance of next gen. You need a higher end TV for the premium experience of next gen (8k, VRR, 120Hz etc).You need to buy a higher end TV if you want to get the basic performance out of the next gen...

Which destroys your point that you need an expensive TV (or monitor) to get "basic performance" from the PS5/XSX consoles. If you couldn't get "basic performance", nobody would be happy with their TVs (or monitors).Everyone can tell me that they are more than happy with their TV'S.
"Statistically speaking"? What statistics?But statistically speaking your TV performance doesn't match the Xsx performance and the Xss would of been adequate for that TV.
No, they don't. You can use any TV (or monitor) that will display the signal, and that includes anything with an HDMI port (absent other equipment). You don't need to buy an expensive TV to display the signal.Bottom line is that the next gen consoles have a hidden cost of a high end TV.
Think I'll stick with my 14" Sony Trinitron portable.
Most of the people in this thread probably remember how the PS3 was going to be so powerful that you'd be tripping over 1080p games that ran at 60 FPS, so you better go out and buy the best Bravia you can to take advantage and don't be like The Poors playing their 360 on 720p sets. There were maybe half a dozen when the console went out of production that even ran at something you could technically call 1080p; nevermind ones that ran at that with an even remotely acceptable framerate.Everyone can tell me that they are more than happy with their TV'S. But statistically speaking your TV performance doesn't match the Xsx performance and the Xss would of been adequate for that TV.
My PC is about as powerful as these consoles, I built it nearly a year before anyone had access to one, and I regularly play games where I can push a couple hundred FPS even at 4K when unlocked (just like those enhanced XBone titles can on the SeX). I do so on the top-spec TCL 4K television (which is mid-range), which has all of the fancy features that the PS5/SeX support for video (audio is irrelevant for televisions) except 120FPS and VRR.Bottom line is that the next gen consoles have a hidden cost of a high end TV.
