PS4 Pro vs PS4: PSVR Comparison
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 фев 2025
- With the PS4 Pro now on sale, we've heard plenty on how much of a difference Sony's new tech has made to your TV viewing experience - but just how much of a difference does it make to your VR gaming time?
We used Robinson: The Journey as a way to test the two consoles in a blind test. A stunning, and perhaps, the best looking VR game so far on the Playstation consoles.
Is it worth the upgrade or does Sony's standard PS4 do a good enough job?

there is a huge diffrence with vr worlds graphics with the ps4 pro alot more detail in the shark cage experience. looked alot clearer and seems like more of a close up and personal experience
Testing just 1 (!) game and then draw conclusions on whether the PS4 Pro is a worthy addition to the PSVR? Serioulsy?
Heimkineast agree...
Heimkineast
Yup. And the funny thing is, that Robinson is one of the games that shows a big improvement. I don't agree with their playtesters opinion at all. The difference is VERY noticeable in VR. Not so much for standard games on a 1080p TV, although still definitely an improvement there also.
Great avatar!!!
Thanks :)
Heimkineast I have os4 and PS4 pro .. my psVR on pro have a lot a lot a loooooot difference .. rush blood is much better on pro than regular PS4
Man I've tested the same games on PS4 and Pro there's a huge difference!! So much better on Pro !
GAMER SNACK | جيمر سناك can barely tell the difference on mine
GAMER SNACK | جيمر سناك but do u need a 4k tv to improve th psvr ?! or u just need ps4 pro + vr
GAMER SNACK | جيمر سناك وش جابك هنا 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
how could you think you need a better tv when you are using the screen in the headset? christ
wow. what a stupid question.,
The improvements are subtle, yet do so much. For example in my experience, Driveclub VR has a lot of jaggies which makes looking into the distance quite cumbersome. You weren't able to judge a corner that well untill you actually got close to it. On the Pro, while the game still has jaggies on some parts, the track/environmet looks crispier/smoother. At first, I didn't stand still with the difference. I just played the game, thinking there wasn't much difference. Untill after driving a few corners, I started thinking "wait a minute, why is driving around not so heavy on the mind anymore? Oh, I can see the corners way into the distance very clearly now." You don't have to concentrate on seeing the corners anymore, instead now you can just concentrate on how to take the corner and already prepare yourself for the next one, because you can clearly see it.
The improvements look small, because you don't actually stand still to what those subtle things achieve. Some don't see it. Some maybe because they have gotten used to the PSVR graphics on the regular one, they adjusted to it. I only played Driveclub a few times on the regular on and at first the blockiness is rather aparant. I have someone in my friends list who played a lot of Driveclub VR on the regular one and he doesn't notice the jaggies anymore and doesn't see much improvement on the Pro. But he knows the tracks inside out, so his brain fills in the "blanks".
In the past, you could clearly see differences between different generations. The last so many years, graphics already looked good, that it is hard to see the difference nowadays until you start looking into the details and such. And if you can appreciate them.
Great review, DevilMayCry1005 !
I have the Pro and VR and I can tell you the VR is better on the Pro.
James Frog agree 100%
me too
i have psvr and i love it and ill have a pro by xmas. but can i ask what makes the psvr better with the pro?
+the vengefull1 Better hardware which means smoother experience and clear crisp images.
thanks for the reply :)
Really don't agree with your playtesters at all. It makes a huge difference. Higher resolution and super sampling. Everything looks more crisp, clear and vivid. Aliasing is MUCH improved. I recommend getting one for VR if you can.
thx
Sorry but no I don’t wanna spend a shit ton of money especially the price for the pro I don’t care my PS4 slim is good enough
Nonsense I've had the VR for a month now and upgraded to the pro yesterday, I can undoubtedly say there is a big improvement over the Standard PS4. The London heist is one game where it's obvious
Sinclair Webber agree
me too
I got my pro yesterday. I was hesitant to buy it but it was on sale for 339.00 . I couldn't be more happy. The improvement for ps vr games in my opinion is incredible. Carnival games, although I'm still not sure how much I care for the game itself, has much better graphics. Smooth and more colorful. London heist, super stardust, all much better. The ps4 pro makes a huge difference for the ps vr. if anyone is on the fence about buying the pro to improve ps vr , do it.
It's another title like london Geist because i want play games like this one
Cant believe they have a PS4 hanging on the wall with what looks like a sticky pad setup, lord Kaz wept...
Apparently Monster of the Deep has a HUGE difference, and I love that game, so i'm looking forward to getting the pro!
We won't really see many differences between the PS4 & PS4 Pro until later on since the current games were built with the PS4 in mind, and the Pro versions are just patched PS4 games. While there are some games that have noticeable upgrades, those games a few and far between. Once developers are building games with both systems in mind we'll eventually start to see much better upgrades. Horizon Zero Dawn will probably be one of the first games with a noticeable upgrade.
Higher framerate and resolution make a HUGE difference in VR. These are the two things you would expect to get from having a PS4Pro, otherwise theres really not much point in having one.
VR WORLDS LUGE IS A MASIVE DIFFERENCE
Chris Hatton
Yup. Rigs is too. I was shocked how good it looks now. After getting my Pro, I first compared Tombraider on my TV compared to my old PS4, and the difference was definitely noticeable in 4k mode. But I wasn't really wowed at all until I saw the difference it makes to VR.
There is no any difference
I have ps 4 pro with psvr and luge looks like rubish. Very very pixelated. It looks a lot worse than the london heist.
Thanks guys
if you're getting it just for vr wait a bit, I can notice hardly any difference and on stuff like batman etc it's the same the lettering us and bit clearer and it loads a bit faster . if you think it's going to make you're vr become like you're TV ain't guns happen. the average person wouldn't be able to tell the difference. I have both and average vr
I don't see any difference in this video between ps4 pro and regular ps4 on psvr, the gameplay on psvr looks exactly the same.
They picked the wrong game for the testing it is as simple as that. Drive Club VR is a night and day diffence in the gaming experience. Textures on the PS4 are blurry and you can't see very far which results in objects popping up very late on your screen. Also the overall graphical fidelity is lower. These were the sacrifices that had to be made to keep the performance and framerate at a constant level. The Pro has none of these problems. It simply looks and feels better overall. And there are lots of such examples. Same can be said about Rigs which in my opinion is still the single best VR game for the PS in general. It plays a lot better on the Pro. And I own both the PS4 as well as the Pro so I got to test it a lot first hand. The Robinson game really is a bad pick for the test. They should do the test again and pick at least 3 games from 3 genres. I would suggest Drive Club VR, Rigs and Farpoint because they are the games that felt the most different to me. Although Farpoint demonstrates it even better than the other two. Choosing a game from the start line up to test a systems performance is poor judgement as no developper is able to fully utilize the new hardware on their first try. To sum this up we will see games that increasingly showcase the difference in performance between the PS4 and the Pro. Also don't simply draw the connection between VR and Pro as the Pro also performs much better for non VR games. The upgrade is definetly worth it if you can afford the cost.
I’ve tested Driveclub VR and GT Sport and I don’t see a difference
Please make HDR Comparison as well......
thanx guys i was very curious about this
Even without a 4K tv I would think loading games much faster in a pro should be discussed
Every time i play a PS4 video i get a XBOX ad. I have never saw a PS4 PRO ad. The PS4 PRO ad should go like this. PS4 PRO, the PS4 you should of gotten the 1st time.
Should "have" gotten..
This is not even a comparison. This is just play testing a single game!
What headphones are you using please ? Are they plugged in to the PS4 or Bluetooth ?
How do you Disable psvr Tunnel Scope As Im (Not) getting the (360) Experience,
if you can tell the difference between both consoles this answers its own question. of course it's night and day, not night and day would have seen some ppl being unsure. what a daft conclusion hahaha. also the point about not all giving the same reason tells you that it improves in so many different ways. people have their own map in our eyes and in a virtual reality situation if all are picking up different aspects which is better this is a massive accomplishment in emersion in which the vr experience could only say is a complete upgrade on the pro. this sort of thing is similar to the movie theatre and tvs today that produce life time visuals, it's in everyone's interest that thy could not agree the upgraded parts, this without a doubt suits everyone's individual eye and sight, it concludes that the psvr is infact a fantastic machine, it also concludes that playing it on the pro is infact upgraded to a point that we can't pin point were the improvements are but everyone agrees there is and this is is true to a life like scenario. every day life is different to each and every person, thus bringing the virtual experience alive. do you know why some like ice cream and some don't, do you know why some like cinema mode or natural mode on their TV. nope because we all look for different things so again I will point out that out off all that tested it every single one found something that's improved but could not agree on what, then this makes the psvr on the pro better in all them ways. saying that's not night and day is like saying a jaggie is one of mic jaggers off spring of his early sexploit days haha, great video tho done very professionaly good job.
I bought the pro and played many games with PS4 slim and the PRO and frankly I barely noticed any differences. However on a 4K tv then yes there is a huge visual difference.
3:30 and that is why Sony failed on this one. Instead of developers pushing the Pro's potential with the ps vr they are limited to the 40 million original ps4 users that aren't gonna waste money on a new console they already own. I know a couple of people that asked me whether they should buy the pro or the ps vr. And I always say if you don't have an xbone, wait for the scorpio and their vr project. Which seems to me like a wiser choice.
j06 waiting game makers to develop ps4 pro based games? if it's happens ,ı assure you sony playstation sinks.
It's the connections on the back of the pro where it makes it more worthy of purchasing.
Just Glad to see comments People claiming that Ps4 pro has better improvements in Vr over standard one Thank God I made the right choice for Pro! I was really confused if there is kinda difference!
Draw Distance, Textures and Shaders, Aliasing ... just because the Casual Gamer can't fire off the correct terms on demand, doesn't mean they can't appreciate the difference
haven't got a ps4 at the moment but looking to buy for the PS vr so still not sure whether to buy the slim or pro ?
thanks guys i want to buy the vr but was not sure if it would work on the base ps4
The testers just said positive things about both.
Does using the pro get rid of the blurry images like in re7 and Skyrim vr?
Yes, im using the original ps4 and the resolution is shit!!
No difference, finally upgraded to pro as I was to confused about the split reviews but find out the hard way, no difference
Great video. Keep it up!
I have tested PSVR on PS4 original with my friend playing Drive Club & Until down and i was so disappointed as it looked like playing games with 480P, so i was wounder if PS4 pro will fix this AA and resolution issue ?
N Noni Nice you said that. I'd say it the same way. I thought it was just me. For non-vr games, does it also seem to blur the area you are not looking directly at, some sort of bokeh effect? Or is that indeed just me, hahaha? :) Haven;'t heard about this in reviews, either. Or I could have a "special" psvr, I suppose. Mine came with a scratched lens straight out of the box. Have to return it soon.
Clear Blur effect i think is not related to VR its your natural eyes and i think you will get used to it as i saw it in google cardboard too .as for the fuzzy and low res seems PS4 is not capable to run games with 120 FPS without lowering it to a very low shitty resolution and i thought may be PS4 Pro can make it better but after my researcher seems not for the current game and it might be different for the new games that will release later .
i own until dawn,rush of blood vr and recently upgraded to the ps pro and the game looks much sharper now,i could see a big difference but not with all games,some games will pretty much look the same...dont know about driveclub but the demo looked horrible
N nOni Rush Of Blood is brilliant.
Damien Fletcher
yes it is but the resolution is very bad , did it get patch for pro ?
I do have a question... !
Is the PSVR an accessory of the PS4 (or PS4 pro) or does it work in a different way as if it were a different video game console?
I'd appreciate your answer since i'm about to buy a ps4 pro.
Juan Rodríguez it’s a whole different accessory if you still wanted to know. And it’s ridiculously expensive.
Nach Monaten auf der ps4 bin ich nun auf die pro umgestiegen und das einzige aber wichtige ist. Das nun das kantenflimmern bei fast allen spielen fast vollständig verschwunden ist. Das macht einen großen Unterschied und ist in den Videos nicht zu erkennen.
Rigs on the ordinary PS4 gave me vr-sickness after 10 minutes. On the Pro I can play for hours without any form of nausea. 'Here they lie' hasn't a pro patch and after a while plaing it I felt a bit nausea. Improved frames per second and a bit clearer image means a lot for the experience. I'd wish Sony could have set the bar higher. If the screen had better resolution and the CPU could have been a bit more powerful, we would actually have had high quality VR. How much more would it cost us? 200 bucks?
That $200 could mean the difference between selling millions of units or it sitting on the shelf. I think Sony made the right compromises so they could put out a product that does well enough to introduce as many people as possible to VR. Then once they got them hooked, they'll be able to turn up the specs when they launch the PS5 and everything is built into the console instead of as an add-on.
I agree TBone. That over $500 area is pretty expensive for most. At $399 I think Sony made the right compromise, just affordable enough so that most can afford it (I think the Rift and Vive are just too damn pricey), and just expensive enough for it to be a well built, extremely well designed, and perfectly adequate in performance.
I have a DK2, same resolution as PSVR, but with fewer sub-pixels due to the compromised pentile display. And I still get quite a bit of use out of it.... Interestingly, I just looked it up, PSVR in fact has MORE sub pixels than even the Rift and Vive!! 6,220,800 For PSVR, vs 5,184,000 for Rive!! Probably why I've been hearing people are impressed by the surprising lack of SDE on PSVR..
Not to mention the superior lenses of the PSVR, conventional vs the Rift/Vive's CRUMMY Fresnel lenses.
Peder Aas h
TBone4Eva You couldn’t be more right. The concessions made were ones that made it capable for the mass selling of PSVR equipment. It’s already a tough technology for Sony to know how to market as so many people are iffy on VR. Me personally I love it but I don’t want to game on my PS4 Slim. I need to buy a Pro model for the added benefits.
anyone know if the PSPro would lessen the amount of nausea gained through use of the PSVR?
probably not. You're either the recipient of an unlucky motion sickness gene or you need to play more PSVR games or 1st person games to get used to it.
Thank you for making this
If you squint your eyes you can see a slight difference from the Pro to the amateur.
Just bought my psvr a few days ago and it is absolutely amazing....I'm gonna get the Pro today just for vr I'll report back when I test properly
yeah aaaaaand ?
@@natandirt i think the headset took over his mind
@@SN4KE3ATER Yeah lmao, in that time i bought the psvr, sold it and bought oculus rift ck1, gotta say psvr i easier to use, but the overall in game expirience is waaay better on the rift, the controllers are awsome, 360 degrees tracking is sick, and the screen is miles ahead of psvr
I don't have VR PS4, This VR PS4 good?
I have used both and the PS4 looks fine you can pay the extra $100 for a pro but it wouldn’t change much
love the vid, was curious about the difference between ps4 and pro in terms of the looking through a pair of tights effect you get with the vr. The images all look great even with the ps4 but that horrible aliasing effect really makes how clear it is kind of pointless!
So, 8 months on any change here? Are never games taking better advantage of the pro hardware??
I'm only really interested in the psvr upgrade not 4k, so not feeling convinced atm!!
I thought the guy in the right was Tim Tebow. Well when you see him from the side.
Eh, I want to try it but not upgrading to ps4 pro just for it. I was hoping the price would drop to 100 but looks like it was discontinued and the price is still 160 used.
There is no diffrence,The headset stays the same,u cant boost the vr with only ur console , is maxed allready
They're all blind haha. I have a pro and can notice a huge difference
I've got an old ps4 but want a VR headset,
Same, so is the image blurry?
answered my question. excellent video
This is good to hear because I have a slim and I'm loving the PSVR on it. I think it would be silly to drop 399 on a Pro for a tiny improvement in VR when the PS5 is right around the corner and will blow away the Pro in every way. I will save my pennies up for a Samsung Odyssey so I can get the best of both worlds, PS4 and PC.
Console has only been out 9 days and optimising a game does take a while to prefect.
they did a goob job on until dawn and playroom tho...looks much better now
Its 2019. Might as well wait for the ps5 and the next psvr. Should be leaps and bounda better. Now its all about the games.
Would rather upgrade to PCVR. More freedom.
so the difference is the same when u compare side by side a PS4 game and same game patched for ps Pro , slight upgrade, but far from 2 times better... that's the main issue sony is facing with ps4 pro , cos most devs will not make the effort to push the pro to it's limits for sure... that's a shame .
Can ps vr work with ps4 slim?
Yeah it does
on sonys website it says ps vr doesnt go above 1080 and doesnt use 4k. there really shouldnt be a improvement
you should test again with boost mode on
whats that
Does anyone know why the launch bundle is way over $500 now!?
TheSherlockHokage no i found out why, it isn't being sold anymore so people who have it are selling it for higher prices
TheSherlockHokage because they can sell it for way more than they got it for, and make a profit off of it
On Reddit there are a lot of people upgrading to an HTC Vive after trying the PSVR. That could be a reason for them selling it.
Good AAA games on PSVR? The best games on PSVR Right now are ports of Vive games that play a LOT better on Vive.What defines an AAA game to you, its publisher? Its production costs? Whether it is exclusive or not? It seems that to you people, AAA has nothing to do with how good the games are any more.
they make them like this for a reason. more $$$
There’s only like a 25 percent difference in the ps3 and PS4. The next ps should be much better
This the one thing keeping me from PSVR. I want PSVR, but I don't have a pro. I only played PSVR once at Gamestop and it looked good, but they were (of course) using the pro. I asked the rep if it would look the same of the original PS4 he said yeah. Thinking that it sounded like BS I checked and found out there is a difference. Now a $300 investment sounds like it might be a $700 - 800 one. I also don't have 4k so it's a bit of a turn off.
Should I sell my old normal PS4 so I can afford the Pro?
Bottom line lets be real 1080p just as good as 4k ps4 as good as pro xbox one as good as s and x
Looks cool can’t wait to save up and get one.... nice innovative device for PS4
Make sure you didn’t get a PS4, the ps5 was probably released at the time of posting this.
I'm glad I watched this I'm still trying to make my mind up. I have a slim but I've already got the oculus rift.
What is the name of this game at 0:39.
Great advise!
Its worth it for someone like me that has a Big brother that has a PS4 pro and he is about to get a PS5 so he will give me his Pro and i will give my PS4 to my other Big Brother
So i dont need to even overthink like having a 4K TV because its still win win and im not spending money, so no need to overthink
what about the ps4 slim
i tried PS4 VR for the first time today and my legs felt weak and unbalanced why is that?
Disorganized Gaming same, I think it’s because your walking without using your legs
The VR is shit on the standard ps4, like literally my eyes start hurting after 30 minutes
Bruh u crazy, I always play for like 3 hours and it’s so enjoyable
Adjust your lenses it shouldn't hurt your eyes only after 30 mins
Will get the VR for myself next Xmas :)
Did you get it :)
I but what about super slim ps4
I wasn't going to get the pro cause of only slight improvement for 200 more. The VR is still an experience so anyone would be happy using either. To me even if their is a little plur in some games it makes it look real. if it was clear then clearly it would look fake. Like new cgi movies looking so fake compared to older movies of the 70s and 80s. I like that effect like on Rush of Blood. Made it scary.
What a stupid conclusion. Hold of that hundred bucks if youre tight on budget till you have a 4k screen??!! Then get a Pro?? For PSVR.??! Get out. U get a PS4 now u get a Pro no question.
I can't see any difference, I played resident evil but there's no difference
is it worth to sell my ps4 and get the pro???
yes
KnightsSky not a big difference I hear so not worth wasting the cash
Gates KOORBA You asked. I own both. There's a difference. Doesn't matter to me, I can afford toys:)
KnightsSky there may be a difference just not a huge difference
KnightsSky prove it show us u got both PS4
Why did you even make a vid when the thing is obvious
One more lid yay and 4k yes noises.
thankyou!!
Dame I now I need a.ps pro😞😤
Why did the console peasant cross the road? To render the other side.
Cool story child
why are you on youtube? go play your 60fps 4k indie shit games.
Tabasco I didn't know battlefield 1, call of duty infinte warfare, rise of the tomb raider were Indie games
SuperArjun90
80% play on Console. so go fck yourself. dirty pc user
is that why frankieonpc is always saying "maybe the tree/rock I'm hiding behind might not be rendering in for the guy sniping at me." in just about every dayZ video... lmfao
Good info
Psvr works on slim ps4????
Yes
that mean Ps4 pro can improve PS VR at 720p ?
wccftech.com/sony-dev-explains-ps-vr-screen-crisper-project-started-late-2010/
LIONYUNG C Long it's not 720p m8 do you have one
I wish we could get info from Sony or the developer themselves. I fear all these reviews are all placebo results.
ozy311
1000% not placebo effect. But then I don't expect you to just blindly believe a random guy on the internet. I know I wouldn't. The only way is to try it for yourself.
Cool t-shirt
Stupid game to use for the test as there's not much of a difference. RE7 on the other hand is world's apart, the OG PS4 is only barely functional where as the PS4 PRO is far clearer and has a higher graphics preset
I just got a vr and it over heated and broke ._. And that after that my psn got hacked loving life 🙃
How does a vr overheat?? I can't even hear a fan..? and if there isn't a fan built into it, it shouldn't overheat.. cause Sony should test it, and if it overheated during testing they would put in a fan..?.. yeah idk
Argh! Time to upgrade my ps4 slim to pro!
I don’t have a ps4 pro but I just bout the vr and I can’t buy the pro
they tested the wrong game... is see a good difference in quality on my games battlezone rez rush of blood thumper. It's not all games driveclub still looks blurry
TheSherlockHokage the ps4 pro or driveclub vr?.dc is blurry but if you have the vr on your head it still is a great experience.
TheSherlockHokage ah ok. i bought a ps4 pro a few days ago. and i already have a psvr and i have to say that there are a few games which look better with the pro. better sharpness higher render distance and smoother fps. and the ps4 pro is new. in a few months the differences in graphics will get bigger i think. because vr is new too and weve not seen its full potential yet. same goes for ps4 pro. so if you want to use the vr with games look as good as possible fet the pro. if graphics arent that important stay to the ps4. both are good (sry for bad english i am not english )
TheSherlockHokage games still look very nice with the normal ps4 :D its amazing
***** ah ok. no problem.:)
TheSherlockHokage ? :D
Pro isnt worth it
IT IS, ive got way more detail in VR
Cool!
OMG I can make the same noise as them Lmao well I am not the only kind
To these people saying that the pro makes it a lot better, two words; placebo affect
Then you dont own it
Don't get a PS4
Get a PC plain and simple
Donald Trump
PC is too much money. PS4 has better games.
I will get a PC though. Not getting rid of my PS4 and 'PSVR though. Not a chance.
***** Reddit's r/pcmasterrace will certainly help you find a budget build suited towards YOUR needs at YOUR budget.
Ps4 pro + psvr = 600 dol
PC powerful + HTC = 3000 dol
Leave me in my poor virtual reality
Here's the difference between the pro and original when it comes to vr...
Pro: mmmmmmmm
....Original:
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRMMMMMM
