Thank you very much all of you for your kind and valuable suggestions [MENTION=9361]Radical[/MENTION] [MENTION=507]manigamer[/MENTION] [MENTION=35465]hamidkhatri[/MENTION] [MENTION=26]Chandoo[/MENTION] [MENTION=93260]GloriousChicken[/MENTION] [MENTION=124622]neox3d[/MENTION]

after a lot of searchings and reading reviews, I made a choice of PS4 Pro over slim 500gb, reasons being
1. 500gb will be hard to manage, 1tb slim costs 39k.
2. 4k HDR tvs are getting cheaper and so, it will be a bit future proof
3. difference between slim 1tb and pro was only 10k
4. Sony firmware 5.50 will offer supersampling in PS4 pro which will render at 4k and downscale to 1080p for 4k like graphics (digitalfoundary analyzed it, it was good)
5. Having latest hardware will be peace of mind InshaAllah

I know it might be overkill but for, mind peace I went for it. I ordered it today and it will be with me probably by tomorrow InshaAllah

its a region 2 console. please guide me should I make Region 1 psn or region 2. other info I must be aware of

and also suggest me good titles of it I should start with (available in used market)

Great, it certainly will give you that extra detail.

Titles:
Infamous second son
Horizon zero dawn
Bloodborne
Uncharted 4
Uncharted Lost legacy
Until Dawn
Nioh
Neir Automata
Rise of the Tomb Raider

These should keep you busy for some months.

EDIT:
keep an eye out for upcoming:
God of war
Red Dead Redemption 2

one more important thing to add to your list is

PS4 Slim records gameplay video in 720p only

while ps4 pro records gameplay in 1080p

4. Sony firmware 5.50 will offer supersampling in PS4 pro which will render at 4k and downscale to 1080p for 4k like graphics (digitalfoundary analyzed it, it was good)
one more thing many games were already optimized more for 1080p tvs on ps4 pro even without the supersampling forced by 5.5 update.


go for any cheap region u find it doesnt matter and make a US PSN account.

I am going with uncharted to start with

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
