    Seriously, have you seen games like Infamous: Second Son?

    and that is an early game before developers get to know the hardware inside out.
    I don't think he's saying that it's impossible to have the graphics look better than they are on PS4, just that it would be literally impossible to give PS4 DX11 support because the Title to the topic was pretty badly worded.

    Maybe so but when you read what i was saying you can see i'm talking about Sony using OpenGL and as someone pointed out SE is looking into it
