Then you’re misremembering a lot of stuff

This tv came out around the same time as the ps5 (Nov of 2020). A few features came in a later update, but it is 4k/120 out of the box. You couldn’t get a better tv at the time.

The 800 was never advertised as 120, this is the first model.

I mean the true 120hz, not the upscaled crap.

They came out the same time hdmi got the bandwidth capacity, so before that, it wasn’t even possible.

I partly use Rtings.com for my info, and they test everything.

When 4k/120 TVs came out, their Bravia was the best midrange you could get. Price doubled to get anything better.

Idk, something like Dead Space wouldn’t work as a written narrative.

A video game allows a lot more space and doesn’t limit introspection at all.

The only thing that would maybe be better as vague would be eldtritch horror type stuff, that isn’t supposed to be able to be explained or “visualized”.
