Modern 4K games have almost 150x the pixels per frame of Space Invaders.

And the framerate has increased by... erm, no, decreased by 50%, in many cases.

Yet the push for 8K resolution, seems to be be getting started, with PS5 Pro rumors. The imbalance between the push for spatial resolution and 'temporal resolution' is quite ridiculous. But likely mostly about selling TVs.

I think it's because frame rate doesn't show up in screenshots, or even trailers in many cases since 30 fps or below is still standard for video.
