4K resolution has been seen in television and movies now, but the thing that remains, are video games. What will the 4K resolution look like in video games is what all the gamers are wondering, but what we do know, is that it would be amazing. There is no specific 'disc' for 4K resolution media yet, so it is currently being distributed in USB drives and hard drives, but there sure will be a disc for the 4K resolution, and we are waiting to see what it will be. Whatever it will be, one thing is for sure, it is the evolution of home media.
