Boost mode is on the way... (Destiny)

Right but here is the thing. That can often make the experience less smooth. If you look at FF15, the PS4 boost gives you an increase in frame rate, but that increase puts the frame rate at between 40 and 50. If your frame rate is not a multiple of the refresh rate, motion will not look smooth if the game is v synced, and if it isn't you will get tearing. This is why locked 60 or locked 30 is so important, or else having some kind of adaptive sync like g sync.

Good point. I haven't seen anything running in boost mode myself, so everything I know about it is 2nd or 3rd hand. They discussed it on the Bombcast, and were mostly talking about examples where the original release had significant slowdown in areas, and how Boost mode seemed to improve those areas.
