DX12 one API really shines here. There's virtually no difference as far as I can tell. This is a very pretty looking game. The nicest looking game on X1 by far.

daBUSHwhaka3608d ago

Certainly is a good looking game on X1.only encountered a few tears 4hours in.Really enjoying it.

GameNameFame3608d ago (Edited 3608d ago )

Except huge sacrifice to the resolution...

Best QB was able to do was do HUD on 1080p and game it self was 720P.

ShadowKnight3608d ago (Edited 3608d ago )

Wait I thought the Xbox one version was in 720P 30fps? Can't really tell the difference from looking on Youtube. It depends on your television. PC version should have an option to go over 1080P 60fps

kraenk123608d ago (Edited 3608d ago )

It should definitely look a lot better.

343_Guilty_Spark3608d ago

It's not 720p.

It's 4 720p images merged into one 1080p frame.

kraenk123608d ago (Edited 3608d ago )

I just read somewhere that the PC version is just upscaling from 720p. That's the true reason for the small differences!

Check:

What I found even worse is the fact that people who pre-ordered the X1 version to get the PC version won't be able to play it for the next week or more.

Eonjay3608d ago

Is this true. Thats actually really horrible if it is.

kraenk123608d ago

@eonjay

If you mean my last sentence check this

MasterCornholio3608d ago

Why do they do this?

PCs should be able to support a much higher resolution than 720P.

kraenk123608d ago

@Mastercornholio

Maybe that's what MS understands of a unified gaming platform..

MasterCornholio3608d ago

Either the PC version is just a copy & paste of the X1 version or Microsoft made Remedy adopt platform parity for the game.

I believe it was the former tough since the PC version was announced at the last minute.

Nowhere near as good looking as ryse. Not that i care. Enjoying the game anyway.

Artemidorus3608d ago

Total lies you can see the lesser shadows and non smooth lines in the shadows in the Xbox version on the video.

The main difference I saw was in the shadowed shot with the railing and wire hanging down. X1 had lots of jaggies to the shadow vs PC. Outside of that the differences felt minimal. Overall its a good looking game on both.

WilliamSheridan3608d ago (Edited 3608d ago )

Honestly I'm enjoying the game too much to nitpick, it's fun, looks great, plays great...

kraenk123608d ago (Edited 3608d ago )

I just read that the game on upscales from 720p on PC! Quite embarrassing if so!

Edit: found it

ninsigma3608d ago

That's horrendous if true. Hopefully its not. Anyone know if sli is supported?? Last time I trust ms and their windows store games anyway. Just resigning myself to playing the xb version now but it's been updating for nearly 4 hours. MS seriously need to get their downloads up to scratch.

kraenk123608d ago (Edited 3608d ago )

The only info that has been retracted is the bad performance the one guy had since it seems they have updated the game since then.

TheGreatGamer3608d ago

Kraenk don't quit your day job because arm dev isn't for you bud. Already confirmed this is not the case.

kraenk123608d ago

The game uses the same reconstruction technique as on XBox. You don't know what you're talking about.

Computersaysno3608d ago (Edited 3608d ago )

Wow, the image quality is still quite bad on PC. I expected the game to look much crisper but they must be still employing this blurry previous frame AA fudging even on a platform that is drowning with superior anti aliasing options and the performance to pull them off.

It must be inherent inside the game engine, and hasn't been sorted at all for the PC version. It's also plainly not the only thing wrong with the PC port. According to most reports and tests on it, it's totally borked and requires some serious work. Rushed.

kraenk123608d ago

Read the last sentence and you know the reason.

http://www.pcworld.com/arti...

Computersaysno3608d ago (Edited 3608d ago )

Mmmm I suspected as much the very instant I saw the comparison. The image quality was so bad for what is claimed as 1080p!

It is IMPOSSIBLE that the game cannot look quite a lot better and crisper on a PC running higher resolution if the assets are the same.

Unless of course the game isn't running at a higher resolution at all....

meche3343608d ago

You guys keep speaking of the blurryness. Its the look they wanted to go for. They wanted it to look cinematic

Computersaysno3608d ago (Edited 3608d ago )

You mean they WANTED to make a PC game that purposely incorporates mandatory upscaling in the game engine and you can't turn it off?

*Remedy sits around a table*

"Do you know what PC gamers will LOVE?"

"Forced upscaling so you can't have native resolution rendering! Hell Yeah! Let's do that!"

LOLZ plz don't troll

meche3343607d ago

@Computersaysno The upscaling rumor from 720p has already been debunked

You're still overlooking this Remedy sci-fi shooter, and its 89% cheaper on Steam Deck

Before Control Resonant launches, you need to play Remedy's mind-bending Quantum Break, one of the best third-person shooters around.

15 Xbox Games That Should Make the Multiplatform Jump

While there’s likely already a list behind closed doors, one can still speculate and offer logical suggestions for titles new and old that should find their way into the PlayStation and Switch libraries.

GamerRN706d ago

Single A games and live service games. Those make sense

S2Killinit706d ago

None of it makes sense. But its happening.

Ps5conehead706d ago

That’s up to Microsoft they want return on there investment. From buying up those publishers. That’s what there in business for. And they made a mistake putting day one exclusive on game pass. So now Microsoft wants to profit any way they can.its called buisness . Just like Sony putting games on pc a year are two after ps5 launch.
So if they can make money off PlayStation and Nintendo. They will do that. And I bet soon real soon they will release some aaa exclusives .and I bet one day it will be same day release

TheEroica706d ago

Sony gamers begging for Xbox games.... Who would've thunk it?

BISHOP-BRASIL706d ago

Yeah, because random site off the internet represents all Sony gamers, they have the letter of attorney and all...

S2Killinit706d ago

Lol what a spin. You dizzy?

AsunaYuukiTheFlash705d ago (Edited 705d ago )

We don’t care about shovelwares. Get that junk out of PS5

StormSnooper705d ago

More like MS begging to put their games on PlayStation.

TheEroica704d ago

Keep begging Sony gamers!

Friendlygamer706d ago

Some of these seem to be exclusive for lack of enthusiasm of the publisher rather than because of deals. A lot of cool indies skip ps for some reason like katana zero, el paso, elsewhere and gunbrela

S2Killinit706d ago

Even more indies skip xbox. We know that right?

Friendlygamer706d ago

Quality over quantity, Microsoft got some really interesting and curated niche games on their machines, maybe in part because of gamepass

S2Killinit706d ago

Quality and MS are not things you bring up in same sentence.

shinoff2183706d ago (Edited 706d ago )

Alot of indies skip xbox to. It goes round and round. Personally I think your off base on that but no need to have the argument.

Friendlygamer706d ago

Between katana zero, valheim, Battletech, el passo... I don't feel off base. maybe ps got a million of light novel games that will never release on Xbox but like I've said, I'm talking about niche games highlights, the 10%.

  Heck, it's probably thanks to Microsoft that the s.t.a.l.k.e.r games came to console ps included, meanwhile Sony backwards compatibility continues to be extremely anemic.

And I'm sure most ps5 users are happy to ignore these games and just play wathever new 3rd person action game is trending but it's cool that Microsoft gives some love to smaller audiences and software preservation

shinoff2183705d ago

Again your off base just to be snide. All it's showing though is your ignorance.

One light novels wtf is that even. Ps has plenty of pretty damn good indies.

Speaking of indies and ms being responsible. You know F.I.S.T. of course you do alot of you guys just support gamepass. Well here's a history of Sony being responsible for helping indies. Look up the China project from Sony.

Lastly lol your ignorance showing again. Sony has plenty of games. Personally third person is better then first anyway but that's besides the point. Sony gets so many games that xbox doesn't get because yall don't support the games. Jrpgs being a great example. I personally am not into every Sony first party game. Alot of us aren't. On the other side you don't get to eat often so you gobble up everything. Me personally God of War not my cup, etc. For me I'm into jrpgs and ms just can't touch Sony on those. Again because the Xbox base doesn't support it. Devs dont wanna waste their time or money. Hit me up when falcom develops a game over there.

Speaking of third person narrative games. Aren't yall drooling over hellblade 2. The first one was Sony exclusive at one point. Another not my cup game. Showing we don't have to fall in line and agree we love everything Sony puts out. The facts are they sell though unlike elsewhere(not nintendo)

StormSnooper705d ago

You are same person as GamerRN, yes?

Abnor_Mal706d ago

They really think PlayStation fans would want to play Redfall? Pfft.

Personally nothing on that list would be any game I’d want to play.

TwoPicklesGood706d ago

I’d absolutely love Hellblade 2, Palworld, and Quantum Break on ps5 as I’m sure tons of others would too. There’s nothing wrong with wanting games from another console and its sad that people try to act like they aren’t interested in them.

shinoff2183705d ago

While indont agree with the games. I agree with the point. Your not wrong.

DarXyde706d ago

Sunset Overdrive makes very good sense. Palworld might.

Don't know about the others. Hellblade II does make sense given the original launched on PS4 first. Quantum Break was a massive letdown for me. I absolutely hated the whole TV show thing and I don't think anyone should have to relive that on modern hardware.

Now that Remedy owns Control, it’s time to reclaim Quantum Break

Alan Wake 2 studio Remedy Entertainment has reclaimed the rights to Control, and now sci-fi hit Quantum Break deserves the same treatment.

Petebloodyonion722d ago

Totally agree with that especially when Quantum Break has several references to Alan Wake and Alan Wake make allusions to QB.
I do believe that MS and Remedy can work things out and MS has usually been nice to devs and publishers regarding IP.

Obscure_Observer722d ago

They can't "reclaim" what was never theirs.

Petebloodyonion722d ago

I’m sure we can settle for purchase from MS the IP.

Lightning77722d ago

MS is not doin anything with it. Plus they're doing a multiverse of their own so Remedy needs the IP.

If MS wants to have exclusive let it be timed for 6 months then go to other platforms. MS seems to be, let's say, generous with some if their games as of late.

Or have QB2 be multiplat from the jump, put it on GP. Keeping QB2 as an exclusive is kinda weird these days.

Obscure_Observer722d ago (Edited 722d ago )

@Petebloodyonion

"I’m sure we can settle for purchase from MS the IP."

Good luck

@Lightning77

"MS is not doin anything with it."

Japan Studio is dead nd Sony isn´t doing anything with Bloodborne either! Yet I can 100% guarantee that there´s a far bigger demand for a sequel, remake or even a remaster for that game from both PS5 and PC gamers.

That been said, why don´t you ask Sony tol sell the IP to Fromsoftware now that according to rumors, they bought Elden Ring from Bandai?

ZwVw722d ago (Edited 722d ago )

Reclaim? That would mean that they actually owned the ip at one point, which they never did (MS always has). Apples & oranges. Remedy always owned the Control ip (just not the publishing), as they have with Alan Wake.

About as likely as them getting the Max Payne rights from Rockstar.

mastershredder722d ago (Edited 722d ago )

Sending you game to a publisher does not mean they get "rights to own it " unless that was part of the contract (monetary/ strategic reasons). 505 was the publisher they worked with to publish and distribute it, it dos not mean that 505 flat out "owned" anything, clearly they did have a special arrangement that made them open to limit their publishing rights. and so here we are and big whoop

Jingsing722d ago (Edited 722d ago )

Yeah get Quantum Break PS5, only if you put it on disc with all the associated movie material.

isarai722d ago

I mean they got the Alan Wake IP back from MS, so I feel like they could get QB back as well
