If you haven't got this game it is another good reason to get it. I am still playing through and love this game.

VerminSC1661d ago

I love how insomniac keeps supporting the game to push its visuals and frame rate. Usually it takes developers 6+ months to release something!

SullysCigar1661d ago

Crazy, isn't it? It's like either they don't sleep or they get home and carry on working on the game for fun - I don't know how they do it lol

z2g1661d ago (Edited 1661d ago )

this is not hard to do. its just adjusting the fps to be evenly divided by the refresh so don't double or skip frames vs refresh rate - most likely done by a frame cap. this literally probably took them a few days. we have to do this stuff kind of stuff where I work pretty often for media to run on various types of screens properly. .

z2g1661d ago (Edited 1661d ago )

just performance caps to make the fps evenly divide by the refresh to reduce judder. lets not get too carried away here. lots of games have had similar/related patches on the gen 9 consoles to accommodate 120hz.

I'd be impressed if they got the game itself to run at 120fps.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH1661d ago

It plays fine in 60fps so for me that's the sweet spot.

Babadook71661d ago

Yah. I think DF praised the almost locked 60 FPS.

masterfox1661d ago

Nice, still Im pretty sure these TVs have an option to reduce the refresh rate, if not that sucks.

Bob Dole1661d ago

I have an insignia from 9 years ago (a cheap one at that) and there's an option to turn down the refresh rate. I feel like in this day and age there's really no excuse for a manufacturer to not have this option included.

masterfox1661d ago

Wow Bod Dole reply and Ted Cruz is also here , N4G is getting very political :D, on topic, yes thats why it shouldnt be any issue to play the game , so is super awesome Insomniac take their time to look into this and give temporal fix. ;)

How ‘Assassin’s Creed Shadows’ Did Dual Protagonists Right (And Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Didn’t)

Shaz from Pixel Swish: “Both Insomniac Games and Ubisoft have given us games with dual protagonists. However, where Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart’s duo feel exactly the same, Assassin’s Creed Shadow’s Yasuke and Naoe feel unique.”

They are exactly the same because it's another version of Ratchet within the multiverse. It's not Ratchet himself or a female version of him but it's someone else who's taken his place / role within that Universe.

The_Hooligan284d ago

Agreed! A better comparison take would have been between AC Syndicate and AC Shadows.

gold_drake286d ago

with ratchet, they are the same, they play the exact same.

im not even sure why this needs to be said, we all know.

isarai286d ago

They weren't trying to make them play differently, literally 2 versions of the same person. Wo ur saying they failed at something they never set out to do 🤨

Profchaos284d ago

What in the f who even thought of that concept and connect these two games that released years apart and have nothing to do with each other.

You could of said fuel protagonist vs other times where AC did duel protagonist or a game like GTA v that allows for on the fly switching

Like how desperate are they for clicks

Levii_92284d ago

Rivet's character was more useless and forced than Abby from TLOU2.

MULTIVERSESSSSSSS!!! Remember that trend people lol? Also remeber how a beloved vilain Dr Neferious was reduced to a braindead wimp and a parody of himself?

P_Bomb284d ago

“MULTIVERSESSSSSSS!!! Remember that trend people lol?”

It’s still going on. Especially @ Marvel.

Our First Look At FSR 4? AMD's New AI Upscaling Tech Is Impressive

DigitalFoundry : Running on AMD's new Radeon 9070-series GPUs at CES 2025, a machine learning upscaling demo of Sony's Ratchet and Clank is almost certainly FSR 4 AI upscaling - and as it's running on Ratchet and Clank - our 'go to game' for AI upscaling quality tests, we could really put the tech through its paces. Oliver and Alex are at the show - and this is their report.

They're saying better than PSSR! Impressive.. guess it's really close to Nvidia's solution. I'm interested in seeing how the 9070XT or whatever their highest end card will perform, we already know AMD are only aiming for the mid range (or upper mid range) with these new cards but it will still be interesting to see how they compare to a 5070Ti on price/performance.

But certain apps don't play well with AMD that do with Nvidia cards, shame because these cards could be great/price performance.. but not an issue for pure gamers.

Visually it may well be similar to DLSS, but they were quick to point out that they do not have any actual performance data at this point. Time will tell, but it is definitely promising and good to see them impressing.

Interesting. Since AMD is largely behind PSSR, they’ve now sort of have two different upscalers in play. Curious to see how it all pans out.
