The latest W7s actually beat W9s for input lag with Leo Bodnar tester. Only by about 3 or 4ms, but still :)
@PeaSFor
For gaming, PC & TV you made a sound decision. W7s are where it's at for gaming, I plan to pick one up for my new gaming room redesign later in the year (unless something else crazy fast comes along to rival them).
Sony W7 models are a really good as far as price vs response goes. The W705B scored the highest in terms of input lag of any TV screen hdvtest has ever reviewed/tested and has full 4:4:4 chroma reproduction in [GAME] mode.
This year's Bravias are still the ones to beat for gaming - unrivaled input lag.
Wow. Sorry to be harsh but that's just utter garbage.
If there's anything spilling over here it's something a little closer to home... cleanup in aisle you!
@Kavorklestein
So good you said it twice?
It's a CPU code profiler, it's hardly "read all about it" type stuff, is it? But tbh for me yeah, it's far more interesting and important than half the stuff that gets discussed these days. If you want to learn about this kind of thing for yourself instead of just sitting back and only reading what's put in front of you, maybe you should follow certain SCEE/SN Systems devs on twitter, google...
40 hours and getting old? I played the alpha for 18 hours and it never got old, in fact I had a hard time dealing with the fact that it sat there looking at me and could no longer be played and explored. Should point out that I didn't even look at the crucible at all, just exploration, loot gathering, levelling my character and gear and strikes on both difficulties available.
If it still worked now I'd be there playing it, not typing this!
Based on pr...
"as far as X1 is concerned with DX12, it' about the extra tools that make development easier."
Actually, not so much. Tools are of course important, but dx12 improvements won't be due to a toolset. It's not extra tools that will make things easier dev-side, it's streamlining, simplicity and an end to a tangled web of nested hacks, patches and work-arounds that currently hamper progress when attempting to eke out performance via the One's dx11 imp...
@Team_Litt "So tell me exactly how it is weird..."
If we're looking for weird, what actually was weird was the One's troublesome implementation of dx11 present in the first place. That was partly due to the majority of the team that should have been working on that side of things being tasked with the nuts and bolts of making core One features actually work for launch. Instead it was apparently some windows team or other at the helm, doing their best but fal...
One thing that has improved massively on the ps4 side fairly recently, and has been showcased to certain dev studios by a Sony internal team, is the latest and much improved version of the CPU profiler. Huge leaps ahead of what they had available before, it allows for much better fine-tuning of routines, far more streamlined utilisation of the available CPU cores, with improved vizualisation for analysis.
Same. Had the Gamars VCD attachment, too. Also had the 5" screen for the gamecube. It's hard to see who might want this thing for ps4 though... these days, like most people, I enjoy the huge displays we're now used to.
360, ps3, ps4 and pc. not xbox one.
Wasn't really that interested in destiny, wasn't even sure what it was 100%. Obtained code for Early Access Alpha and was up into the small hours 4 nights in a row, thoroughly addicted, scoured every inch of Old Russia, levelled my character and weapons, obtained better armour, etc. etc. just could not put it down. Only thing I didn't do was PvP, not at all interested.
Destiny will be GotY this year and I wouldn't bet against sequels branching out and refining...
@angelsx @TheGreatAndPowerful It is targeting 30fps on both xbox one and ps4.
Agreed but not really expecting the storm.
What's more interesting is how will the guys who say they love Kinect (and the ability to snap and all that while playing games) react to these new breed of games that lock out the Kinect 2.0 completely?
Essentially, running these games will gimp the all-in-one system they are now happily enjoying. It won't be a toggle switch "Play Destiny at 792P with Kinect/Play Destiny at 900P Kinect locked out"...
@pumblechook The beta is just something to go along with the marketing deal between Activision and PlayStation. That involves ps3/4 branded advertising and exclusive content on Sony's platform. The beta early access is part of the deal.
Also, if the beta is only a week long or over a few weekends like other betas have been, 4 extra days might not be as insignificant as it could seem at first. It's all relative.
This score is definitely right at the upper end of the review scores so far. It's a shame but I'll probably have to put this off until it's for sale at a discount.
@Neon I had the same - fine the first time I played a game, but after that my ps4 saw my new save and the cloud save as being from different consoles. So manual cloud saving was the only way possible by clicking those notifications. It did it with every game I had set to use the cloud save feature (Watch_dogs, Transistor, Child of Light, Tomb Raider, Second Son, etc., etc.).
But today, after the update, it's fixed, tried it out twice with Watch_Dogs and no notifications! ...
"Perhaps the X1 is the lead platform and is the absolute priority, and the 360 version just gets scaled down and down until it's playable?"
The business decision re: 360 version will not have been taken lightly and is highly unlikely to be a minimal-effort quick port with IP as strong and important as Forza. When you consider there's an existing codebase on 360 that's working and proven, it's very unlikely they would abandon that in favour of somethi...
