It should have PS4 BC. PS3 BC would be nice but if this is problem now, it will be later on same platform too. Some PS4 games already do 4K, some do 1080p60 with good quality assets. There is no reason to do remasters as in case of PS2 or even PS3 for PS4. And if you count all the remasters + PS4 original games, its nice library with modern look which shouldnt be overlooked in PS5 gen.
But if they do BC, they can release it next year without problems. It would be then PS4 Pro 2 with exclusive titles.
Switch 2.0 with Tegra X2 would be great. There are lot of games on switch, which have frame rate problems. If there is Switch 1.0 for reduced price and Switch 2.0 for actual price of 1.0, I am absolutely ok with that. Nintendo did that with Nintendo 2DS/3DS. Nintendo 3DS New is different story.
Butterfly effect has nothing to do with it. Pro has different GPU than base model. It has new features from new Vega architecture, whereas original PS4 GPU is very old 7950 radeon gpu. You are right, half of CUs are turned off in base mode. But thats for compatibility reasons. XOX has newer GPU but not that much. It also derives from Vega (whereas Pro is derived more from Polaris - but like AMD said, Polaris and Vega is term of feature set not architecture generation). XOX has more CUs (42 vs...
If there is backward compatible PSVR2 on backward compatible PS5, that would be nobrainer for me :-)
MS did better job in figuring out all the bottlenecks than Sony with Pro. Great job EPIC and MS! In terms of power, Pro is profiling itself like 1440-1800p machine whereas X 1800-2160p machine. Its really great achievment in both camps considering both machines have only old Jaguar arch CPU with moderate frequency. Im curious how both companies will spec their next gen machines!
You are right, all these cries about only xbox one poor optimalization are nonsense. Digital foundry clearly stated, that even on XOX and Pro you dont get 60 fps but around 40. And they also stated, that ps4 is around 30 fps, while XO is slightly below 30 fps. Ant XO is trying to maintain near 30 by lowering resolution. This is absolutely in line with hardware specs. Nothing strange here. Maybe whole game is poorly optimized, but on all platforms, not only on base XO.
I cant agree. PS is doing great and XB is doing ok. Next generation will be much more service oriented. There can be more subscription like xbox game pass and psNow for any device (PC, tv with controller, handheld,....). Sony is doing really really well. But look at PS2->PS3 transition. It was matter of months...when Kaz showed price....and MS took lead. This gen MS tried similar stuff with price, obligatory kinect, etc...and even now they are try to control the damage made. When new gener...
Wow, thats impressive! I thought, that tegra X1 was bad move (was hoping for X2), but Nintendo again and again shows, that hardware is not that much important.
Yeah, PUBG seems most realistic to me also. EA has lot of IPs. It makes sense also, but it will cost huuuuge amount of money.
Or MS can buy Sony and rebrand all PS4 to XBox PS edition. That would be huge success. Over 100 million of sold xboxes.
I bought it second hand for 25USD. The game was stellar! But a little short. I think for 40 USD (like ratchet or U4 lost legacy) even reviews could be better and it would get more praise from players too.
At the end of the game I had feeling....And now everything begins! I was really excited...but it was an end :-(
So cars and courses every month? Great !
Oh, so I got it ! :-)
Thats true only if its scalable down. If you make engine, which will be so so runnable on xox cpu, you will have hard times optimize it for xo. In the end you can have much much more ugly and much less functional game with much less quality on xo. But I think its simply more like pc development. And you have advantage, that you can target few configs - ps4, pro, xo, xox and you are done. On PC you have to cover lot of config combinations (2core slow cpu, old gpu -> 8core fast cpu, highend ...
LOL :-)))
Finally Monza! Now Circuit de la Sarthe, 2 random models of F1 cars and I will be super happy :-)
Theres no turning tables this gen. But MS can make a great start for next gen. They have it all. Good leader, theyre listening to people again and they know what mistakes they made and want to correct it. If Sony doesnt make BC (PS5 -> PS4), it will be harder tho.
Yeah! Its sad ps4 supports only 4 controllers. So 6 players in play link is great addition!
Wow, given the fact how was Wii widely popular in families (lot of families still have one), ps4 is doing very very well.
