you dont get it do you

if you have the sme hardware over years you WILL UNLOCK potential and you have to to get better results.

it doesnt matter if its a pc a gameboy or a coffemaschine.

the console cycle has a fix architecture and hence it will get optimised EXACTLY like a ps3 hardware.

the only difference is that they have a known environment to start from.

pc titles dont go that route since the hardware ge...

it doesnt matter where you develop.

Every dev no matter if pc or console, innovates over the way things are handled softwarewise, Timothy lothes for example brought fxaa into the game eliminating the need for hardware AA by calculating edge detection and smoothing on a shader side.

You ALLWAYS unlock potential over time since the market demands for better graphics and gameplay, and hence you have to RETHINK how you handle stuff.

im pretty sure we will see new platforms to stream to and new ways of sharing (groups,tags,etc)

its also very likely to get a better share format like png`s since the screenshots represent the sony platform

this service is brand new and like every feature or app it will get improved and expanded over time

"Isn't that just the same as sliding a PS2 game into a slim PS3?"

jup thats why tehy had BC in the launch Phat version for 600 bucks,
and removed it afterwards to get a costdown.

and i all seriousness.

noone needs BC, this bullshit is only a few people that wanna get heard on the internet, couse almost EVERYONE who has the old games has the old hardware......

i know i know it will die some day, but even ...

due to the cell architecture its almost impossible to emulate the game or even run the code native.

every ps3 game would need a massive rework to run native on a ps4 architecture.
thats why sony choose to let gakai stream the games to your ps4 by runnign it on cell server clusters.

jup.

the main reason is to have an OS that is dedicated to gaming and low level.
no mass compatible windows driver clusterf....k or services noone ever needs for gaming.

that would bring alot of performance to the games without altering anything on the hardware side

maybe more like blackmarket traders, buyout stuff where its available and resell it to those in need for ridiculous prices.

of course noone "needs" a console but you get the point.

dont wanna sound like a dick or something but people sell it to make profit

they sell a new item not used or really owned by the seller.
i really think people should pay trade taxes like any retailer does (or powerseller).

actually i would love see ebay to stop any auction of products that arent release and block it for 2 more days on launch day.

this is seriously not ok that some privat persons makes a profit on someelses product. <...

even harddrives and ram have a failurerate of 1-5% out of the box. its just how mass production highend electronics work (or dont).

at least both ms and sony are very straight and honest responding officially and making sure everyone gets a replacement asap

happy gaming everyone

i played 6 hours now and all i can say is

DAMNNNNN

this game is HUUUGE, and every corner looks so unique im totally stunned....

the micro details are astonishing

Lets see what happens,

You can bet your ass the lawyers at dice are very busy atm. Reassuring the contracts

Ms just destroyed alot of possible customers for the bf4 launch.
You can bet your ass that ea is not that pro ms in the future

4688d ago 4 agree0 disagreeView comment

You know whats funny.

Bf4 might win the cod war this time
Cod players are mainly on the xbox
Te userbase got alienated and ALOT of early adopters will come to the ps4 now

Those countrys spared out are high income countrys with a huge early adopter rate.

Nice headstart for bf4 and ps4

you have no clue.....

console prices are decided MONTHS before an announcement.
the whole production pipeline and contractors have to fit in.

ms and sony made the price on theyre own calculation and marketing.

Its called business, and yes i work in highend consumer productions with very stiff competition, same problem same approach

"Microsoft Blames Gaming Media For Xbox One Consumer Rage
"

i as enraged WHILE i watched the reveal show, and that was after 30 min allready....

please please please (dear americans) dont support such business behaviour, we can only fight it by NOT buying (supporting) it.

i addressed americans because they usually eat anything apple,google or microsoft says

No matter hoe it works out in the end,
this still means that we are bound to the will of
Microsoft about the price for a used game, or how we trade in general.

What still makes me wonder is how will a rented game or a game you hand to a friend work out in the end ?

do we have to pay dirrectly to ms?
Are we forced to use a retailer to switch games?

i use a very nice community forum to trade games for example without ...

no im serious, we saw a 2 car replay with added render detail.

We have that TODAY guys.
it is not that impressive to bump up the details that much in a slowmo animation only rendering 1 or 2 cars on a narrow streetview.

comeon, think guys.

the detail was nice but it only comes down to the effort you put into the model in creation and level of detail for closeups.

the slower the footage and maintaining a steady fix ca...

sorry this doesnt even come close to beeing rendered, its not very impressive. It does look good but absolutly capable in realtime, seriously

how would anyone even think of it beeing rendered ?
sorry it doesnt look that good to be mistaken as a render....
