MS tools has gotten better according to resent articles, so yeah I can see ESRAM becoming less of an issue in the next 4-7 years. The one thing XB1 will fall behind is Anti Aliasing. PS4 will probably continue to use a mix between MSAA 2-4 while the XB1 resorts to using blur and shimmering inducing FXAA, and SMAA to hide bandwidth deficiencies.
3 disagrees already? What exactly is there to disagree about? Multiple developers already stated tools are getting better and the pe...
Yeah I'm a high texture and frame rate guy myself. I mean whats the point of having 1080P with PS2 style textures?
I want sharper textures and 60 FPS, I was kinda let down regarding the visuals. Some stages I was like wow this looks good, other stages appeared to lack anisotropic filtering creating blurry textures in city levels. Most of the static objects in this game had low res textures, like cars and props. While the forest stages had me at hello, so yeah I think the PS4 5 GBs of ram can make The Last of Us textures look closer to Crysis 2/3, or how the cut scenes look.

The company as a whole lost $15 billion in two years and laid off over 5000 employees and counting, closed and sold business divisions, and closed the majority of their stores to decrease quarterly losses. Sony has over $19 billion in cash but with $14 billion in debt. If Sony lose another $15 billion in two years like they have done the previously two years the company as a whole will be bought out by patent miners (Apple, Samsung ect).
Sony as a whole is not doing good no m...
It looks good but I do like the extra crispness of 900P and higher. I can see pixels on my 60 inch plasma when displayed in 720P. My 46 inch LED 720P looks good but my 60 inch is my main gaming station.
Please update the game engine to 900 or 1080P! If Ryse and Thief can run at 900P I see no reason why this game can't. Also for season two bring back TJ Combo and Kim Wu, two of my favorites from KI Gold.
But wait, what about all of the hack writers out there saying this will be the last generation of consoles?
@ GEOFF900
Sony will sell any brand if they have to, its business, nothing more nothing less. If you purchased something on credit and found out later you can't afford, what do you do? You take it back or sell it. If times are tough and you need money, what do you do? You sell your personal belonging in order to survive.
If Sony runs out of money or PS4 money is not enough to keep the big wigs mansions clean, they will and have been laying off employees a...
@ GEOFF900 and Fz6solider
Sony may need Playstation but it wouldn't stop them from selling the brand in order to survive. Heck, over the last couple of months Sony has already made some cuts to their super talented first party developers and probably forced resignation of some key upper management employees. Basically what I'm saying, when comes down to the wire not even the Playstation brand will be safe from being dropped or sold despite what upper management might ...
Agree, Sony would probably sell their division first given their current situation.
They should have kept the original Delsin! Current Delsin just comes off as an goofy young punk trying his best to be cool. A lot like the emo Dante from the last Devil May Cry,except Infamous is awhole better overall.
Another one bites the dust!
I thought Sony said the PlayStation division wouldn't be affected by layoffs? Maybe that billion dollar lost is hurting Sony more than they led on. Or Sony simply hired too many people to launch the PS4 in over 50 markets in just couple of months.
"I hate stereotypical teenage characters and whiny valley-girl accents"
Right on point, maybe because I'm now in my 30's I don't care to hear people talk and act like Delsin and Fetch. I know its entertainment and Troy Baker has obviously turned out some epic performances, but after the firs hour I was done with Delsin. To me Delsin voice is no different then someone scratches on a chalk board. Minus the voice acting this game would probably be a 9 out o...
It's corny, not up The Last of Us or Metal Gear standard. I know its meant to be corny with the typical late teens early
twenties attitude, it just annoys me every time Delsin open his mouth. Infamous voice acting delivery is similar to the last Devil May Cry game, damn good action game and decent story after I got over how cheesy the main characters are.
But like I said good game, I would rate Infamous at least 85 percent so far. It's funny I got 7 disagrees...
So half as many polygons as Ryse with 960X1080P in MP? And people got on Ryse for 1600X900P resolution, polygon reduction from 150K to 80K and more shaders to look even better during optimization? I thought Ryse was the best looking next gen game until I purchased Infamous 2nd Son, which takes the cake as graphics king for now.
The voice acting is kinda bad and generic but a damn good game. My progress is only 23% complete but so far I would rate Infamous 2nd Son a 8.5 out of 10.
And the generation before last, I've been hearing this crap since 2000 or around the time PS2 launched. Hack editors/publishers who want hits to their sites.
Maybe Konami can stop being lazy and at least move MG 5 PT up to 900P! 720P just seem a bit low for game made with last gen specs in mind. Konami has twice as many cores, 3 times the bandwidth, 10 times the usable ram, over 5 times floating point performance, and over 3 times the triangle output as the X360. And the best they could do was 720P at 60 rather then X360 30? To top it off MG5 GZ can be beaten in 6 minutes! What the hell Konami?
@DragonKnight
I didn't mentioned anything about overcoming PS4 advantages, in fact I highlighted the PS4 bandwidth and AA advantages. Any who I can see how MS can reduce the gap when there's an decent performance. Just look at last generation, PS3 stronger CPU, weaker GPU when compared to X360. In order to overcome PS3 early days and some what lately multi platform ports developers had to create new software tools that shifted rendering responsibilities from the PS3 G...
