I probably should've mentioned that I have expirience with 3D modelling and animation tools.
Motion blur is easily achieved via post processing. Your example of framerate dips is pretty much accurate however it's not nessessarily the framerate that makes it look stuttery. The real problem here are the framerate changes (that's why I said it had to be absolutely stable). If the framerate varies in the range of 24-30 (the more fps the smaller the effect) our brain q...
I'm wondering how a game would look like at a constant 24fps. It might add to the cinematic feel of the game however it would need to be stable at any time or it'll look horrible.
@Spurg: It doesn't need to follow any trend. Every game designer should be free to make whatever type of game he wants. The diversity is what keeps me interessted in games.
It's just the difference between GB and GiB. I'll switch from giga to kilo to explain the difference.
1kB = 1 kilobyte = 1000 bytes
1KiB = 1 kibibyte = 1024 bytes
So giga is decimal while gibi is binary.
Now the important part: The hard drive is labelled in gigabyte but most systems display the volume in gibibyte.
So when it shows 465GB it actually means 465 GiB which equals 500 GB.
I don't think it's Kojima's decision. It's probably a deal between Konami and Sony/MS. I agree with you nonetheless. It's very likely that a complete edition will come out for both consoles a year later including Ground Zeroes, Phantom Pain and the complete dlc.
You will be able to tell the difference. What they did with Ryse was lowering the resolution to be able to improve the quality of the lighting among other things. So yeah they improved the overall visuals of the game. But at the same quality 1080p will always look better than 900p.
And your preference of 900p at 60fps over 1080p at 30fps is a weird example. 900p at 60fps is actually harder to achieve than 1080p at 30fps. It pushes around 50% more pixels per second.
Depends on the game. I guess In most cases the majority of devs will sacrifice framerate first.
@aiBreeze: You can bet that those "exclusive" missions won't stay exclusive forever when they realise that they can earn some extra bugs with them.
While the fighting games you listed are all great, Street Fighter is still the best imo. Also you'll be able to buy the Ultra Street Fighter 4 upgrade for $15 if you own SSFIV or SSFIV AE and get 5 new characters, new stages and new modes.
The only time you couldn't upgrade was from SFIV to SSFIV and even there SSFIV didn't came out as a full price title. Most of the SF fans appreciate the upgrades and it's a good thing for competative play.
F...
That's the thing we can't be sure about at this point. The graphical showcase of the Division was really amazing. The amount of detail is unbelievable. But that's not enough to make a game fun.
I need more details on gameplay, story and setting to be really interessted in the game rather than only the engine.
Too bad that some facts are wrong. The RSX didn't have 1.8TFLOP/s. I think it was 176GFLOP/s. And the PS4 doesn't have an analog AV-output.
@Bennibop: "I_am_batman have you learnt nothing from the last few months? No mention of resolution when connect to x1 is usually the developer trying to hide it is not 1080p! It seems that people have got their head in the sand."
Maybe you should read my comment again. I wasn't saying wether it'll be 1080p or not because that would be pure sceculation at that point. Until the resolution is confirmed I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that's all....
Who needs game announcements when you can have an argument about which game deserves a meaningless award?
I'm glad to see a slightly different top 5 games of the generation list to be honest. Don't get me wrong The Last of Us is an excellent game but it doesn't have to be in everybodies top 5. All of the listed games are there for a good reason.
To be fair no one mentioned the X1 resolution so it could be 1080p too.
I'm wondering what the system requirements for this game are/ will be. Racing games can look really great even with mid range hardware if it's optimized well enough. Look at GT5/6. They still look very good on PS3 hardware even though they're not in the same league as this or Driveclub.
"This game is more like 2.5/5 = 7.5 outta 10 the A.I. is bad lol 4/5 < exposed"
What?
I agree. He made the show almost unwatchable for me. He didn't seem interessted in the games at all. The only thing he did was making the show feel like a 3 hours long awkward moment.
The few game announcements were pretty good. But other than that this show was probably one of the worst I've seen in my life. 3 hours of stupid jokes, some stoned rappers, horrible live music. After watching this show I'm not surprised that gamers have a bad reputation.
Wow what a great joke. Never heard that one before./s
On Topic: I can't wait to try the new characters out. I'm also excited about the new modes.
