As much hate as this game gets, I loved it. It is probably ranked number 4 on my favorite games of 2014 so far. Definitely worth 20 bucks!
I used the Samsung 840 EVO 500GB SSD Drive. Loading times are so good! I am going to try and compare it to a 7200 hdd this weekend to see if there are any differences.
Such a tease, I can't wait to see more!
So the entry point is the issue: the two bridges meet and enter at one point but have to wait on each other for access? That makes sense why it would be good and bad. Good in that they can access the same pointers but bad in that they have to share entry even when they are not updating the same bits.
You can get over 1080p/60fps on iPad games. It all depends on how you code the game and your priorities for the experience of the game. If the device has a CPU that is made in the last 10 years and has a GPU that is capable of 1080p output, developers have the ability to achieve that result. Granted how much you can do on each clock cycle depends on the systems power and how well you optimize your code.
I predict we will see Perfect Dark in some capacity. Hoping the rumor about a 3rd person adventure game are true.
I like the idea of Gears being about Emergence Day. Just read the description of it, it is screaming to be made into a game!
"Emergence Day or E-Day was a swift, full-scale, coordinated and unprecedented planet-wide assault on the surface of Sera initiated by the Locust Horde. Every single major human city on the surface of Sera was attacked from the subterranean, using both bio-engineered weapons and stolen human technology. All breaches were along the ground line, in w...
Interesting comment. Is he saying DDR5 isn't ideal for certain memory patterns? Is it a latency issue.
@Rashid: From looking at the diagrams the accessibility paths are unique, is that not the case? It is the same memory but it looks like GPU/CPU can access simultaneously, the bridges do not cross. GPU enters from one direction "at full speed", CPU from the other bridge "which is much slower". I would think for Unified Memory to truly work well this wo...
I still need it, yes. But I can wait. Half Life 2 took forever as well and it was worth it.
Lol, Game Journalists are like kindergarteners, have to explain every little thing to them. And even then most of them don't get it.
Wonder if this means it will come to X1 too. Guessing it will.
I hope they have witty qte's to interact with them.
I am excited for Twitter, HBOGO, Showtime, Plex, and Vevo. The rest are gravy.
Nice, it is my Game of the Year! At least so far. So much fun.
Definitely excited for all 5 of those! Especially Below!
Halo man. Definitely Halo!
Both awesome games, but I already own them. We need day 1 digital deals : ).
Let's say your game is running badly and is hard to control because frames are dropping. Which option would you choose to fix it.
1. Remove particle effects and AI.
2. Change the physics clock cycle so it isn't as responsive.
3. Lower the resolution of the game and upscale it. It will look almost identical and you will get almost double the clock cycles from doing so.
Polygon are masters at click bait haha. Using misleading headlines to rise a stir and get users to see their ads. Personally not going to click on it and encourage them, especially since we all know the reserves exist on all Xbox One's.
Definitely agree with all of those! I am hyped but they need more coverage.
