Every second that passes PC hardware gets better and emulation gets better so that eventually, emulation on PC easily beats original hardware.
This is evidence right here. Give it another couple of years and people will be emulating most PS3 games in glorious 4K smoothly and it'll be another reason why PC is an amazing platform. Dreamcast, Gamecube and PS2 emulation is fantastic. It's the ultimate gaming platform.
The point is it'll still look better than in less than 10K.
The underlying point is also perhaps that with PC, when technology advances after just a few years then your older games still stand up better and can be run better than they had been before.
Do I complain that 10 year old PC games for example can now easily be ran in 4K but don't have the texture resolution of games today?
No, because they still look marvelous and it&#...
Define success.
In sales, GT Sport will probably sell the best. I doubt it will be the best game though. It's not been the best console racer since GT4 in 2005. Too little attention on what matters and too much focus on what doesn't
Forza 7 has some visual downgrades on various circuits well documented now on the Forza forums. It's probably compromises made to allow for the weather system or get it to run at 4K 60FPS on Xbox One X.

You won't see a big difference now on many games at all but most people buy a CPU these days to last quite a long time. Eventually more game engines will transition to using more than 4 cores properly but it will still be a long slow slog to get there. As it is though any of these higher clocked intel processors absolutely dominate in gaming.
There is one important thing here to take away however with Coffee Lake, the mainstream cheaper platform from Intel.

The tougher the DRM, the more it'll be attacked to crack it by the very best. Eventually it'll be defeated, no matter how tough it is. If you show someone an Everest they will try and climb it just because it's there and it's the challenge.
Driver outfits are near completely pointless. The only good thing is the animation on the menu where the driver wafts his or her hands in a motion that suggests they are smelling a fart
Xbox One has a raft of reported low framerate, long loading times and technical problems. Look on the Forza forums.
PC version runs fine for me. By fine I mean 4K and 60FPS without much issue. I turned off Windows 10 game mode which can cause problems on this title.
Turn off Windows 10 game mode.
It certainly isn't just CPU requirements that limit Horizon 3 framerate on console. It's the all over demonstrable better effects!
Did you play Maple Valley? Can you honestly say it looks better than Horizon 3? It has 2D trees everywhere! It has inferior foliage to Forza 4, a six year old game on previous generation hardware!
In fact Forza 7 has graphical downgrades over Forza 5 and 6. This is already being discussed in the forums. The reason of c...

Watch this. Pay attention to the trackside detail. Possibly of the foliage variety.
Prepare to have your mind BLOWN.
Forza Horizon 3's target framerate on console is 30FPS. Forza 7's target on the same Xbox One hardware is 60FPS. Horizon 3 is more demanding. It's more demanding on PC as well, because it has higher quality......well most things. If you can't see that then you need glasses.
That or go and play Maple Valley on Forza 7 and admire all the flat cutout trees.
Now go and find a flat cut out tree like that in Horizon 3. All you'll see is dens...
Having played both on PC, Horizon 3 clearly looks better. It sacrifices frame rate for the open world and greater detail than Forza 7 manages.
To go from 30FPS to 60FPS requires major cuts. Forza Horizon 3 has a more complex lighting engine, better particle/alpha effects, better reflections, higher resolution skybox, and so forth. Look at the quality of smoke or skid marks and damage to terrain in Forza 7 and tell me they are remotely as good as Horizon 3. They practically ...
I would say Horizon 3 looks better, since it was designed for half the framerate of Forza 7 anyway it packs in more detail and effects. At 4K and 60FPS it looks incredible.
Sorry G-Haul but if you genuinely have a mid range PC with that card then you CAN do the games I say in the settings I say. You're doing it wrong if you can't. There is evidence all over youtube, to go with benchmarks.
Forza 7 can be maxed 4K 60FPS, Rise of the Tomb Raider does 1080p 60FPS very high/high settings. For 4K they need to be knocked back a notch, but then Xbox One X as the article states does not manage the highest PC settings nor does it manage 30FPS @ ...
The settings are slightly below the highest on PC. You can have 1080p and 60FPS with some drops or 4K and 30FPS with some drops.
A PC with a mid range year old GTX1060 graphics card can comfortably sustain 60FPS at maximum settings and 1080p. With slightly lessened settings like Xbox One X runs said card can also lock to 30FPS at 4K.
This is similar to Forza 7 and Killer Instinct performance. Xbox One X is proving around as fast as a year old mid range PC...
Xbox One X is the same games lineup but now with the most expensive console. This is a highly accurate assessment of the situation. By definition it has to be, because Microsoft aren't making exclusive X1X games.
There are more factors beyond just games, but it's a games console. Games are the biggest factor overriding everything by far. Games made the Playstation the biggest selling console. Games are why the the less powerful PS2 outsold everything. Games games ga...
World of Tanks works fine in 60FPS on PC. It's just these consoles couldn't do it, Xbox One X can't either
8350k is a budget 7600k, 8600K goes head to head with the Ryzen 1600 series and the 8700k despite being two cores down on the Ryzen 1700X will likely match it in most applications and beat it in games.
All the while leaks suggest Coffee Lake generation chips are capable of 5GHz overclocks without extreme cooling. Meaning they should all be top drawer gaming processors.
The point isn't waiting to play the game. The point is revisiting it down the line and having amazing visual treats like this.
Many said that this wasn't possible, that emulating PS3 wouldn't happen. Well look at how fantastic it is going to be as it gets more and more developed and smoother. In a few years I'll be able to play all my PS3 favourites in 4K and it'll ensure they have a long life span
