Last time I'll post on this, if you don't get it with factual proof then you just won't get it.

I'm playing DC Universe online right now after watching Dexter on Netflix without a Plus subscription. Warfarame, DCUO, and all other free2play and online only games DO NOT require a Plus subscription. This place is...
@ Antz
That's just not true though with online only games and I think I know why. Sony left it up to the developers and if they are trying to get you to subscribe to their servers, why would they want a piece of their pie to go to Sony for a plus subscription. Again all f2p and online only games have not required a PlayStation plus subscription to play on PS4. Only single player games with a multiplayer component require a subscription. This whole paywall thing just seems...
I thought it was already well known that all free 2 play and online only games don't require a PlayStation plus subscription. Also Netflix and any of the other subscription based streaming services dont require a PlayStation plus sub. Sony basically says that it's the developer's choice to place their software behind a plus subscription.

Seriously? Both consoles have a jaguar CPU, based on it's predecessor the bobcat core. The Jaguar CPU was always designed for NOTEBOOKS and tablets so no it is not a tablet only CPU. The PS4 and XBOne CPUs smash the cortex a15 (which incidentally is a tablet CPU) in benchmarks. Then again, a surface pro 2 tablet has an Intel i5 in it so maybe your looking at this all wrong.
The GPU is close to an R9 270 with more dedicated compute units called ACE cores and two disabled C...
Are you kidding? I can't tell. If the game is output @ 1080p/60fps on a TV or monitor, why would it not output the same on a VR headset? Its not outputting two different images or anything, its simply a smaller more focused HDTV and motion tracking is simple. Basically instead of camera movement being mapped to the joystick it's simply mapped to the spacial axis dependent position of the VR head unit. I don't understand how you think this would somehow make the target software mor...
I assume he's playing at greater than 1080p because his monitor has a higher native resolution. Actually, of course a 1080p image will be blurry on a 1440p monitor, as it is below native resolution of the monitor and having to stretch pixel output to fit the screen space.
Nah man, from a hardware perspective at least, the PS4 has the pixel fill rate and bandwidth to handle 1080p 60fps (25.6 gpixels per second), a fixed 1920x1080 render is 2.07 mpixels. So like I said, the PS4 has the potential to more than handle 1080p. Another point is that this is not the previous gen where 720p is the norm, so far only one game doesn't output 1080p on PS4 and it was also a very unoptimized mess as well. The fact that the game stutters on every platform including mid-ran...
Yeah there are frame rate dips, but completely opposite of where they should be. The textures aren't high resolution assets and the game isn't too high on poly count at a glance, and yet strangely the frame rate hiccups happen indoors looking at walls and floors, but not outside panning the big open city. When this happens on PC, its usually fixable by tweaking an INI or cfg file to utilize more cores and/or cache. This just seems to be bad developer work when time/money constraints a...
Listen man, it has nothing to do with resolution. There are more demanding games running 1080p/60FPS without a hitch. Its not the capability of the system that's in question unless you just want to be ignorant and divisive, it is the capability of the development team that is in question. I personally don't care if XBox One game resolutions are lowered, because I think that resolution should match capabilities of the system, and I'm personally happy when xbox one owners have a flu...
A lot of what you say I agree with and have said the same. These new consoles however are just a different breed of PC, and the linear game design theory holds true for last gen, but not so much with this new generation. Us PC gamers stand to benefit from more powerful consoles as like you said they are the lowest common denominator, so for them to come close to PC parity is actually a very good thing for PCs. The Witcher 3 is open world, Infamous SS is open world, GTA V from last gen was ope...
Ask yourself what a PC with a second gen Core i5 CPU (@ 2ghz) and an HD7870 can run with max settings at 1080p/60fps, and thats roughly what the PS4 can achieve right now with a mostly under developed SDK, seeing as how it has almost theoretical parity with the example I gave. No need to go PC if you have a PS4 you already have one (disguised as a console). Its funny because we PC guys gripe and level our complaints towards consoles and unceremoniously inject our proud choice of off the shelf...
The scores were wrong, the site has been updated. At least for 4k video using Bink, the next gen consoles are uncomfortably close to PCs.
Looks like what I imagine a wendigo to look like.
Wow, what an awesome rendition. Did anyone else notice how strangely close in tone that sounded to the original?
I guess I had hoped for better...lol my mistake. What's up with all the buzzword usage around here lately? I see articles like this implying some high level of secret sauce in the WiiU's design, though this same article is clearly based on community speculation and no cited facts yet I see all these Nintendo fans ( I myself am a fan of Nintendo and their clear influence on the industry and its history) around here writing really strong comments with not even the slightest idea what th...
Are you serious? Higher internal resolution, higher polygon geometry, 60FPS, more realistic volumetric water surface, added post processing effects and more complex lighting in the PS4 version and youre saying you cant see a diference?
As for your second comment, the PS4 is only roughly 16 times more powerful than the PS3 so I totally get where you are coming from...not really. 16 times the system memory(8GB vs 0.5GB), and GDDR5 is way faster than the GDDR3 in the PS3, eigh...
Then there is this. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz...
Take the kabini multicore score and multiply them by two (PS4 has two quad core kabinis). Easily in the core i5 territory. So the PS4 is roughly relative to a PC with a core i5 CPU and an HD7870 minus the PC system memory bandwidth bottleneck and more CPU/GPU bandwidth than PCIe 4.0.
Hey the crazy thing is, I am a PC gamer....
Then there is this http://gamrconnect.vgchartz... .
Take the kabini multicore scores a multiply them by two. On par with a Core i5 desktop CPU.
I'm hoping for mouse support in the browser. My K400r keyboard works great, but because of no mouse support, the track pad doesn't work yet. The dualshock 4 has the Wii nunchuck mode for typing but its just not the same. I'm asking for something simple that is well within the capabilities of the console. The browser needs expansion and html5 support should be on the list for improvement. Other than that a YouTube native app with browser click out support would be awesome. The PS4 ...
Good to know that my custom HD7870 (would be an HD7865 on paper), 8 core low power CPU, and 8GB GDDR5 in my PS4 are ready to play this game...
/s?
Is it me or do next gen console specs seem to be deciding PC requirements?
