I just want to say that cooperdnizzle has no clue what he is talking about. I’ve been primarily a PC gamer but do play exclusives or multiplayer games on consoles. In the PC world you can overclock lower end gpu’s to claw back some of the performance gap but you still can’t beat having more cores.
Microsoft is also running their clocks conservatively and could clock them higher like they did with the CPU last gen or like Nintendo did with the Switch GPU. There is a gap...
How many AAA games meet expectations anymore? If your policy was implemented BioWare and Bethesda would never release another game. That was mainly a joke but I agree in general that companies shouldn’t be allowed to just release this kind of crap. We should probably dig up that old Nintendo certification process where games couldn’t be put on the system unless quality approved by the platform holder. The certification in place today basically just checks to make sure the game doesn’t bri...
They are doing the right thing by allowing refunds for unsatisfied buyers. People on next-gen systems are having a decent experience from what I hear so they are allowing those people to keep playing and those on older systems can get their money back. No drawbacks there.
Sony was just getting blasted for denying refunds initially when they stated people should just wait for the patches. They got tired of getting the criticism and reacted by pulling the game. I feel thi...
I couldn’t disagree more. I have zero problem playing games at 60 FPS just fine. I don’t like playing games below that for the most part but requiring 120 to have a good experience is a bit much. Definitely 1st world problems which I also presume this means you will be waiting to play Cyberpunk for several years as only getting 80 or less will not work.....although to be fair it may be patched to good shape by then.
Control is the most advanced ray traced game to come out aside from the fully path traced remake of quake 2. Spider-Man isn’t more technically advanced than control. Check out the Digital Foundry video breaking down the features as they do a great job of explaining it. Control can bring the 3090 to it’s knees depending on settings so I wouldn’t expect them to get above 30 in that game unless they make more substantial cuts to the ray tracing.
Sure criticism is coming from both fanbases but you have to admit there are a lot of deranged trolls from the Sony side in all the Microsoft articles. There is valid criticism to be had because Halo was a colossal disappointment when shown. The performance hasn’t been there yet but it is early days and Microsoft’s sdk wasn’t as advanced as Sony’s so it will take more time and is unrealistic for them to be up to speed day one when they didn’t have final hardware until much later. But people...
Those drives are irrelevant as they are not nvme gen 4 drives. Talk about not comparing apples to apples.
At least the ones that were listed as being well under that price.
The first set of numbers is completely meaningless. Both consoles have sold out of all units delivered but Sony was able to produce more. The demand is higher for PS5 but for the initial launch it is irrelevant. Unless anyone is an investor I’m not sure why anyone really cares about this anyway. Just another metric to stir up the irrational console war fanboys.
All of you need to pipe down about the console wars. It is early days. PS3 games ran at half frame rate during the first year or two of some EA sports games until they got a handle on it. The Dirt 5 dev already stated that the Sony SDK was further along than Microsoft’s due to them changing it and Sony basically retaining the same one used for PS4. It will be another year before anyone can say anything one way or another and it doesn’t matter at the end of the day. Really dumb arguing ab...
This isn't going to be a gaming issue so please stop fighting over this. The full bandwidth of HDMI 2.1 is 48GB/s anyway so the 40 number isn't full bandwidth either unless it was just reported incorrectly. PS5 and XSX will never game at 8k regardless of anything else and most of the games that offer 120 fps modes will be at 1080p which doesn't require the same bandwidth so this is a non-problem for gaming on these systems.
The only place this will end up ma...
Yeah I'm not sure what the issue is. If you have the next-gen version why would you want to play the old one? HDD space seems like you are reaching for an excuse to be mad about something. Especially when game size can actually go down this gen for some titles as you only need to download the aspect of the game you are going to be playing where you didn't have that choice before.
I think the difference you are seeing in the BC load times isn't due to the SSD's at all. I believe this has to do with the Xbox having a slightly higher CPU clock speed which can chew through the loading a bit faster.
I have no idea how much of an impact the SSD's will be on next-gen only games as this is entirely new. I know that today the fastest SSD's that are gen 4 NVMe are orders of magnitude faster than the SATA SSD's and yet the delta in load...
Hopefully you don’t have to pay for those enhancements. GoT is an amazing game BTW.
Yes it is. I meant that neither console or PC version of RDNA 2 has announced any type of AI based up scaling like DLSS.
Except for the fact that neither console has a DLSS solution announced. I’m not sure if that will be part of the RDNA 2 architecture but I hope so.
I'm so looking forward to Demon's Souls as that is the only souls game that I missed out on...........now if only I could get a damn PS5 preorder.
I love Halo and have to admit that they really f'd that up. That team is capable of making great looking games as they had shown with Halo 4 on 360. I would say that game looks better than Halo Infinite. Of course that was rendering much smaller areas but still. They should have made Halo Infinite next-gen only.
Not sure where you would have got that from. They said pretty early on that only the first two years were going to be cross-gen. All you have to do is a simple google search and you will see that from back in January so this comment seems disingenuous.
Well somebody got sand in their vajayjay.
Lookup the reason before posting your immature fanboy crap.
