Agreed. Considering the only way you’ll best the $1,000 PS5 Pro visually is with a $2,000 PC with a 5080 series or higher GPU. I’d say it’s a bargain if you want stable high end performance.
GameKey card? Pass
Frame gen can help in some cases but it’s kind of a last ditch method of smoothing out the visuals. I’m glad tv were bringing this in late in the game. The added latency doesn’t always work out for some types of games, and the artifacts are pretty distracting. Nice to have options but I fear if it’s available devs will lean on it by default later in the generation.
nVidia is foregoing traditional rendering priorities in their hardware design for AI frame gen, and it’s on...
I hate DRM but this kind of news makes me okay with it.
This is hallucination, not raw ray traced light calculation. It’s realtime modding the game into AI slop, fuzzy artifacts and all. Call me unimpressed.
lol, they’ve failed and given up on the console space and now they’re going to fail upward in the Windows space. I wish they’d just make a solid platform again. Seems those days are gone.
Hey, look, they turned the XBOX platform into Big Picture mode! Can’t say I’m thrilled for Windows to have yet another layer of bloat added. XBOX has been reduced to just a label at this point.
Love to see it. Makes sense with the BC250 running Bazzite perfectly.
Now that XBOX is essentially leaving the console space, this is likely more about Sony wanting to sell those PS5 Pro consoles instead of giving PC gamers a reason to buy a 4090. They’re “purifying” the console exclusive experience instead of falling into Microsoft’s “everything is an XBOX” trap.
Game. Over. Sega, where you at?
Unfortunately the studio closures for Sony have started to stack up just like they did for Microsoft after consolidating so much. Sad to see such talented studios get bulldozed under.
Huge improvement. The game looks pretty much excellent now. Thanks for continuing to push improvements out Ubi!
The biggest issues have been comfort, and the games being too gimmicky / waggly, like Best Saber and Fruit Ninja. But with current tech running the full meat experiences, like Half-life Alyx, Subside, MS Flight Simulator, it’s truly revolutionary.
I personally enjoy the flat 2 vr conversions and more traditional gaming experiences with VR added on, like Gran Turismo and AstroBot, Valheim VR and Forefront, etc. The most immersive way to play some games is in VR, IMO, and I...
I’m super excited for this. I hope it can be finished at some point.
These all look pretty great. Skyrim VR upgraded with some of the amazing mods and running on a high end PC is really unlike anything else I've ever played, except maybe Valheim: VR.
Let me guess, you're the "EGS Defense Force"? Objectively looking at what the Steam client offers vs. EGS for that 30% cut (which Sony and Nintendo still charge) is pretty relevant. EGS is not a superior product, does not offer superior features, is only relevant because Epic gives way free games to entice users to use the platform, and Sweeney resorts to suing his competition instead of actually competing. Its pretty easy not to be on his side IMO without being on the "...
The Devs said it was due to Nintendo Content Guidelines. Even they seem somewhat baffled that they had to make changes but Witcher and Cyberpunk did not have to be censored.
AdHoc: "As Nintendo states, any game that’s going to be on the Nintendo platform needs to ‘meet [Nintendo’s] established content and platform guidelines.’ This is the key point. Nintendo has content guidelines. Our game didn’t meet those guidelines, so we made changes that would allow us to releas...
Deku Deals is hardly a cross section of the gaming community, lol.
Lame. Still treating the platform like it’s not for adults.
OOB Switch 2 does pretty good for running at sub-720P with DLSS doing heavy lifting. However I ended up buying it for my Deck instead because since it’s a PC, I can use whatever AI upsampling I want and with frame gen I’m getting low-latency input with solid 60FPS at 768P on high settings (except Hair is on medium). It runs almost flawlessly on Deck as well. This is a win all around for mobile players.
