Similar to Gamersyde, is there somewhere we can download these videos and dump em on a usb drive? I believe the YT app on LG C7s is still busted for HDR =/

You know Id love to see DF do comparisons on similar games and look at the trade offs and decisions different devs made for there games.
I think racing and fighting games would be really interesting but it would turn into warz

Whenever you do the full DF GTS breakdown, do you plan on looking back at the older versions of the game (like the infamous Copper Box reveal?). I think it'd be interesting to see a side by side comparison of the performance now and then.

I was so down on this game. I didn't even care that it existed, and I am a huge GT fan since the PS1 days.
The beta made me do a complete 180. PD nailed everything. I can't believe I ever doubted them. I see now it was all the PS3's fault. We good, Kaz.

Yes.
pretty done

I've heard the One does but I don't own one. TV and Pro definitely do not.

I always wondered if HDR quality is any different between the Pro and the regular model since the HDMI specs are different.
You're absolutely right but, honestly, I feel like GT Sport is just one step above those. They are all excellent examples of HDR - that much is for certain.
We do have this service...

That's fascinating as I thought the Horizon 3 did a mediocre job at best with it. Forza 7 is an improvement. I can forgive it, though, as it was one of the very first HDR games ever released. Which display are you using?

If any game needed it, it was always Gran Turismo.
The range of lighting was always so small, that you generally either had bright skies while the cars and track were dark as hell, or you had a normal looking track with a blank white void of a sky.
Anti aliasing has also been a weak point in a game series where you pass by fences at high speeds.

HDR stuff aside, but is it just me, or does this not too that great graphically?
Which 60 fps racer looks better?
Seriously, this game is such a pleasure to look at in game and in the menus. The demo alone was so much fun that I can easily see this being one of my top five games of this gen. It is ridiculously good and surpassed all of my expectations (which were a little low since I don't enjoy online racing at all...but they managed to make it great for even someone like me who doesn't like playing online).

are there laptops with HDR screens yet?
In what way specifically?

I'm on mobile so I can't appreciate the video to the fullest right now. Still, the positive reception is a good sign.
We have come a long way with GTS. I still can't believe the amount of people that shit on this game. Now I don't see most of them posting.

Forza? I don't know.
The cars look fine, but the environments?
I'm watching the cockpit camera and the environments don't look good at all.
Maybe it's just the youtube quality messing with me.
I mean, I'll buy it just for it being a HDR showcase, but I was expecting something better.

The environments have some issues, depending on where you're looking and what you're at. The trees/grass particularly. However, I don't really notice this stuff while actually playing it.
i'm playing it in quality mode on a 1080p tv and i'm seeing tons of aliasing. this shouldn't be normal, right? it somehow doesn't look like it's downsampling. it degrades the overall look for me.
i'm on a panasonic gt30 plasma (thx mode).
I am one of the biggest Forza fans you will find. That comment even makes me think:
It has its low moments and parts, for sure, just like other games. But this topic is about the HDR implementation in this game and not a face off with detailed performance analysis and/or comparison pictures. This thread will come, for sure.

That's fair enough and I'm not even a huge racing game fan, but I will buy it just for the HDR if it's that good.

Damn. Wish I could somehow see it in 4K HDR. If only there was some sort of Sony shop.
Every Xbox One HDR title I've played has something equivalent to what they showed there, so I'm not entirely sure what is so special about that.
We really need dynamic metadata to make actually make the game customisable to the display.

Like I said in an earlier post, some backgrounds are just off. And it's jarring because what is immediately in front of you can look so good.

Watching on GS8+ some of this shit looks live real life it's crazy.

i play at 1080p on pro and yeah ...60fps is just .... SO GOOD.
Did you check by any chance if there are differences between spectator view (non letterboxed, found in online lobbies) and standard replays (letterboxed)?
I hate those huge black bars.
Definitely one of the best implementations of HDR I've seen on the PlayStation. HDR made the already great looking lighting look even better.
There's already a thread for this type of conversation guys and this isn't it.

That menu is awesome. Best menu 2017.
Not into racers, but I kinda liked what I played.

Not surprised. Even on a regular 1080p set, the amount of calibration options before the game let's you play shows you how much PD cares about this sort of stuff.

^This,
Frankie strikes again. I haven't seen Sparks but mad max and planet earth 2 in HDR are insane.
That being said I appreciate that games are trying to properly use HDR now. Makes the feature seem like a worthwhile upgrade to buy now compared to 3D which lacked properly implemented support.

The video almost felt like a mini review for the game and pretty much how I feel about the game after playing the demo. PD really stepped up their game with the presentation, graphics, sound, load time's, online and performance here, it's seriously good.
The whole thing is far better than even I expected and I'm really looking forward to playing the full game next week in glorious HDR at 4k, well 1800p cbr but whatever, it still looks fantastic.

Technically, DV is a form of HDR.
HDR10 is the "standard" we're usually talking about.
But High-Dynamic Range is more of an idea and DV is a specification of it.
On YouTube?
You don't have HDR on S8+ YouTube.
Outside of the cars and the lightning, the background geometry looks really dated. I've it running on the Pro and the sides of the roads being flat and the awful textures/trees really stand out, unfortunately.
