The game can't be released soon enough...

 

[Skeff]

So much hearsay that I am going to be sceptical about this until we see some footage and a frame rate analysis.

From the OP:

Rocket Chainsaw have detailed performance and rendering quality of both the Xbox One and PlayStation builds of Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition. And for that we’re thankful. So here it is!

On average:
PlayStation 4 = 60 fps
Xbox One = 30 fps

 

[Odrion]

Okay, TOTALLY BUYING THIS NOW.

 

[dmr87]

Here we go.

[OboroShogun]

I feel dirty looking forward to this thread.

Mother of god.

 

[valkillmore]

OK! I'm in! I'll buy this. PS4 Hell Yeah!

 

[PodcastFips]

Holy cow. Wow.

 

[BronsonLee]

Oh fuck.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

The hits keep on coming.

 

[Strider]

but... the cloud....

 

[viveks86]

Uh oh. How the hell do I spin this now? :/

 

[Tagyhag]

Welp, that's a teeny bit of a difference.

I'd wager some of those same people will say "30 FPS is fine for a game like this though".

And people will be like "that isn't the point".

You just predicted the whole thread.

 

[RedAssedApe]

they should have just locked the xbone version. 30fps locked feels smooth to me for assassins creed

 

[ethomaz]

A new MEGATON... loved.

I missed that on GAF.

I will buy this version of the game because I missed it on PS3.

 

[Az]

I am moving into this thread. Fun times ahead.

 

[Amir0x]

...but Albert Penello told us...

No WAY they'd concede 30%+ to the Sony!

 

[kittens]

So glad I'm actually here for when the big news hits this time.

Me too, I was really worried you'd be absent.

 

[RE_Player]

Does the Xbox One version have exclusive Kinect features?

 

[Krusenstern]

...but Albert Penello told us...

I wonder, did he get banned actually?

 

[Draper]

I said goddamn Sony.

 

[Quadraphonic]

Putting in the quote and link that people will be expecting:

People DO understand that Microsoft has some of the smartest graphics programmers IN THE WORLD. We CREATED DirectX, the standard API’s that everyone programs against. So while people laude Sony for their HW skills, do you really think we don’t know how to build a system optimized for maximizing graphics for programmers? Seriously? There is no way we’re giving up a 30%+ advantage to Sony. And ANYONE who has seen both systems running could say there are great looking games on both systems. If there was really huge performance difference – it would be obvious.

Oh wait. That last line... maybe he was telling the truth. It is obvious.

 

[Kagari]

Another Dev not putting effort in the Xbox One version? Color me surprised..... :/

There is a power difference between the two systems whether you want to believe it or not.

 

[ZeroAKA]

Great news for the PS4. Going to preorder in a bit.

 

[dzelly]

I'd wager some of those same people will say "30 FPS is fine for a game like this though".

And people will be like "that isn't the point".

Oh yeah, the "This game is cinematic!" "It's not a twitch shooter!" "30 FPS is fine, you won't even SEE the difference!" incoming.

Fact is, you'll FEEL the difference.

 

[alr1ght]

...but Albert Penello told us...

He told us a lot of things before promptly disappearing after the launch.

 

[BrokenIcarus]

Cerny redeemed?

 

[Grief.exe]

The Xbox One is significantly weaker than the PS4 and has a sizable OS overhead. There are only so many ways you can work around that disadvantage.

 

[Mikey Jr.]

30 fucking frames.

My God.

30!!!!

1080p at 60fps.

What a fucking beast of a machine.

 

[KillerIsJed]

But how does it run on the Nintendo Fusion?

I understand you're a mod and all, but this goes back to if sources are to be trusted, so excuse me if I'm a bit skeptical.

 

[The Xtortionist]

Uhhhhh

Fuck, guess I'm buying this then.

So at THIS point - I go talk to someone. "Hey, you helped design our system. You're a sr. technical leader at Microsoft. You're sitting with 3rd party developers right now who are working on both systems. Can you give me some points to help explain why nobody is seeing this rumored 50% delta"

2. If it comes out after we launch that the difference between 3rd party games is maybe single-digit FPS between the two platforms, will I get an apology or concession

[Seik]

God damn, this is a huge gap. :O

I'll probably buy it when I'll finally get a PS4.

This is how this generation is going to play out for multiplatform titles, it seems. Either there'll be large frame rate differences or large visual differences.

 

[Chamber]

Right click, saved.

 

[QaaQer]

I'm actually REALLY surprised the PS4 version is running at 60fps. I know it's TECHNICALLY cross-gen, but the game looks really graphically good with a huge amount of improvements.

Closed box. PC types dismiss it all the time, but Timothy Lottes says it offers huge performance advantages.

 

[Exr]

Sweet merciful christ

 

[btrboyev]

Unlocked framerates is shitty on both consoles.

 

[AstroNut325]

My anticipation for the Digital Foundry face off just shot through the roof.

 

[Hydrogen Bluebird]

Is this part of the ass storm?

 

[Revolutionary]

That's pretty much how I played it at launch due to poor Nvidia performance. It was perfectly fine, to be honest.

60fps is always preferred, of course.

 

[CSX]

Link is not working for me. Anyone else having the problem?

 

[JaggedSac]

Ruh roh.

 

[viveks86]

Doesn't the Xbox One output at 60 fps? Mr. Greenberg?

 

[Skeff]

Yes, It's actually quite an achievement to get 60fps with , must surely be using TressFX 2.0, I believe with TressFX the PC version at 1080p on a 7850 would be 30-40fps?

 

[Gaz_RB]

Well I'll be damned.

The PS4 can handle all the visual upgrades and get 60 FPS due to it's own hardware, for the Xbone version to run at 60 FPS a lot of those visual upgrades have to be lessened. The Xbone isn't being neglected, framerate is being sacrificed for better visuals.
