One thing i was not sure at is in the way the new Horizon game seems to be is situated in the America's so much.

Well, "The Forbidden West" was mentioned quite a few times in Horizon Zero Dawn so it would kind of make sense for Aloy to head in that direction. Why she is going there, we don't know properly know yet. She has no idea that Hades is still alive.

So on point and it looked better than one. It looks like it's doing tons of things and we can expect tht bcus Horizon one wasn't this static, empty open world like other games.

Can't wait to see how under water gameplay looks and is. Hope thy fixed the only graphical issue which was water animations but I'm sure thy did.
Underwater is cool, but what I really want to see is flight, they've got to make it possible this time thanks to the SSD. And I think they didn't show it yet because it would be so awesome they had to leave it for the gameplay presentation later.

Is this legit?

Being able to choose 60 fps over 4K in Demon's Soul is awesome, hope more games will give those options.

From Japan Studio and Bluepoint Games comes a remake of the PlayStation classic, Demon’s Souls. In addition to beautiful shadow effects and ray tracing, players can choose between two graphics modes while playing: one focused on fidelity, and one focused on frame rate.
Nothing about it being 1080p (or 60fps, but most likely a 60fps mode).

It's not legit it's mostly random guesses by some idiot and some official numbers mixed together. If whoever made it actually done research they would of come up with a much more detailed infographic.

Some of those are definitely already confirmed, and i know they said there's gonna be 2 modes in demon's souls but idk if they said something about res and fps.

Not sure this is accurate, I am sure DF already confirmed sub 4K at 60fps For Sackboy. Also Control at 4K 60? with all those particle effects and RT. Do their games not usually use upscaling techques.

A lot of developers are saying 4K 60fps at the moment, I would not be so sure many of them are meaning native. some of these games will not release for a year+ resolutions can change in the time.

Nice to have a game for free on each console to play around it and test it, not sure how long it'll be though. But it's a great gift from Sony.


The 4K trailer:


For as much as I liked the VR game, it's good this time it's a regular game so more people can play with that charismatic little robot. And to know it will be pre-loaded and a showcase to Dual Sense makes it even better.

Flight Simulator has been a thing for flight enthusiasts on PC for decades, but for the average gamer, it's just plain boring: you takeoff, you fly to your destination while sightseeing and making a few maneuvers, you land. And that's it.

And to talk about graphics on a game with no concerns to AI, characters rendering, real-time action and many other features that load CPU/GPU is too easy.
It's very demanding CPU wise because it's a sim. But there's no Xbox footage so nothing can be said about that version.

Yeah it is, only thing I see wrong is clipping from the hair just before that giant robot emerges from the water. Watch and you see the hair go through the weapon.

Tells us it's realtime but I thought that was obvious anyway but hopefully they improve that also.

Overall it It looks unbelievable and so clean and cgi like.

Have watched it so many times haha.

Can (or should?) we expect the possibility of no clipping should devs push that nextgen? I absolutely hate it but have come to accept it as part of gaming life and experience lol.

Wondering where the expansion bay is...

I bet rear of console 🤔.

The console is listen on Amazon France, it's an official listing by Sony:


No date or price, but now we know it weighs almost 5 Kg. Which is a lot, but also in line with the volume.
Note that will be the weight with controller, cables and packaging and not just the console itself.

See, I've thought the opposite about the focus of the game on the Americas. The Guerrilla team is definitely not American, they are based in Europe. I thought the focus of the game geographically was more culturally driven. Europe has been devastated by two World Wars, which the effects of are still seen and sometimes experienced today. I thought they didn't want to market a game showing a yet again (and worse!) devastated Europe, so the focus on North America was both to provide a geographically huge area they could utilize as well as putting the devastation and decay on North America for a change, which has never really been touched by those terrible world events in the past.

I had actually assumed that the first game was situated in mid or Eastern Europe just from some of the flavors of things, until you find the football stadium. Then the location being North America was pretty obvious. Also, from the game story, it's North America that creates the force that ends the human race, so....not exactly a "Go G.I. Joe!" type of plot. The themes of technical innovation killing, both on purpose and unintentionally, the power madness that drives the invention...all of that. Actually pretty damning on "American culture" if you ask me. But then again, I live here and don't have as much exposure to anti-American sentiment as a lot of people in other countries do. I still saw that message though. But you know what? Despite it all....it's just a game. Just entertainment. Sure there can be some morals and story to take to heart, but no one should really put a lot of stock in things that come from these games.

I think people around the world are used to the US in general, and I'm ok with that, it's the pinnacle of entertainment.

Anyway, I loved Far Cry 2, the best in the series, and would love more games in Africa for example. Overall, I think the game makes much more sense to be in the US from a technical point at least.

:lollipop_tears_of_joy: sircaw sircaw Can't wait to play Watch Dogs Legions and has like a side mission in Liverpool so I can ruin the stadium of LFC.

Its timdog and Colberts latest FUD campaign, notice the 1080p lol

To be honest the 1st party doesn’t interest me at the moment. Although the amount of RT PS5 is actually managing while maintaining frames and res is pretty cool.

But I’m mainly interested to see the number of mulitplats and cross gen games running at the same res and FPS on the two - my “pet” prediction ...

So far 3 for 3 - destiny, control and oberserver all running the same on both.

That game is in my top list. It's funny that I already felt sad for this bald man, seemed like a good bloke:




He made such bold intro statements to die few minutes later. :lollipop_tears_of_joy: Love his accent, seems like a funny knob head. RIP :lollipop_crying:


Pretty damn awesome, the Granny running around shocking people with the teaser while the sounds of Grieg, Hall of the mountain king is playing.

Classical music plus ultra modern day gadgets, nice lol

LIVERPOO

The 4K trailer:


4K60 according to Digital Foundry. 4 worlds to explore, don't know how large those are.

I hope it is playable in VR.

Anyone know if the DualShock 4 will be compatible with the PS5?
I think they will have to be cos of VR, a lot of VR games expect the wide triangle LED thingy at the back for tracking.

I’m still hoping that one of the surprises yet to come is two extra paddle buttons on the DualSense, I use the back button accessory on my PS4 controllers, makes a huge difference in FPS.

Well I think in the UE5 demo when the bats fly out he says particles can now communicate with each other. I presumed that meant so they dont clip through.

I'd expect decima to be able to keep up with everything or have their own methods.

I'm sure they will work on everything. But especially when it's as beautiful as it is and such a clean image. The techniques used seem top notch so when something like clipping happens it's a bit immersion breaking.

Fix that and from the last game the out of sync speaking and its onto a winner.

We know demonsouls is 4k with varying modes could be 4k30 RT and 4k 60 no RT.
Granturismo is 4k60 RT, horizon is 4k, Kena is 4k, returnal is 4k, because everything was captured within a ps5 DF did pixel counts and everything was 4k bar sackboy for some reason.Who ever made this done a piss poor attempt.
Sackboy was 1512p (half of 4K) 60fps, but they say the image quality is good. That's the same average resolution Spiderman run on the PS4 Pro.
In my opinion we should ask developers to offer that option in the 4K30 games that are not CPU bound.

I have a feeling that the white parts are detachable.

You think its bad now, wait till the digital foundry comparisons come out, i am so getting banned.

I am like one of those bugs that can't help itself and needs to go towards that light, can't recall what cartoon it was from but it made me laugh..

No, mate, you're the only fish we got, be careful. :lollipop_tears_of_joy: :lollipop_raising_hand:

They offered this option in Shadow of the Colossus remake on the Pro: 30fps at 1440p (with some temporal accumulation) or 1080p 60. I tested the higher resolution, but after seeing the 60fps in motion the choice is clear. It was a bit blurry on a 4K TV, but felt much better to play.
