Well.....Expect an early 09 blowout on a lot of the 09 releases.

 

[NinjaFridge]

How many Wii's is that?

All of them

 

[poppabk]

And your contribution to this thread is to mock people? Neat. I wish everyone would only post to mock someone. Helpful cand nice ommunity posters should be banned 4 life.

It was a joke. Relax.

Guess what pal, you're fuxed.

 

[larvi]

I lost count will I need 5 or 8 jobs to be able to afford this?

Thats some funky fps calculations... dont let math fool you kids, it's still 60 fps.

The res is hawt though Might aswell buy a PC for that sort of things though.

The 2160p demonstration is. However, the 240fps demonstration is ... 240 fps.

 

[TheKurgan]

What the hell is the point of this? I wish PD would just concentrate on release their F'n game.

SERIOUS BUSINESS! :lol

 

[Ranger X]

What a waste of time.

Time that could be used in something usefull like GT5.

Also it pisses me off anytime I hear about techies out there and their resolution and FPS power trip. I agree it's important but it can't go exponentially forever. It's useless.

The last home configuration for audio/video that will matter (while they WILL try to sell you something supposedly better) is something in 1080p @ 60fps in 5.1 sound. (though on the sound side of things it's possible 7.1 might become the norm... like for the children of my children.)

 

[KTallguy]

Release the game please.

 

[a Master Ninja]

Cool, but pointless. Why bother?

 

[b.e.r.g]

... aaaaah, now I got it

Wow, I want to see that. To actually judge if its noticeable compared to 60fps.

 

[Kagari]

I will be~

 

[Wollan]

Cool, but pointless. Why bother?

Because they can.

 

[duk]

uhh why don't you finish GT4 first, thanks

 

[Pojo]

This is the kind of impractical nonsense that fanboys latch onto when trying to portray how awesome their console is because the console itself has nothing to play.

So you'll know that the system is going through a dry spell when someone brings this up in a 360 thread.

But in all seriousness? OK.

 

[dalin80]

16 PS3's put together become self aware for the first time ever.

Networking them in that way would give awesome brute force attack strength.

 

[antiloop]

It's impressive. If you can afford that projector 4 PS3s shouldn't pose a problem.

 

[Nathan Rain]

By the time they actually release this damn thing it'll be time for Playstation 5. :lol

 

[DOBERMAN INC]

How many people will actually try this? honestly its neat that it can be done but I think its about time to show some shit that every GT5 owner will see.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Uhh, I don't really think the point of this was for the average person to try it. This was basically something they put together to show off at the 10th Anniversary GT event.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Well.....Expect an early 09 blowout on a lot of the 09 releases.

But is that calendar 2009 or fiscal 2009? ;P

 

[Trojan X]

Oh. So I need 4 PS3 and a kickass projector to enjoy this at home. So that means I would have to spend nearly £4000 to enjoy the visual experience...?

Move along.

 

[Puck]

All of them

:lol

 

[JayRizzle]

Yawn, while the console fanboys argue over whether its true 2160p or upscaled from 1860p, PC owners will be playing full 10240x3072 res games.
http://www.plastk.net/highres/24mon/
10240x3072 quake 3

That is awesome... I will do that one day.


And they are developing junk that is way too expensive for the slumped economy to keep up with... regardless of how awesome it is...

I wanna see them make a game that packed, and then make it affordable to us budgeted gamers with bills... that would be impressive...

 

[Farnack]

nothing to play.

 

[WickedCobra03]

Too bad they just don't down res it to 1080p and fix the AI, damage modeling, physics ... ect with the other 3 Playstation 3's.

 

[matmanx1]

Very impressive. Kudo's to the PD guys for always pushing the technological envelope forward and for having such amazing models in the first place. Somewhere down the line it would be nice to reap the rewards for all their work. (translation - I want GT: 5 full release asap!) :lol

 

[Pojo]

Nah, I'm currently enjoying LBP, Bioshock and Resistance among other things. I said WHEN.

 

[AranhaHunter]

Just give me the fucking game, goddamn it Sony has done everything possible to fuck themselves in the ass this generation.

 

[blu]

Because they can.

 

[Apex]

£4000?

I remember PD testing the same on late 2000 with GT3, 6 PS2, 6 big wall screens and a total of 1920x1440 at 60 fps.

 

[Dyne]

I'm totally treading into territory I don't know about, but isn't the gameplay itself not full 1080p? Or have they changed that for the full release?

Because at this site, they say:

GT5 Prologue (demo) = 1080p mode is 1280x1080 (2xAA) in-game while the garage/pit/showrooms are 1920x1080 with no AA. 720p mode is 1280x720 (4xAA)

http://forum.beyond3d.com/showthread.php?t=46241

I'm assuming the case here is that the actual gameplay is 1920x1080 with no AA, and then when it goes into Replay it turns into 1280x1080 with some AA?

Yeah, but that's GT5P. We have no idea how GT5 is going.

 

[RavenFox]

My God thats unheard of. This machine even if it takes four is just damn amazing.

Not enough Gamecubes were manufactured to do this anyway.

Thats ownage you cant come back from :lol

 

[Raistlin]

Oh shit son

 

[Router]

Hey PD... Less time on this shit and more time on making an actual fucking game please.

 

[RavenFox]

Oh god shut up.

 

[solid2snake]

wake me, when we can play F-Zero GX in 2160p.

 

[Lord Error]

This is pretty fantastic Same goes of course for that crazy PC setup, but this is even better as you get one whole image with no separation in between each screen.

 

[Router]

Oh god shut up.

OH GOD NO U!

 

[RavenFox]

OH GOD NO U!

Hey are you talking to me? You better not be talking to me grrrr

 

[Durante]

What the fuck is up with the negativity in this thread?
They decide to show off their game (and some awesome Sony hardware) at an anniversary, at the cost of maybe 2 programmer weeks, and people have nothing better to do than moan? Sometimes I really hate the anti-technology part of GAF.

Personally I'm very happy to see that they are still doing stuff like that. These kind of projects are what I like about Sony in the first place, and it's good to see that Stringer hasn't managed to completely kill off the engineering spirit in the company (so far).

 

[jmonteiro]

Nailed it, GT5P only runs in 1280x1080 in 1080p mode so the resulting image from the 4 PS3s would actually only be 2560 x 2160.

Actually I think it's 960x1080

 

[Router]

Will I need a second PS3 for friends races?
A third for damage ?
A fourth to handle the Nürburgring ?

Put me down for an extra 50 just for the dynamic weather.

 

[Durante]

No it's 1280x1080 with 2xAA. And that's Prologue, not necessarily GT5.

 

[soco]

i've been watching people work on stuff like this recently.

it's not on just one monitor, but aren't there already several console games that do multi-display output?

Yeah there are but not on this lvl and hardware power.

QFT. Technical experimentation like this is something I like to see from game devs. It might seem a little elitist, but I happily associate PD with that.
