Support NeoGAF

[HTK]

I'm not certain if the following point has been discussed on GAF, perhaps within one of those lengthy threads. Nonetheless, I find it particularly intriguing as we often discuss the infancy of Cloud-Gaming and its drawbacks, suggesting it still has a long way to go. Recently, the CMA decision has revealed several fascinating details that caught my attention. One in particular stood out: the possibility of lower-latency game streaming, surpassing the experience of playing the game locally on a PlayStation 5. This technology has been pursued for over a decade, and I'm now curious to see if it's finally achievable? I'm curious what graphical quality and resolution is achieved with this low-latency.

MODS DELETE IF THIS HAS BEEN REPEATED ELSEWHERE.

Twitter Thread w/ Additional Interesting CMA Info

That is very CLEARLY Nvidia and not Sony... It even says "which it had achieved by using more powerful graphical processing units".... Does PSNow use GPUs? No... it uses consoles.

Nvidia was bragging about their improvements to Geforce Now with their 40 series GPUs.

It's pr until we can test it.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Cerny didn't say that, that tweet is wrong! Most likely it was someone from Nvidia with regards to Geforce Now and their latest RTX 4000 series GPUs and tech.

"less latency than local". Only Nvidia could come up with bullshit claims like that.

 

[killatopak]

Seriously doubt that.

Really, your enemy is physics.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

Lmfao, this was Nvidia and comparing their shit to the worst case scenario for the XSX.

Let's scratch that:

Despite if Sony or Nvidia said it, it seems like it was used as evidence in the CMA so there is a possibility of the tech. I find that crazy feat if it's true that would be amazing not to be bound by hardware however there are other issues, people that don't have access to internet. Or them controlling at what resolution or FPS you play your games at, but for normal joe schmo let's be honest who outnumber us per say this is a godsend if true. "IF TRUE".

Will it work with my dial up connection.

I wonder what minimum speed requirements will be.

If it was outperforming their console, Sony would have been over this and advertise their cloud network.

Sound like they was talking about Google & this was probably compared to PS4 & Xbox One

This is obviously nvidia but in an online game a cloud game could have similar or better latency since your moves are being relayed to the host machine with latency anyway, just hidden with all sorts of interpolation/extrapolation.

 

[Bojanglez]

Negative latency is finally here

I think you're over simplifying it a bit. There is the fact that they sell hardware and physical disks (traditional means of business) at the moment. This is something that slowly needs to transition, you gotta build a proper infrastructure to really be able to scale up etc... etc... It's not as simple as this tech is amazing flip the switch.

I actually can though.. It can be less latent than consoles.

And that was back at the 30 series launch. The 40 series is faster still.

 

[Badlucktroll]

Is this to make ps3 games run better

 

[Calverz]

This reads like nVidia tbh.
