"I am a 3d animator and have worked in the movie and video game industry for over 10 years and you fanboys are the worst wannbe tech people on planet earth. You have taken this 60fps bull crap and mutated it into your little calling card to validate the power of a system and for that you are stupid, ignorant, and totally lame.

When you go to a movie and watch legendary films like Star Wars, Full Metal Jacket, or The Avengers what the hell frame rate are you looking at you clowns???!!!!

When you watch Monday Night Football or an NBA baseketball game or the morning news what frame rate are you looking at you fools???!!!

Do you notice the difference between the look of a movie such a Star Wars to that of an NFL football game you idiots???!!!

Of course you do and it's all because of the mutherFn' frame rate. For movies the frame rate is 24 frames per second you stupid goons! And for an NFL football game or the morning news the frames per second is 30 frames per second you freaks!!!!

Frames per second is an artistic choice, it determines the LOOK of a game i.e. do you want your game to look and feel like a cinematic movie or do you want your game to look like a broadcast which is 30 frames per second or 60 frames per second for video games!!!!

Sure, it says a lot when you can turn on every graphical feature and your game can purr along at 60 frames per second but that's not the POINT of 60fps!!!! Again, it's a determination of how you want your game to look!!!

I personally prefer my game to MIMIC a movie. I want my Star Wars game or Lord of the Rings game to look EXACTLY like their movie counter parts which means they CAN"T operate at 60fps because that IS NOT a cinematic frame rate, that a video or broadcast frame rate!!!

So please, you idiots who preach this nonsense, just shut the F up!!! You don't have a clue on what you're talking about.

Everyone else- PLEASE copy and paste this message to educate the idiots!!!!

SMH

eman3d out!"

 

Yeah, just like those Lord of the Rings movies... which are now screening at 60fps. Because modern cinema shouldn't be constrained by the technological and economic limitations of the film industry one hundred years ago. Nor should video games be constrained by the conventions of a century of history in a completely different medium.

30 FPS is more then enough for a game that is not an FPS. This 30 or 60 FPS stuff is nonsense. Only really important in online FPS multiplayer and maybe racing games.

Fighting games with fast combo chains is unplayable in 30fps... for competition of course... you can have funny yet but not turn a master.

Right, 60fps is only important in FPS games, racing games, and fighting games. It's also pretty nice to have in action games and platformers.

I guess what we're saying here, is that there's no need to have 60fps in strategy games. Wait, it was pretty nice in Fire Emblem Awakening, too... made the combat flow and the UI feel very responsive...
