I have to call BS on that one.  I expect such statements from a fanboy which I hope you are not touting that banner.  Developers make mistakes all the time because they are human.  They make PR statements which most times are just tweets or them talking to the press more than anything else.  Yes, at the time of E3 they were pushing a much higer poly count for the main characters.  Later in development, they decided to go a different direction.  This happens all the time especially when tweaking and balancing a game for a consistent experience.  Only fanboys get up in arms about numbers.  As long as the end result looks just as good and perform just as good than thats where it matters.

I hate to bring it up again but its like your statements on Drive Club and Forza.  You keep talking about DC being 60 but its not, then you are comparing it to Forza which is 60 and making claims as if the two games are equal in their focus which is not the case.

I believe its time to turn down the banner waving and stick to the facts.

When I said DC is 60fps? Show me guy... I challenge you.

Fact: DriveClub looks better overall than Forza 5... and? The car model looks better in Forza 5?... and? Everything else looks better in DriveClub?... and?

Now about your first paragraph... they missed the target because they faced a limitation... so before try they make the "EVER" claim... so if they make the claim and didn't reach that they are wrong... nothing will never changed that and they need to be criticized.

After that they changed the things and started to work in others ways... if they other is working it is a good thing but it will never change the claim "EVER" because it is wrong.

I have my bias but I'm fine with that... I don't have double standards or banner... I'm honest and show the right thing wharever the subject is... I don't live in a world where if you like something in a game you can't dislike other thing.

And just for your hate... DriveClub is targeting 60fps and I'm not sure if the changes makes Ryse better.

I will show you because you mentioned it in comparison to Forza a lot.  I will not waste this thread with it.  Drive Club looks better to YOU which you seem to forget is an opinion not a statement of fact.  I watch the vidoes for drive club, from screen tearing to popin to low muddy shadows.  If those float your boat or you just ignored than fine.

Last topic on Drive Club, the developer can target whatever they want, when they actually do it is when you can thump your chest.  Last statement from the developer is that the game is locked at 30fps.

You have no clue what was missed.  This is pure opinion.  You have no clue if its limitation in the hardware or just a totally change in direction for the complete game assets.  As for making a claim, was the main character running at those levels when shone at E3 or more to the point when they talked about game assets at the autodesk event.  If this was the case then there was no lying.  If a developer decides to change direction well, by golly they have that right.  There is nothing to pin on them since the game is not out.

The only problem I have with bias is when people make claims as if they are facts instead of their view point or opinion.  I do not see you pinning KZ for mostly 60fps.  You take their word that this will not effect your gameplay but we will see when the game release.  What I find is that people are less critical of their platform of choice while they nick pick the other for anything preceived as a defect.
