| JoeTheBro said: Resolution and framerate are two different things. It bugs me when people act like games should run at 60 fps because of next gen. It's never worked like that. 30 fps and 60 fps have been done in games generation after generation. Unlike resolution there's no trend of frame rate increasing. 5th gen 320p 30-60fps, 6th gen 480p 30-60fps, 7th gen 720p 30-60fps, and now 8th gen 1080p 30-60fps. "Even infamous doesn't run at 60fps" Of course it doesn't. Why the heck should it? |
Exactly. Not every game needs 60FPS. I agree it does improve some games, but to me, I like it when a game going for realism sticks to a smooth (and locked) 30FPS. It just looks more lifelike to me. Maybe because its closer to the 24FPS of film, I'm not sure. 60FPS in those types of games just looks too smooth/fast, and throws off the realism. I also prefer 1080p, since it gives me the best possible image fidelity on my 1080p TV. It amazes me what the visuals the PS4 can pull off at 1080p. Optimization for the win.
