Mr Puggsly said: I meant Halo Anniversary on the 360. That had to be 30 fps because of the visual upgrade. The X1 version acheived 60 fps because it was 360 assets. Halo 2 Anniversary was built around a 60 fps, but that limited resolution and potential graphics quality. It doeset have the same polish as Gears UE. Gears Ultimate looks more polished than Wolfenstein, that game also used a dynamic resolution that went well below true 1080p. AC Unitity was 900p and a technical disaster with constant frame dips. Games like TW3, Farcry 4, and Arkham Knight are amongst the most polished or technically impressive games you will find on 8th gen. I dont think Gears Ultimate is a technical achievment like those, but it trounces 7th gen graphics and its a nice looking 8th gen game. Gen 7.5 is simple ports with a higher resolution or frame rate. |
It still looks like a 7th gen game to me. It's the lighting and other rendering techniques that define a generation for me. Wolfenstein does look a gen ahead running on id tech 5. Gears ultimate still uses its 7th gen rendering engine.
