NX Gamer PS5 Full Spec Analysis

in Sony Discussion 6 hours ago

EricHiggin said: I'm not saying Halo Infinite on XBSX won't be a better version of the game. With the new engine that's being built for that game, odds are this is the extra upfront work I was talking about that's being done for that game. As much as reasonably possible anyway. It's the XB flagship franchise, so it would make sense to put the effort in for that specific game. I'm curious...

Doom 2016 is so much better than Eternal

I like them both however a little disappointed they took the Pistol out of Enteral.. many times I have ran out of ammo and punching things without Blood Punch is useless. ...

EricHiggin said: I was tying this to your game engine point. If MS gave one of their studios an unlimited budget to make a brand new engine, specifically to make games the best they could possibly be, to show off what XBSX can really do, would that studio build the engine with the rest of the MS hardware ecosystem in mind, or specifically for the XBSX? The less hardware you have to worry...

Best Water Effects in a Video game

in Gaming Discussion 17 hours ago

@CGI-Quality Metro Exodus is such a good looking game, I haven't gotten up to the part where there is water yet, however I am not surprised that game would be in discussions for best looking anything. I basically call the game the Crysis of today. Everything is just done so well and detailed. ...

Best Water Effects in a Video game

DonFerrari said: The first water effect that I remember loving was on FF IX opening scene. Then I totally got nuts with FF X.Nowadays water is so well represented that I don't think of a specific case of being best. But yes I have seem SoT mentioned as best representation of water by quite a few people. I honestly haven't played those games, I might just check them out to see what...

Best Water Effects in a Video game

in Gaming Discussion 18 hours ago

I love a game that does good water. Some games still put effort in the water while others tend to forget it as its not as important. Seeing games from Wave Race 64 to Crysis to Wind Waker etc. A game I revisit often is Sea of Thieves, a game that arrived on the market 2 years ago in 20/3/2018 which has arguably the best water effects we have ever witness in a video game.. and its not just...

REmake 3 discussion thread.

in Gaming Discussion 19 hours ago

Played a little bit of the game last night and I must say.. I am a little disappointed. The gameplay and combat is fine.. however the direction it takes and how it implements the story is a little.. what's the best way to put it.. try hardish. The game tries so hard at times I feel its cringe worthy just like how RE6 is. The start of the game basically just tries too hard and the acting is off...

NX Gamer PS5 Full Spec Analysis

in Sony Discussion 22 hours ago

EricHiggin said: True next gen games will certainly be something to behold, whenever they arrive, but that's part of my point. It's going to be much harder for MS to achieve that compared to PS, assuming PS will have true PS5 exclusives right off the bat. That doesn't mean MS can't do the extra transitional work to make it happen sooner, it'll just be more of a headache. It's one thing if...

NX Gamer PS5 Full Spec Analysis

EricHiggin said: Power matters more if you're lacking elsewhere. MS has lacked in high end titles so they need something else to boost their image. Nin doesn't care about performance much because they don't need to for more than a few reasons. SNY cares enough and also understands what too much of a hardware power focus can do, or can't. MS also needs to strengthen AAA games if they want...

Intrinsic said: Azzanation said: I think a lot of people underestimate the power factor of a console. Power doesn't technically make a console the best selling in its generation however its a huge boost to the marketing, which has a huge potential to boost sales if done right. Lets not forget that the common gamer also plays 3rd party games. The PS4 outsold the XB1 based on its...

NX Gamer PS5 Full Spec Analysis

in Sony Discussion 1 day ago

EricHiggin said: I'm not saying that when DF goes to compare third party games against both, that the analysis and results will be identical. There will be differences when you get more technical about it, but to the common console gamer, those differences are likely to minor enough for the first while that it won't make a difference to them. What will matter much more than that is the...

NX Gamer PS5 Full Spec Analysis

in Sony Discussion 2 days ago

I don't see why this is still a debate. On paper the X is more powerful while the PS5 is faster. However stuff we are still learning is MS is rumoured to have a better compression solution and might be easier to develop for in comparison to the PS5 etc.Like most console generations, hardware is only as good as the developers using it. 12 TF or a super fast SSD is useless if devs don't optimise...

PS5 vs XSeX: Understanding the Gap

in Gaming Discussion on 27 March 2020

Intrinsic said: Jranation said: Why is the acronym for Xbox Series X XseX? Sounds a bit rude. Don't blame me... tell MS to name their consoles better. X360XB1XB1SXB1SSADXB1XXSXXSS?(lockhart) And the shocking thing is that they all have really cool project names. I wonder what they would call the eventual mid gen refresh. Xbox series X two? Xbox Series XX? Xbox series Xb?...

Nintendo Issues Takedown Mario fan made games In Dreams (PS4)

in Gaming Discussion on 27 March 2020

DonFerrari said: You are making a ludicrous case. If Sony hired people to do it then it isn't a fan made product, period. You claimed that people would been buying dreams because of these levels and can't prove so you are changing the goalpost on it, ok. You also claimed that if Dreams was available on Switch they wouldn't have ordered the takedown. Then just ignored the scenario of...

in Gaming Discussion on 26 March 2020

DonFerrari said: Still you would need to prove the sales that were made because people wanted to play Mario games on PS4. Second you would need to prove that dreams have a "content creating tool using IP" from Nintendo. Because it doesn't, people can create whatever they want with the tool, but there isn't any Nintendo IP on the tool, if there was they could ask for sanction against sony...

Nintendo Issues Takedown Mario fan made games In Dreams (PS4)

in Gaming Discussion on 25 March 2020

HollyGamer said: Azzanation said: Because it entices those gamers on the PS4 to not buy a Switch because they have Mario games through Dreams. Thats the entire point of why Nintendo make these decisions. They want you to buy thier stuff to play their stuff. It makes alot of sense to remove it. I was in a debate the other day about some random saying he doesn't need to buy Ori 2...

What? if PS4 fans want to play Nintendo games they can just buy Switch (like many did) and it happened many PS4 player buy Switch. It has nothing to do with this discussion.

No suprise really, its Nintendo, they are very aggressive with these things. Only solution would be if Dreams was available on the Switch than there wouldnt be a problem i wouldnt think, unfortanunly they wont do that. ...
