-Fucking unbelievable!! Dark sorcerer demo was done with early devkits. Only had 4 of the 8GB's available at the time.
-1 million polygons used for the scene and 67,000 polygons, 40 shaders, 150 megabytes of texture data, and 338 bones all were used on the goblin alone.
-Frames per second ranged between 30-90 and was not at all optimized.
-Running native 1080p, textures included
-volumetric lighting is completely dynamic between “movie” conditions and “studio” conditions. It can be switched at will within a single frame.
-No pre-rendering, post production, or video inserts.
-Represents the first iteration of QD's development cycle for ps4.
-Was using the same development pipeline as beyond on ps3

*edit* Ethomaz has just corrected the poly count it's actually: 700k polys for the goblin, 1 million polys for the sorcerer, 1 million polys for the devil and 1 million polys for the scene.

Just to make clear it is 700k polys for the goblin, 1 million polys for the sorcerer, 1 million polys for the devil and 1 million polys for the scene.

The article says like the total but it's not.

Impressive.

Watch Dogs, AC4, Killzone: SF are mine as of right now.  Will try drive club through ps+ and may pick up knack if on sale on amazon.  Then will get Battlefield 4 and some others for christmas.  Then infamous in February if that's when it releases.

I know I was hoping Infamous would be announced as a launch title.  But I'll be so busy with all my other games before it comes out.

Kz looks so good though. I'm not really into kz multiplayer though. I like bf(have you seen the multiplayer gameplay with the falling skyscraper, damn!) or cod more.

Yes that was damn impressive!  I may switch out AC 4 and get Battlefield 4.  I'm not completely sure.  I love AC though.  If I do we'll have to build a clan to play MP.

You could switch it out for ac4 since watch dogs is another open world game. Then again you already have kz as your shooter lol
