You're living in the dark ages in terms of set-ups that's why.

You couldn't have it any easier than the way I have my home set-up.
Everyone has a smart phone, my PC is capable of transcoding multiple 1080P video streams without breaking a sweat.
Thus, with a couple of button presses' on a phone every TV in my home essentially has access to about a thousand different movies/tv shows on demand, my PC automatically records shows that are of interest like clockwork.
Just a few button presses on the phone, choose a movie and my PC handles the rest, without any user input.

As for gaming, I can switch between my TV and my triple monitors with a single button press on the keyboard.
Steam, Windows, everything updates everything automatically in the background, so you never turn it on, try and jump into a game and have to wait-what-feels-like-forever for a patch or to install a game or have to change discs, just a double click.

If I can get a 5 year old mentally disabled girl to jump on my PC, fire up a game of Dirt 2 and play a game with a steering wheel, I'm sure anyone could.

Steam with Big Picture mode and a controller gives you a console-like experience too if you want it on a TV.
For me, PC gaming is Cheaper, more convenient and the games look prettier and has more content thanks to things like mods.
Everyone is differen't however.

Isn't it obvious that DF is just on damage control. Never going to trust a ''next gen analysis form them'' when no other review has complained about the frame rate and visuals to the lengths that DF have done.

It seems DR3 is being let down by some glitchy tech, no big deal after a patch or two and it certainly seems like a lot of fun, which is why the reviews are higher than Killzone and Knack.

I'm just surprised that Selnor isn't quoting this review all over the place

From Eurogamer's review:

You never escape Dead Rising 3's technical shortcomings, particularly the slowdown,...The controller lag is jarring as you wrestle Nick around...The technical aspects of games are covered separately in depth on Eurogamer by Digital Foundry.

Now a comment made by Eurogamer (Oli) on the article's comments:
In the case of Xbox One we're only reviewing from final, release versions. Dead Rising 3 came in a retail box and had the launch patch applied before we started reviewing.

The concept of smoothness or framerate is highly subjective and depends of the reviewer and of the game. I remember playing GoldenEye007 on N64 and the 15fps-ish at time never botheved me because the game was great and fun. Some may downote a game because they found occasionnal framerate drops, others may score highly because of the low framerate like with Shadow of the colossus.

You can patch framerate drops if they are occasionnal or occur during some specific moments (as bugged auto-save or grenade smoke in PS4 COD) but just watch DF videos and you'll see the game is hovering between 22-25fps most of the time when outside the city among zombies with drops (from 25fps) down to 16fps. Sometimes there aren't even one single zombie on screen. It seems the problem comes as much from the open world game than the number of zombies.

Bah. Wish it had a PC release.

All the performance issues would have been a non-issue.

As always, if it likes anything Xbox, "it's biased"....

A launch game that is rushed. Really! A patch is already announced.
