Multiplat games like AC4, CoD, and BF4 have been fine on 7th gen. So fine in fact, they were $60 and people still bought them.

If the developer and publisher of Dying Light doesn't feel their 7th gen port is worthy of $60. Well... that says something.

Why not? The 7th gen versions SHOULD be inferior to the 8th gen versions.

Why would you expect a game on a console some 10 times more powerful than its previous gen counterpart to be the same? Whether it is graphics or just the scale of the game, the 8th gen version should be superior to the 7th gen version. That should be our expectation. If that is the case and the previous gen versions require less work to build, then they can charge slightly less for it. Although I imagine the lower pricing is more for competitive reasons, but in either case, they've got the right idea.

I would hope they make the best product they can for 7th gen consoles, that would justify $60.

My concern is the $50 price tag might show they have little confidence in the product they're making for 7th gen consoles.

I don´t know what versions of AC4 BF4 AC3 SR4 FC3 you have played but the PS360 versions of those games ran like shit. 

Regarding Dying Light I would say it will be almost unplayable because its running on UE4 and I don´t know how compatible the engine is with 7th gen systems, I know its incompatible with the Wii U.  I think its cool that Warner is lowering the price point on those versions, they have probably outsourced those ports, just like they did with Mad Max.

I played the same versions the masses played. Is a frame rate that averages around 30 fps shit now? I think its okay, not shit.

According wikipedia, Dying Light is running on Chrome Engine 6. On a side note, Dead Island ran on Chrome Engine 5.

Dying Light is $50 on 7th gen and $60 on 8th gen.

That leads me to believe the 7th gen version will be an inferior product and not just visually.

If those bars i've seen in some gameplays that appear when you sprint aren't removed from the final version i think it is going to suck in all platforms

Are you sure? Man I have played AC3 on the PS3, and that game had framerate drops all the time, and same goes for the other games up there. Plus I have forgotten Tomb Raider that ran like shit on the 360.

Yeah you are right it running on Chrome Engine, what Unreal 4 game a I thinking off then?

AC3 had frame drops, but it ran fine for the most part. That game was a rushed piece of garbage anyhow.

I completed Tomb Raider on the 360, it ran fine and I don't recall frame issues.

Of all the games you mentioned, Saints Row 4 probably ran the worst. But I don't blame the consoles for that, the Saints Row series was poorly optimized for consoles.

In my opinion, if you're gonna say a game runs like shit then the frame rate should be choppy and almost unplayable. That's how Mass Effect 1 on 360 felt during gun battles.

I believe the UE4 game your are thinking of is Daylight.

Perhaps it has something to do with the trade-up programming? (I'm assuming both PSN and XBL offer this).
