i would think alot of people would disagree with you on that as MGS GZ proved that 60fps in an open is a must. But it was disappointing to see that puddles of rain didn't ripple when you stepped on it or even give a reflecttion of delsin when passing it


Are you serious?  Please tell you're not being serious? MGS GZ is the ONLY open world game on the current gen consoles that runs at 60 fps. Heck, if there was any genre of game that benifits from forgoing some FPS for the extra resolution it's open world gam

For me i prefer FPS over resolution nd if lowering the resolution  means 60fps for ISS then i would gldly have that trade off.  With MGS GZ being 60 fps,, alot of perople have bene praising how silky smooth teh experience is. Ask vgchartz community on their houghts of an open world a sbig as mgs and being 60 fps. Having 900p to 1080p o is  a small tradeoff i 60fps can be achieved . You brely can tell such a small difference.

:D

You've never played an single player open world game in your life have you?

There is a reason its 60 FPS on PS4/XB1 and 30fps on last gen consoles.

@Dr Henry -- I have been gaming since the atari age and yes i hav eplayed alot of open world games . Played all GTA , Oblivion, Skyrim ,RDR All infamous games, just cause games,, Crysis one was considered as open world, Assassin creed series to name a few. Normchacho was talking about MGSV GZ on current being the only open being 60fps per secong. Not the last geN. If he was referring to XBox 360 an dps3 version then he should make more clearer.



@zekkyou well for last gen,, they didn't have enoug power to run 60fps,, now they have .. For me ,, if a drop of resolution from 1080p to 900p means more visual upgrades or 60fps then yes i would take it as the that small drop of resoultion is insignificant especially if you play on 50 inch. can't tell a difference. I do agree ISS is beautiful . but it would nice if itr had dynamic reflectiosn especially if you go over a puddle or you look at teh galss of a buidlign. It feels liek delsin is a vampire as vampires don't have reflections XD.

Well I would prefer if the game ran at 8k I don't give a damn if it runs at 1/2 frames per second.

Why not downgrade to 0 frames? It'll be just a picture...but at least it'll be 8K resolution!!

SO MUCH FUN!



I just want to point out how great the AA is. I am a PC gamer, and I am so sick and tired of the jaggy look all console games seem to have. PLEASE LET THIS BECOME THE STANDARD!!!

I always trade some of the flashy quality for a more smooth look...



Prediction for console Lifetime sales:

Wii:100-120 million, PS3:80-110 million, 360:70-100 million

[Prediction Made 11/5/2009]

3DS: 65m, PSV: 22m, Wii U: 18-22m, PS4: 80-120m, X1: 35-55m

I gauruntee the PS5 comes out after only 5-6 years after the launch of the PS4.

Going below 1080p would be pointless.  Lower resolutions limit the amount of detail that can be displayed...

@dr henry lol that won't happen on consoles for a very long time. Lol you need a god like pc to do that! As i said dropping resolution to 900p cna lead to visual upgrade. Ryse is clear example of the benefits of dropping resoultion to 900p. But i respect your opinion. Hopefully in our lifetime gamers liek us can expereince 8k gaming eventhouhg its useless ot have such a high resolution.



@eddie--raja Have you seen ryse,, thats 900p game and before ISS came out ,, it was teh best looking game,, now its second lol. The drop in resolution in ryse allowed for a bigger visual upgrade adn the image at teh end was very very sharp even though it was a 900p. Just a small drop in resolution won't be noticeable unless you have at least 100icnh sreen or more let alone on a 51 inch tv
