No need to scale down for 360... both games are handled by different devs with different engines.

Of course it needs to be scaled, by comparison at least :P Unless they are planning on developing two completely different games that just happen to share the same name the 360 version will need to be scaled down (lower quality textures, car models, world complexity etc). The game being handled by two separate developed with native engines simply means the game will be properly optimized for both rather than simply being a back port.

If the X1 version is 1080p/30fps, then the 360 version is, by comparison, going to be scaled down a lot further. At 1080p/60fps though, they can make up for a lot of the hardware difference with just the performance change to 720p/30fps.

Like i said, i do personally hope it's 1080p/30fps (still a very real possibility), but targeting 60fps would just make the 360 version look less butchered by comparison.

Should turn out great either way :)

Images look very nice, DriveClub is going to have a hard time competing with Forza later this year. Hopefully the freshness of DriveClub will sway some sales it's way.


LOL no, Forza will have zero impact on drive club, install base of ps4 will be near double by the time this comes out, forza is not exactly a sales beast, project cars and the crew are more competition then forza. Different systems, different racers.

I'm talking about total sales, you know competing in sales with Forza.

No it isn't, DC is clearly aimed at PS4 users, Forza is 360 and x1, no one with a ps4 is going to run out buy an x1 for horizon, it is not a system seller.

Those are not bull shots at all xD

It's looking good though.

Im meaning to say Driveclub is going to have a hard time selling more units than Forza. Not that they're competing with the same users.

Turn 10 Playground Games sure knows how to take some sweet looking bull shots (just like Polyphony).

Of course it's on 360 too, but PS4 dc could easily outsell horizon on x1.

Hmmm they haven't announce the framerate yet. I expect some major crow eating if they announce 30 fps.

From who?

Anyone who bashed Driveclub for being 30fps then turned around and praised FH2. 

I really do not get it.

Why on earth are you comparing a straight-track racer to an open-world game and then stressing about framerates?

Yeah I can tell.

Read my post again. I'm talking about people who bashed Driveclub for being 30fps and said things like "real racers should be 60fps". If FH2 turns out to be 30fps and those same people now have no problem with it, then that's the hypocrisy I was talking about.

Get it?



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Let me put it this way, do you give people who said that any great crediblity when you consider their views?

If not, why is this the sort of thing that even needs to be brought up?  It only perpetuates discussion of a ridiculous comparison.
