I agree with him in the fact that 60 fps > 30 fps in virtually all occasions and never 30 fps > 60 fps

Nice video. I agree with most of it. I would much rather have a lower resolution or less NPC's and hit 60fps. But the gaming majority nowadays are fucking stupid, obsessed with 1080p above all and shitting on anything a toggle lower on the vegetation scale. It's no wonder companies opt to make the versions as similar as possible.

As far as developers saying stupid shit in regards to frame rate goes, didn't the same thing happen with Killzone 6? I remember them saying something particularly stupid about frame rates.

I don't know if I would say developers nowadays "can't hack it". I think both of these consoles are just weaker than anticipated.



I'm not at all surprised with the topic of this week's Jimquisition considering that Jim previously complained about how Ubisoft keeps shafting PC gamers. I agree that 60fps is more important than hitting 1080p. It just feels a lot smoother with a higher framerate.



Great video XD



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine

Didn't Ubisoft originally say they were targeting 1080p 60FPS for both consoles? Now they say that their goal was always 30FPS... because its better for gamers? I really don't care that much but out of respect they need to stop lying. Just stop. Its getting really offensive now. Just respect gamers as intelligent people. Don't BS them. There is no point and it is really disturbing at this point.

There's really not much Ubisoft can do about this when Sony and Microsoft have been holding console gaming back for purely selfish and greedy reasons. Should've put out consoles that are capable of 1080p@60fps as a standard.


Yup, nailed in one. The xbone gpu is equal to a £120 gpu from....5 years ago! What the hell is their excuse?! They must have had to ask AMD to dig real deep into the skip and make them crap because you struggle to find hardware that weak nowadays.



Hmm video was pretty weakgeneric, IMO. I don't really care about performance, but I do get annoyed by devs thinking that we are dumb. I'm not gonna blame Sony because of their financial situation and the PS3. I blame the consumers.



Great video as always. I'll be passively boycotting the Ass Creed U on both consoles. 



If you make a game at 60 FPS and 1080p and it (somehow) manages to bug somebody, you can always turn it down in the options menu. What Ubisoft should have said is "we're sorry, but we don't know how to make 1080p 60 FPS work to our quality control standards on this hardware just yet, and rather than making everyone wait for the 1080p 60FPS to work, we're shipping it at 900p 30 FPS."

Was that so hard?
