That's a great one to rent or even buy, but let's not forget about good 'ole MindsEye.

PS5 would drop to 720p in heavy combat scenarios as well. To most, the more consistent framerate will be preferred on Series X, which the PS5 still has a lot of consistency issues for some reason. In fact, most players went to the 30fps mode on PS5 just for the consistent framerate lol.
FF16 in a lot of ways is a technological mess.

Yup. It has been noticeable. Despite everything it is still the best supported Xbox console by Japanese developers. I feel like Japanese publishers and developers have been supporting Play Anywhere more than the major Western publishers too. Though I feel like we focus too much on Japan only, Microsoft is making progress with Asian developers as a whole.

"It stayed well above 75 FPS, and calmer sections saw it reaching 90 FPS for extended periods of time."@SamuelTolbert played Gears of War: Reloaded on the ROG Xbox Ally X, and he's come away seriously impressed.

So basically it is a mess on everything? Lol.
Edit - Yeah, Xbox Series FPS is way more consistent, basically locked 60fps in combat and exploration according to DF but the 720p is ugly. Lmao. So either you accept an ugly Xbox version or a poor framerate PS version. Either way you lose, damnit Square Enix, Lol. Performance aside though, I really think this should have launched on Game Pass.

Xbox can finally say "next year" while also having an insane "this year" 🥹

| Ryuu96 said: I imagine Developer Direct 26 will be a bit different next year with GTA 6 right around the corner, Developer Direct usually focuses on things releasing in the 1st half but I could see 26 Developer Direct having a more even mix of 1st half/2nd half. Developer Direct in 2025 had Ninja Gaiden IV which did release in the 2nd half but the other 4 were all 1st half titles. I expect Xbox's 1st half in 26 to be lighter than in 25 due to GTA 6, I think maybe 2 titles. State of Decay 3 and Kiln? Clockwork Revolution and Kiln? I think for maximum hype in celebration of the 25th anniversary, all of the core four (Halo, Gears, Fable and Forza) will be in the 2nd half, one after another until the eventual culmination to November 15th and the release of Halo CE Remake. Ideally they'd be one release per month (August, September, October and November). I don't think Forza Horizon 6 and Fable will be in the Developer Direct because I think we'll now get an Playground Games Direct after the June showcase like we just got an Obsidian Direct which had two games in it (The Outer Worlds 2 and Grounded), I think after the June showcase we'll have a PG Direct with Fable and Forza Horizon 6. So Developer Direct 26 could be something like Kiln (Shadow Drop), State of Decay 3, a 3rd Party. Maybe Clockwork Revolution if it is releasing sooner than expected. Maybe Gears E-Day as the 2nd half title like Ninja Gaiden IV. I also think Gears E-Day will be one of the closest to release given all the rumours that it was releasing in 2025 but maybe it suffered a small delay and then they just decided to punt it even further back due to GTA 6 and for maximum engagement for the 25th anniversary celebration. |
I mean some of the most popular release windows for video games are February, March, and April. GTA isn't releasing until the tail end of May (and that's of course assuming they don't delay it again). There's no reason the January direct couldn't really be business as usual. Not like everybody's gonna stop playing games until GTA releases.
