Almost to 70 pages. What is goin' OHN IN HEEYA? Any additional devs corroborate the EDGE rumors?

WTF is wrong with your tag? When I hover over it, it keeps adding the words "junior".

I know that you are being factious but inefficiencies are bred from architectures like the X1 not the PS4...

That's something that's been bugging me for quite some time and I'm glad you brought it up. As a non tech person, one thing that comes to mind when people discuss managing the esram is all those gymnastics the system has to do to utilize the esram, those are all extra "steps" in the rendering of the game. To me that makes the system inefficient.
 
Well the same can be said about devs not using the PS3 hardware (SPE ) early on but i don't think i read a face off with him talking about that .
Still i had no problem with him until he stared doing next gen specs face off where it was rather easy to see bias in his writing and no fact checking .

The difference is it seems to be relatively trivial to use the eDRAM on the 360 (there were launch games that run at 720p with AA and alpha transparencies), but a massive fucking pain in the ass and difficult to use the SPEs*. It took years for devs to get to grips with the intricacies of the Cell, and only really Sony's first party studios that made the PS3 sing.

* I can't wait for this gen to end an I get my username back. Sony still haven't paid me royalties for it.

I'm starting to think he's not even a real junior member.

I look down my nose at junior junior members.
 
Hardware accelerated particles is old hat by now. That .gif is only impressive if you still live in the woods.
What's impressive is that gif is that each particle in the scene is a light emitter. which I think you ignored. This is why it looks so impressive compared to actual old-hat videos of GRAW and that dual teleport particle columns posted after it. (I also see that I'm really late with posting this).
 
I'm getting tired of seeing that .gif. No matter how many people parrot it, it's not impressive. At all. It's very, very basic use of particles that you will see in many, many games on both systems and has nothing to to do with each respective system's strengths.

It's beautiful. I could care less how impressive it is
 
Have console launches always been this miserable and I just haven't paid attention? I recall being so excited about getting the Gamecube, PS2, Xbox (and 360) N64 etc etc and going online when it was possible and people seemingly feeling the same way.

It's just the internet. More people are connected to online gaming message boards today than they were during previous launches so the cynicism is spreading.
 
I know! Haha! And it stops after a while! I guess one can't get any more junior than 65x junior.

I imagine there is a character count limit to the tags used here

Also people should be careful with poking and prodding the juniors for being such

It is frowned upon

Blame Space is probably technically a member to warrant having a tag in the first place but I wouldn't be surprised if he got that tag due to multiple occasions of being juniored for calling junior members juniors if you see where I'm going with this

There's threads on here where people are literally counting the days until next gen launches. This thread isn't a very good place to look if you're looking for excitement
 
Most of us saw this coming, but not sure how many noticed this happen. Let's spend a moment in silence to honor the newly departed. RIP Mr. President (Never thought I would ever get to say that).

PS4’s Architecture & 8 GB GDDR5 RAM Makes Techniques That Were Doable In Science Fiction – Unity CEO


Much has been said about the PlayStation 4′s 8 GB GDDR5 RAM – how much of it can be used for games, if it truly makes the console next-gen, and more. Given how there will be plenty of games this coming generation to take advantage of Unity, we thought to get the opinion of Unity CEO’s David Helgason on the matter.
On whether the 8 GB GDDR5 RAM and unified architecture posed an advantage to developers using the Unity Engine to develop on PS4, Helgason replied,
“Absolutely. This architecture simplifies development, and makes techniques that previously were in the realm of science fiction doable. We intend to make this extremely powerful and extremely easy to use, like everything else we do!”
