HIghest settings at 1080p with advanced PhysX and Very High Tesselation. Easily.

Makes sense, ps4 is about 40% more powerful.

So while people laude Sony for their HW skills, do you really think we dont know how to build a system optimized for maximizing graphics for programmers? Seriously?
On topic, great that they achieved a nearly "rock solid" 60fps. Played them already on my PC so no buy for me. But it's definitely worth the price.

I preordered this package for only 27 euro for PS4, this has to be the definition of a "steal".
The Gamersyde footage looks so good, that eye candy at native 1080p AND locked 60fps. How?!
Metro Redux is anything but a cash grab, you gotta respect 4A Games.

bit out for a few weeks (aug 26.) unless you mean the original game(s)
Well, I can't call him names because he's a member here. So... lol, Albert Penello.
Dunno, man. Advanced Warfare looks pretty awesome.

That's an odd ball resolution for the XBO version.

I remember a thread about the rough working conditions these guys had to deal with in the past. True heroes of game development.
Hope things are better for them now.

At times, yes, it's still not finished tho. Look at the water for example:

I said free to play, not keep. Still far less money than ANY rental service ever, and the guy I responded to gave an example of a person paying $50 for seven years straight. Sorry, but you can't knock the tremendous value being given no matter how many little pro PC fibers are in your body.
Anyways back to the topic on hand, and that's the console comparison of Metro Redux. Didn't realize it's only $50, so I'll probably be dropping my Forza Horizon 2 preorder in favor of this at the Microsoft store. Free $10 gift certificate with preorder to.

It's not. Just a Dutch webstore that sells games. I ordered a copy.
Hook a dutch brother up. Could you send me a PM as well?

Natuurlijk jongen.
Yeah, I've seen the gameplay. Water doesn't look that bad there. Game just has a more -- next-gen look, if you will -- than Metro, to me.
I think they did a great job on the XB1 version also, seeing that it's a weaker system with slower RAM.

912p... this is a new one lol
Great job on PS4 version.

Are eastern European developers using some alien technology? Maybe they take math seriously on that side of the world...

Yeah, they seem to have definitely done a good job on the Xbox One. They got a 37,440 pixel boost with the June XDK, while stabilizing performance. I wouldn't be angry if Halo 5 went with a 1620 x 912 resolution to maintain a 60FPS target while pushing the visuals.

912, they're slowly getting there

We'll see soon enough. I'm going to assume they downgraded some things on both platforms for parity sake.

4a improved Metros resolution 12p with the new sdk. Bungie claim they improved destiny from 900p to 1080p with the new sdk. I think Destiny has a great art style, but it's far from a graphics horse.
I feel the opposite About Metro, I Think its a Graphically demanding game. I'm starting to believe Bungie had alot of headroom with the ps4, and they just didn't use it.

Destiny and Diablo 3 both went to 1080p. Destiny is 30fps though and D3 is 60 so it will be interesting to see what the frame rates are like. Metro is also 60 which would explain the difference.
I'd think Bungie possibly could have gone over 900p (but not up to 1080) and therefore decided to leave it at 900 because thats more of a standard resolution?
Either that or those MS engineers worked miracles, or it runs like shit.
We'll find out soon enough

We still have to wait for Destiny to release. Maybe they cut down effects AA AO etc.. If there is parity then yes, there must be headroom on the ps4.
Maybe the game being 30 FPS had a big role in it?
Buhbuh junior. Join date 2011, you're still nothing more than a youngin.
'Albert Penellol' maybe okay?
Well GCN has not very good tessellation performance.
So it is a OK to shit on PC with a cherry picked scenario, yet it is against the rules to call them out for it?!!
P.S PC should be included when talking about Redux, it is also coming out on it (it is stupid to try to block and dismiss comparisons you do not like, be it XB1 vs PS4 versions or PC version vs console versions).
Wasn't there something about the original running as if it were in 3D even while it wasn't and taking double the performance or something to that effect ? And there was a config tweak that needed to be done to properly disable it ? I don't quite remember but maybe someone does.

Uhhuh, but less action and more survival horror.

Nah, they both drop in different areas, and pretty much even from what I can see in the DF framerate video. Most of the drops come from cinematics anyway which wouldn't affect controls, in fact the tower collapse has more dips on the PS4 side for some reason.
This is probably the first XBO game that pushes 60fps and has higher than 720p resolution. Either they hit 60fps and keep the res at 720p (Killer Instinct, Battlefield 4, CoD:Ghosts, MGS:GZ, etc.) or they hit 1080p but at 30fps, like Tomb Raider and others. Of course I am talking about engines that push visuals like Frostbite, Crystal Engine or 4A Engine; seems like SDK tweaks have allowed to push the framerate to 60 and 900p. I'm just saying this because they make it sound like SDK changes have allowed a boost from 900p to 912p which is a stupid thing to say.

Uh, screen tearing... thats normally a no go for me these days, but i will wait to see how often it happens. If its very, very rare than maybe i will be still there, but if its too offensive i will pass.
Also pretty curious to see how Redux fares against Redux PC and 2033/Last Light PC (especially texture/asset quality).

Judging from the video i guess not too much.
I remember hearing about it but it was never turned on for me (checked the config file and all that). I think it only turned on for some people under specific circumstances.
