They play both versions? Sweet
Sure, same complain I have about the game. Too much shoot bang not enough tomb raiding.

Man, I'm relistening to an old podcast where will smith is talking about tested being a tech site that's not actually cynical about tech.
How times have changed.

I just listened to last weeks bombcast. Does anybody know when it was established that Brad is the only one who is allowed to usher in the age of emails? I'm just currious how that came to be.
Ha I just listened to that too. I''m going through old bombcasts. Its weird hearing how much they've changed
A long time ago he would announce it himself. Now it's become sorta an in-joke.
Which is the sub par version in your opinion? The one that dips below 30 fps or the one that fluctuates between 30 and 60 so much that it looks juddery?
Both lazy cash in ports IMO that should have been $20 downloadables.
Not true.
As far as I know from reading the Digital Foundry article, the PS4 version averages around 52 fps, while the XONE averages around 30 or so. So it's not necessarily a jittery mess. At its worst, the PS4 version is smoother than the Xbox version.
Would've been more appropriate at $40 though.
Average framerate is ~50.
Also, I'm playing through it right now on PS4 and don't see juddering
well you are obviously wrong, also I am not buying either. Didn't even buy the original release. This is isn't the Tomb Raider I want. Might as well wait for the next Uncharted.
You mean you're not constantly spinning the camera around to make the framerate dip? What an odd thing.
How the hell does she keep a flawless body for her other games when she should be all scarred up?

I mean, if you're a heiress with millions of dollars you can probably get a dermatologist get rid of them.

He wasn't wrong. It's an Adam Savage website that's cynical of everything.
It's a reboot? Maybe they'll give her a wicked scar in the sequel, considering how much everyone talked about how she got impaled on that spike back when the game first came out.
They're not cynical of scalers. They think they work like magic.

I swear I only notice GB's 60fps player when they jump from a 30fps game to a 60fps one.
I guess I am the same with framerates in general. If its 30 I am ok, if its 60 I am ok. If it drops a few frames here or there I dont care but if it drops into the teens or the framerate randomly decides to half it self in random levels like MGS2 on Vita or Dark Souls then I notice.
Might get Tomb Raider. Need something to test if my PS4's disc drive actually works.

Jeff and Dave live on Mixlr: http://mixlr.com/jeff-gerstmann/chat
I just miss Dave in general.
He's on the latest tested podcast. Good show all around too.
Yeah I listened to that one.
And the casts behind that remain unlistened or unfinished >_>

Alot of Whiskey Media nostalgia recently in this thread..
Can they all just leave CBSi and Kickstarter another gaming website using Dave's company's tech as its backbone already?

I want to see what they think they can get with a Endurance Run Stretch Goal

Man, listening to this makes me miss Ryan's energy on the podcast so much...
When a tech website downplays tech advancements in stuff like game consoles you know it's time to hang up the spurs.
At least they talk about Norm's photography ad nauseum!

Yeah, the latest This Year really reminds you how great he was at this stuff. I feel like when Vinny hosts the podcast has moments where it feels like it's returned to form but that's the closest it's felt to the Ryan days.

Of course Brad immediately damage controls the differences in Tomb Raider. Never forget him insisting the consoles would be exactly the same during the PS4 reveal video.
Gotta stay positive (or neutral)
I understand why he does it because he doesn't really know since he hasn't played both versions a lot... but he should just not say anything along those lines. Stop with the guarded speculation, and stick with is known. Especially when it comes to power differences between the two consoles. That's just dangerous territory.

But developers are still trying to work out the full potential of the Bone, don't you know?
They sold their souls to John Davison. Who then took those souls and used them to start a mobile game company.
Isn't that his 6th startup?
