Yeah i downloaded it... but also deleted it before playing it based off of all the video footage released shortly after it came out. Looks neat, just didn't feel the need to play it myself.

i hope you have a good PC because once this cross gen phase ends, there will be more and more 30fps console games as the gen goes on.

If that happens and games i really want like starfield for example happen to be 30fps only, then i will sell my XSX and buy a PC again, i used to be a PC gamer from 2005-2020

Pretty sure Starfield will be 60fps, or at least have a 60fps mode. I think it will be more games coming in the second half of the gen, games that really start pushing the systems hard.
I think the best we will get is if games still come with a 60fps option, but i certainly wouldnt be surprised if all these different modes we get now in console games kind of slowly go away once cross gen ends.

Nah. The demo is literally all about what's going on under the bonnet. They even have a toggle switch that displays that lol

The very best real-time graphical demonstration ever released.. a free little gift that gave us better tech, graphics and physics than fully fledged, hyped games years in the making..
Never thought i'd say this, but thanks Epic. This thing never fails to impress the living shit out of every person i've shown it to.

I don't mean the graphics, I was talking about the physics. I couldn't careless about the graphics... I'm only interested about the gameplay. And it was disappointing

You are only interested in gameplay in a Tech Demo.. the most interactive Tech Demo ever, also.
Do you undestand how retarded this sounds?

Umm you're shite? How can you say its a shallow tech demo. what the hell are you comparing it to? i have the feeling you have not seen many tech demos. its literally one of the biggest and best tech demos ever release to the public. Where do you get that its shallow?

So would you guys rather have games performing like the Matrix demo?, 1080p and 25-30fps framerates?.
I dont mean that in a diksih way, i'm honestly interested in how some poeple on this forum view this kind of stuff.

It's a tech demo, not a game. You play it to get a glimpse at what things will look like in the future. Obviously You'd never actually play a game with that low of res
Represent.
Represent(ative) of bad opinions
People are hungry for the next level of visual fidelity. Demo was fucking incredible. Future looks bright.

DUDE...................One of my favorite games of all time was this on the PS2.
And it ran like this................
So you already know what my answer is!!!!!!!!

This Demo features an entire, fully real-time photorealistic city with infinite geometry down to the most extreme close-ups of every little asset.
All paired with traffic and physics, RT reflections and real-time GI, at actually good IQ and stable performance (on PS5, unless you create mayhem or drive in very particular sections of the map).
An actual game could easily deliver double performances by cutting things the player would never even notice.

The whole demo is underwhelming, you can't do anything in it, you can't interact with anything apart from driving a car and even that is shit. Try comparing it to BeamNG and you will get an idea. It's a graphical showcase, nothing else.

lol Of course not. 30 FPS locked is my standard. 1080p I HATE but this 1080p is NOT the same as native 1080p. I have stopped playing games like DriveClub, Bloodborne and Batman AK on my PS4 because of the shimmering and I love those games to death. Thats how much I hate it. But the 1080p with TSR upscaling has almost no shimmering. It is as pristine as a 1440p image.
Just for shits and giggles, I switched Horizon on PC to 1080p and it was a blurry disaster. Matrix is actually very crisp.
Will they ever get to a smooth 30 fps? Who knows? Maybe in a non-open world game. The most impressive thing about the Matrix demo is that it is an open world. No BS linear demos like those Infiltrator and Samaritan demos. This is a fully playable open world you can even fly in. It has full hardware acceralted GI, Reflections AND shadows. it has chaos physics that result in some dynamic spectacular crashes not just in the on-rails sequence but also in the open world.
Besides, if people want 60 fps they can always buy a PC.

Its interesting you said that because i'm on PC so obviously havent played the Matrix demo, but i have watched quite a few high bitrate vids of it, and the low image quality, and artifacting on distant objects really stood out ot me, especially when you campare it to say a dynamic 4k game.lol Of course not. 30 FPS locked is my standard. 1080p I HATE but this 1080p is NOT the same as native 1080p.

I play at 1080p on PC anyway as i prioritize framerate and settings over resolutuon, so i have no problem with 1080p. A stuttery 30fps is a different thing though.

Bullshit dude. Its a tech demo, not a game. or a "demo" which is a vertical slice of a game. you need to understand the difference.

Didn't Howard hint they he preferred pushing graphics and thought 30fps was fine for Starfield? Might need to start trying to get a good GPU.

Also, yes. It's a tech demo. It demonstrates what is achievable in realtime with some of the features of UE5 in combination with some of the best talent in the industry. Nothing more, nothing less.
It doesn't represent normal games because normal games are made differently, with a different number of people, with 'proper game design', different budget allocations and simply different goals.

I did like that better. But if "some" super high graphically instinctive games moving forward were going to be 1080p and running at 25-30 fps, but looking like the Horizon Forbidden West CGI commercial then I'd take it in a heart beat.
I'd take this at 1080p at 25-30fps

You really don't understand what is a TECH demo.
Here is a tip. It's just to show off graphics tech. That's it.

Great numbers for a great tech demo. Literally the most impressive stuff I've seen from nextgen. Looks like a movie at times.

This demo was said to leave enough on the table for game mechanics and all that. I think we'll see stuff this good down the line, probably even better looking. Hoping we still get to have trees AND leaves, but we'll see. LOL

But it's not, have you even played it yourself? GTA IV has better damage/deformation model.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
As many PS5 / Series console owners that can, should check this out. For the spectacle and sense of amazement if nothing else.
Truly the most next gen thing I have seen so far.
