I thought XSS is targeting casuals and gamers on a budget?
most tvs for the last 5 years have a native 120hz refresh rate. only issue is hardly any of them have an actual working vrr implementation.
Pretty much.
I don't think that's true, I think the Metro Exodus was extremely close to each other (in terms of the possibilities on Console) and if they are bringing the features from Playstation to PC, I think they have it lock : )
I thought the XSS was supposed to hold back gaming and set us back a generation. Someone even said it would perform worse and worse as the generation went on. It's not supposed to do anything better than more expensive options. Nothing you said changes the fact that it is the cheapest current gen console capable of doing things more expensive consoles can't. And this is all without using its current gen memory saving features. A person choosing to spend to spend $250 on an inexpensive monitor to take advantage of the consoles features accentuates the consoles budget target not diminishes my dude.
What's the Dev time on this one? If it's less than 2 yrs I could see it as next Gen only
sony wont be showing off god of war any time soon if their last two years are any representation.
Didnt cory say that the boss fights between kratos and stranger were supposed to have them punch each other across the entire map into mountains? it would be amazing to have kratos and thor fly around all of midgard.
A State of Play is too small of an event to show of a game of such big magnitude, people even speculated last year that several next-gen games last year would be revealed during a State of Play event and they were not. Sony love all the attention, they're divas lol it's plausible to speculate that they'll show off all those games you listed in the coming months during their next big event to counter E3 and whatever Xbox has stacked in their deck.
We know Sony focuses on one big game at a time until that game is released, then they focus on the next one. And that makes me wonder, after Ratchet, which one is their next big game?
(my bet is on either Horizon or GOW) because I'm pretty sure whatever that game is it's going to be the star of their rumored summer event.
Played RE8 without my headphones the other day while they were charging. it was late at night so i had my soundbar volume down and i could easily here the damn coil whine. first time ive noticed it in a while.
i think he meant gameplay.
We have GT7 gameplay from June 2020.
Didn't you watch Sony's PS5 reveal stream last June? It was their 2nd game shown lol.
i stand corrected. never seen this video before
dont blame yourself, its the most forgettable gameplay demo of all time.
i stand corrected. never seen this video before
No they don't. They may advertise 120/240 motion interpolation, but they actually still only have 60hz panels.
we have no Horizon gameplay.
maybe back in 2016 but most tv's now made for mid to high end have been using 120hz panels for years.
you know i did but i dont remember any of that shit
Some very credible developers have said it would hold back gaming.
That never happened.
dont know. the entire trailer is cutscenes. the demon souls dragon bit is all CG and the returnal opening crash is also CG in the final game.
We've had this discussion before but no one but overzealous Sony fans made claims about the XSS 'holding back gaming'. No dev worth his/her salt would make that claim without fully utilizing the features of the device first. Especially on a dev kit that was incomplete. You are well aware that the XSS has not had all its memory saving features used.
Those teaser trailers do nothing but create false expectations. Today we know they are all outsourced CGIs, not even made by MS studios. For all complaining Nintendo and Sony got for showing just a logo(Metroid Prime 4/GOW Ragnarok), I'm beginning to think it's better to just know a game is officially being made with no other info at all than to watch something that won't be the final product for sure. Better wait for real gameplay when the game has enough polish like they did with GOW reveal on 2016.
There's no explicit 'ML acceleration' silicon, it's a set of Integer operations that mainstream CPU SIMD implementations had since mid 90ies (or if you want to look at consoles specifically - since March 2000). As this is part of execution units, there's no separate blocks to look for, silicon cost would be reflected on shader units being slightly larger (it's debatable if the difference would be big enough to easily measure off a die-shot, plus where'd you get a reference block that's identical in every other respect?).
There is written "small area cost" which at least to me implies some special part of the APU reserved for this...
