Comparing 1080p gaming to a 1080p upload of higher res footage?Even today's games look "great" in some cases, but at least we can see them at full visual fidelity. Careful now, your almost validating the existence of Lockhart / 1080p as a good idea, some will see this as a betrayal and turn on you.
Comparing 1080p gaming to a 1080p upload of higher res footage?

Okay dis legendary
Were there this many people complaining about 1080p/30 when the Xbox next gen showcase happened?
How though?That's something different and you know it!![]()
How though?
I didn't know we were going with that native. But I guess it is just as possible to be ps fanboys and as it is to be Xbox fanboysDude, you know nothing of PS fanboys, do you?
They always demand more than the competition!![]()

Were there this many people complaining about 1080p/30 when the Xbox next gen showcase happened? Because afaik all broadcast from videogame publishers are like this.
Fun Fact about the 1080p thing, only browsers that even support 4k are ms edge (new and old) and safariFirefox and Chrome all are 720p afaik.

When you think it can't get any worse in July...

no, it was 4K@60fps. However, this was not the default, you had to go to settings during the stream and change the quality to 4K@60fps manually.
What? No, this only applies to netflix - due to copyright - but for youtube it's easily possible, you can even watch 8K (7680x4320@60fps) on youtube with chrome, try it out yourself:

Sony can fuck right off with there sjw bullshit. After pulling that move last week they lost me as a buyer and I'm sure many others

Thanks for that video. I found a couple like that for my OLED to display sometimes. I wonder if next-gen will fully take advantage of such quality.
Probably will at some point - but I don't think there are any mobile or laptop devices that have 8K resolutions lol. There is a 8K monitor, but its way out of reach and YouTube is more of a mobile platform more than anything. It's nice that they have the option, but the people who can actually watch 8K/60 is like 1% so it would not be worth it right now.
Hah indeed. I don't think we can really take advantage of seeing 8K with our own eyes. I'm fine with 4K at this point.
Baring in mind that we've had comments about the SSD in the PS5 enabling certain abilities not available to other consoles, do you think we might get text on some of the games saying 'Only possible on the PS5'?
So there will be no countdown? No set time that it starts? No live comments? Millions of people won't be signing in to watch it at the same time?
If you want to be pedantic, this will potentially be a live premiere.
Regardless, even though the PS5 GDC conference was pre-recorded, they still live-streamed it. The reason for that is security since youtube live premieres require you to pre-upload a video to the YouTube servers.
You can now go back to your fantasy land with your newfound knowledge.
To say that wouldn't they have to prove that whatever we are seeing is only possible with a certain bandwidth threshold?
No. Its not live. It will never fit the definition of a live event no matter how far you move the goal posts.
We have YouTubers pumping out 4K videos on a weekly basis from their basements and you're trying to tell me that a multi-billion dollar corporation that specializes in this shit cant throw together a 4K/60 video for the premier of their most successful product and cash cow?
There is some major fanboy mental gymnastics in play here. Sony hasn't shown shit in months except a logo and a controller. The reason we got from them is that they wanted to make sure it was a professional presentation up to their high standards. You gobbled that up. I don't blame you for that as PS5 is the biggest Sony product in years and they want to get it right. Then after being delayed a whole week for PR reasons, we get this latest excuse for a video in 1080p/30. And there response? "Trust us, these games will look great on your 4K [Sony] TV's!!" They didn't even say, "Don't worry, most of these games will be running at 4K/60 fps." No, we're told it will look great on our TVs.
So the reason for the Sony slow-walking PS5 info is because they wanted a high-quality event...and then we have a pre-recorded video at 1080p/30. How can you reconcile those two things?
They did this to thwart pixel and frame rate counters. They knew the day after this event, Digitial Foundry will be scouring the footage for a 2 hour special dissecting each demo and anything below 4K/60 fps will be disappointing.
Am I missing something here? This appears to be in 4K.Were there this many people complaining about 1080p/30 when the Xbox next gen showcase happened? Because afaik all broadcast from videogame publishers are like this.
Where's confirmation of this. Sony seemed to suggest that the event was recorded in 1080p/30 due to Covid. And there's no indication that there will be a 4K upload later. We're just told that the game would look great on our 4K TVs. I'm sure they will. Even 1080p games look great upscaled on my 4K TV.![]()
4K/60 streams will be uploaded at a later time. 1080p/30 uses much less bandwidth and decreases the likelihood of the streaming being lost.

Oh I thought this was browser-wide a problem. Gonna double check that, but thanks for the infono, it was 4K@60fps. However, this was not the default, you had to go to settings during the stream and change the quality to 4K@60fps manually.

Invent a time machine, someone
i'll fugging do it
Just saw this on Twitter. Never saw this one before. Already confirmed as fake? Colorscheme of the DualSense looks different from the trailer but maybe just different variants from the beginning.
