Tomb Raider Definitive Edition - PlayStation 4 = ~60fps, Xbox One = ~30fps

Im assuming you clowns havnt seen the ign update? Square enix have confirmed that BOTH versions run at 30fps.

Op was just using neogafs pathetic fanboyism to get hits on his website.

Pure comedic gold as always neogaf. 65 pages of sony fanboys clamoring over a false rumor and using it to boost their inner opinion of ps4 superiority. If people actually cared as much as you guys about a few launch titles resolution differences then xbox wouldnt be selling so many more games in NA than ps4. even the very games that you claim to be inferior on xb1 are selling better on the xb1

That news item says they both offer the 'same experience' and that their target for both platforms was 30fps (minimum) 'everything else is just gravy'.

It doesn't say both are 30fps.

You think this is bad, imagine the X1 version selling more than PS4's.

It's not like that's impossible. This won't have a huge effect on sales. But it is a huge effect on performance, and for people that care about performance and have both or at least the PS4, then the PS4 version is the one to get.

Am I dumb to prefer 1080p/30+ fps over 720/60??

No, I am the same way. I hate the look of 720p on my 1080p monitor, but I don't hate the look of 30fps. However, 1080p/60fps is even better.

I wanted to dominate the living room. Then I took an ESRAM in the knee.
30 vs. 60 fps is a bit more than a slightly higher framerate. Any they will both probably be variable which is disgusting in it's own way.

Whenever someone uses "slightly higher" in this context, a picture of Monty Python's Black Knight comes to my mind.

Surely it was written in jest? Right guys? ... Right?!
I don't think so. I don't think he's incorrect either, but I also don't think a lot of people really place much importance on what he's talking about when it comes to games. I have for example seen what Ico looks like at 60FPS, and I much prefered it at 30, probably for the reason he's talking about, but that's also one of the very few games where I think I'd feel that way.
 
"slight"?

"a little"?

It's double the framerate dudes, open your eyes. And people are suggesting the technical differences are being overplayed? smh

Edit: Damn you Vernia, that was like one second before me.

Sorry. : )

I think the technical differences aren't overplayed at least for the hardcore gaming community, but most people who chose XB1 over PS4 and don't plan on buying PS4 at all probably are aware of the technical differences at this point. I can't imagine they are shocked to see this news. Also, TR shouldn't suffer at 30fps, but obviously 60fps would feel better.

I like how the thread was re-opened just so that more rabbits can fall into the traps. Don't Starve NeoGAF Edition.

I don't quite see how XO gamers are going to be at a real disadvantage here. At least not enough to be beatdown by it. The game is going to be 1080p native on both consoles. The PS4 will simply enjoy slightly higher framerates because of the superior video card inside it and faster memory.

It's going to look awesome on both consoles. Neither are at any sort of disadvantage. And only those who dissect both with a fine tooth comb are going to notice any real differences.

Anything to feel superior I guess.

How in the wide world of fuckery is 30 fps ---> 60 fps "slightly higher framerates"?

Serious question. That's DOUBLE the framerate. How is that slight?

This is gorgeous. T_T

As for me, well I was going to buy the game anyway. The next-gen "sheen" that the new versions have, was enough to sell me. That and I just loved Tomb Raider to bits. But 60fps is one heck of a bonus.

There must be some new marketing push going on right now. This is not normal.

It's hunting season for the mods! They released a new batch of juniors to see who could survive the console war threads and now they are picking off the outcasts. Fun to be had all around!

What is it in hardware/code that is making developers to create Xbox One games perform terrible compared to the Playstation 4?
I dunno.
50% less GPU performance and 2,5 times less memory bandwidth maybe?

Still can't figure out how some people came to a conclusion that this won't matter for multiplatforms.

On the one hand, the game was designed to play well at 30 fps, which was in the original console versions. On the other, the choice between a version closer to 60 fps and a version at 30 fps (assuming there aren't jarring drops because of having more variation) is an easy one.

I had a lot of fun with the original release, so at least this is a multi-plat worth arguing over, in my mind. I hated seeing mediocre-to-bad games being aggrandized last gen because they were examples of console disparity.

Wow, looking back there are allot of greyed out names in this thread.

What happened to this thread and what's with all the bans?

I like to think threads like these provide a lot of good entertainment, a lot of heated discussion, but they are useful to promote GAF's careful moderation and "natural selection" which keeps this forum the best of the best :)

On topic: being a ps4 owner, and after I skipped this game last year, the news here only pushes me further to consider purchasing it... plus, as some have already said, it makes me very glad to see third-party developers pushing both consoles as much as they can and ignoring any platform-parity requests.
