Do you guys know if 1360x768 resolution is available?

This is going to be great. Thank you, Sega!

Wait, this has achievements? Can the PS3 version get some of that love now?
It's still surreal seeing this game on PC after all this time. I haven't played this game in so long I'm looking forward to playing through it again (and the DLC, which I never got).
Only 1080p60fps? :x It sounds like given how well optimized the port is, you could probably hit 2kx120fps on a decent rig. Bake that bread with all the Ps!

The most amazing takeaway from Durante's PC Gamer article is the knowledge that my ULTRABOOK can probably run the game fine at 720p. That's crazy.

Pre-Loaded and gifted to 3 friends, I'm ready!
Also, great to see my worries about the canvas and shadows be unfounded. Game looks fucking sharp!

How anime is this game? I tried to play 2 on the psp and I just couldn't do it, which sucks though, because I thought the pseudo RTS/TPS thing with different classes was awesome.

This was one of my five favorite games of last generation. I can't wait to replay it on PC.

Can't wait to see if my laptop can run this...
Yeah, if you have a Haswell Ultrabook it will almost certainly run well, considering that even my lowly Ivy Bridge based one was playable.
It's still pretty anime, but it handles the tropes way better than the second game does. If that put you off about 2 (and I can see how it could), I would still give the original a look.
It's less "anime" than 2, and also a better game.

I hope the game is great, never had a PS3! Looks great though since I love SRPGs 
i like you
Thanks Durante! It's nice to have some quality bed time reading. Also very late thanks to the GAF opinion from long ago. Thanks SEGA, and thanks to Grief.exe and the rest of the SEGA Ports folk for getting me interested and pushing for this.
Now. Very happy to hear about the port quality and features. Just need some of that sweet preload to finish ready for tomorrow!!

Thanks Gaben/Valve if you secretly did something and also plan to get Vanquish on Steam too
Shadow maps scalling with resolution is really nice.
Yeah I just got to that part. That's exactly the same specs as my Surface Pro or a Mac Book Air from 2012. To have VC on the move makes it all the more exciting for me.

It's not nearly as anime as 2. It does have it's moments and it does wallow in it's tropes, but the narrative is so much more interesting than 2's simply because it takes things seriously instead of laughing off dire situation.
Both VC2 and the VC1 anime wash away a lot of the direness of their respective situations by reveling in anime tropes. It's a real bummer.
If anyone paid a lot of attention to the GeDoSaTo github page they could have had that spoiled for them:Oh, and if you want to improve your image quality further by means of downsampling, or want to be able to toggle the in-game HUD and take HUDless screenshots, note that the latest version of GeDoSaTo includes a profile for the game
Cool.

Note that this is also related. If I have the time I want to do a short writeup on my blog about how the game renders, it's pretty wild.

Had this in the PS3 backlog for quite some time, might start it when everyone else does on PC...
Nice OP and PC Gamer article
Can you help us understand why you were using 4480x2520 res in that article? Are there particular multiples of your native res that work well with down sampling? I have a 1080p monitor and a GTX970 so am curious to play with their new downsampling support.

Should I be able to hit solid 60fps on this with my 750ti downsampling from 4k, or ought I stick to 1080p native? CPU is an FX6300, in case that happens to make a bit of a difference.
It's the largest "neat" multiple of my native resolution (2560x1440) which still allowed me to maintain a constant 60 FPS (outside of fullscreen explosions) on my 770. 5280x2880 was a bit too much, dropping into the 50s.
I'd try 2560x1440.

Damn it's maddening to know I've got Valkyria preloaded on my drive and I can't touch it until tomorrow.

lol, Great article Durante.
This is gonna be the hypest~. Great screenshots, mostly excellent interface, and it's doing quite well sales-wise (given that Steam's Top Sellers is based on revenue, not quantities sold...and this is counting the triple-A games).
hot damn, everything in that sounds great. what other games used the canvas engine? seems pretty impressive to spit out a game that looks that good and isn't overly taxing at the same time
