Oh, we have. You're largely an Xbox guy, so I don't think you'd notice. I'm someone who has tended to the PS side of the forum since its inception, and believe me, there has been a substantial decline.

Sarcasm really doesn't work on the internet...or maybe I am doing it wrong.

Oh, okay. Yeah, I missed the sarcasm (except in the "fighting the good fight" part).
 
Even though I'm getting really excited about playing Forza 6 soon. (Counting down the days ) I did notice one of the coolest things I've ever seen in a racing game last night while playing drive club. This was a race on a Japan track. it started at dusk and goes into the dark of night with rain and noticed the lightining flash across the sky that would light up the entire track was freaking awesome!!! and also helped me see the turns that are coming up as well.. Lol.. I don't know I just thought it was pretty badass. As far as real-time dynamic lighting goes I hope future games in general borrow from driveclubs lighting system.
You can see what I'm talking about here near the end of the race. I recorded the whole thing. ....



Entreri, thanks for posting that vid, decent driving too. :wink:

Not going to s*** on your enjoyment as I do agree in part with what you are seeing and the effort put into the details like that. I will say that watching the video I also saw a fair number of things that weren't so hot too - graphically, the UI, and the main dig of DC the gameplay itself.

For a full-racing experience it can't hold a candle to The Almighty Forza. Hoping Gran Turismo can make a comeback this gen after flagging it last go round.
 
Only you would be confused about 20 being over 40% larger than 5 or actually think that 20 is only 40% larger? Sorry.

720p vs 900p = 56% difference. 1080 vs 900p = 44%. That was soooo confusing what he said. Who would have known he meant over 40%, right?

But 1080p=1080p.

Nice job on the race, and that lightening was way cool!

Only I would be confused, yet you spend so much time explaining it lol

Only for your sake. Because everyone else knows "over 40%" is exactly that: over 40%. You only would have thought otherwise, and only you would have thought he was saying 60fps is 400% greater than 30fps or whatever it was floating in your head. 400% isn't "only 40%" regardless so good luck with that too. But I better stop. Best not to feed the trolls.

Ohh no doubt . I totally agree with you. And when it gets dark in DC , its DARK. I find my self looking for the high beam button. Lol. It's pretty intense. Forza is my favorite racing series of any game . Have Forza 6 pre ordered/downloaded and ready to go!

My bad man. It it just seems the majority gamers that like Playstation over Xbox are accused of "fighting the good fight".

I mainly post here because the Sony forums are pretty much dead and I have no interest in X1 line up this year aside from 3 games. I am a PC gamer but a not many games are built from the ground up and I have no interest in Star Citizens .

Topic

Evolution Studios is pissing me off. Thought we'd have a new Motorstorm by now. I watched an interview and they said we probably wouldn't get a new Mortorstorm for another year or 2. They also seemed more interested in Drive Club 2 than Motorstorm 4. I'm pretty sure by now they could fake this ingame or something close to it.

60fps is over 40% more than 30fps like he said and not "only 40% more" like you said. Too hard to decipher that in your world.

Right lol, so that would mean you are wasting your time, yet you continue.

I don't see very much of that honestly. There are a few PS fans on here that are well respected. JinCa, Mangoes, KongRudy, hell even Andy leans that way. It's just a few that downplay anything Xbox related and bash statistics over your head.

Also it seems crazy to some that anyone could prefer the Xbox lineup with the power gap and a higher percentage of higher rated games. But yet some actually do prefer the X1 lineup.

I'm sad to hear Evo has no plans for Motorstorm. One of my favorite series from last gen.

Nope. That's still a generation away.

When Sony liess, they lie good.

I dont see it much either but it happens. JinCA, Mangoes and KongRudy hardly post here and the ones that do get lumped into one category. Andy is an exception not the rule.

Your point? Only fanboys care about high rated exclusves for ammo in the "console war". Sony games dont always rate high because they cater to a wider audience. MS, they play it safe.

The gaming indusrty could really use Motorstorm. Racing games in general are on a decline.

Been waiting for a new Motorstorm since 2013 . Not all bad news. Theres a chance it may be at E3 2016. Right now their focus is on DC.

:crazy:

I hope so. Motorstorm Pacific rift was one of last-gen's best games, and IMO, one of the greatest arcade racers ever.

Apocalypse was a bit of a let down for me, but I still have faith.
 
While you guys wait for your $90m budget shooterbang games. I await Persona 5.

ATLUS PLS!!!

I have no idea if I'd like the game or not (never played a Persona game and have a very hit-or-miss relationship with Japanese games in general), but I'm intrigued by it. It is one of the more unique, unconventional titles to hit this holiday, that's for sure.
 
This thread made me question my defination of size differences.

I meant, to say 1080p is only a little bit higher res than 900p (which has over 44% difference), is like saying 8" is a little bit bigger than 5"

I do not know about you guys, but if I have an 8", I will pull it out of my pants & swing it around every chance I have. and have people goes, "oh my god, thats massive!"



I know its vain, but if you have one of those 8"display cellphone, wouldn't you show it off every chance you got?

I know you're trying to be funny but that's not how it works. Unfortunately that's how some people think it does work.

How some people think it is.

Yeah, I tried that, but for some reason it just freaked everyone out.....

Yeah, and when you are talking pixel density, the differences are happening at a micro level. You can see it, but it's not very significant. You are still getting all of the detail. If you have to squint, or if you have to have it side by side, it's not an issue, imo.

It's more like we both have 8", but mine has a little bit more blur on it.

Might be an STD

Go play Persona 4, do it! You'll soon understand.

I can't, I don't have a PS2 or 3. Maybe I'll look at some gameplay videos. Otherwise, I'll just keep an eye on Persona 5.
 
You know, if people really cared about graphics here, they'd all be playing Uncharted 4. It's a good thing it hasn't released yet or the graphics comparisons would come to a screeching halt. And don't even being up Quantum Break because that game is just an animated movie plus gameplay.
