Exactly. It’s more than shocked me to see how Ubi trashed the PC version of WD for Sony. Woww

Lol, good luck with that. By the time console optimisation catches up to the raw power of PCs, they’ll already be visibly out of date!

However, that’s not to say the console games won’t look pretty or amazingly beautiful. With the right combination of programming trickery and art style, console games can easily be gorgeous.

But your typical life stimulation or modern military shooter (or pretty much any multiplatform game with a non simplistic art style) will almost invariably look better on PC, provided the publisher doesn’t hobble it. >_>

That makes sense. I guess 343’s figuring in the 4k adoption rate as well. But gimme 2k over that old engine as an option. I’d love it. Wanna experience what PC players see……without spending what they do!

It’s as you said, the switchable graphics engines. Both are running at the same time, so it takes up more resources. True they could just take it out but I think that the feature in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary for the Xbox 360 was pretty popular. Eventually switching back and forth got old, I’ve played the originals enough times to know what they looked like thanks.

At the same time, I don’t think market adoption for 4K TVs is high enough to justify scrapping an enjoyable, if novel, feature that they knew would be in the game from the start. Give it another year or two, then we’ll hopefully see more developers striving for 4K content.
