What’s ur feeling?

Whaddya make of the Scorpio specs? Am I disappointed by the lack of Vega and Ryzen init? Yup. Which leads me to what you just said, that the label doesn’t mean much, but the customization means everything in console. You’re right. I read the report, and dam if Microsoft engineers are genius, from the upclocked GPU, to the “Vapor” based cooling system, to the fact that the CPU has been freed up to do massive draw calls, cuz DX12 API is implemented right into the GPU logic. How they’re getting Forza to run 4k 60fps locked, with 4k assets and headroom for higher settings is…..just insane

I’m curious to know as well but I suspect we won’t find out until it’s released and some does an in depth breakdown.

TLDR: NIOH IS ON GARBAGE GAME ENGINE. Complain to DEVS.

Not gonna read
Couldn’t care less what you have to say.

Didnt read little twit

4k 60fps gaming vs an upscaling gimmick as low as 720p.
Back compat vs no back compat.
Xbox gamepass vs PSnow
4k bluray vs nothing
Superior multiplats vs inferior multiplats
Single player hack n slash trade ins (coming to PSNow) vs multiplayer gems with infinite replay value.
55 million peasants…It’s hilarious.

I’ve seen that DF Analysis.
Your comments, while technically correct, are misplaced in direction. The Pro/PS4 units are very powerful.
If this game was on PC’s they would need top tier cards to run it like it should be (e.g. 1080p/60fps solid). Systems like the One/S would not be able to run it at all unless is was 720p with less than 30fps.
The problem is that Nioh is built on a garbage engine. Like it or not, the reviewer even comments on this point somewhat indirectly.
Simply put it needs to be re-written. Nioh isn’t the only one like this.
Several games suffer from the same problems. When the engines are redone suddenly they have substantial look & performance improvements. Andromeda (Frostbite engine) is a good example of only rebuilding a portion of the engine.
BTW, Nioh is a terrible looking game even when running at the 4k res. I’d rather look at Uncharted, Horizon or Witcher as ‘good’ graphics on a decently new engine.

the original Xbox was definitely the more powerful system but devs choose to only design for the PS2, where all the money was. 🙁

I’m trying to understand the sheer level of marketing gush you are dumping.

The Xbox One/S can’t do anything useful. Its true market is a fast 720p/60fps system. “Upscaling” you refer to is pure marketing drivel that the M$ ever hopeful fans thrive on. lol

As for the new Shader Model 6 idiocy – OMG. You don’t even know what that is. If you did you would not be waving it like some flag of pure performance boosting power.

FYI – Shader Model 6 is the part that was missing from DX12. M$ should have release it with DX12 but it wasn’t ready yet. It is a nice upgrade to the shader system that ALL DX 11 & 12 feature level GPU’s (includes PC’s and both GPU Mfg’ers) can take advantage of. It is STILL not up to feature parity of Vulcan. There are a few features present that will require a new GPU (not yet on the market) to take advantage of.

And yes…you absolutely sound like one of the fans pushing *extra core unlocked*, *One S* will be totally faster than PS4*, *M$ is adding DX12 it ONE/S*, and their BS stories that amount to nothing.

As for the Pro not doing upscaling…..what the heck are you even talking about?????? Upscaling has zero to do with anything.
Can I use a Pro on a SUHD 4K TV or HD TV? Yes.
Would I use a Pro with a monitor? No, I’m not that stupid as their is no monitor on the market that will give me the performance I need/want at 4K.
Will the Pro display 1080p on 4k? Yes.
Will the Pro display 4k on 4k (checkerboard or native)? Yes.
Issues with Pro? NONE.
Issues with One S? OMG…can’t play anygames without it choking at ANY freaking low resolution (720p, 900p, 1080p).

Shall I link digital foundry analysis. ?
