Playstation Playstation Meeting 2.20 - The Official Thread (LIVE Streaming for Conference starts at Thursday, 4 AM)

But they should have brought in a tech guru like Carmack if they REALLY wanted to stress their hardware.

lol people still think Carmack is relevant as a tech guru? Heck, as much as I diss the guy, I'd much rather have Cevat Yerli stress upon the hardware's capabilities. But of course, MS has already bought him out, what with Ryse being Durango exclusive.

Yeah, no, sorry guys, still not feeling this killzone thing. It's just a slightly better looking current gen game. The scripted sequence had great particles, but then so do scripted sequences in this gen's games.

Scripted sequences or not, it is real-time, which still makes it very impressive. What current-gen game would you say it is slightly better looking than? The fact that it runs at native 1080p alone is enough to distance it from any current-gen console game that I know of. Beyond that, it's packing far more environmental and texture detail. The lighting gives it a very CGI-ish look, and the amount of particles and alpha effects crammed into the demo was staggering.

Even the GB guys agree with me, Brad called out that this looks like a 30 FPS game just from the stream, very nice catch.

Actually, unless GB has access to direct feed footage, this just goes to show how technically irrelevant Brad Shoemaker is. Live streams are usually locked at 30fps, and even a 60fps game will seem like its running at 30fps, because the other half of frames simply won't be there.

And didn't GB give the nod to the PS3 version of GTAIV as being more impressive, graphically speaking, than the X360 version? Yup, tech gurus indeed! :lol:

Awaiting Digital Foundry's analysis.

lol ... Couldn't care less about what Nintendo follows ..

 

[Chandoo]

easy there CT just making observations, nothing in that demo looked superbly outstanding from a tech or content level, it looked like a somewhat improved version of the current killzone games, nothing much else, besides it's 1080p but 30 FPS, something we all had written down in stone wasn't going to be the case.

and while this early PS4 announcement would do great for generating buzz on that console, i fear sony might have put a damper on the PS3 and it's 10 year plan and sales will most definitely drop

 

[zainzombie]

Rockstar confirmed that GTA V will be just for xbox 360 and ps3.

Speaking of Wii U anybody saw that remote play thingie with vita + ps4, same thing as Wii U and tablet.... if anybody occupies TV you can bring it to the VITA.... haha

ok so continuing from my last POST

Saw watchdogs, This game is looking damn fine but the whole concept they said there is NO ACTUAL MISSION etc is getting me a bit confused atm as in its OPEN WORLD alright but without any missions or objectives, what is it just sandbox type game haha... one more thing that im sad they aren't brining this to the ps3 its hopped on the next gen wagon :crying:


Saw killzone shadows gameplay and DAMN, DAMN.... DAMN

LOL alright, tell me this. Do you expect the next Halo or Gears to be 1080p/60fps?

 

[ahmadka]

That would be real sad if its 100% true ..

 

[BumperJumper]

Ok guys, now here is a fun comparison

This one is a official bullshot of KZ: Shadow Fall at 4k resolution.

This one is 1080p screen, taken from the Ultra quality trailer

Pretty impressive, right (sm1)
[MENTION=26]Chandoo[/MENTION]: check out more of these screens that i posted here

[Journeys End]

edit : LOL, soldier running down the stairs animation (lmao)

wtf guys, at least make some good animations for the show.

that part irked me a bit too but then i remembered that most FPS dont even have a separate animation for a NPCs in-game(unless its a scripted animation) so il give them credit for trying

PS4 Announcement - Abridged Version - YouTube

For anyone not wanting to watch the whole press conference, the abridged version is very good

 

[Bad Mofo]

So the PS4 will be able to display media in 4k but games would stay at 1080p. So, no need to get a new TV for another couple of years. Yeah!

Waisey, not a single mention of 3D anywhere. No 60fps 3D games, no nothing. Disappointing.

 

[Chandoo]

LOL alright, tell me this. Do you expect the next Halo or Gears to be 1080p/60fps?

I expected all games to be at least 60, if not 1080, I think we ALL did

 

[Shyber]

Every developer knows that anything that can be made to run on a system at 1080p/60FPS can be made more beautiful with more details and run at 1080p/30FPS.
Well let's just hope that's 30 locked and a not one frame below it.

 

[Chandoo]

also i'm pretty sure simply adding more RAM will allow games to run at a higher refresh , i think it will help with open world games and off loading data streams, but not with actual refresh rates themselves.

but then again, this is a gen 1 game.

any torrent link to download the whole conference in HD?

Some pictures from the conference and more in the link

The PlayStation 4 was announced last night at a special event in New York, and we were right there in the front row scribbling notes and taking photos throughout.


Well, that's a lie, we were in the sixth row, but you get the point.


Below you'll see a selection of our snaps, showcasing everything from Sony's flashy event set-up, to some of the key players and demos. Most importantly, however, we also got one of Yoshinori Ono's adorably little face. Bless his heart.


You can see even more pictures in our gallery, and for further reading (and watching) click the links for our latest coverage.

That's right, the comic-relief from 'Romeo Must Die' got to play the PS4 before anyone else.
