To be honest I don't see an indie game like this pushing the PS4 to it's limits with some amazing fully rendered backgrounds, but it's nice to know the PS4 is more than powerful enough for the vast majority of indie games.

TrendyGamers3866d ago

I wouldn't call ResoGun indie considering who it's coming from.

ABizzel13866d ago (Edited 3866d ago )

Is pushing the amount of polygons on screen, but it's not pushing the PS4 "to its limits".

BG115793865d ago

Resogun just 50% of the capabilities...

Holeran3865d ago

Ya the makers of Resogun have said they are at the 50% mark in computing power on the cpu.

i wanna hear the exact same thing from a developer working on a triple A title,then I'll be impressed.

Jughead34163866d ago

Well, recently there was the developer from Naughty Dog that said he's seen the PS4 in action and couldn't believe it was actual gameplay.

Godchild10203866d ago (Edited 3866d ago )

That was Nolan North, he is a Voice actor in the video game industry.

Every time I hear this line, it comes from indie developers whose games look like they belong on an ipad.

BitbyDeath3866d ago

It's also always directed at PS4 only.

cell9893866d ago

Well I guess they can't even say that about the xbone

Hicken3866d ago

Indie devs don't have to worry about stepping on anybody's toes like bigger third parties do. So yeah, you're gonna hear it from them more.

Right now, anyway. I imagine that'll change once the actual systems come out though, and there are no secrets.

"Every time I hear this line, it comes from indie developers whose games look like they belong on an ipad."

funny you would say that, what is Ironic is the iPAD3's GPU is this:

Apple still employs Imagination's PowerVR SGX543 architecture, used in the iPad 2. But whereas the iPad 2 was limited to a dual-core implementation (SGX543MP2), the iPad 3’s A5X sports a muscular quad-core GPU (SGX543MP4). Incidentally, Sony's PlayStation Vita also uses a the SGX543MP4.

http://www.tomshardware.com...

THE IRONIC THING IS THAT THE PSVita's GPU is also

PowerVR SGX543MP4+ (quad-core) with a dedicated 128 MB of dedicated GPU ram.

yeah only on an iPAD3..lmao

try putting some of these games on a Nintendo 3DS and it would bluntly choke the 3DS's hardware.

if the 3DS could even run it that is.

What, I thought this was dead after Shawn Layden left Sony. I would definitely pick this up if it's true. I have such great memories of playing the MediEvil games on PS1 and I played the PS4 remake. Such a great and underrated series.

A rumored game at a rumored show.. we’ve seen it all

TiredGamer2h ago

Agreed. The first remake was stylistically beautiful and a very noticeable improvement over the original in every regard. And it was reasonably priced and sustainably developed (i.e. not some mega big budget game that was do or die for the developer).

Zeke683h ago

Thanks for the spoilers... :(

RonnySins3h ago

Another day, another remake. Ugh!

SonyStyled2h ago

If you played the original print I can see your annoyance. I didn’t and probably a lot others the past 20 years.

Was it any good? Would you suggest playing the original print of 2, or suggest the remake? Just wondering because I didn’t play the originals as I had an n64 at the time

TiredGamer2h ago(Edited 2h ago)

I played the first remake and absolutely loved it. The quality of life and control improvements were very noticeable. I tried playing the PS1 original and gave up halfway through at the janky controls.

Expect the same for part 2. The PS1 version is janky as heck, but I would gobble up an improved remake day one.

The beauty of this kind of stuff is that I find myself enjoying more retro gaming today, so a relatively low budget classic remake (call it a single-A release) is exactly what is missing from first party releases in the modern age. I don’t want every game to be an unsustainable AAAA endeavor that is just overwhelming in every regard. Truly miss when game releases could be modest-sized surprises and still be commercially successful/viable.

Bring on more quality classic remakes!

Knightofelemia3h ago

Such a good series I also wish Sony would dust off Wild Arms and Legend of Dargoon even the Legend series needs to see the light again.

Omegasyde2h ago

My bets on new Socom and/or Wolverine (since Deadpool 3 is dropping in the summer).

I think one after this state of play will be PS5 pro preorder
