Kinda funny that they have it "locked" at 30fps , but there is frame drops hmmm. Maybe locked means something else now.

obliteratorFTW3815d ago

Maybe they should render the game in native 480p and then upscale it to 1080p (because there is no difference obviously) to make it stable at 30fps.

Nicaragua3815d ago (Edited 3815d ago )

Locked means it cant go above 30fps, not that it never dips below.

MightyNoX3815d ago

Remember during E3 how it struggled to maintain above 24fps? 30 GPS is a godsend to them. Wonder what corners they had to cut.

sigfredod3815d ago

the first one was resolution, on E3 they proudly anounce it in glorious 1080p only on the xbone, lol

mkis0073815d ago (Edited 3815d ago )

Honestly I laugh when dev's say locked...because I have yet to play a game that never a had a dip deepening on camera manipulation.

Article says its gonna release for $30 ?
Thats a positive

rdgneoz33815d ago (Edited 3815d ago )

Um, I think the article might be wrong... The Joystick article says the season pass for DLC is $30, and amazon is listing it (the Day one edition of the game) as $60 atm.

After all the hype and focus on it as a launch title, its more like an admission of guilt. Embarrassment.

The opposite was true of the Halo ODST where they increased the price to a full game.

Edit: Okay. Just bad reporting. Very bad.

Actually, the whole site's just horrible. Especially hate the video that automatically plays.

MrCastle3815d ago

Why review a demo? Shouldn't they wait for the final product?

rdgneoz33815d ago

It's not a review of the game at all. There is no score. Joystick was just pointing out frame rate issues it noticed when trying out the demo at an "Xbox One showcase event in San Francisco."

Demos are suppose to give a good representation of what you'll get from the full retail version, betas are works in progress. Not much is likely to change with 2 weeks till the game launches.

KingTrash3815d ago

Let's all focus on some bs negative article when almost all of the previews from this hands on event have been overwhelmingly positive. This game is gonna be really good...sorry guys!

Jack_Of_All_Blades3815d ago

Yeah Ok I think you'd be the expert on exactly what it is gonna be

mhunterjr3815d ago

Well this is an article about a next gen xb1 game, and if we didn't focus on negative, we wouldn't be n4g... it's no different from the all the attention that the negative ryse articles get... despite the majority of previews viewed the game in a positive light.

digitalkid3815d ago (Edited 3815d ago )

Have you seen all those crowds of Zs? Never seen anything like this. O_o

And something else.. Game media are getting huge amount of attention, users, "hits" because of this XBO/PS4 arguing, by provoking all this crapy holywars. Be smarter.. get both consoles, or buy whichever you like, and enjoy it! Stop wasting your time on stupid arguing.

What Happened To The Dead Rising Series?

Over the last week, Jake has been going back to the Dead Rising 2 Off The Record remaster and has been an absolute blast. When he was 15 he first got his Xbox 360 and Dead Rising with it, it was unlike any other experience. It made him wonder though, what happened to the Dead Rising series.

Interesting timing. This retrospective was released just a few days ago: https://youtu.be/Et-cKSrWuc...

Darksonic221354d ago

Ah no, I just felt like writing it as I started playing the game again and wanted to offer up my opinions 😁

InklingGirl1353d ago

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the title.

MadLad1354d ago

Complacency and new teams who didn't understand what made the series special.

Darksonic221354d ago

Seems like there was just a ton of infighting aswell and so many more issues. Honestly sadly Dead Rising 5 before it was cancelled sounded nothing like dead rising, nothing learnt from. Dr4 at all.

ColdSin1353d ago

DR4 should have not been made anyways. DR3 closed everything nicely.

darthv721353d ago

Check out the vid i posted above.

MadLad1353d ago

They're a solid channel. I always click on their vids, unless it's a series/game I simply have no interest in.

RamRod881353d ago

They took away the depth and charm of the game that made it fun and interesting, and made it into a generic zombie killing game.

DeadManMMX1353d ago

This was the series the got me to buy an Xbox 360. The first one was so good. It still had horror elements. As it went on it became kind of a parody. Never forget getting Zombie Genecider achievement and then restarting the game to get the Mega Buster. That thing was monstrous against enemies.

Gamerking821353d ago

But you never know it might be RISING again someday .

moriarty18891353d ago

haha yes it may....good one.

The Decade's Bizarre and Quirky Gaming News

VGChartz's Patrick Day-Childs: "2020 is upon us! The past decade has had some downs, like the influx of monetisation within full games, Blizzard's community backlash and EA winning the worst company in America award twice, but also some ups, like the leaps in understanding gaming from more mainstream companies to wholesome news like gamers helping preserve a controller signed by someone’s deceased mum.

The decade has also been the highlight of some… bizarre news, and I decided collect together some of the more obscure and quirky stories to make you giggle or question what the hell happened this decade."
