He mentions 4k. How on earth will a game made in 4k look? I can only imagine that it will blow people away. It will usher in a new level of immersion.

josephayal4042d ago

PS4 would support 4K resolutions

rezzah4042d ago

If i recall correctly, Sony said 4K will be used only for movies (PS4).

Beautiful doesn't necessarily mean realistic though. Not all games have to be high fidelity renderings of reality.

Conzul4042d ago

I think its going to get to a point where is it even necessary to have THAT much detail? For example, render every hair on a fly, or every line in the game separate. Certain stuff you wont notice unless you are specifically looking for it.

Every industry has these issues

Some companies I’ve worked for were great and some were toxic as hell (UPS when I was a teenager was extremely toxic and I have heard it still is) It all starts at the top. They either hold people accountable , set standards and treat people with respect or the crap rolls downhill.
