I think 4za fans going be hurt nxt time they see driveclub !!!!

theWB273953d ago (Edited 3953d ago )

Why? They're completely different games. Maybe if they were showing next gen GT...

@Kratos_Kills
I love Forza..probably my fav franchise but I wouldn't go that as far as Faster. Good stuff : )

They are not completely different games, they are both arcade racing games, LMFAO can't wait for driveclub it's looks to be a fun game

Haules3953d ago

Sorry to burst your bubbles but 4za 5 competes with DriveClub, Just looking at some gameplay footage both games feel the same, easy to drive.

Already debunked. I don't know why people are still going after that old story. Two of the best looking games at E3 (Ryse and Forza) were confirmed running on X1 hardware too.

Transporter473953d ago (Edited 3953d ago )

I'm sorry Forza looks nice but Ryse really....?

ape0073953d ago (Edited 3953d ago )

^^^^^^^

i think Ryse gfx were so incredible that made u go in total denial

man Ryse gfx are out of this world, i dunno about the game yet, it may turn good or bad but gfx are jaw dropping, FACT

Transporter473953d ago (Edited 3953d ago )

@ape007 um no the game looks ugly, graphic wise...
this game doesn't look impressive at all.

Pretty much...

When you compare the best looking games from Microsoft to the best looking games from Sony...

Microsoft's look pretty lackluster. lol!

I'm lost you say that the gpu got downclocked yet you link us to a forum about the X1's ESRAM being more powerful than anticipated...

RandomDude6553953d ago

"102GB/s was the embedded memory peak bandwith up until today.

800mhz*128byte * 1 (read or write operation) =102.4GB/s

800mhz*128byte * 2 (1 read and 1 write operation) =204.8GB/s

DF stating the new peak memory bandwith beeing 192GB/s while maintainig 800mhz clockspeed just doesn't add up...

I personally stop here and leave it at that - the numbers don't add up.

Some people are taking this a step further though:

750mhz*128byte * 2 (1 read and 1 write operation) =192GB/s

this means that a 50mhz downclock would alling with the peak memory performances given in the article."

Theres another one...the whole thing had to do with the eSRam and GPU.

greenpowerz3953d ago (Edited 3953d ago )

I'm not sure why you post that. What you posted shows that the Xb1 is now more capable than PS4 in that area LOL

EDIT Below

Why are you posting BS? Your comments and links are conspiracy theory damage control. Your tinfoil hat is on too tight. MSFT isn't trying to fool anybody, it is vital to their business to keep its specs secret, being the leader in gaming. The *supposed* revision was leaked(just like the first time with 8 gigs of RAM sony had to copy)

"So we can basically confirm that cboat was correct. The numbers tell the truth. The esram has been downclocked, and Microsoft's PR department is trying to spin it as an increase in total bandwidth based on some cycle tricks that are probably being exaggerated."

KwietStorm_BLM3953d ago

Being the leader in gaming?...?

DoesUs3953d ago

No, it doesn't show it to be as capable. If you read it correctly and understood it you wouldn't make yourself look rather stupid. ONLY 32meg can run "Theoretically". Good lord, MS must be paying you a fortune.

RandomDude6553953d ago

Lol at "leader in gaming". Maybe if they ever win a generation, they could claim that, but they've been second and third.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

CrimsonWing691h ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker1h ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing691h ago(Edited 1h ago)

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos7h ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Tacoboto6h ago

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger886h ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
