Thomas Ellis of Gamer Attitude feels we won't have the same massive graphical leap as last time until Ultra HD becomes the new standard.
Games Asylum: "Well, this is neat. As the name suggests, Wrath of the Mutants is the rarest of things – a genuine arcade conversion. With most modern arcade games being ticket redemption machines, this is something seldom seen. In fact, the last arcade conversion we can recall was Raw Thrill’s own Cruis’n’ Blast on Switch back in 2021. This is also based on an older iteration of TMNT, harking back to the series from 2012-2017. It’s essentially breaking franchise continuity (we’ve had two different iterations of the Turtles since) and could even be considered nostalgic for a select few – those who grew up with 2012’s Turtles are probably in their late teens."
Fuse ARPG, Soulslike, and cozy crafting mechanics for a one-of-a-kind adventure. Here is The Nerd Stash's early impressions of No Rest for the Wicked.
Starship Troopers: Extermination is continuing its early access period with a class system overhaul that will give players more options when it comes to pushing back the bugs.
It must be frustrating for these devs to see Helldivers 2 absolutely devour their lunch lol
-Oh my God, this game looks like a complete rip-off of Helldivers II!
-At least it gives Xbox players the chance to experience something similar to the PlayStation game!
Jokes aside it does make you wonder why Sony, who owns the IP for both, is continuing with two products when there is such overlap. Should it one day make a new Starship Troopers film or a Helldivers film instead?
Got a 4K TV for my PC and the image quality difference between 1080p and 4K is just huge, everything just looks so perfect and smooth and the high resolution textures in games just look incredibly detailed.
I'm no expert but from what I can gather, to push the resolution in games on PC beyond 1080p and keeping decent frames per second requires quite a powerful GPU and in some cases would require multiple GPUs to keep performance at acceptable levels.
Sadly, I don't think Xbox One or PS4 will be able to accomplish this unless the games are tailored specifically to run at this resolution which I suspect would mean compromises being made with the details. I am going to go out on a limb and guess that it will be the next Xbox and Playstation consoles that will include output options in UHD as standard.
One thing that is going to hold Ultra HD back is TV not jumping onto it as streaming that content would be difficult. The consoles are never going to be able to do this Ultra definition anyway but that isn't going to matter if Ultra HD TV sets stay at the high price. They are going to stay at the high price for a lot longer if TV doesn't jump onto the bandwagon. 1080p is cheap and enough to watch TV so the majority of consumer just won't jump across (which then means the manufacturers have to keep Ultra HD sets at high prices because they won't be moving lots).
Better luck next gen
NO. It will not give us anything but remakes of The Last of Us. ONLY FOR THE PS5!
