Can you say 60 frames per second? The devil is in the details when Gametrailers compare the stylish combos on the consoles to those on the PC. Discover it yourself in this specially 60 FPS enabled video!
(DmC: Devil May Cry, PC, PS3)
I honestly need to invest in building or buying a beast of a rig soon... I love consoles but as far as multiplats go, PC generally seems the way to go as far as graphics and performance goes; PC's also have mods that consoles can't get. I might wait until the next consoles come, then I could see the difference between fresh hardware.
For those of you out there who don't know, you can hook up a PS3 controller to your PC and play as well....still, getting this game on PC as well, stoked.
It's hard not to spot the difference between 30fps and 60fps. It's double the frame rate, double the smooth. Easier to see the difference when actually playing the game, though. Sometimes these trailers and footage aren't running at the actual frame rate of the game.
In honesty, I don't mind slower frame rates that much. Battlefield 3 runs at 30 FPS and it doesn't affect my enjoyment of it. Mind you, maybe that's because I've never played it at 60+ FPS...
Whatever the reasoning behind my PoV, I have to agree with @Mariusmssj. It'd be awesome if more games ran at 60 FPS.
Once you have played games at 1080p+ and 60fps+ then it's hard to go back to subHD and 30fps with fast paced games. BF3 maxed on PC is a thing of beauty on console it's jerky, ugly and unplayable to me.
60FPS should be the standard for the next consoles even if they have to run the games at 720p.
You see the actual difference when you sit in front of a 40 inch HDTV and first play the same game on console at 720p, 25-30 fps, then play it on PC @ 1080p, 60 fps and with gamepad, the difference is AMAZING and thats why i'm playing on a pc +hdtv + x360 gamepad for the past 2 years.
Lol the split screen idea here is stupid. You need a few seconds for the brain to settle into one speed and then when you flip to a faster fram rate you can see the difference.
Since moving from consoles to my PC, I've found so much enjoyment simply playing games in 60fps with a controller. I love my PS3 and 360 and wouldn't play certain titles any other way, but once you've played Hitman: Absolution, Sleeping Dogs or Max Payne 3 on PC with a controller, it's tough to go back. The feeling of having that responsive controller matched to fluid imagery is gaming bliss that everyone deserves to discover.
Steam Big Picture is absolute MONEY for those that are thinking of making the transition.
wow.. hope nx gen offers some great 60fps games.. but like current gen, only ps2 style games can be handled like that.. So nx gen, only current gen can prolly run that way
one is very clear, smooth, quick and by contrast one looks like a blurry slideshow.
Edit - On second thought, it does look different. My HD was off before LOL
The animations are smoother on the PC version (60 FPS).
