Exploit PS4 for cutting edge Soft Body Physics? Ooo Freaky at 1080p 60fps.

Eonjay4159d ago

Welcome to next generation.

first1NFANTRY4159d ago

All of a sudden the future looks brighter lol

Alexious4159d ago

Who doesn't? Honestly. As long as it doesn't get ridiculous

bakasora4159d ago

Yes please.
Imma forever alone guy.

Sarcasm4159d ago

"Next gen isn't needed."

"We're going to have advanced soft body physics."

"Take my money now!"

hay4158d ago

Titties, clothes, hair, water, sweat, hopefully even muscle flexion. 60fps faster paced DoA and necessarily replays, now THAT would be something.

I don't get why every dev have to say ps4 is cutting edge when it's gpu is 2 year old mid range gpu and the cpu is a beefed up laptop cpu.

Alexious4159d ago

He didn't say "PS4" is cutting edge, just that he wants to reach cutting edge physics with its hardware.

And you're clearly trying to diminish PS4 here. You can't think 1:1 in PC terms when it comes to consoles, for a number of reasons. And for a $/€ 399 console, PS4 is really powerful.

MethCupcakes4159d ago

I've seen what you did there. I'm only going to warn you once.. Watch what you say or you will only have 1 by tomorrow.

zebramocha4159d ago

@king the ps4 gpu is based on a 2 year design but it's more in line tech wise with what AMD is offering.

christrules00414159d ago (Edited 4159d ago )

Developers don't make games for high end PCs. Not all PC gamers have a high end PC plus to make a game that detailed it takes more time and an upgraded engine. So while development costs rise the number of people that can actually play it goes down. That is why gamea have a high frame rate if you have a high end PC. The more power it takes to run the game the lower the frame rate will be.

Then since each console has the exact same specs so devs can tailer the game specifically for each console where as on PC since there is so many different configurations they have to make sure it works over a variety of different parts. If there was a PC with the exact same specs as the PS4 the PS4 would outperform the PC because of the optomization and stripped down operating system.

As for the CPU being weak it may be if developers engines aren't good at multithreading. But if a devs engine is great at multithreading they can spread the workload out. Plus they can offload from the CPU to the GPU.

Hicken4159d ago

I don't get why you have to come in every console related article talking about some unrelated PC BS.

Furthermore, I don't get how its not considered trolling.

Cryptcuzz4159d ago

Why do you even care for what "every Dev" thinks of the PS4? Don't look at each component in a system and judge it purely on that. Look at the whole and of all the components and understand that it is not simply what you can buy at the store.

Tell me when you have bought yourself an electronics device with 8 GB of GDDR5 memory. So your comment of cutting edge is null and void.

Look. Just chill and the enjoy what you like and how you game. But don't be so anal about what is technically right or politically correct all the time and you might see yourself enjoying what's around you more. Just my friendly suggestions. Cheers.

"We will divide boob physics by zero!

Isn't that going a bit in the opposite direction there, Herbert?"

Sorry master...

pyramidshead4159d ago (Edited 4159d ago )

I wonder what next gen boobs will be like lol. I played Metro: Last Light from PS+ the other day and that point where you get a topless lap dance was cringe worthy haha.

GarrusVakarian4159d ago

Yeah, those were some concrete hexagon boobs. Nasty.

nope1114159d ago

I thought they were nicely detailed, it was her ass that was weird looking.

kingPoS4159d ago

Here's what I predict: Small time Nippon devs will make Indie games. Left unmentioned are the 3D model projects those dev units will sometimes be undoubtedly be processing.

Feel free. You should ring Ready @ Dawn.

CharlesSwann4159d ago

The second he gets new tech he thinks about making bouncy boobies.

KonsoruMasuta4159d ago (Edited 4159d ago )

What's wrong with that? This man knows what's important.

boshi4159d ago

at least he's got his priority's right.

I want to see a new Ninja Gaiden exploiting the ps4.

It needs a Pro patch. I started it but since I knew Pro was coming I’m going to start over. The game is good (and challenging which I really like) but it needs some more power to fix some of it’s performance issues. I think the engine isn’t great but with PSSR and more power it should run a lot smoother

just_looken248d ago

No they need to fix the current mess a base ps5 should be getting locked 60fps with this game.

This is Rise of the Ronin vs Ghost of Tsushima video in it you can see how much ronin copied ghost yet one is 30fps the other 60fps and ghost has better graphics.

Good because it needs it badly. The combat is excellent but the graphics are awful.

Team Ninja Doesn't Get Enough Credit For Its Stories

Saad from eXputer: "Team Ninja's stories may not appeal to everyone due to their barebones nature but they deserve credit for being fun."

mastershredder467d ago (Edited 467d ago )

Exputer dude says Team Ninja needs more credit for their stories (what their known for) and credit for being fun (also known for challenging and fun gameplay). Team Ninja gets a LOT of credit. That's why they keep making games. You just can't expect everyone to award them the attention-level and regard that you think they deserve.

"I’m aware that some things are often not for everyone. Not because someone is actively gatekeeping but due to the product or premise failing to appeal to the masses" - Hmmm l dunno, sounds kinda like we are about to go for a cruise down gatekeeper blvd to me.

Takeaway, Exputer as a pimple gaming journal site that should not be concerned about the recognition standards of a studio they have zero involvement in. You perspective is outsider and totally disconnected from reality as far as how the industry sees them.

Takeaway 2, Exputer is only in about a generation deep into Team Ninja. Posers. Take your gate keepy BS and shove it. We know what makes team ninja great and they are doing just fine doing what THEY do.

Knightofelemia467d ago

Every branch under Koei Tecmo is talented I am a big fan of theirs no matter what the game is or who makes it.

GoodGuy09467d ago (Edited 467d ago )

I thought Nioh 1+2's stories were fine, nothing amazing but they kept me interested. William and the Protag in 2 were pretty cool. Wo Long was ok I guess but it just felt like another retelling of the three kingdoms again which we've seen told so much in video games and especially dynasty warriors.

ROCKY28466d ago

Where is a new DEAD OR ALIVE !!!!
That is the only game we care about from Team Ninja 😂

Team Ninja say Rise of the Ronin will have multiple difficulty options

Rise of the Ronin's difficulty options include Narrative, Intermediate and Hard. As the name suggests, Narrative mode is for players who just want to experience the story without any serious combat. Intermediate is your standard medium difficulty that will provide some challenge while Hard is in line with Team Ninja's previous games like Nioh and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty.
