Wow, thanks for porting this game on PC.. I just hope that max resolution will not stuck at 900p lol.. :p

Just kidding

sikandar2013519d ago

Lol.. It'll on up-scaled 900p.. :D :D :D
poor XB1..

starchild3518d ago

Funny, that's pretty much exactly what I have: an i5 2500k and GTX 770 with 2gb of VRAM. I should be able to play this fairly decently.

incendy353519d ago (Edited 3519d ago )

Sorry, removed report. I see you just copied the source "not much you can do about the source sucking". Minimum specs are actually i3 with 1GB vram. Although very unlikely you can play at 1080p with those specs and move at more than a few frames per second haha.

SniperControl3519d ago

Gonna give this a miss, already played it on X1, mediocre at best.

incendy353519d ago

I loved the second part of the story arch. Also loved the combat, blocking and countering felt so good. Hated the parts where you had to shoot the hordes though. I would probably give it around a 7.5. Definitely worth playing but not at 59 dollars. More a game I would recommend for 30 or less.

Hold_It3519d ago

$15. What combat? Mash A to win?

NovusTerminus3519d ago

I have a computer more then capable of running it, but I'm gonna wait for it to go on sale before I get it.

LordMaim3519d ago

It looks fine, but higher resolution doesn't make the game better.

Play2Win3519d ago

But it does not make it worse either. This game will looks amazing on PC. I'll buy it for the visuals alone with the Xbox One Pad for PC when it is cheaper.

LordMaim3517d ago

"But it does not make it worse either."

That's hardly a ringing endorsement. The gameplay was simple and repetitive, and making good graphics better isn't going to make a bad game more fun to play.

Play2Win3514d ago

You sound like the game is very bad. Well, that is your own opinion. I've played it on Xbox One and found it really fun to play. It is made of much higher quality like your mentioned Damnation.

kingduqc3519d ago

Well if you play A game and B game. A game in 900p and B game in 1080p/1440p/4k and everything is the same b is a better game...

Not that it's a big difference, but to be fair it's still better.

LordMaim3517d ago

If I were to make a HD remake of Damnation but keep the gameplay mechanics exactly the same, would you think that it was a better game, or just a better looking bad game?

There's fifteen ancient Rome games?

LG_Fox_Brazil369d ago

Shadow of Rome was so freaking good

Sashamaz368d ago

I'm still waiting for the sequel.

HyperMoused368d ago

Ryse was awesome, i have no idea why it wasnt recieved well and why we havnt seen another, Rome conquered so much, you could take the action anywhere, and it looked great when xbox one came out, now would be even better.

Ryse: Son of Rome Deserves a Second Shot

Ryse: Son of Rome was an Xbox One launch title that has been left to collect dust, but Crytek should set aside Crysis and give Ryse another shot.

It was a great game, it had issues but it can only go up from here.

crazyCoconuts623d ago

It was just ok. Looked really good for an Xbox game though

Snookies12623d ago

"for an Xbox game"

Way to subtly throw shade there. It looked amazing compared to any game at the time it was released.

Never played it myself though, wasn't really interested in it personally. Plus it came at a time when I didn't own an Xbox console. But it was at least different than the usual copy/paste games we get. So I hope it gets another chance sometime soon.

Crows90623d ago

It was a crytek game though

1nsomniac623d ago (Edited 623d ago )

It was a stunning game on all basis. One of the standout games for Xbox as a whole. I ended up buying on pc as well… and yes nothing looked better than it in PC at the time either. Nothing just ok about it, definitely needs a sequel.

fr0sty623d ago

@snookies12, don't pretend like the Xbox One didn't struggle with being gimpled by its tiny pool of ESRAM as a frame buffer. It was significantly weaker than the PS4.

crazyCoconuts623d ago

Metacritic 60, user score 6.4. I'm not alone in putting it into the "ok" category...

VenomCarnage89623d ago

@snookies
Haven't played it but at least you know enough to defend Xbox over it. The game did look good, for an Xbox game. That's not some "subtle shade," it's full on reality.
I remember it being nearly the only graphically decent game on the Xbone for like the first two years after launch, and graphics were that games strength

I really enjoyed it. Bought it at launch even.

ManMarmalade623d ago (Edited 623d ago )

The qte's were disappointing though. God of war was doing it back in the ps2 days. As gorgeous as the game was, the gameplay needed to be updated.

annoyedgamer623d ago

I really liked the original Ryse but Crytek doesn't have the funds. The mismanaged their properties and let EA raid them with Crysis for the duration of their relationship. Right now they are working on Crysis 4, I doubt they can spare resources to work on a Ryse sequel.

gamer7804623d ago

It would have to be funded by MS, I really liked Ryse sure it got repetitive but the setting visuals and story were good

moriarty1889623d ago

MS should have funded a sequel to Ryse and Sunset OD. Two good franchises they definitely needed last gen.

annoyedgamer623d ago

MS is too busy trying to become the next EA, Ryse wont be on their list of titles to finance unless it gets a hipster makeover with lootboxes.

darthv72623d ago (Edited 623d ago )

I recently bought it for the steamdeck and have to say... 60fps is a game changer. I really wished MS had gotten a one x patch or series boost mode option but sadly, nope. Other games that definitely deserve a second chance (esp on steamdeck/pc) are quantum break and sunset overdrive. Both deserved 60fps support on one x / series but you have to go to PC for that.

Rumor has it Crytek had plans for a Ryse 2 but due to the low turnout for XB (at the time) it was shelved. They really should give this another shot. i dont care if its multiplat on PS and XB and PC and Switch... just so long as part 2 gets made.

babadivad623d ago

The game is automatically boosted on Series X

darthv72623d ago

sorry... but it's not. It still runs at the same fps the XBO did.

lelo2play623d ago

Game was good enough, not great.
Graphically it was top notch. Still holds well till this day.

Crows90623d ago

It only needed more enemy variety and few more movesets or weapons to use. That would have made the experience tons better.

MadLad623d ago

It was a good game.
Only time I saw quick time events actually make me feel engaged.

This is not what I would call value for money spent. They give you quests in liveservice games to get you "re-engaged" with the monetization schemes or to get you hooked or so you at least spend some extra on skins and loot boxes. Then they dole out paltry points after you have already paid extra for whichever liveservice within a liveservice that you are already paying for. My worry is people can't actually be that stupid to fall for this, can they?

littletad629d ago

Absolutely nothing in this comment makes sense. At all.

anast628d ago (Edited 628d ago )

How does it not make sense? O thy god of reason, shine some evidence upon us. Ryse of Rome, ESO,and AC: Origins are all live service games, between them you can get 275 points. Liveservice games are made to keep people spending. Therefore, Gamepass is a live service and the points are for playing live service games.

It is not my problem that this does not make sense to you, it is absolutely your problem. I mean it is all your problem.

Julion0715628d ago (Edited 628d ago )

Hate Xbox but comments in every Xbox article 😂 without making sense smh

anast628d ago

Bring the evidence and then your emoji might make sense.
