With the PS5 Variable Refresh Rate update rolling out this week, Insomniac Games has started updating their PS5 games to support the new adaptive sync technology. Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Spider-Man Remastered have both been updated with new 120Hz and VRR graphics modes.
Here’s the patch notes for both Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Spider-Man Remastered.
A talented player shares their attempt at recreating a shot from the Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse trailer within Spider-Man: Miles Morales.
Playing the best PS5 games is starting to feel like a bad case of deja vu
And yet they all play the same, just like Soulsbourne/Metroidvania aren't genres PS games all play exactly the same.
Beats racing around a track and playing the newest broken halo. Sony games crush what Xbox has. Easily.
But they dont? God of war plays nothing like days gone plays nothing like ratchet and clank plays nothing like horizon, plays nothing like ghost of tushima, plays nothing like returnal, plays nothing like spiderman. Seriously even if you were to try to compare ghost of tushima to god of war the combat is completely different.
You think God of war plays exactly the same as spiderman?....
Also, Metroidvania is a genre
Open worlds is not
Souldsbourne is a genre
Narrative driven is not
I love these games but bro, you can’t tell me they don’t all feel similar. I own on my ps5 and have played for the last year on ps5: uncharted 4 next gen update, forbidden west, miles morales, both god of wars and the re-release of TLOU and yes, they all feel very similar and all are fresh in my memory. They’re great games and I love them but they are in fact starting to feel formulaic.
They feel formulaic because that was the intention. The PS4 gen was meant to be different than PS3. Which means all the big Sony owned games follow the same core design for big budget, over the shoulder, 3rd person, semi / open world, action / adventure story driven narrative. Each one just takes place in its own environment, feudal japan, post apocalyptic future, norse mythology... you get the idea?
Ill give you tlou and gow, but horizon and Spider-Man? They feel absolutely nothing like any other game, same for R&C and GoT. They all look and feel very distinctly different to me. You're stretching way too hard to try and make this false narrative a thing
Yea I think yall crazy. Each of those games are nowhere near each other. If you want to compare all those games and say they are similar you must just be tired of gaming because almost all games have similar things about them. I think sonys games offer Hella variety
Also I enjoy third person. I'd prefer it over fps anyday
How do any two games not feel formulaic? Im not sure what forbidden west and spiderman have in common.
No
In your opinion they're feeling formulaic
If you think God of war, ratchet and clank and spiderman feel tbe same
That's insane
With God of War: Ragnarok being the fastest selling first-party game launch in PlayStation history selling 5.1 million copies, I don't think there is much of a problem.
I mean, I do agree with you to a certain extent. But sales really don't mean much when it comes to quality. Granted, GoW Ragnarok is definitely a quality title. Yet, on the other hand. We have the hot mess that Pokemon just released. And from what I hear, it's selling more than any previous Pokemon game. Which always bring in millions, every iteration.
I don't really understand the whining. Yes they might play kind of similarly (I don't think so, but to each their own) but Sony's exclusives are like 1% of the gaming library. Would you rather they play just like every third party game out there?
John writes, "With the release of Miles Morales, PC gamers will be able to enjoy both great Spider-Man games if they don't own a PlayStation 4 or 5. The game does need a solid machine, and if you have a NVIDIA Ada Lovelace card, you can unlock some great extra performance. It's a continuation of Marvel's Spider-Man with some new powers and some slightly different enemies, but it's solid and will give fans of the first game more of what was good to begin with."
Why
Can't wait to try this out
Initially, I struggled to get VRR set-up on the PS5 on my compatible LG Oled, I eventually got there in the end. I realised that I was at fault for not applying the settings to my HDMI output with regards to instant game response.
I tested out VRR playing Spider-Man Miles Morales with 120fps ray tracing and initial impressions are extremely positive. Crystal clear picture and incredibly, silky smooth and buttery gameplay. The game moves and feels so much more responsive and quicker to play.
If this is just a taste of things to come, then I'm absolutely over the moon with these new VRR enhancements.
