Nice to see them improve the old games

DiceAndRice2415d ago

Agreed. Always great to see them improve, I wonder what the Xbox One X can do for BC.

timotim2415d ago

I love when I can boot up a game I have yet to finish or a classic and have it run better than its ever run before. I think it's cool. Been playing a lot of the original Forza Horizon to increase my Forza Hub score and get more achievements...the game runs amazing on X1.

"Fixes Many Major Issues"

What "major issues"? Cuz the frame rate is still a uncapped wavering mess that still drops into the low 20s and the frame pacing is even WORST than it ever was on the 360. With it constantly going back and forth being 16.6ms and 33.3ms, which makes it extremely framey. The only thing they fix is the screen tearing. So what are these "major issues"?

TheUndertaker852415d ago

"Saints Row 3 had major framerate issues on the Xbox 360 during cutscenes with drops reaching to 20FPS however that has been fixed on the Xbox One with cutscenes now staying at a very stable 30FPS, and hardly dropping at all. Thanks to VGTech‘s latest video for these screencaps."

dantesparda2415d ago

Watch the video, its drops to the 20s, but i see fanboys dont like the facts and instead prefer to believe all their own bs.

TheUndertaker852414d ago (Edited 2414d ago )

1) The quote I posted is from this exact story.
2) Going from a flat 20 in cases to anything above while managing to make other bits hit 30 where they didn't before is an accomplishment rather you personally like it or not.
3) Yes, fanboys spreading BS. Not what you're doing at all is it, particularly when gains occurred.
4)""Fixes Many Major Issues"

What "major issues"?" - Addressed the question you didn't find an answer for as it's contained in the story. Also provided a good summary for you as well.

Anything else?

Ah. I see. You wanted to avoid admitting that gains occurred via Xbox One backwards compatibility & chose to downplay the story and results. Much like a fanboy. While calling others fanboys.

Just need Saints Row 1&2 now they're the best ones

SR 1 is still my favorite. That ending.....

C-H-E-F2415d ago

Higher frame rate is a side effect of having better hardware, BC doesn't matter at all lOl.

For example I can take a PC game that craps out at 60fps 1080p and then put it on the same settings on a higher end computer and wala magic, lOl BC has nothing to do with it. lOl

Slightly disappointing game but Wo Long had a good creator. I was impressed by Oblivion back in what 05, 06? But the worst i have ever seen, clearly, Valheim.

ModsDoBetter366d ago

What was up with Wo Long?

Not looked at any reviews and did download it on my Xbox before I sold the console but never got around to playing it. Saw it drop in price on PS5 and was thinking of picking it up.

RE: Character creation

Oblivion hold a special place for me, when it came out on PS3, it was the first game of its kind that I had played and the character creator took was amazing.

I do like Monster Hunter: World & FFXIV, personally.
Cyberpunk did good in that department, despite its numerous flaws.

IamTylerDurden1366d ago

I played Oblivion day 1 on 360 and was impressed with the creator. Damn near 20 yrs ago, it was impressive at the time. Special game, unfortunately 90% of current gamers on social media have not a clue about the older stuff. Elder Scrolls is just Skyrim to many. They know not of Gothic and the old guard that paved the way. Flimsy ass rhetoric and recycled opinions about the same bs is what garners attention. Meme culture. Insight and intellect hold no place on the current day internet. Fuck likes, follows, BS. I say what i believe is relevant, what i'm interested in, and following means fuck all bc i don't respect 99% of the ppl online anyway.

For the "TLDR" bs. I'ma not space it out on purpose. Fuck you very much folks.

isarai367d ago (Edited 367d ago )

Honestly the one I remember being easiest and flexible enough to make any character I imagined was the PS2 WWE games, and Saints Row 2. I did really enjoy Dragons dogmas character creation too

IamTylerDurden1366d ago (Edited 366d ago )

I was gonna mention Black Desert but the game is horrible so...

Creator was the best part.

Lol CP 2077 is one of the easiest and less detailed editors around. It's all a mish-mash of presets.

The Suzuki Escudo Pikes Peak from the Gran Turismo series

Nissan Skyline from Need for Speed Underground

Motorcycle Steamroller from Dead Rising 3

And finally a car you never drive but saves your ass over and over : Honey Badger from COD MW2

I was thinking of Mad Max. That V8 felt really good to drive around in, especially with upgrades.

dumahim470d ago

No one liked the Batmobile in Arkham Knight. Top 10?

toxic-inferno470d ago

I don't know... It was a strange addition to the game, and the parts of the game where you had to fight in it were tedious. But driving it around Gotham felt brilliant.
