This will be good when it happens.

lxeasy2121d ago

Really excited to see what The Coalition does on Project Scarlett

AngainorG7X2121d ago

Makes you wonder how Gears 6 is gonna look like at Native 4K and 60 fps on Scarlett

Kabaneri2121d ago

Im sure Scarlett will have the ultra textures that PC has.

Rapidfirepunches2121d ago

It usually takes PC's 4 years to catch up with Xbox consoles in terms of power.

MadLad2121d ago

@rapid

Please tell me that was a failed attempt at humor.

"It usually takes PC's 4 years to catch up with Xbox consoles in terms of power."

2 years. in terms of pricing to power. if that's what you mean.
in terms of raw horse power, there are pc gamers with 2 and 3 GPUs linked up.

DevilOgreFish2121d ago

@ Tech5

that's only if they aim for latest and greatest hardware.
if they aim for mid range spec it will be far less than that.

It's not native 4k from start to finish though, it goes up and down depending on the section.

timotim2121d ago

But on Scarlett it will be...I think that's the point he was making.

Kiwi662121d ago

They are talking about Gears 6, not Gears 5(which is the latest one) and the next gen xbox not this gen

I hope it looks good but I think the difference will be felt just like the feeling of booting up gears 1 on my new 360 back in the day and saying wow this is something special

SyntheticForm2121d ago

I'm glad they didn't.

It's got the visuals and the frames and I haven't noticed any performance issues during game play.

Noskypeno2121d ago

Tlou2 is going to look better, but Ofcourse it will, all the graphically focused games that Sony has shown are set at 30 fps which takes way less resources.

Gears 5 on console has set the bar for framerate and graphics.

SyntheticForm2121d ago

I have no doubt TLOU 2 will look better overall, but what the Coalition have managed to do here with Gears 5 is remarkable. Great frames and great graphics - not Naughty Dog level graphics but still great.

Profchaos2121d ago (Edited 2121d ago )

Remember they has to span the weakest original X1 hardware to the most modern gaming PC's and they did a fantastic job the game plays great even on original hardware I'm actually taking the time to play it on both and switching back and forth myself

sprinterboy2121d ago (Edited 2121d ago )

Fps does drop as does native 4k. Only gotta watch DF.

SyntheticForm2121d ago

I'm sure there's the drop here and there, but it's not something I've distinctly felt playing the game yet. I'm still in Act I.

gravedigger2121d ago

Game isn't in native 4k. FAR from it. VGTech video :

Xbox One X uses a dynamic resolution with the lowest native resolution found being 1920x1080 and the highest native resolution found being approximately 3200x1800. A form of temporal reconstruction is used that can increase the pixel count to 3840x2160 and pixel counts at 3840x2160 are common due to this temporal reconstruction. The native resolution is higher for the 30fps real time cutscenes on Xbox One X with the lowest and highest native resolutions found during them being approximately 2773x1560 and 3840x2160 respectively.

Dropping to 1080p....interesting.

Btw. John Linneman admitted that he was wrong on resolution count on resetera.

traumadisaster2121d ago (Edited 2121d ago )

I hope to certify on the new consoles games must have options for locked 4k60, 1080/120, 1440@60/120, 8k30. No 30fps at 4K and below.

Also frame rate that stays locked would be required but I guess now with VRR on Xbox and next gen consoles that might be used instead.

FlyingFoxy2121d ago

It's pretty much confirmed that PS5 is gonna be 1070/2060 or so perf.. I doubt it will = a 2070. Next gen Nvidia 3000 series next year and I bet the lower end 3060 will give better perf than the PS5 overall.

traumadisaster2120d ago (Edited 2120d ago )

You will be surprised, it’s going to be 2080 at the least. That card was released over 2 years earlier than ps5. Will be old tech by then and about right to use in a console.

Shuckylad2121d ago

I’d like the next gen to have both hdmi and DisplayPort with digital audio out via optical. I exclusively game on pc monitors so dp output would be welcome.

Console gamers expect a lot for little money.

traumadisaster2120d ago

I’ve been at 4K pc before the Xbox 1 was announced. Assume much?

MadLad2120d ago

You're still asking for a lot from a box that normally comes in at half, or less, for performance in question. Let alone for an entire generation. I'll revise my wording to "console players", if that at all works better for you.
And I've seen you talk PC on here prior, sooooo … no. Not really. *shrug*

Nintendo president apologizes for Switch 2 shortages

I might get one in a couple years but I’m in no hurry. Nothing at launch I want to play.

GotGame8181d 13h ago

60 fps Switch games with higher resolution makes it worth it to me.

badz1491d 12h ago

you basically has no choice because it only has old games with ONE new exclusive and a scummy paid demo. old games are all you have and you fanboys are eating it up and let Nintendo get away with this.

PRIMORDUS2d ago

If there are no shortages then why can't we just easily order a Switch 2 online, from Best Buy, Target, Newegg, Amazon etc. No shortages means we can get it by any means, online or in store.

kindi_boy1d 6h ago

move your ass to the nearest Target or Best Buy and you'll find a lot of them.

Benjaminkno12h ago

I’ve been looking. They go as soon as they hit shelves. It’s ok fanboy. You’ll be ok

shinXseijuro2d ago

Maybe there’s shortages in Japan ? But they’re pretty much available lol

shinXseijuro2d ago

But hey saying that creates more hype right !

Good-Smurf1d 15h ago (Edited 1d 15h ago )

There isn't one in US, I saw plenty posting pictures of it many stores in still have plenty in stock.
This is just them referring to stock situation mostly in Japan.
Sounds like he low key also spreading FOMO pressuring people to go out and buy one for no good reason?
It's not exactly flying off the shelves here in Thailand though, there's basically no real hype here at all other than the fanboys lining up for it the first few days.
You can easily order one right now in Thailand from all the official authorized stores, not out of stock at all.
The price of 17800 THB or around 550 USD here for a standard SKU and high game prices probably has a lot to do with it.

badz1491d 12h ago

the standalone Switch 2 is more expensive than the PS5 slim in Malaysia and just $2 cheaper than the Disc PS5 Slim. what a rip-off

Benjaminkno12h ago

Some areas in the states have more demand than others. In Columbus Ohio you can’t find one.
