@septic You can't be serious. Because if he is viewing them on say a 1440p monitor then he is only seeing a 1440p image. The pixel density isn't the same so the detail isn't the same. Gamers argue about shit they have no understanding about.
What? The images look great on my surface Pro. No one is saying the pixel density is comparable to viewing it natively at 8k...they just are very high res pictures that look nice.
I guess all the people below saying the screens look nice are all wrong?
"Gamers argue about shit they have no understanding about"
Exactly. Wasabi just said the pictures look amazing and you have people crying about the resolution of the display they are viewing the pictures on lmao
Some people are so full of it. They couldn't stop going on about 1080p when most didn't have a TV for it. Now they want to put down 8k because most don't have it. You know who might have it though? The PC gamer who spends on tech but has limits. They have a good gaming PC but wish they had steady 4k or even 8k. This offers them a chance to get the machine cheap and start working on the TV as the generation moves forward and 8k prices drop.
True but I think "in engine" trailers are useless as a measure of graphical power if they are not rendered in realtime... This could be runnning on a 20k $ PC for all I know rendering 1 frame per hour...

Well, it's a good job my initial post made no reference to the graphical power of the Series X or any kind of comment as to whether or not the game was rendered realtime in engine or not.
@Wasabi that's why I started my comment with "true". I don't disagree with you I just wished they show a realtime trailer redendered on the xbox hardware instead.
***"from a cinematic that at no time said it was real time or even in-engine"***
I'm not sure why you persist in pushing the "nowhere was it stated that the trailer was in-engine" narrative across multiple threads with multiple people proving you incorrect in each thread.
Just in case you missed it, here's the trailer from the official Xbox YouTube channel, take a look at the title - it's all there in black and white.
Probably the way you worded it. "The 8k stills look amazing..." I guess people took it as tho your viewing them in 8k because you said 8k lol. "The stills look amazing" wouldve been better. Lol 🤷🏽♂️ idc im just saying. Happy holidays everyone!!
The fact that the stills are 8K does not mean you need an 8K display to appreciate the detail in full, only that you would need an 8K display to view the WHOLE image at 1:1 resolution.
It's possible to view the entire image detail on a monitor with ANY resolution, you just would not be able to view the full image at once, so to say that the image detail cannot be fully appreciated on a display less than 8K is not correct.
It's also possible to supersample a higher resolution image to a lower resolution display whilst still preserving much of the image detail in the same way PS4 Pro / Xbox One X supersample higher res images to 1080p displays resulting in a vastly superior image than 1:1 1080p.
All this is by the by as this morning when I viewed the stills and made my post I was using a Dell Ultrasharp 8K display that my partner uses for work.
For someone who calling people out for not knowing what they're talking about, you sure seem to enjoy putting your foot in your mouth.
If I have an 8k image open on my PC which is connected to a 1440p monitor, the image is larger than my monitors native resolution. So it's either going to get scaled down or appear at its native resolution and I won't be able tosee the whole image at once. Is it the same as viewing the image on an 8k monitor? No obviously not, but to say it will look the same as a 1440p image is very incorrect.
Honestly doubt any game will be in 8k 30 fps let alone 8k 60 fps. Even though they said it could do 8k. If they do it definitely won't be native. Besides 8k displays are insanely priced at the moment. I like the idea of future proofing your system but let's be real here.
Netflix has the absolute worst 4k selection for movies, 80% 4k comedy specials. Excluding Netflix originals that are mostly trash, theres next to none for 4k movies.
99% of the games won't even be 4K/60fps. Except a few first party titles and the very rare third party who specifically aim for 4K/60fps, almost all games will be 4k/30fps with better details because graphics simply sell more than framerate for casuals and casuals just make up the biggest pool of players by far for those next gen consoles.
And when they do, and we get an impressive trailer like this with some screen caps, I'm going to celebrate that too... because I'm a normal, happy person.
I'm very much looking forward to seeing some exciting, new first party stuff on PS5.
It goes all ways. Heck people got mad when the Switch passed Xbox sales leaving them in last place and others got pissed when they said it’s on track to eventually do the same to the PS4. And then you have others who get mad at anythingPC related (ports, graphics, etc) that are better than console.
Upscale, downscale, sidescale, WHO GIVES AF! these images look amazing. If you don't think so and don't see the top notch level of detail then you're blind or a flat out hater
You must’ve missed the countless failed promises and slip ups from MS this last gen if you’re wondering where there’s doubt from anything Xbox in the gaming community.
What about the last few years of the 360? Or the relentless arrogance of their execs for the last 13 or so years? Even in decimation they still spout lies, smoke and mirrors.
The 8K stills look amazing, the detail is incredible.
Does this mean that games on the series X will be in 8K with 60FPS?
Print screens from trailer??? what is this, a joke?
Yes looks amazing for a CGI cut scene or intro, let's see proper gameplay I doubt it will look this good but prove me wrong.
Definitely getting this for PC!! I actually think the CGI trailer was on PC
