Cyberpunk 2077 PS4 / Xbox One Review | Jeux Video

If the game remains relatively playable in its scripted sequences, with a few hiccups here and there, the exploration in the open world is often laborious, even sometimes unplayable. Textures that don't display or are runny, pronounced aliasing, low definition, overdue framerate, freezes, lagging interface, crash ... these Fat versions are a striking proof that Cyberpunk 2077 should have never been anything but a next-gen game.

I agree. It should’ve been a next gen only game. It’s clearly too ambitious for old consoles.

Levii_921643d ago

With all those delays you think they were preparing for that and ditching the old gen but i’m baffeld that we have to wait for sometime next year for next gen versions.

Makes me think in what kind of state was the game earlier this year when it was supposed to launch originally.. 😬

LordoftheCritics1643d ago (Edited 1643d ago )

This seems like a pc beta release.

Doesn't play on old gen consoles.
Doesn't fully utilize next gen consoles.

RacerX1643d ago

I'm playing it on PC, the game is frustrating glitchy. Lots of latency, pop ins, sometimes the graphics look like card board.

So it's not just the consoles that are suffering. I'm gonna put this game down until another patch is released. It's really ruining the experience.

SullysCigar1643d ago

Back when TVRs were a thing, there was a running joke that they left the factory in Blackpool half made, sold them and then finished them off over the next year. To me, CDPR are the TVR of the gaming industry. But once it's finished, boy are we in for a great ride!

Still, no excuse though. Especially given the delays.

Dee_911643d ago

@RacerX
I couldn't make it pass the tutorials 😂😅 here's to a patch soon

Knushwood Butt1643d ago

TVRs always did have a reputation of being very unreliable.

A shame, but the entire British car industry pretty much had the world in its hand but bad decisions flushed the entire lot down the toilet.

According to a James May documentary, the British turned down the Volkswagen factory, for FREE, after the war. Smart move!!!

It really should’ve. Cross-gen does hold next-gen back. I feel this would’ve been the game I wanted had they have been free to push the game to its limits on next-gen. Now, the next-gen version will just be a smoother experience and sharper looking version of a last-gen game. I think when people say cross-gen holds next-gen back they can use this as an example.

Killa781643d ago

That's no excuse.

This game is 8 years in the making, it is a last gen game. They should not have released the game of they knew it wouldn't work.

Nekroo911643d ago (Edited 1643d ago )

Not according to Aaron Greenberg, "it's just a slider". We always knew that this would happen but fanboys...

nickanasty2061643d ago (Edited 1643d ago )

This game was in development for 8 years though with the mindset of it being finished much sooner. Unfortunately the game is too ambitious for its target console after all of the delays and next-gen has now arrived. They had too many adjustments that needed to be made during developement, and next gen dev kits have only been around for about a year at most. Next-gen wasn't really being held back here considering those consequences, CDPR's developement timeline and delays is what made all of this happen. Remember as well, any AMD Ryzen technology was not available for them in 2012 when they started their work on this game. I think it being undercooked for all devices with the exception of PC makes complete sense, with PC being targeted first because that is CDPR's MO. Not to mention the fact that AMD's software implementation of Ray-Tracing doesn't even work on PC at the moment, so next gen consoles were never going to get the royal treatment. Technology changes drastically in 8 years, and they had to keep up with the times on the PC front so the game turned out to be too ambitious only due to technology changing and them having to adjust for that. If they truly wanted it to work out for every platform, they would have to delay the game again, and since they do eventually have to answer to their shareholders, they had to just put the game out so they could start making some money on their investment into the game. Money talks in this world unfortunately, so to sum it up you can blame money for making this happen, because in the end they are a business, and like any business they are in it for money.

JeffGUNZ1643d ago (Edited 1643d ago )

Honestly, the game is a poorly optimized mess on PC. Head over to reddit, people with 3080 and 3090's not getting 4K 60 FPS, dropping to 30's. I have a RTX 2080, i7-8700K, 16 GB RAM, 1440P 144hz monitor and took me HOURS to get a 50-60 FPS range. Game just was not ready at all the be released. Now that I have it on high-ultra settings, the game is just filled with bugs and probably the worst police system in an open world game. Look at this clip of someone killing someone on the ledge of a building and the police appear out of thin air.

mafiahajeri1643d ago

This game was hyped up really well by CDPR. Its all you read when you see people talking about the game, hype. Looks like an average game thats getting so much praise because of how luckluster game releases have been lately on multiplatform, Sony is the only one doing it right. I wonder how lenient people would be if this was a first a game published by Sony.

RememberThe3571643d ago

The game looks fkn great. It just isn't finished. Again we get a game that isn't ready and again millions of people pre order it anyway. Never preoder games, there's literally zero benefit. Wait six months, the game will be mostly fixed and half price.

wwinterj1643d ago (Edited 1643d ago )

The thing is most folk still own last gen consoles and can't even get a current gen console. Making is "next gen" only would cut off a lot of sales. The game upgrades for free to "next gen" too when that patch is available so it's fine.

RCslayer1643d ago (Edited 1643d ago )

Right and lose over 150 million consoles. Yeah, that would be a great move. It should have been done right. This game came was talked about when the Ps4 and X1 weren't even on the market. So no it shouldn't have been next gen only. If that was the case do you think you would be playing it on anything right now? Since the game was 8 years in the making. The new gen would be 4 years in or more into its life before this hit the streets.

How did CDPR put their name on this? What a cluster

Teflon021643d ago

CDPR maybe great at making great games, but let's not forget Witcher 3 was a mess too at launch. Not as bad but a mess. They maybe even able to make this one run better with updates. But this is why I said I'm waiting till the official ps5 and series X version drops to grab on console.

yeahokwhatever1643d ago

The witcher 3 was much worse at launch, IMO. There were entire missions that would just crash the game every time. other missions would just get stuck. it was LITERALLY unplayable. there were fewer bugs probably, because there were fewer things happening. less npcs to notice how bad they were. etc. this game seems to be too ambitious for their studio, but im still glad they made it. NMS was too ambitious as well, but we eventually got more than we were ever promised, which is where i think CP2077 is headed when you look at their history with the witcher.

Sirk7x1643d ago

Yeah, Witcher 3 was really bad at launch. Framerate problems, quests breaking, etc. People forgot about all the drama with the graphical downgrades of the game too. If I remember correctly, there was also a really bad save bug with the game, where you couldn't save, and saves would get corrupted. They stuck by it though, patched the hell out of it and gave alot of DLC for free, which was fantastic. CDPR is also really, really good at storytelling.

"...a striking proof that Cyberpunk 2077 should have never been anything but a next-gen game."

That is what I said before Cypberpunk came out. Incredible that they thought something like this can run on a PS4 or Xbox One.

Rebel_Scum1643d ago

Whats the key diff between Cyberpunk 2077 and GTAV? Because that runs smooth on a base PS4.

yeahokwhatever1643d ago (Edited 1643d ago )

lens flare. the more i play cyberpunk on my ps5, the more i realize this game is basically GTA lite in robocops world.

Minute Man 7211643d ago (Edited 1643d ago )

The Redengine sux my guess but they'll fix it

TheExecutioner1643d ago

After many many delays
I knew it
This game disappoint and will likely play it when its discounted

alb18991643d ago

You don't even know what you are talking about. It is not a disappoinment, it just should have been released only for next gen consoles.

TheExecutioner1643d ago

And who are r u to tell it should be released for next or not
This title has been announced mid of last generation and now u r telling it should have been for next generation
Rather they focused on making burger, nail and male penis
They must have made it perfect for current gen

IamFrasierCrane1643d ago

But it wasn’t. They knowingly sold people a broken game. Not to mention the majority of console sales are going to be on last gen hardware. That explains the free upgrade now, no way could they get away with charging people for that.

Quit defending them.

Lol I've been disappointed ever since the "closed door demo leak" the demo was running on a gtx 1080 ti 1080p @60fps . I was like how the hell with that run on ps4 and xbox.

By the way that demo was like years ago, I was able to save up and now I play it on my pc with rtx 3080

I'm more disappointed by those people who thinks that the devs can magically optimize the game to run great on ps4 and xbox one.

yeahokwhatever1643d ago

"I'm more disappointed by those people who thinks that the devs can magically optimize the game to run great on ps4 and xbox one." <-- the devs thought this. otherwise they wouldn't have made a game for PS4/XB1.

oof67811643d ago

Happy to see crunch was worth it.

frostypants1643d ago (Edited 1643d ago )

Crunch happens on all major for-profit software projects. No exceptions. Anyone who says otherwise has never worked on one.

Releasing a Full Game On a Nintendo Switch 2 Cart Makes Sense

Begone, game-key carts. Full cartridges just work better and here's why.

Game key karts are just digital games.....why keep up the facade

Profchaos10h ago

I didn't bother buying any game key carts for my system despite my preference being physical.
I brought the mkw bundle and that was a digital code but I wasn't going to pay double for the game
I got yakuza 0 digitally as the key card made zero sense to me it costs more and its just a digital game in disguise (I never sell my games anyhow)

darthv7210h ago

...obviously. If a game is 64gb or less, it should release on card. If it exceeds 64gb, the key card comes into play. It does suck that Nintendo wont support smaller cards, SW1 games came on anywhere from 8gb to 32gb cards. The cost of using a 64gb card for a game that would fit comfortably on a 32 or even 16 may not be cost effective for some smaller devs. Hence the use of the key card.

Then again, its taking a page out of Sony's book. They mandated the use of DVD media for all games a few years after the PS2 released. Until then, they supported games on CD. Then when it came to PS3, no game was allowed to use DVD, they all had to be bluray regardless.

Now with PS5, they only use UHD media, no regular bluray for games allowed. Even if the game is smaller than a DVD. So i can see Nintendo trying to standardize their game cards. If devs dont want to pay for the use... the key card is for them.
