Nice! Another one for the replay list.

SullysCigar1271d ago

It was already 4k/30fps on the pro
Making it 4k/60fps that is the goal because the graphics already top notch

This update only look great for ppl who jumped from base ps4 to ps5 .. and didn't buy the pro

TheProblem1271d ago

I’m not sure what you are talking about. They have made it 4K/60fps

fr0sty1270d ago (Edited 1270d ago )

Pro upscaled to hit 4K. Kinda sad Ps5 is having to do the same.

Livingthedream1271d ago

So is this native 4k? Or what's the deal with checkerboard 4k?

IRetrouk1271d ago

Checkerboard rendering on the horizontal lines, the verticle lines are full 2160p.

Mary Cerny developed the checkerboarding technique. Here's an article where he explains some of it. https://www.engadget.com/20...

This one has me super excited! This was my main game to finish!

SyntheticForm1271d ago

Agreed.

This is one of those games, like Bloodborne, that I return to over and over. I've gotten the platinum and completed GMGOW, but I'll take any excuse to go back.

Ragnorok is my most anticipated game as of now as well.

Awesome, hope RDR2, Horizon and LoU2 get one soon.

neutralgamer19921271d ago

Horizon would be awesome I would replay that but the load times are so long if they can patch it so they aren't as long it's an instant win

GamerRN1271d ago

This was the one I was waiting for! Now I can finally finish it happily!

TGGJustin1271d ago

Great to see this. You could get this if you played the game without patches on PS5 but then you had any bugs they might not have fixed. This new patch fixes that. Sony needs to do this for The Last Guardian as well as that game's patches removed the ability to play it at 60fps

Hellcat20201271d ago

It looks absolutely amazing in the unpatched version
But I will now play it with my save file that has my new game + mode

StoneyYoshi1271d ago

Yeah I just started a new playthrough with the unpatched version. Now I don't have to constantly get bugged about updating the game! 👏

ocelot071271d ago

I'll be playing threw this gem again shortly then. Your turn last of us 2.

Is the industry hurting for money or not?

Hofstaderman1d 8h ago

They belong to XBOX. Its a dog's life....

Chocoburger1d 8h ago

Nice thing they did, but not actually gaming related, not sure why this article was approved. Also strange informing us what game Rare worked on, as if we don't know their legacy.

Tacoboto1d 7h ago

Sorry you hate dog news - here's a game-related headline for you, the latest: "Deathsprint 66 is a hyperviolent freerunner that proves game journos suck at games | Video Gamer"

Yeah we need more headlines like *that* on this site, instead of news about a studio's employee perks.

GaboonViper1d 7h ago

Its actually nice to see a story like this instead of the usual doom and gloom but people still moan, anyhow hope these beautiful doggos have a great life.

GaboonViper1d 7h ago

Really nice story, kudos to Rare.

I went to look at new apartments and saw only dog parks, no kid parks. We're so screwed.

Damn was hoping for a fantasy setting. Looks futuristic

jznrpg1d 10h ago (Edited 1d 10h ago )

I think that’s a screensaver if you look to the right it looks more like a fantasy game and so does the concept art leaked earlier. Who knows though

phoenixwing12h ago

Unless that structure/pillar thingy in the right picture is long forgotten technology it's futuristic.

Name Last Name1d 11h ago (Edited 1d 11h ago )

Another shooter? Yawn. Thought the prevous concept looked more fantasy.

just_looken21h ago

With there same look on the right a arena setting this might be live service game #5 from sony

So a live service shooter like concord.....

StormSnooper20h ago

It looks like a fantasy game on the right screen. You are looking at a screensaver.

Goodguy011d 11h ago

Been looking forward to what they have next. Looks interesting.

Eonjay1d 11h ago

Really excited to see them release an original IP

GaboonViper1d 7h ago

Looks like my dream of them remaking Metal Gear Solid is over, still cant wait to see what they are cooking up.

Unions in gaming are necessary fr fr

montebristo1d 9h ago

I used to be anti-union, it kills productivity, investment and turns product mediocre. Their games suck anyways though so what was lost? Might as well get their people paid until they are dissolved.

shinoff21831d 9h ago

Unions are necessary regardless of how you feel. You know how fked the working class would be without them. As if we're not already.

montebristo1d 8h ago

No they aren’t, regardless of how you feel. Unions make zero sense for skill based labor. They are for people who press a button every 10 seconds on an assembly line. “working class” is a made up term. I don’t care about corporations or developers, I just want good games lol. Killing your incentives to appease the lowest common denominator doesn’t lead to great games imo

montebristo1d 2h ago (Edited 1d 2h ago )

I wasn’t trying to be offensive if I came off that way. The Union is an old mentality and I can see their usefulness but also the danger. We’re in the age of AI and robots and skill based labor. Unions can be dangerous these days. You could replace your entire workforce in one move. Checkmate. Look to the kiosk replacing workers in the 20 dollar minimum wage era.

Well run businesses don’t need unions. If you need a Union that business won’t survive anyway. Unless it’s propped up by the government with corporate welfare (which is the real issue). If you’re not going to spend some on your workers (Amazon, Google) then your welfare is cut off. No tax breaks. All you put together don’t match their wealth and resources, the union is a traditional memory at this point and counterproductive with this new enemy we face. They need a flying elbow from the top ropes. And by “working class is a made up term” I just mean we’re not a class system and even CEO Bobby Kotick puts in a days work lol. Or did.. It’s just a vague term that doesn’t mean anything no offense lol. People say “middle class” but that can change quick right? Up or down. That’s not a “class system”.
