Digital Foundry on how Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is one of the most visually accomplished games of 2023.
Sifu, Control, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, and others, despite being third-party games, offer best-in-class haptic feedback on the PS5.
I think the GTA V PS5 upgrade has some impressive haptic feedback and other utilization of the dual sense features.
Like, rain hitting you has a distinct feel, parts of the road do as well, fun fire feels crunchy and different depending on the gun (SMG vs Shotgun, for ex.), but I always get a kick out of the phone conversations coming out of the controller and if you have the lights off in the room and the fuzz is chasing you the controller does a good job of doing the red and blue lights that kind of light up the room and just add to the fun.
Borderlands 3 makes very good use of the triggers. Each gun feels unique.
Ubisoft has revealed the first story pack for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora titled The Skybreaker, available on July 16.
Ubisoft just announced its financial results for Q3 of the fiscal year 2023-2024 and confirmed a release window for Assassin’s Creed Codename Red, on top of a lot more information about the performance of its major games.
This video is pissing me off, because this game does not look as good as Horizon especially Burning Shores (PS5 vs PS5). And what really gets me is he talks about the audio which they NEVER discus about PlayStation games even though most of what he talks about audio is what Tempest has been doing all gen with zero praise from them, in fact they have constantly spread misinformation about Tempest since launch.
For example he talks about the audio distortion from ray traced audio, but this was done just as good maybe even better in Horizon, for example just go to the first major village and there is the big hut where the food guy and the battle mini game, there are tons of NPC in there and when you move in and out and around the outside it's all ray traced every single voice and audio que to still sound accurate.
The reason this game has this level of audio is because this game's lead platform was PS5 and it is a Tempest Audio game, which is then ported onto the other devices. And while I haven't played the other versions of the game I would be willing to bet the audio implementation is best on PS5 with Tempest.
What is happening this gen in the media is such a travesty, PlayStation is dragging the whole industry forward, yet sites like this are aggressively smearing them, misinforming, and purposely not covering the benefits of the platform.
It does look pretty damn good.
I'm playing it and love it, both in co-op and singleplayer.
One of the best looking games on current gen after Burning Shores 🙌
