DF: Hitman 3 PS5 vs Xbox Series X|S Comparison: An Xbox Advantage At 4K

And why is this an exception? Its a good looking and very optimized game. If there's a title that should be running well & at high settings, its Hitman 3

Do you think that looks like a next gen leap?

It looks good but it looks like a current gen game. The only think it really does impressive is the npc count.

Sure, but i really don't see why the graphical settings aren't maxed or very close to being maxed, especially in 1800p, a resolution the Pro used a bunch.

Because they needed to throw it on 8 platform by January and wanted it to run at 60fps ASAP is my guess.

Seems like the PS5 isn't getting RT for Hitman 3. At least, not alongside the Series S/X and PC.

The source is Xbox.com.

Q: Which enhancement were you most excited about to explore leveraging for Hitman 3 on Xbox Series X|S?

A: We see Hitman as a ‘live game’ and our launch date on January 20 is just the beginning of a journey, in which we’re going to keep working on the game and adding new features. It’s great that the GPU in the Series X|S has hardware support for Ray-Tracing. We’ve already started working on RT technology for the renderer in our Glacier engine, and once that’s deemed ready for prime time, we’ll definitely bring it to the Series X|S hardware.

I didn't even realize the game already released. There's been no one talking about it. Very low numbers on Twitch. Just a couple lems and their alts bragging about getting one game that runs at a higher resolution on XSX lol. So sad.

@NathanDrakeSwag: 22nd in streams watched in the past 7 days at 4million+ hours

not sure how that is "bad"

no RT for the 9.2 tinyflop machine.

cows just cant catch a break,this and every game being better on serious x through VRR is causing sleepless nights.

the medium embargo lifts on the 27th for the scores whore cows refreshing GS reviews every hour

HAH

@bluestars: man, so lame. You guys have no games but worry about minuscule differences on another platform that no one will notice. Xbox is still irrelevant.

minuscule? 1800p vs 2160p (4k) that is quite significant of a difference

The difference in resolution is more pixels than 1080p. 😂 Its like rendering the PS5 version and the Series S at the same time with room to spare.

now if games use 4k assets. then you could call the game native 4k. no game atm does it for a few reasoning

@firedrakes: well the PS5 uses lower assets than the XSX and it is also lower resolution

That is not how it works. If a game renders out a 4K image, it is native 4k. 4K assets? what does that even mean.

If you flip 'em on their backs there's a small print that says '4k'. That's how you know, he must have checked it out.

not true that upscale assets.

again please read the word native. original. anything else is fake.

so i will explain this another way.

so bob shoots 4k video.

then edits it in 4k using software(most software still runs 2k editing).

then formats in 4k.

from start to finish bob shot,edited and formatted native 4k content.

rez is more then just a screen size.

but most users here dont seem to understand that.

seeing this whole thread about something that simple fake. plain and simple.

fun fact the skies in fh3 : the developers took a 12K camera to Australia to take photos of the beautiful Australian sky.

less than a minute of 12K video created a file that was nearly 4 gigabytes in size.

they shot both video and still for ref.

even ref still shots where massive.

they mailed back drives ever day do to sheer data size.

last again .

i will say this as many times as a can.

i see zero standard the game dev for 2k,4k when it relates to games.

they use buzz words for video standards but follow none of them.

come back to be when the game dev sector follows a dam standard that the rest of the industry used but them.

Why can people write like normal human beings?

Right?

@i_p_daily: ahahah write!!!

@firedrakes: You just demonstrated that you don't know what you are talking about in that drawn out example. That is not how it works. 4k is simply a resolution. Images for games are rendered not taken. When a game renders an image at 4k it is native 4k. That is all there is to it. There no "4k" assets needed for a native 4k image.

lol i shoot 4k.

the mando is using the (most likely unreleased unreal engine) background are in 4k. that need a render farm with a workstation input.

seems most poster here dont work with 4k assets. but instead love pr buzz words .

99% no nothing about what they play or how its made..

@Pedro: he's been rambling about this in threads for a while. Acts like he has some secret knowledge about "teh real 4k" when really he's found some cinemaphile business marketing standard and doesn't understand it has nothing to do with game rendering resolutions.

Sorry @firedrakes, we're just suckers with our fake resolutions

:P

cool hope you got 2 petabytes of storage for game like flight sim 2020. that how much you will need for the whole game world. un sure rez size for assets. seeing that how large said game is. for rez stuff for 4k you all been spewing.

for single player only. btw that compress data to!

@firedrakes: wut.

that the world size for said game. you wanted 4k and that the size of the whole game. 2 petabtye.

@firedrakes: no. try again. 4k is a rendering resolution. your comment has nothing to do with me and what i said

lol :P

so your saying 4k is a rendering rez now and not a image rez or video rez.... that comment is directed at you.

the og comment was not. that was to the poster.

@xantufrog said:

I feel this one...

@regnaston: The PS5 and Series X use the same quality assets. Only shadows and resolution is reduced in the PS5 version.

Maybe he means massive jumps in geometry and texture quality to more fully take advantage of all those pixels that 4k offers. I am just guessing because his post where he explains is difficult to even understand.

@SecretPolice said:

lol :P

LMAO! Sums it up nicely

Thanks for the heads up. I will ignore his ramblings from now on. 😁

it is. the issue with trying to explain it. is the bastardize of the term 4k. from game devs.

look at what the 1 mod said. 4k is a rendering resolution....

seeing it been around far longer then gaming has.

i also ask the other posters . when complain about it.

what standard to game dev use for it... they wont answer. same goes with hdr.

but almost all the poster have never dev games or actual shoot 4k( real camera not barly fits the term cell cameras).

hell i even mention the flight sim game and not a dam word about that. seeing it came from the dev own mouths..

so what now has happen to this whole talk .

gas lighting and users on twits-ted narrative.

but that what happens when users hide be-hide random names and not their real one.

they can bs how much they want.

i said what i wanted to say.

am done with this echo chamber of a thread.

now explod games. if you want to talk more to me . i love it. seems your the only civil person here that see it.

It really doesn't matter what he is trying to communicate because he is spewing nonsense. He lacks the understanding of the technology and because of that ignorance he is forming opinions based on this ignorance. What makes it worse, is that he so assertive with his ignorance.

Hitman 3 has already recouped its development cost

In under a week. Impressive

Nice! I want to give it a try. I've only played Hitman in small bits.

Same but I will wait for it to go on sale

I guess it's not on Gamepass?

Shame the xbox is more expensive

your point?

The console is the same price in most markets. In my market (Canada) the PS5 is $30 more expensive than the XSX

As for the game,

PS5 version $79.99 CDN

XSX Version $79.99 CDN

Their storefront is way more expensive though and their sales are a joke.

The psn has xbox beat when it comes to its storefront and the deals.

It'd be easier for me to give it a try if it was on gamepass since I have gamepass.

ahh .. I thought you were in a round about way saying I was cheap LOL

no not on gamepass.. if you are in no rush I imagine it might come there in a couple years, or it will go on sale for prices that might be more attractive
