Like xbox 360 that runs Withcer 2 better than any current PC

I certainly like "obsolete" if it actually means play games with top graphics, much better than any PC for 8 years and for just 300$ hardrware

 

Witcher runs better on PC. Please stop the denial.

Be prepared for next gen ligthing, herp derp

Where?

 

Console graphics suck compared ot the PC. Most games have issues staying above 20 FPs on console, nevermind 60+ of PC, and the vast majority are 720p, with outdated lighting and texture effects, 1/100th of the number of particle effects, crappy low rez textues and jaggies dancing with wild abandon. 

 

This magical optomization of yours meant exactly JACK $hit this generation, and it will mean exactly JACK $hit next generation too.

 

5 years from now some of you consolite idiots will come out crying that a 7850 from 5 years ago couldn't do "Killzone 6 - more crappy shooter than you can handle", and we PC gamers will all shrugg 'cause we'll all be runnign 9750's that play games with full resolution VR sets and 4K TV's/monitors while you guys are struggling at 720p and 30 FPS, YET AGAIN.

 

Not only that, but someone will then pull out a youtube video of some guy runnign a 7850 and playing a game MORE demanding than "killzone 6 - bored to tears again" runnign at 30 FPS once again proving that the magical "optomizationz!!!! GDDR5!!!!!!!*@*@&!" meant absolutely nothing. Just like "teh cellz" mean absolutely nothing this generation.

04dcarraher

People a lot smarter than a no name hermit have said otherwise about optimization like Carmack and Lottes.And like I posted above,next gen engines run low even on pc.Crysis 3 for instance can't even hit 60fps on a $1000 titan at very high.. lol.

:lol: optimization also includes using lower quality assets and fewer to none at all in some instants. Whats funny is that consolites dont even understand what Carmack is talking about and the fact he never goes into detail why and how optimization works... Also whats funny is that the titan with Crysis 3 runs at 55 fps+ is running settings and assets(MAX settings) that the PS4 would choke on. fact is that the PS4's gpu wouldnt even get 25 fps at the same settings.

 

The PS4 wouldn't even get 15fps at those settings.

Crysis 3 is very demanding on the CPU at max settings.

It might fair well on the sandy bridge and ivy bridge CPUs but the PS4 CPU is many times weaker.

Last gen lighting and bloomy glow on PC instead of real light sources and shadows on 360 is .... better ?

LOL, only when you try to defend your useless 5000$ PC hardware

If you're gonna troll, don't throw in the $5K PC thing, it makes it too obvious


I am not trolling, PC lighting look like UTTER GARBAGE comparing to xbox 360 next gen lighting

Juts have a look at the pics above, the last gen glow on PC reminds me of PS1 days really

I wont even mention that there is no real light source or shadows on the PC pic, which reminds me of Amiga days

After all the talk about "PC garbage power" the result in Witcher 2 is last gen lighting comapring to 360, which is so laughable

I cant even look at the terrible PC pic, the lighting is from another age

xbox 360 version is true next gen though, proper light source, HDR, lighting, shadows etc etc

Surly though, if you like Witcher 2 looking like utter crap, PC is the only way

You seriously make the troling too obvious these days. You just repeat the same garbage continually. You even had to switch what Witcher 2 comparison photos you use because people started pointing out the 360 was missing shadows, had horrible textures, and 2d sprites in the back ground.  I mean it's seriously bad.  It's no wonder people don't believe that you're in graduate school, or have any degree for that matter

[QUOTE="MBirdy88"]I can't get anywhere close to 60 FPS on bioshock infinite even. I dont care about price inflations... Bioshock Infinite...., Tomb Raider ect, dont go giving me crap about "my card not being top end two years ago" at one point it was the second most powerful ATI card second only to their damn £400+ range....... I should not be having such issues with multiplats if hardwre upgrading means THAT much to you all. "PS4 is midrange, PCs will overtake it after a year" ... yes but such an insignifigant ammount it wont matter.mastershake575

The reason I mentioned price inflation is because one of your points was that you had to buy "at the time 400 card" which isn't the case for most people (price inflation is a killer).

In regards to Bioshock I looked up a few performance reviews and its another case of a video game favoring Nvidia (just like battlefield and crysis). A GTX 650 boost gets 8 FPS faster than a 6970 which is complete crap (it seems like alot of games are screwing AMD over). The 6970 should get about 660 level which gets 50-60FPS Ultra/FXAA @1920x1200. The rest of the games should run fine

The last statement I don't agree with. The PC version will have more advanced options (AF, AA, HDR...ect), higher resolutions, better FPS, and more advanced lighting/shadows (just like it does every generation)

Crysis 1 runs well on AMD GCN.

[QUOTE="blue_hazy_basic"]Was anyone around last gen??!? We've heard all these exact things before from Sony, remember that the cell was going to cure cancer, make the PC irrelevant and begin the age of the machine and the doom of mankind? Lets wait until we see the actual real specs and the thing in action before we start leaping to conclusions, eh?

Sony's CELL PR didn't fool me i.e. the entire PowerPC industry is a joke.

[QUOTE="MBirdy88"][QUOTE="mastershake575"]

Gotta laugh at the "60 fps 1080p everything" liars amongst hermits. I have an overclocked 6970, 4GHZ i5 and 16GB RAM... Don't get anywhere near constant 60 FPS in most games ...... most *modern* games. The bullshit about 60 FPS being a PC standard is a lie unless your buying the at-the-time £400 cards.....MBirdy88
In your case its heavily inflated prices overseas. The GTX 660 SC is just as fast as the 6970 and it only cost 180USD (£140 if your convert it).

Its on the lower portion of the mid tier category and it still plays alot of games on high/max 1080p (Tomb Raider, DMC, Bioshock infinitie, and Far Cry 3 are popular games in the last 4-5 months that will get either over 60FPS or near 60FPS on the GTX 660 SC).

I fail to see your point (A 6970 which wasn't even highend 2.5 years ago should be getting amazing frames on the 4 recent games I listed).

I can't get anywhere close to 60 FPS on bioshock infinite even. I dont care about price inflations... Bioshock Infinite...., Tomb Raider ect, dont go giving me crap about "my card not being top end two years ago" at one point it was the second most powerful ATI card second only to their damn £400+ range....... I should not be having such issues with multiplats if hardwre upgrading means THAT much to you all. "PS4 is midrange, PCs will overtake it after a year" ... yes but such an insignifigant ammount it wont matter.

PC versions of those games have much better graphics than console. Bioshock Infinite on pc even at medium settings is better than console.

Kinthalis

It was a direct comparison .  Lottes says: If PS4 has a real-time OS, with a libGCM style low level access to the GPU, then the PS4 1st party games will be years ahead of the PC simply because it opens up what is possible on the GPU. Note this wont happen right away on launch, but once developers tool up for the platform, this will be the case. As a PC guy who knows hardware to the metal, I spend most of my days in frustration knowing damn well what I could do with the hardware, but what I cannot do because Microsoft and IHVs wont provide low-level GPU access in PC APIs. One simple example, drawcalls on PC have easily 10x to 100x the overhead of a console with a libGCM style API.

 

Draw calls are less of an issue on PC now a days thanks to multi-threaded rendering in DX 11, and faster bus speeds in modern hardware. Still consoles are faster in terms of pure draw calls, but that's a slanted view of things, since games are nto purely composed of draw calls. Consoles won't be bottle necked by them, they will be bottle necked by pure texture processing, polygon pushing power fo their limited hardware.

Draw calls or dispatch latency is still an issue with DX11, but there are known workarounds i.e. batch the draw calls together. Like the consoles, PC has it's own optimisation path.

Oh right, let's play @ 30fps and 720p with no AA... I mean it barely takes a hit to move to those settings... oh wait, COD is not even HD on console.

It has a tablet CPU and is substantially less powerful than my 3 1/2 year old PC. But if I buy one it will be for games, not specs.

Note that Intel Haswell ULV targets also tablets. AMD Jaguar CPU design also targets servers e.g. AMD Kyoto SKU.

It has a tablet CPU and is substantially less powerful than my 3 1/2 year old PC. But if I buy one it will be for games, not specs.

Note that Intel Haswell ULV targets also tablets. AMD Jaguar CPU design also targets servers e.g. AMD Kyoto SKU.

not normal servers but Microservers, and will mostly be geared towards media workloads.

There are Kyoto SKUs without IGP.

Microservers relies on pure numbers of smaller size cores and it's doesn't believe in hyperthreading i.e. 3 Jaguar cores could fit into 1 Haswell core (2 threads).

Two Jaguar cores ~= one Sandybridge core.

Stating ""It has a tablet CPU" is stupid since Intel Haswell ULV also targets tablets.

Note that

1. GCN also usefull for CPU off-load encryption and decryption.

2. Against 300 watt Intel Xeon Phil, you could have 48 Jaguar X64 cores** + 24 GCN CUs**. **Based on 25 watt Kyoto SoC.

Like xbox 360 that runs Withcer 2 better than any current PC

I certainly like "obsolete" if it actually means play games with top graphics, much better than any PC for 8 years and for just 300$ hardrware

 

Witcher runs better on PC. Please stop the denial.

no it doesn't, the xbox version have real light sources and shadows!!! loosingENDS is always right. not to mention the cinematic look of sub-hd and 30fps...

Oh right, let's play @ 30fps and 720p with no AA... I mean it barely takes a hit to move to those settings... oh wait, COD is not even HD on console.Bebi_vegeta
How does that change anything.? 20 times the power 2 times better looking games = waste of power..

As if Sony would show a portion of the game that has unfinished graphics at the reveal. PC power is never wasted. I'm currently replaying RE 5 at 1080p 4xaa 120fps. I'd rather have RE 5 graphics at 120fps than Crysis 3 graphics at 60fps.

[QUOTE="lostrib"]

[QUOTE="loosingENDS"]

Last gen lighting and bloomy glow on PC instead of real light sources and shadows on 360 is .... better ?

LOL, only when you try to defend your useless 5000$ PC hardware

loosingENDS

If you're gonna troll, don't throw in the $5K PC thing, it makes it too obvious

I am not trolling, PC lighting look like UTTER GARBAGE comparing to xbox 360 next gen lighting

Juts have a look at the pics above, the last gen glow on PC reminds me of PS1 days really

I wont even mention that there is no real light source or shadows on the PC pic, which reminds me of Amiga days

After all the talk about "PC garbage power" the result in Witcher 2 is last gen lighting comapring to 360, which is so laughable

I cant even look at the terrible PC pic, the lighting is from another age

xbox 360 version is true next gen though, proper light source, HDR, lighting, shadows etc etc

Surly though, if you like Witcher 2 looking like utter crap, PC is the only way

1: You are clearly trolling. You're loosingends. It's what you do. This isn't up for debate.

2: If you don't like the way the lighting works on the PC version, that's your opinion.

3: If you want to start talking about it on a tech level, the PC version is very obviously more advanced in every single way. If you don't understand that, it's because you don't understand. There's nothing more to it.

4: Again, if you don't like the way that the technically superior graphics look; if you find them unpleasing to your fanboy eyes, for whatever reason, that's just your opinion, and it means literally less than a pile of shit around here. I mean.. You're loosingends...

I welcome the ps4 but not for the graphics but for the games. I also welcome it because all the dustbunny pc's will not be able to play next gen games and they wil have to upgrade. In another 2 years the ps4 will be low end and I will still have my mighty pc for the graphics and mods and exlcusives and steam sales yada yada ect. In 5 years while I will have 4k games on pc 1080p on ps4 will be meh and the wii u will most likely be on life support.

There is nothing high-end about the PS3. It is good by console standards, but it is mid-range at best.
