Original Killzone SF shows PS4 awesome power

Guerrilla Games — developer of the upcoming Killzone Shadow Fall — claims that the original build of the game was 290GB in size because the PS4 is powerful enough to output textures that high-res, whereas “competing systems” are not.

Pretty impressive.

What a load of BS from Sony fanboy author its rhetoric

@04dcarraher: @04dcarraher:

Why so mad?

yeah.... lol im so mad about the fact that the PS4 is so powerful that they had to down sample that 290gb uncompressed data to fit on a 50gb disc..... Heck even RAGE when uncompressed/raw expanded beyond 1tb. Its nothing special nor anything to hype over.

you just crushed their dreams to say *bu bu bu PS4 is more powerful than PC*

Size does not equal quality.

if it was a game I really liked... then I guess I wouldn't mind owning the uncompressed version. But i'll take the regular bluray killzone.

Ya, horseshit.

thats what she said

Well, there is enough RAM to go around

But Crysis 3 looks better.

cool storey bro..

That's just stupid to say. All games are made with high-res assets that are down scaled to fit the medium which they are delivered to. This is because it is a hell lot easier to downscale then to e.g go back to a 3d assets and bake out a new normal/CV/AO/Color map at higher res.

@remiks00: I'm sorry she said that. :P

are you sure?

So much borezone it's enough to send me to sleep..

Just like the GB hype from last gen.

Too bad they're not going to give you anything impressive content-wise. Just like last gen.

as cool as that sounds that really doesn't mean much of anything. refer to rage.

it doesnt

do they think we are stupid?

@dr_jashugan: Lol Super Mario 64 probably reaches into the Gigabytes as well when you talk uncompressed assets.

When you focus on gamers like Sony and deliver the most powerful video game console ever created in the history of video games, it's not surprising. We are humbled Sony and GG.

What other systems? Is it not an exclusive PS4 title? I'm confused, sounds like shit to me

"The startup file that’ll get you going will be 7.5GB in size, and you can play the first piece of the game while the next piece downloads in the background."

That's the interesting part IMO.

Oh what you are saying is that the size of a game under development is much greater than the final product when compressed etc. SHOCKING :O

Reminds me of a game called Rage and their BS boasts about texture sizes.

They probably mean uncompressed sizes and video sequences encoded in mpeg2 and some bull crap like that.

Yup, that's why GG released 4K bullshots. Show how much confidence they had in their abilities.;)

Don't be like that man

I wonder how long that would take to install.

Yes, he is. Have you seen Crysis 3 on Ultra settings? I'm not talking youtube... I'm talking real life here.
