@Heavyarms55 I have a switch,switch lite, new 3ds, PS4 pro, Xbox one, and a PC with a 2080 ti. Some might say I have a problem but I say that I love games and want to write about them. It would be crazy to stop now.
@Moroboshi876 indie game the movie is very interesting. It follows Ed mcmillon(super meatboy), Phil Phish(fez). And the least interesting and arguably the most pretentious Jonathan blo(braid). They each lose thier minds about indie game development in thier own unique way. Sorry for spelling of people's names.
@sixrings uhh yeah. Gamers In the professional field. Spreadsheets, video editing, programming. Haven't been chasing that 4k dragon because I already caught it. Lol
@sixrings switch can run games at 1080p 60 though. Not all of them. Also the series x isnt claiming it can play games at 8k but it is claiming it'll Target 4k60.at the end of the day it's up to the Dev and wether or not the game they are making should favor frame rate or resolution. Yes 8k games are possible, but did you care to see the specs? It's two rtx Titan cards in an sli configuration. That's not even close to a consumer friendly price so GTFO of here with that comparison. Apples and oranges. Racing games are omptimised very well for the most part so your not making your argument anymore valid by using this single test case scenario. I would love to see older games running in 8k but newer AAA games are just not possible at a consumer friendly price tag. I also cant see your original argument of indie, board, and chess games really going for an 8k output just because if the game doesn't require that kind of res why would they do the work to make that happen?
@sixrings dude games like that are not typical use case scenarios. Also teraflops are a poor metric to measure computing power. My PC's gpu has the computing power of 12tflops and is not doing 8k. They can say "supports 8k" because the new consoles will be HDMI 2.1 complaint because of higher supported resolutions and implementation of freesync.
@Blizzia I read the review and listened to Austin talk about it more in depth on the podcast, so don't assume things. His arguments are absolutely valid. He also didn't hate the game either. I'm still going to play it because it sounds interesting considering the individuals who developed it.
@Blizzia Well then it's clear your not familiar with industry then. You follow brands instead of individual journalist and clearly have a bias because vice is known for being that alternative drug website. I don't care who works for who. There are respectable opinions everywhere throughout the industry. Just because you disagree with a review (WHICH IS ENTIRELY SUBJECTIVE) doesn't make it trash.
@Blizzia mmm no. former giantbomb employee austin walker knows his stuff. say what you will about vice but austin has been in the biz for a long time and knows what hes talking about.
@Aeleron0X people I know who tried it in beta when Google was giving away assassin's Creed origins with it said it was running butter smooth low latency at with only a 40mbps over WiFi. Plus multiple other sources have tried it has said similar things. So it definitely works but we won't know for sure once it hits mass market
@Gen0neD just read igns review and last time i checked 7.8 isnt a bad review score. i really enjoyed this game even if it's not the best example of a Metroidvania
@Joeynator3000 fortnite is already on phones and pubg mobile runs a hell of a lot smoother than the Xbox version. Porting the mobile versions wouldn't be a terrible idiea considering pubg mobile isn't as stripped down as people would have thought

@sixrings yup. 8K is a long ways away from now.
Re: Random: Xbox Series X? That's Just A Tall GameCube, The Twitter Masses Say
@sixrings it's not doing 8k. Ever. Will be 4k resolution with 8k upscaling.

Re: Alien: Isolation Release Date Confirmed For Nintendo Switch
Definitely the scariest VR game period.
Re: Metro Redux Listed For Nintendo Switch By Portuguese Retailer
