Cannot wait! The combat and lively world alone will be major improvements

Obscure_Observer2473d ago

Yeah. This games looks stunning! Thing is, i really hate Ubisoft´s obsession with all that hud mess on screens with glowing aura surronding characters and objects/enviorements. Too much information.

I understand that they want to make it easier for casual gamers and stuff, but they should add an option to disable those markers like Shadow of Mordor for example. I´m thinking about give this game a go, since it appears it has less of it.

Aceman182473d ago

I'll get to enjoy it on my Pro lol, but for those getting the X it's cool y'all will have some extra improvements.

freshslicepizza2473d ago

That's a good attitude and it will look great on the Pro as well.

BrettAwesome2473d ago

I'd love for the ps4pro version to use the same settings, even if it means 1440p. If the pro can keep up with the one x, but at 1440p, I'll remain a very happy pro owner <3

KaiPow2474d ago

The faster world loading is kind of a big deal for an open world game lol

ccgr2474d ago

Nice! Looking forward to it!

ninsigma2474d ago

I think draw distance is gonna be the big improvement Scorpio will have over the other consoles.

Correct, the higher native resolution, bandwidth and VRAM, will ensure that the images as a whole are sharper and draw distances farther than PS4 or pro can ever hope to achieve.

MrFisher212473d ago

Lol. I bet the differences will be small. Only large difference will be between the Xbox consoles. I think Horizon Dawn on the Pro looks better than this on the X. I have not seen a game on the X that comes close yet. What's up with that?

LP-Eleven2473d ago

Do you mean the video or screenshots for Tomb Raider?

ninsigma2473d ago

Well the screenshots are from the video so both I guess.

LP-Eleven2473d ago (Edited 2473d ago )

The Pro isn't running in 4K in the vid. So that's a useless reference. The screenshots display a better look at the situation. It was fairly close, but the Xbox One X version still took it.

ninsigma2473d ago

I know that but if it was in 4k the effects would have been lowered on the pro.

LP-Eleven2473d ago

Like I said, @ 4K, the difference wouldn't be as big, but the X version would still take it. I'm just saying the video is pointless to use for any kind of realistic comparison.

Does it support hdr? Hdr is a big deal when you know the difference between that and no hdr.

thekhurg2473d ago

Yes and HDR is not some gigantic improvement. It's subtle, even says so in the article.

Alexious2473d ago

It really depends a lot on your TV.

MrFisher212473d ago (Edited 2473d ago )

Lmao. Depends on the tv. But HDR makes a huge difference. Smh. We now all know you have a lower class model. That is apparent.

lxeasy2473d ago

I know that Tomb Raider for the X will have HDR

BrettAwesome2473d ago

Well then so will all the other versions :)

Sonic_Vs_Mario2473d ago

If you read the article it supports HDR

InTheZoneAC2473d ago

sorry, had no need to click on it as HDR is irrelevant when it comes to "advantages of xb1x", it should be standard for all current gen systems.

10 Video Game Sequels That Saved Their Franchise

Video game sequels like Assassin's Creed Origins, Doom (2016), and Fire Emblem Awakening were just what these franchises needed to be revitalized.

Immagaiden391d ago

Lmao what’s Halo Infinite doing on this list?

Who would ever say Halo Infinite saved the Halo franchise

SullysCigar390d ago

Thought the same - very bizarre!

RE7 though... my God, what a shift over RE6! That franchise was definitely going in the wrong direction, so RE7 was a welcome return to form.

ModsDoBetter390d ago

Resi 6 was and still is the worst entry in the series.
7 was a great turnaround, despite people’s concerned about the switch to FP perspective.

DMC5 definitely helped the franchise after the whole DmC debacle. Whilst it was a decent action game, it was a far cry from the series and the characters we knew.

AC Origins is my favourite in the entire AC series. Despite the switch to a more RPG style of gameplay - the setting, soundtrack, length, etc were all amazing. sadly followed up by the ridiculously long and “more of the same” Odsyssey.

I don’t feel it’s fair to say the franchise slipped with Doom 3, Doom 3 was incredibly atmospheric and took the game in a different direction but there’s no denying Doom (2016) was sensational.

Halo 4 & 5 were disappointing but Halo Infinite definitely didn’t save the franchise? What?

TheEnigma313390d ago (Edited 390d ago )

I'm going to have to go with SMB 3. I was around when SMB 2 first came out and people hated it. 3 is still arguably the best mario game created.

HellspawnPR1981390d ago

"Halo Infinite"? Worse Halo ever. Whoever made this list just lost all credibility.

Hofstaderman390d ago

In future lists of a similar nature I have a suspicion Final Fantasy XVI will feature.

Historically accurate from the past is tough to truly know and judge especially the farther you go back because history is written from the people in power and doesn’t mean it’s the truth just the narrative they wanted to tell.

I don’t care about historically accurate in most games because they are games not biographies or history books . Just make the game fun , good gameplay and such .

Ghost of Tsushima wasn’t historically accurate in many things but I loved the game . Many examples like it .
