New DMC4 info (PSM UK): 1080p @ 60 fps confirmed for PS3

The hands on report from PSM3 UK made note that the PS3 version was running at 1080p resolution at of course, 60 fps.

-The game is said to be long, the longest DMC yet. The bestiary is larger than all previous games combined.

-Both Nero and Dante are playable. However, Nero is the focus so Dante in DMC4 is a replica of his DMC3 combo system, but this time they've added instant 'style' switching to the instant weapon switching. They also updated the animations.

-This game ran at 1080p and 60fps when PSM3UK played it.

7 - give me 720p and better visuals

DMC looks good so far. But I rather have mind blowing GFX @ 720p than good GFX @ 1080p. What gives? Give me motor storm / Gears of war visuals @ 720p and I'm cool. We are getting weak visuals for resolution that most of us don't have support for. BTW, I have support for it 1080p on component and HDMI.

What are you babbling on about?

So they up it to 1080p out of a decision that their code is running so well...and that means they are downgrading the effects....yes that's logical.

Same goes for NGS then? They just got the game running in 1080p...must look worse than 720p...

i think he's talking about compressing and resolution and the consequences of upscaling. See, if you have more resolution, you can see all the faults of where the graphics are lacking. At 1080p, the fuzzyness and lack of detail have no where to hide, at 720p, the lower resolution, it can be masked and less noticable. I think thats what he's getting at.

7.4 - Well

You don't honestly think the game will have all graphical enhancements turned on running at 1080p on a 256MB graphics card do you? I seriously doubt that the card could handle that. I dont think either of the systems could handle that unless it was a game such as golf or maybe a fighting game with very consticted evironments. And before everyone starts talking about cell processing being the difference please stop before you start, because most of the graphical instructions and load is taken on by the graphics processor itself and not the main cpu.

Good work. See competition is good.

PoG, I disagree (big surprise).
If they sacrafice anything for Xbox they'll probably keep 60fps and drop to 720p if necessary. I'd rather drop the resolution than the frate rate. Anyway, thats what I rekon, what do you think?

because M$ specifically stating that 720p is the sweet spot in gaming. They don't feel that 1080p is neccessary, so I would assume they want all their games to be 720p..you know the sweet spot. Why aim for anything other than the sweetspot.

thats native 1080p.. not upscaled 1080i.. i've always wondered if the core component cables could do that.. well guess we'll find out.. booo upscaling.. yay native

I didn't assume they would be different, I was only responding to PoG's post in which he theorised they might be different. I went on to say IF they had to change anything they would drop the res, not the framerate. I was mearly trying to have a discussion but you had to go all fanboy on me, by calling me a fanboy.

From what I understand you can only get true 1080p resolution through a digital connection I.E. HDMI. Component cables are an analog signal and are only capable of 1080i at the most. From what I understand anyway.

11 - well it seams that Team Ninja got the ps3 looking hot

Now capcom is doing the same. again 2 3rd party devs, one being completely xbox centric is showing that the ps3 is a beast... i can believe MS said that Sony's 1080p was all hype and wouldn't be possible at launch of the ps3 or within the first year and that it doesn't matter... yet Devs are using the resources and getting there coding perfect where the game is running at the holy grailand frame rate and resolution. and showing that the ps3 is clearly doing things the Xbox360 cant do naturally... the 60fps it can but the resolution... upscaling... ^^ still this should be a dmc to remeber and i feel sorry for those who will buy this for the xbox because you prolly never played the first 3, sadly you missed some great games... if i were you. i'd start with DMC3 first, because it's the prequel to DMC1, the after dmc1 play dmc4 because it's right after 1 and just before dmc2... i really cant wait for this game... i was reading the US PSM and it said that Dante was even Faster than he was and more detailed, not only that They Said that the same engine that was used forDead Rising was reworked from the Ground up for the ps3 and then completely Overhauled, right now the game looks a tad better than Lost planet, in My opinion. Good capcom is doing what Lair, and NGS and are so many others have done since launch... not bad not bad

15.1 - Good question Jenzo. It depends.

I would take a rock solid 30fps over a choppy 60fps anyday regardless of resolution.

Assuming that 60fps is solid I would go with 720p/60fps over 1080p/30fps but maybe I would feel different if my TV wasn't 1080i :(

i just find it funny that there were so many people, industry and fans alike that were stating we'd never see a 1080p, 60fps title on the PS3...EVER.

now, we have two: Devil May Cry 4 and Ninja Gaiden Sigma.

Lair is also running at 1080p, though i think the framerate is probably 30.

it's nice to know that devs are learning they can do things they didn't think they could before now that they've actually got their hands on the system, instead of basing their premature assumptions off of tech specs.

there are things the PS2 is doing now that no one thought would be possible when it launched. you'd think we'd have learned by now to not jump to so many conclusions, and be so presumptuos. guess not.

it doesn't matter if the 360 can output at 1080p 60fps or not. it probably can.

i'm more pleased that the PS3 has knocked down another item on the list haters have been spouting for the past year.

Headset compatibility - check
Mouse and Keyboard support - check
Background downloading - check
Ability to play downloaded PS1 games on PS3 - check
Games that are 1080p, 60fps - check
Rumble support for PS1/2 games - check
Rumble for PS3 games - uhh, forthcoming
Graphics on par with 360 - check (just not from most 3rd parties. lazy bastards)
No centralized online network - check (with Home releasing by years end. at least Sony is working on it. what have we heard from Nintendo?)
Single user login - check

the list keeps getting shorter and shorter.

the point of this post is that we all should watch what we say about the consoles we don't like, because you never know when you'll find yourself eating crow.

i'm more on the PS3 side of the camp than any other, but that doesn't mean i don't have an interest in a 360 or Wii. i'll get those two eventually. i love video games, regardless of console, but just like those that love sports, or books, i have my unique individual tastes, just like you guys.

whether we love or hate Sony, Microsoft, or Nintendo, one choice isn't any better or worse than any other. it's all about the games, anyway.

i may give DMC4 a try, but i'm not as into the series as i wanted to be (i guess because the first one kicked my @ss so hard back in the day). i'm always up for a sweet action game, however, so i'll give the series another try when this one hits this year.

And I find it just funny that Sony said that ALL games would be in 120fps @1080p in 4D!

I'll wait and see what it'll be. They also said Motorstorm would be 60fps @ 1080p. They talked about it almost till it's release and suddenly it was downtuned.

So shall we wait untill both versions are released, because I hate those false predictions over and over again.

What's also important to know, 1080p comes with sacrafices. It has less detail/objects then a 720p. The XBOX 1 could do 480p/720p/1080i. A specific amount of games could run 720p/1080i, although 480p was the standard.

720p is sharper, but it also had less detail/objects. It's a sort of trade off. So I don't know where one should be happy with. I think I'll prefer the sweet spot 720p with a richer game then 1080p just for the sharpness.

@ posters below

You may reach for the sky, but I'll simply tell you, for the majority of games 720p will be the max, as well as on PS3 as 360. A few games may be in 1080p but the hardware is optimal for 720p.

It's not for fun that almost all games are in 720p. If it was that easy to get 1080p especially for the most demanding games, they would have done it already.

Plus: how many people own a 1080p screen? 7% of all TV's are HDTVs. Rest is CRT. 7% of all TV's. Of those I bet 99,5% is 720p/1080i. And no 1080p.

You can bet I play games, more then enough. And multiple friends from N4G are able to confirm that. The thing is: I don't spread my gamertag here because those same PS3 morons that send me PM's here don't have to know it.

Do you play games? If you did, you wouldn't have bought a PS3 just for playing BluRay movies!

@ Fenderputty: there is a trade off. Anyone can tell you that.

19 other people posted along with replys before you brought up the oh so predictable 120fps@1080p comment. I think its time to let go of that bone, along with the one in your other hand.

Oh by the way, can you provide a link where its actually says all games were supposed to run at that?

Na, didn't think so. And what do you care? Aren't you happy in your so called sweetspot?

720p, way to raise the bar Dude. Thats shooting for the sky. By your logic devs shouldn't strive to improve anything, they should all just be happy redoing things the way they always have. Why dont we go back to Gourand shading? To hell with normal mapping, whats it done for us? HDR lighting? Its just a fancy way of saying washed out.

22 - Lets not get carried away with this resolution stuff.

Ask any PC gamer and he/she will tell you that often you must reduce the res in order to improve the performance and fx qualities.This applies to consoles as well.If PS3 is running DMC at 1080p 60fps, then thats brilliant,no doubt. You do have to bear in mind however,that logic says if you drop resolution you can improve fx, because more power is available.If you don't need more power for fx or other requirements, then 1080p is great. If for instance,you require large complex environments then i suggest devs might consider dropping to 720p to maintain a good frame rate while including large environments.Bottom line,if you have power to spare, then up the res. If you need the power for other things, lower the res. My conclusion would be that DMC,doesn't require the processing power of say, Halo3.If you disagree, then look at games on either platform that are currently 1080p, there are definite similarities in power requirements.Will the 360 version compare? Thats a fair comparison to make,lets wait and see. BTW this has nothing to do with PS3 vs 360 crap.
