[mrv321]

I succesfully reported a HHG show story... and you know what it feels good.

Most of this is speculation with flamebaits titles to get hits... it's a shame none of his 'articles' are approved correctly but instead countless multis for an insta approve.

[Kamikaze135]

Even if his stories were flame bait, none of them are things that ever actually happen.

[jayblings]

What are you reporting him for? It's a video blog about video games. How does that not fit into N4G guidelines?

[mrv321]

I'd be ok if A. More video blogs got approved. B. The insta-approve thing MUST be against the rules? C. Flamebait titles to gain hits compared to for example 'HHG: Reviews Fear 2... and much more' But instead they go for the most flamebait titles in order to gain hits.

[-Seven-]

Is a gamer just like me and you but I see why he uses the over flamebait headlines goes he wants hit for his site.

What many of you do know is that HHG gets his bread from his website and and man has to do what a man has to do to survive.

[jayblings]

I see what your saying and I agree to a certain extent but just because not all and/or most video blogs don't get approved doesn't mean that HHG shouldn't get approved. He does talk about the news of the week and speculates on what might happen in the future. I don't see how there is really anything wrong with that.

The insta-approve thing is a flaw in the N4G approval process so that's something you'd have to take up with them.

He does review Fear 2 but he also talks about 120hz gaming as well as a variety of other topics so its not like he's lying with the title. He used what he thought was the best topic and put it as a headline.

[mrv321]

I seriously doubt me posting an article regarding a giantbomb quick look would get approved... I have never seen that happen. I NEVER see a Invisible Walls of EPC approved... in my opinion they do much the same job with higher quality. It's these insta-approving/flamebait titles that are soo annoying especially considering the large amount of speculation used in order to create the. FEW of his titles have came true because they are not based on reality.

[jayblings]

Ok..I'll give you that IW and a quick look probably wouldn't get approved or if they did they wouldn't get as much "heat" as HHG but in all honesty I find HHG to be far more entertaining than both of those shows. Plus if they wanted to use "flamebait" titles they could but they choose not too. At the same time though HHG has built up a pretty strong community over here on N4G where the communities from Giantbomb and Gametrailers usually stick to their own sites, that's not to say though that those guys don't get crap too. Just read through some of the comments, especially on The Bonus Round.

[cereal_killa]

jayblings

Ok we get it you want to spawn HHG love child but guess what none of his stories would get into N4G if it wasn't for his own site people approving every story he makes. Everything he post is nothing but flamebait titles of rumors and lies. Micheal Patcher has a better reputation of being right in the Video game industry than HHG and he get away with trash who cares if he gets interviews with developers I have a friend that was able to interview 2 Stanley Cup champions for his school newspaper does that mean he has credibility in sports journalism.

Oh and BTW doesn't Nintendo own the Golden Eye IP I thought I read somewhere, and that is the reason why Rare has not released Golden Eye for the 360.

[N4PS3G]

Damn man..do you post anything on your headlines that isn't related to Sony or ends with a question mark?

I don't even know why you bother with other consoles lol

[YoungKiller25]

whatever HHg says it NEVER COMES TRUE NEVER

its just a bunch of bull i mean all the things he said about tgs 09 never came true, GT5 info was false, this guy is full of it.

[akashifire]

Watch it for the lulz

[Hanif-876]

I love your show and keep up the good work. Also, for anyone else that enjoy his weekly show please contribute if you can. I almost forgot...to all the haters, i don't see any of you doing anything better so STFU and if don't like the hiphopgamer show, don't click the F#%king link its really that simple!

[snaz27]

heres a heads up for you all... if you see a story on the main page, take a little look at who posted it! if you see hiphopgamer just moooove along! i would think this isnt rocket science... to me hiphopgamer is just someone people love to hate. anyway can someone with tech knowledge help me out here, hhg talks about the upcoming hdmi 1.4, and says basically that once sony release the 3d patch for ps3, and if you have 120 fps tv, all past and future games will run at 120fps... my questions are does ps3 even support hdmi 1.4? i thought it was 1.3. and is it possible to increase fps that arent actually there... surely if the game dev made it to be 30fps it would be 30fps no matter what screen its on, as the screen is only displaying the signal given, no?

[N4PS3G]

haha i read his "articles" and "Rumors" just for the lolz

but cmon! lol there's no denying this guy is the king of closet fanboys lol

I obviously prefer the xbox 360 and i'll admit that ..but i also play my Ps3 and i like it.. i won't deny it

but cmon! King of the Closet Fanboy goes to HHG!

Does he even try to look like a neutral gamer? .. cus if he does then..damn..get some acting lessons man

just some lazy examples ( just recent ones..i won't even go back lol )

[Hisiru]

He can be a joke for you but you are wrong, he talked about the ps3 slim before it was announced and he said when it was coming. He isn't IGN, Gametrailers, gamespot or any other known website/magazine but he has INTERVIEWS with developers, so he can bring news to us. Once you realize it, you will accept the fact that he can do what you can't: Talk with important people in the industry.

I don't care if he is a liar, if he has interviews with important developers his show won't hurt me.

[gaffyh]

Why is the website changed to ning.com? Will comment later on contents of the show, no time to watch it yet.

[kaveti6616]

Dude, Sony consistently manufactures slim versions of their consoles.

The first Playstation had a slim version called PSONE

The PS2 had a slim version called the PS2 Slim

The Playstation Portable had a slim version called the PSP slim or the PSP lite or something like that.

Anyone with a decent knowledge of that could have made the guess that Sony was going to make a PS3 Slim.

[Saaking]

SONY is just gonna keep pushing boundaries. Thanks to them and their very talented devs we have been able to actually experience TRUE next generation games.Without them, all games would look like multiplats and we wouldn't have masterpieces like LBP, MGS4, and UC2. Sony and PS3 FTW!

[snaz27]

yeah he likes his ps3 MORE and?? you like your 360 MORE does that mean you may not speak of the ps3? lmao... at the end of the day pal he can do what the feck he likes cant he? if its not to your taste then why not eat elsewhere? if you step in dogsh!t do you stay in it all day complaining?

[evrfighter]

uhhhhh so HHG really thinks 3d gaming is possible at 30fps?

Just goes to show that this dude is clueless.

[snaz27]

i dont know if your commenting in relation to my post or because you watched the vid anyway, no hhg is not saying that at all... its more like hdmi 1.4 (allowing 3d gaming) has a bi-product that ALSO allows games to be kinda upscaled (in fps) by your 120fps tv... he says it kinda like this when you watch a blu-ray movie, on a 120hz tv, then your watching it at 120fps, not the 24 fps it was shot at, soooo then if you play a game that was made at 30fps, you would then play it at 120fps on a compatible tv, with compatible leads etc... well thats how i took him anyway... is any of that possible or true?

[Hisiru]

We can exclude that but still HHG has interviews with developers.

@Edit:
I think we should use this kind of article to discuss instead of wasting our time bashing HHG. Isn't N4G a game community?

[Graphics]

I don't about what HHG says, but I have a 120hz tv and it has something called motion flow plus, with it every game gets a huge boost in speed, sometimes i have to even set motion flow off so it can stay locked at 60hz cause in some games it too fast. with it on though games move much more smoother and look much better.

[evrfighter]

The way you describe it would make sense. But console gaming almost always follows pc gaming.

If this formula stays true. Then Sony is basing 3d gaming off of Nvidia's 3dvision which requires a 120hz monitor. Which Viewsonic and Samsung both make already. But for this to work your pc has to be able to handle a constant 120 frames per second.

To do this I would imagine next-gen hardware on a console would require more power than what's running in my pc right now. Sacrifices would have to be made. I would imagine nex-gen games will have to continue to be developed in 720p upscaled. But then

Is that really nex-gen?

To me Sony's vision of 3d gaming is not nex-gen but just another "Natal".

[snaz27]

ok cool sounds good, but the chamges you notice, couldnt they be acheived by the motion flow plus? not by the fact your tv is 120hz? i mean with motionflow plus off, its still 120hz no? im guessing that motionflow plus, is some sort of synthetic or computerised increase in fps, kinda like how the ps3 upscales dvd to hd, by guessing/adding lines to the picture, could motionflow plus be adding/guessing frames? thats why it looks abit funny?

[snaz27]

but the ps3 is not power pc based, infact thats why sony got loads of sh!t from devs, cos of how UNLIKE a pc it is! but yeah on the 3d side it probably does follow nvidia tech, though sony are releasing tvs to go hand in hand with the new 3d tech, anyway my question is not really about 3d, im interested to know whether playing a game on a 120hz tv will change the fps, ie game made at 30 fps played on 50hz tv = 30fps gaming? or does it = 50fps? and playing a 30fps game on a 120hz tv = 120hz gaming, or would it still be displayed at 30fps... and will you notice a difference... also i suppose the question, will watching a blu-ray on a 120hz tv mean that your getting 120fps not 24fps like it was shot? i just dont see how it would work? 24fps mean they took 24 shots in 1 seccond right? then you kinda flicker book it to show a moving image, so then how would your 120hz tv add the other 96 frames or shots?

[Baka-akaB]

Looking back at it and reminiscing ...

He didnt even predict the slim (thought easy to see) ... he was just following the steps of sev who mentioned multiple times features for the console and its firmware , the folks over Playstation lifestyle and a few other PS dedicated blogs ...

[Immortal321]

hate hate hate that's all I hear and you an xboxfanboy you said it yourself so mods can't delete my post.

clearly he's not in your interest but that doesn't give you a reason to come in and blow sh*t up and that goes for all the haters, and another thing he's in the industry hate it or love it that's all you can do.

and another thing posting PLAYSTATION3 in the title gets you alot of hits proof is in the pudding

[Jinxstar]

The human eye cannot see more then about 60 frames. So anymore is useless. It's nerve impulses that are sent to the brain...

Example. Put your hand in front of your face. You can see it clear as day. Now move it vary fast to the left and the right and it becomes a blur. Because the human eye can not process the speed at which it is seeing it... So 120 vs 60 would in essence look exactly the same... Really the difference between 30 and 60 is so minor I don't even see why we do it except to show how high Tech a game is...

HHG You Fail.

[bpac123456789]

he's alright in my book. If you watch the show instead of just commenting on the title you would realize he just brought the first new information on God of War 3 in a long time. and if you pay attention to his interview with one of the DEVELOPERS you would know that the next gameplay video we see on God of War will be kratos on the back of one of the titans. Thats soemthing all of us God of War fans have been waiting too see. So until any of you clowns can bring some new information on a major exclusive like this just shut up and don't click on the link.

[Consoldtobots]

the benefit you will see in playing older games on a 120hz or even the newer 240hz displays is an effect of the vertical refresh rate being "oversampled". So in other words if a game is locked at 30 frames per second than a 120hx display will basically read this vertical sync pulse 4 times while a 240hz display will read it 8 times. So you aren't actually getting more frames just the illusion that the movement appears much more detailed.

[DaTruth]

Talk about biased written work. You left out the article called; "Halo: Reach to best Killzone 2 in graphics"!

Leaving out facts to prove your point! You went through all that trouble to get his PS3 biased articles and left out his 360 biased articles.

HHG is an equal opportunity flamer!

[TheIneffableBob]

@Jinxstar (1.21)

I hate it when people spread that myth around. It is absolutely false.

Read this:
http://www.100fps.com/how_m...

[STK026]

How is Sony going to bring 120FPS gaming? I'm pretty sure a developer can already have his game running at 120FPS on the PS3, or the 360 for that matter. My PC can run games at 120FPS. Or, am I missing something here?

[evrfighter]

"How is Sony going to bring 120FPS gaming? I'm pretty sure a developer can already have his game running at 120FPS on the PS3, or the 360 for that matter"

Because of what's inside the ps3 and the 360 the ONLY way they'd be able to produce 120fps is by making their "3d games" run @ 800x600 res, and absolutely ZERO anti-aliasing with ps2 textures even then that would probably still not be enough.

To put it simply it won't happen this gen. HHG is blowing smoke. Anyone familiar with hardware or technology would laugh in his face if he went around spewing this nonsense. I know I would

The only people that would take this article seriously are the Sony faithful. If it was written by Michael Pachter, posted on VGcharts and sponsored by Kotaku. The Sony faithful would still take it seriously.

[Anon1974]

Didn't they already show off Gran Turismo, Wipeout and MotorStorm in 3D? They had a video demo at CES 2009 and I believe GT3D was playable at the IFA event in Berlin this year.

"Anyone familiar with hardware or technology would laugh in his face if he went around spewing this nonsense. I would."

Are you sure about that?

[kaveti6616]

Holy crap, Darkride. Have you any idea what the hell "theoretical performance" means? The PS3 and 360 and any modern days graphics card only perform about a fraction as well as what their manufacturers promise prior to concrete physical benchmarks. 1080p @ 120 frames per second would be difficult to achieve on a regular basis.

And it all depends on what you're trying to render. From 30fps to 60fps, you halve the number of polygons present on screen. From 60fps to 120fps, you halve that number again. Sony has no reason to want any of their games to run at 120 frames per second. You wouldn't be able to tell the difference anyway.

[gaffyh]

Forget the title, and watch the show. Two GREAT God of War 3 interviews, better than Uncharted 2???

[The Happy Baby]

I think he's right when he says he is recognized in the gaming industry.
He's recognized as a blundering fool.
Devs follow HHG, so they know what to NOT do.
HHG hasnt been right about a single thing. He hurts more than he helps.

[Anon1974]

I think you missed the point. You said "Sony has no reason to want any of their games to run at 120 frames per second." Did you not watch the video? The reason Sony wants 120hz is because that's what's necessary for displaying 3D, which Sony has already shown off on the PS3. Sony has talked about the PS3 being capable of 120fps since back in 2005.

You're operating under the assumption that those graphics cards are maxed out with the number of polygons on-screen. True, if they're pushing their max polygons, in order to bring up the frames per second, something would have to give. That's not what we're talking about here.

And, like I pointed out already, this isn't "theory". Sony has accomplished this already, demoed it (they showed off Wipeout HD running 3d off a PS3 slim at CEDEC 2009) and there was no loss of polygons on screen. I don't know exactly how they're pulling it off, but the point is they did. Right there it stopped being "theory".

Digital Foundry did a piece on how they think Sony pulled this off and concluded that "The biggest titles in the existing catalogue could be patched with 3D updates, and there would be no performance penalty whatsoever."

[indysurfn]

First pS3 needs to live up to the Official Sony Launch promises.

1 Dual 1080p displays (How do you do that with one output,liars?)
2 Cure cancer! (liars)
3 Faster than a series of graphic work stations. (liars)
4 Faster than a super computer. (liars)
5 Suddam Hussein using them to launch nuclear missiles (not official
but they flamed the fires by saying they are making precautions to make sure it does not get in his hands).
6 60 FPS in every PS3 game (liars)!
7 60 FPS in every PS2 game (liars come ON)!
8 7 CPU's (ops make that SPU'S (took a developer debate before they admitted this lie!)
9 Photo realistic 3D graphics on every game(liars)!
10 Better graphics than the xbox360 (with the exception of 2 games they fail) (liars).
11 A online service that will be as good as the xbox360. (okay at least they gave it a effort and tried not liars, just wrong, I respect that)
12 And mapping the human genome (liars)!

That just off the top of my head there are MANY more! Wait they tried to say the CPU was 4ghz then it was debated and proved to be 3ghz! Let me stop I have to get going!

[evrfighter]

"Sony has accomplished this already, demoed it (they showed off Wipeout HD running 3d off a PS3 slim at CEDEC 2009) and there was no loss of polygons on screen"

Games like Wipeout that don't push ps3 hardware can be optimized to run at 120fps if the developers continue to optimize it. As seen on a lot of pc games when the game and the gpu driver software continue to up the fps gain.

your statement is true ONLY to those games that do not push ps3 hardware like kz2, and uc2 do.

With those kinds of titles being put on the ps3 it is STILL theory. There is only so much the SPU can do to help the GPU. Of course being limited in RAM doesn't help at all. You will not be seeing any Uncharted's in 3d until nex-gen. The most you'll be seeing in 3d are psn games. maybe some shovelware titles. If it launches on the ps3 instead of the ps4. It will be labeled as a gimmick and probably fail.

[Anon1974]

True gamers would see this news and say "Awesome. This is an exciting time to be a gamer. I can't wait to see what they do with this tech."

Fanboys are the ones saying "It's theoritical! It'll never happen! First Sony has to make good on other promises!"

What the hell is wrong with you guys? Have you forgotten what it means to be a gamer? If your knee-jerk reaction is to start bashing at the very mention of any system trying to reach new heights, you need to give your head a shake.

@ evrfighter. But we've seen Gran Turismo running in 3D as well, and Motorstorm. Again, it's happened. That's not theory anymore. It's reality. Those games are considered among some of the top graphical achievements we've seen in videogames. And as for Wipeout not pushing the PS3, that just goes to show that you've never played Wipeout. There isn't a single reviewer out there that didn't marvel at the graphics and artistic style of that game.

I don't get you. Any real gamer would be wetting himself at even the thought of a game the caliber of WipeOut capable of running in 3D, let alone Gran Turismo and yet all you can do is bash and deny! We've seen this already. We know it's possible. How can you, as a gamer, not be excited by that? 3D gaming isn't a gimmick, it's nothing short of gaming's Holy Grail, and something as an old gamer I never thought I'd live to see, and it's almost here. I don't even care about the cost once it hits.

@ indysurfn. You're just ridiculous.

[Christopher_Walken]

It's HHG!

oh joy/s

[Blow Out Your Brains]

I usually don't bother to comment because I understand what this maroon's strategy is but seriously those are some lame headlines, give it up already. FEAR 2, Best FPS AI?? Killzone 2 mops the floor with that last gen turd.

[mastiffchild]

I was thinking the same sort of thing. The FEAR2 AI is the best thing about the game('cept maybe the mechs which I thought were quite cool esp as you could bail before they blew up)and compares quite favourably with the AI in most other shooters this gen but KZ2's Helghast flanking you in packs is well beyond anything in F2, imo.

The 9.5 is pretty generous but, in fairness, HHG gives some fairly generous scores anyway so you shouldn't read too much into it-plus it's only one guy's opinion and you aren't forced to take it literally as gospel for everyone, are you?

As for Ninty and the Wii losing a few exclusives I fear that a few will go to PS360 with more going to Sony because of the similar nature of the controls in the wands and Wiimote. However, I think it's mainly going to be those games that undersold on Wii to start with that publishers will want to move rather than get on with a Wii sequel which they'd do(as it's cheaper to dev for)had their game sold really well first time out. Games like NMH(which is confirmed) Madworld and, maybe, Muramasa are what I think are likely to cross the divide(esp with OS being a PS2 game with a small but likely receptive Sony audience). Thing is Ninty kind of only have themselves to blame should a lot of this happen-smaller and niche titles(and maybe just new IP as well)struggl;e on Wii because the newer gamers owning Wiis don't rread the games media, know what's coming up or know what to trust nbecause Ninty don't support or get the needs of third parties as well as PS360. PSN and Live will carry demos for these games which Connect never has, there would be more trailers there in the stotre to download-Ninty failed with carts over CD and it lost them Square and FF back in the N64 days and they seem to still keep a misreading of the needs of other developers and publishers on their systems to this day. Sure, it's made worse by thenewer, lass savvy crowd on the Wii and PSN/Live aren't perfect either but it's a big failing that needs addressing if Nintendo wish to keep all their new gamers as their tastes develop beyond the more sinple games they started with-and good as they are Ninty's first party offerings just aren't enough in number or wide enough in choice to compare with the librabries of third party games on the HD twins-but it needn't be the way it is should Nintendo fully embrace the things they should have from the start of Wii's life.

Of course, should noone adopt "Gem" or Natal it might not be much of an issue unless a lot of the games support full controller options instead like NMH is built to do-but we'll see and Wiiware demos are a step towards what I feel ninty needs to do to safeguard it's interests in the medium term.

Seriously, though, KZ2's AI is a good bit better than anything offered in FEAR2-and not just imo, but lots of people.

[monkey nuts]

I liked FEAR 2, although imo the slow down time mechanic made the game too easy at times but in no way does it come close to matching the AI of a certain fps that came out earlier this year. That ain't fanboi'ism its logic.

[egm_hiphopgamer]

@YoungKiller lol nothing I have ever said came true huh? well are you fan of Street Fighter 4, are you fan of the upcoming Super Street Fighter 4, well if you are such a fan and you follow that game who was the first to announce it and confirm it back in MAY'09 I think you've just been shut down homey enjoy the show and stop hatin

[Reevr]

Whoopdy freakin do... You got ONE thing right...

[N4PS3G]

lol something you probably read somewhere else came true?! :O WOW

You just scored 1 out of 20,238,087 !!! GO Catch 'em Tiger!!

[BigMassacre]

Well, that may have happened, but it's not like it wasn't expected. Every major Street Fighter release since II has gotten some sort of revision or two.

Wasn't much of an "OMG" surprise announcement. I could have guessed that the very same day that the regular SFIV came out.

[Jdash24]

You do this show weekly and the only example you have of your predictions being right was a fairly obvious prediction from 7 months ago. That's sad...

[ZombieAutopsy]

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day....

I dont really hate your show i just dont like how you usually make absurd predictions that rarely come true and most of your headlines are just for hits.

But keep doing what you enjoy i guess, its not like everyone in the gaming news industry is liked anyways right.

[mac4u10]

lol owned

[Baka-akaB]

Lol i can't believe that bullsh*t , HHG you werent the first to announce SSF4 ... far from it .

I wont comment on your other exclusive news , since i dont even really follow them , so i wont affirm or deny anything about them , but super sf4 ?

Hell every news leaked or given by Capcom follow so far , to the letter , the rumored list of features fans with insider knowledges have been posting over street fighters and fighting dedicated forums for many months .

i'm more convinced one fellow member , and actually fan of your show , pointed it out to you . Funny thing , is Ono wasnt even trying to hard it , and giggling about it at every SF4 tourney he was going to .

Also like someone pointed out , in the case of the slim and SF4 , it wasnt hard to figure out , given Sony's and Capcom's history that they would release sooner or later , new versions of their console and of the game .

[retardednickname]

You´ve made like 900 perdictions and one came true? Grats?

[-Alpha]

Any person can make predictions and be right or wrong. Just because you cherry pick something you predicted that came true doesn't make you some valid source.

People hate you for numerous reasons, and sometimes people are going to be stupid. I see people call you names, stupid things, etc.

However, I feel the issue people have with you is that your titles are always pro-Sony, and very exaggerated. It just seems you do more harm to the PS3 name than good, and it's clear from your fans that you feed this pro-Sony attitude to PS3 fanboys.

Additionally, you seem to make unnecessary jabs at the 360. I don't mind that, but I would like to think you'd blog it and not report it as news.

[ASSASSYN 36o]

I got a prediction. Next week you will come out with another over blown title and useless information.
*Puts sunglasses on*
Prove me wrong.

[deadlyliquidxxx]

i live in bedstuy, hook me up with some hoes!!!

[monkey nuts]

'been shut down'.

[BattleAxe]

Yo HHG, I can't believe how so many people on here are so critical even after 2 years. Congrats on your 2 years in the gaming industry!

[SilverSlug]

He does a show with rumors. I watch it for the interviews and such, its entertainment. I think alot of the people around here are just jealous.

If you don't like the show, ignore it.

[Baka-akaB]

except again his example isnt even true . But you're right , it's easy to ignore his show .

[tordavis]

Hiphopgamer, video games run at their native refresh rate on 120hz LCD’s. Only DVD/HD-DVD/Blu-ray and some tv are affected by the refresh rate. The Playstation and Xbox only output a max of 60hz. Stereoscopic 3D requires two fields so that would be two 60hz fields giving you a combined 120hz. 120hz does not equal 120 true fps. When the image is sent to the tv there’s motion interpolation and frames are added by the TV.

Here:

Some displays that run at 100Hz or more add additional technology to address blurring issues. Motion interpolation can cut the amount of blur while adding to the latency by inserting extra synthesized in-between frames. Some LCD TVs supplement the standard 50/60 Hz signal by interpolating an extra frame between every pair of frames in the signal so the display runs at 100 Hz or 120 Hz depending on which country you live in. The effect of this technology is most noticeable when watching material that was originally shot on 35mm film, in which case the typical film judder can be reduced, at the cost of introducing small visual artifacts. Film that is viewed with this kind of processing can have a smoother look, appearing more like it was shot on video, in contrast to the typical look of film. [11]

The PS3 can’t even sustain 60fps on 100% of their games and you are telling the public that with a firmware update and a new cable they will be able to sustain 120fps.

[snake-OO]

i know exactly what my boy hiphop is talking about with the 3d 120hz tech, he wasnt saying older games but newer future games could use this feature. it shows how many of u guys actually watched or payed any attention to the vid.

[logikil]

Aside from making yourself look really uninformed with your discussion about 120hz televisions translating into 120 fps, you also seem to come to this conclusion that hdmi 1.4 can in anyway be taken advantage of by the PS3. Here's a little lesson from HMDI.org:

Can older HDMI (v.1.0 - 1.3) devices be firmware-upgraded to take advantage of the new features introduced in HDMI 1.4?

Probably not. Most of the new features introduced in HDMI 1.4 will require a new HDMI chip to enable, and cannot be upgraded via firmware.

It is highly unlikely that the ps3 is going to be able to utilize any of the features of hmdi 1.4. That's like saying that USB 2.0 devices would be able to utilize the features of USB 3.0 devices. Now yes the PS3 can get a firmware upgrade to enable 3D, but that has nothing o do with hdmi 1.4.

Please, please, please stop trying to talk tech man. It's like when you try to explain computer programming or explain the differences in tech behind the PS3 and 360. It makes heads explode man.

[Britney Spears]

goldeneye wont happen,remember they tried to get it but Nintendo didn't allow it. also hhg ignore the haters,that is why they post anyways every week,they are interested obviously. And try to see if you can get info on socom 4 or a new syphon filter.

[Cheeseknight28]

F.E.A.R. 2 (9.5/10)

LOL, FEAR 2 was garbage compared to the original.

[-Seven-]

FEAR 2 was rubbish and the controllers felt a little off.

The AI was ok but not as HHG makes it out to be.

[Socomer 1979]

Dude, I'm surprised that you're the last one to find out that Natal will never happen.
Natal will never be released to the public. How silly does the fake gaming media feel being duped at E3?
Natal has failed before it ever got mass produced. Trust me, I have more inside info than hhg.
Lol oh man alot of hearts are going to be broken.

[Baka-akaB]

I disagree , Patcher have been wrong far more often and unlike HHG damaging .

I'll give at least HHG the credit of being agame fan , a bit obsessed and weird , but still a fan .

PAtcher is some old dude making money out of a market he couldnt care about . He's some smug fake medium going like "why whould i play that when i already drive a porsche ?" when mentioning the likes of Forza and GT .

[monkey nuts]

I heard something about that a couple of weeks ago. Just dismissed it at the time but now, now its time to use my good friend google.....

[qwertyuiopasdfghjkl]

I haven't watched the video yet because I don't watch HHG...

But, I do not agree with FEAR 2's score. Condemned 2 on the other hand? Excellent sequel.

[Xwow2008]

just i gnore the haters , the reason they put their comments because they care about ur news. :)

[blue7xx7]

LOL I love how every single Hiphopgamer article always get approved by the same people. So basically the HHG has multiple accounts that he uses to approve his stories isn't that cheating. If you check the info on all his stories the same people always approve his stories Agenxt-X, Havocmaker, Swiffepics and a few others. Isn't that cheating?? I mean I would be okay if those people approved other stories but they don't they only seem to come in when the HHG submits a story.

[jayblings]

Cheating?? What is he cheating at? I didn't know this was a game and/or competition?

[whothedog]

@blue
You need to stop taking this so personally, it is just a video.

:)

[cereal_killa]

Blue most of those people who approve his trash work on his site and there's a Mod on here as well who approves his junk, it's the only way HHGs flamebait stories gets on here. I remember 1 story he put on here was so full of crap that it was reported to the point that it was failed within the hour a mod approved it to be back in the main page.

[Rio-Hustla-Inc]

Guys, you can hate on HHG all you want with the articles. And you can claim he is making this up and that up. But you can't ignore the fact that the guy has sources. You see him in his videos doing interviews with game developers and reps from Sony & Microsoft. The guy is at nearly every major gaming event out there. Hell I even ran into this guy myself. I don't think it's fair to say that he's clueless and he makes everything up when you and I clearly see's him in constant contact with gaming officials. Lastly, if you are a true GAMER, then how can you NOT get excited about this guy show or his articles? All he talking about is *GAMES*. PRO SONY? Any true gamer will be PRO-SONY because the PS3 is the most powerful system ever created. What other console has 8 processors? What other console has built in Blu-Ray? What Other console has Built In Hard drive in every unit standard? What other console has true HDMI 1.3? What other console provide High Definition Sound? What other console has Uncharted 2? God Of War 3? Exactly. Stop hating

[-Alpha]

NOBODY is arguing that he doesn't have sources!

But that does NOT justify bias!

That is why people are against him: not because he in nontraditional, but because his titles are all pro-Sony. He seems to jab the 360, etc.

The logic of just because he has sources makes him legit is ridiculous.

Do you turn a blind eye to Gamespot with the Kane & Lynch/Jeff scandal? Well according to your logic, who cares as long as they have sources!

Fox News is criticized for being biased, but who cares! They have SOURCES!

See how ridiculous your defense sounds?

So please, I'd love to hear a rational response to this, because I think it's ridiculous to say that just because he has sources he should be taken seriously.

[Rio-Hustla-Inc]

PS3 FTW baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[trancefreak]

Its entertainment and hiphop knows how to entertain. i dont believe half the crap i hear in this world but sometimes its cool to have someone bring behind the scenes info true or not to ones imagination .

Its really up to you to analyize bs or truth.

Like I said its entertainment.

[Coheno]

No More Heroes on 360 and PS3 won't support motion controls! So stop using it as an example of your superrumoring!

[Punch-o]

Good show man.Glad i waited on buying a new hdtv im lookin foward to 120 Frames Per Second Gaming.

[qwertyuiopasdfghjkl]

HHG is wrong. I can spend a good amount of my time explaining why... but I really don't feel like it.

Instead, why not visit the beyond3d forum? You might learn a thing or two about rendering and other nonsensical gaming tidbits.

[snaz27]

but im guessing its all the 120hz gaming buisness... so when you watch a blu-ray on a 120hz tv, is it true that you get 120fps, even though its only shot at 24fps? (this is what hhg said) and if that is true (which i doubt) wouldnt the same be possible for gaming? maybe hdmi 1.4 brings some major improvments we dont know about? but then ill say again i thought ps3 used hdmi 1.3?

[qwertyuiopasdfghjkl]

My LCD from Samsung can display 120hz, when I enable it, it takes 60hz input and processes the extra frames between each real frame.

Ok, so when I would play KZ2 for example in 120hz mode, the game renders at 30fps, outputted from the PS3 at 60hz, then that is processed into 120hz.

Essentially, to get that 120 *frames*, 3 extra "made-up" frames are sort of sewn together.

If you run a 24hz Bluray film, your really just destroying what 24hz is meant for initially, which is providing a theater- like experience. Now because 4 extra inserted frames are "made-up" for the 24hz to 120hz conversion, this will create an eerie rush effect on the video, making character movement look outlandish, but vehicular scenes smooth as butter.

Into the argument against HHG, technically yes, your getting 120hz with this new update, but its a folly type of 120, and definitely not running 120 like he claims. From what I've read, the specs haven't been finalized, some say they'll run 120hz for each polarization, or each eye respectively. 200+ hz is overkill IMO, I'm sure instead they'll opt for the other rumor I've heard about it running @ 60 per eye.

Even so, the big thing about this update, which is where HDMI 1.4 comes in... the PS3 will be outputting 120hz+ for the 3D effect. This will indeed cut out the middleman, which is the post processing done by the television. Instead the TV will just display whats given to it, 120hz.

Will the games be viewed in 120hz? Yes they will.

Will the games then, be *rendering* (running) in 120 frames per second? No. They will remain the same. 30fps games will be sickening to play, while higher framed games like Call of Duty and the like, will feel much smoother.

All of which, will look amazing in "3D"

[Shadow Man]

-__- .....stk stk stk >_>

[GiantEnemyBOT]

It's "tsk tsk tsk", fool. Can you get anything right?

[Solid_Snake666]

that made me laugh

[Jamescagney]

This was HHGs first lesson in journalism- http://www.youtube.com/watc...

[Xi]

Because I used this exact same tactic on HHG a while ago to prove that he'll do a story on anything.

I referenced a videoblog of Johnny lee chung, wii headtracking guy, about a new possible controller system that MS might be developing.

Lo and behold he turned it into a full story.

[Socomer 1979]

Yes he does but his sources feed him misinformation or he has a hard time understanding what's being said...
Because he's stupid.

[Zishyfish]

Biologically speaking, it won't make a difference to anyone playing the game since the human eye can only detect so many frames.

[Shnazzyone]

I am unsure if any display is even capable of doing that many frames per second. That's sony, inventing technology that wont matter until 3 years later. Really, noone is capable of seeing the difference between 60 and 120. Hip Hop gamer is so full of crap. I'd like to see his sources for Wii losing exclusives too because last I checked they seem to be getting more every day.

[qwertyuiopasdfghjkl]

The difference between 60, 120, and above are clearer than your mothers well toned buttocks.

Unless your drunk of course, because then your brain is processing about 10 or 11 "frames per second".

[Stunt]

Every week I check out these posts to see the same thing: people complaining about HHG, people defending HHG (usually using the word "haters" as a means of attacking them), and HHG coming in for a comment or two, most of the time absolutely nonsensical.

I'm one of those complaining. HHG is getting really annoying with his pile ups of rumor upon rumor. It's great that he's getting interviews and what not, although he isn't getting details that the world doesn't already know.

Super Street Fighter IV, if he predicted it (I didn't actually watch that one, so I don't know the time frame of when the episode was done, meaning he could of got it off the numerous sites reporting a rumor on the game), then that's one for him, I guess. Of course, anybody could've predicted it the day Street Fighter IV came out. History repeats itself, and so it does with the Street Fighter series. Anybody could've seen it coming.

These need to stop getting approved. They're not helping the news stream at all. These comments only fuel his popularity, which means in order for him to go away, his "news" shouldn't get approved.

[Baka-akaB]

that's the thing here , i dont care about other things he said today ...
But we do know he didnt predict SSF4 . And indeed anyone could/saw that coming .

I dont mind much his crazy titles and rumors , but at least dont give yourself credits when it isnt due .

[Redempteur]

Escuse me .. everyone

i'm prédicting the PS4

and 3 years after the PS4 slim

HERE i'm FIRST !!

did you know about modernwarfare 3 ??
i'm predicting it too !!( scoop : the story of MW2 continues )

I can't believe i know that much !

I'm on a roll so i'm predicting assasin creed 3 !( starring desmond in animus 3.0 )

I can't believe how profressionnal i am .

[justlikeme]

But feel the need to comment on his show. No one but yourself cares. And to the rest of you haters quit posting these stupid hate comments like anyone cares about what you think.

HHG is at game shows/events that you all are probably watching from your computer or tv.

Man, the jealousy never stops. Keep doing your thing HHG, and listen as these haters hate, while your money piles up.

[Baka-akaB]

i say some people react far too strongly ... and probably true that some people were too happy to snap at the mention of hip hop and some slang .

i've even seen people call him retarded based on some grammar (in wich case the guys attacking arent that smart themselves , given the numerous errors you can easily find on alleged profession sites) , and many nasty other things that shouldnt be thrown around .

But i can understand some of the dislike ...
Indeed he now get places , but how did he get there ? Obviously he had some natural knack to attract people ...

But he still got there feeding people his spin on rumors , infos and tidbits he glaned from other blogs and multiple forums . And then you have his militia going up their face all "hey man , da boss is legit and da real deal yo! He got insider pass and invites to shows!!"

It could be peaceful and smooth , if to begin with , he actually credited the source that arent his . At least for some of us who dont hate the man , just dislike his work ethic so far .

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

HHG - Twisted Metal: Black ran at 120 FPS.

[ASSASSYN 36o]

Anyone bother to look at the people who approve this crap? They approve it at the same time, and it is the same consistent people. Suspect.

[Neo604]

He have more connection with dev. and have access content that average Joe don't.
Most of what he said are highly possible, or it does sound like a great idea.

[Dawn_Of_Ashes]

this guy need to be baned from the internetz.

[NotSoSilentBob]

Who's worse?

Patcher or HHguesser

[Baka-akaB]

Patcher easily.

HHG only got as much effect as anyone would allow . If you dont fllow every hype , it wont damage you . If you're a blind fanboy and fool , you were already blind anyway .

But patcher not only gives financial advices that are followed by some companies , but is quoted multiples times a week (unlike HHG whom you only suffer , and only if you want , once a week) by various sites and mag , and even inject himself into videogames shows .

[Bluemaster77]

120 fps gaming is just not possible this gen point blank !

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Then why did Twisted Metal: Black run at 120 FPS on the PS2?

[qwertyuiopasdfghjkl]

1.120fps is possible on any console. "Graphics optimization" ring a bell?

2.120hz is what all this jazz is about, and yes, it too is possible, and its coming.

[whateva]

he must be getting mad money from all the hits he be getting from these tittles

[Rio-Hustla-Inc]

@Alpha Male, Wow first your dissing HHG and now you are comparing him to GameSpot & Fox News? The guy is not reporting news he is reporting rumors things that he is hearing from his sources. That's why it's called The Hip Hop Gamer ***SHOW*** If he is spending time talking to developers & press, then he has to know a few more things than we do. Also, who cares if he is Bias. Wow, 97% of the websites out there are bias towards 360. That's just the way of the norm nowadays. And it's logical, these are American Websites & journalist who are bias towards an American system. Are you that bitter over HHG representing the mere 3% for PS3? lol that's pathetic.

[chewmystink]

I currently have 3D setup with Samsung 22" 120Hz monitor, true 120Hz not your TV interleaving frames like SONY or SAMSUNG or other brands advertise with 100hz and now 200 hz and now 400hz that is not what you need for 3D that is fake and not a true 120Hz signal being fed.
Anyhow I also have a Samsung plasma that does do 3D but uses "checkerboard 3-D" format to accomplish this so I loose vertical resolution by half. The Samsung monitor however gives me a full resolution 1680x1050 with 60Hz to both left eye and right eye hence 120hz, effectively better picture. The checkerboard method I have found doesn't cut down that much with the resolution but what cuts down with 3D on both is frames per second. Movies isn't a problem and will give 1080P 60Hz to each eye like sony says but I can assure you gaming will be a big dip in performance as it has to render 2 frames of information one for left eye one for right eye. Anyhow bring it all on about time 3-D went prime time.
So sum it all up, you don't need 120fps performance for 3-D as often my pc is dipping under 30fps, think people confuse fps with tv/monitor signaling

[Kroganwrex]

Gears of war 2, Uncharted 2, Killzone 2, Mass effect, etc etc ALL 30fps. Seeing a pattern now?

60fps means toning down the visuals and lack of aa for example. 120fps simply isnt an attainable number for this generation unless all you want to play is psn or xbox live arcade games.

[Baka-akaB]

well i could settle for XBl games as good and pretty as Wipeout HD and Fury .

But your opinion is , so far , at least partially true . We wont see 1080p at 60fps running without tricks and compromise before the next gen of consoles .

[Persistantthug]

Also, as we've all been told, Gran Turismo 5 is set to run at 1080p at 60 frames. Also White Knight Chronicles is supposed to be the first console RPG to run at that rate as well.

[Baka-akaB]

i said without tricks , not that it doesnt happens . After i did mention wipeout HD .

But so far , most existing 1080p 60 fps games could be more detailled a resolution behind .

[rbluetank]

i can not wait to see what sony is cooking!!!

[Rowsdower]

there is no better example of whats wrong with gaming journalism

disagree all you want but the only one gaining anything from this is hiphopgamer, the rest of us are subjected to the same BS week in and week out.

[tordavis]

All games play at their native refresh rate. Only DVD/HD-DVD/Blu-Ray and some tv take advantage of 120hz.

[ps3hasnogamess]

yo man.. the hip hop is a garbage man... YO!

[ps3hasnogamess]

nintendo is fine in the market...

not need worried then nintendo hh noob.

[marcosjuniorbr]

HHG keep doing your job! Don't care about haters!

[bjornbear]

hate is an emotion, and a strong one at that, and i doubt most people here have any emotions towards HHG.

however, many people think he's a joke, and are humored by him.

Basically, he gets hits, but its because he's a freaking joke, not because we are "haterz", HHG isn't even worthy of that level of interest.

but, since him and his little posse always manage to approve this trash, we as members of a community ridicule him, because lets face it, we all like a good laugh

and HHG is the biggest joke on the gaming web =P

[Solid_Snake666]

simple if you dont like it dont watch it ....congrats on 2yr aniversity

[egm_hiphopgamer]

This is for N4PS3G take a look at this because it's one of many titles I have where Microsoft gets the shine, so when you do your research on me make sure it's not one sided hater. oh by the way thanks for the support i know you love the hiphopgamershow peace.

[NotSoSilentBob]

Keep telling yourself that the 360 will win and you will convince yourself they win.

[Solidus187-SCMilk]

I think microsoft will release a gun controller to use with natal. Who knows about goldeneye tho. Id rather play online goldeneye with two analogues but the game could be cool with natal. You could do a karate chop and it would do the pierce bronson b@tch slap.

[ULTIMATE_REVENGE]

Games running at 60fps will be bumped up another 60fps easy but it might cause a weird shield looking flare around the characters when they're in motion.

I've played UC2 on a 100Hz TV but I turned it off because it causes the weird fuzzy flare I was talking about but that's because the PS3 currently doesn't support 120fps.

Once this update comes out the hardware itself will be able to support more fps than my TV can even support which means UC2 with the 100Hz feature switched on my TV should run fine (the PS3 will most likely allow me to run the game at 100Hz and knock off the extra 20Hz)

[DEATHSTROKE-cro-]

WTF
F.E.A.R. has best A.I.???
No,Killzone 2 has best A.I.
everyone who played it knows that

[vid33nyc1]

Complete bull.120fps gaming?What?The human eye cant see past 60fps anyway so this doesnt make a lick of sense.

[egm_hiphopgamer]

lol if the human eye can't see pass 120hz why do we have 120hz and 240hz tv's on the market for people to see?

[Bluemaster77]

that doesnt change the fact that games run at there native locked frame rates no matter what at least this is whats suggested by all past technological laws

[darkequitus]

HHG, I suggest you look up on how the human eye works and the brain perceive image to get you answer.

In short, the more frame displayed, the less change you brain will perceive and absence of an image (an exaggerated example will be a flip animation book). You don;t get that in real life, because the world is persistent and not a collection of frame, 240Hz TV gets closer to that. That is not the same a Actually perceiving 240Hz.

[Gun_Senshi]

Do you even know the difference between a 120 FPS Game and 120 Hz TV?

God you're a clown, not a journalist.

[bjornbear]

the brain perceives anything that is faster than 25fps as fluid motion.

Anything lower looks choppy.

thats why lowest FPS is 30, so it'll never look choppy.

60 fps adds to the fluidity of the images, allowing more to be displayed fluidly without looking disconnected, and also gaining a "smoother" look.

120 fps goes beyond that, however, after a certain point, it doesn't make a bloody difference.

I'm a PS3 only owner, and i love hearing new break through's by Sony, but tbh, i could care less for 120fps

HOWEVER: 120 is necessary for 3D imaging, since its basically feeding 2 images at 60 FPS, therefore having to pump out 120fps over all..

but you didn't know any of that did you HHG...thought so...

EDIT: just noticed you confused Hz with fps...pathetic =/

just to help you:

fps = frames per second (as to, how many still images per second go into making a moving image)

Hz = in this case, refering to Hz as in clock speed (frequency of computations) - the higher the hz, the greater the processing power.

One very destinct from the other.

[jack who]

oh boy

[Captain Tuttle]

Don't let these whiny kids get you down. Congrats on the 2 year mark.

[Rowsdower]

being a hater implies jealousy, no one here is jealous of hiphopgamer

what we are talking about is the predictable formula of his "news" and how it has grown tiresome over time. so stop trying to dismiss real criticism with pithy one word come backs because those of us who are not sycophants can see right through it. Also hiphopgamer dont delude yourself with the praise of yes men because when you fall, they wont be there.

Edit: look at that a disagree, now that puts a smile on my face, anything less and I would think my words have no effect at all.

[ForROME]

The problem with hip hop gamer is, hes ghetto, its that simple

[GrandDragon]

My youngest sister and the rest of my family and friends can see the difference between 60HZ and 100HZ on our Samsung TV so you're wrong there.

But anyway's Ken Kuatargi never promised 120fps gaming but he did say that it is possible for the PS3 to produce games that run at 120fps. what I want to see is a game running at True 1920x1080 60fps.

[ForROME]

I agree people are ridiculous with their "the human eye can only see"

Will you stop already, you can see the differences anyone I know who watches transformers with 120 on and off can tell the difference

and I agree I would like to see 1080P at 60FPS first in full texture quality before we get caught up on 120hz etc

and still Hip Hop Gamer and his show, are G H E T T O

[Justin_bristoe]

hhg is my dawg.shut up or we'll find u and drag ur geeky ass in the street for fun billy

[Teh Cell]

Well, perhaps you could ask your boyfriend to stop acting like he's selling crack in the ghetto, and actually present his point in a way that's not embarrassing to watch. Oh, and if he could stop making up lies and flamebait titles, that would be just swell. Thanks.

[Wardog1368]

how pointless, Your eyes can't even see that fast. 0_0

@ForROME - I agree in the sense that you can tell a difference but as technology progresseses, will we really be able to tell that 240 or 480 fps is better? I really don't think that will be the case.

[Justin_bristoe]

you guys are all losers for taking the time week after week raining in hhg's threads lol

[Henry Cain]

Keep up a good work HipHopgamer. A lot of these cats just like to hate. They want to see you fell, but I don't see any of them rubbing shoulders with any game developers. A least your getting in the door to talk to some of the major players in the game industry.

[TrevorPhillips]

Oh haters just be quite all right, he is right all the time. so stop commenting on his articles if you know its from him.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Twisted Metal: Black ran at 120 FPS. David Jaffe said he regretted doing that because it's just TOO fast. It confuses the eye.

60 FPS is the sweet spot.

[Pandamobile]

All my most played games run at ~200 FPS (TF2, L4D2, L4D, pretty much that isn't Crysis runs over 100 on my computer) and I can assure you that my eyes are not confused.

[darkequitus]

True,

But they don't display at that FPS. Hence why I V-lock most games when I can.

[Pandamobile]

I doubt there are many games that would run at 120 on the PS3. They'd have to cut back the graphics quite a bit.

[Blasphemy]

This dude is a god damn joke. LOL he will say anything to get hits.

[GUCommander]

Just because there are more frames per second, doesn't mean it is better...Other systems cap FPS at 60-80 because...well....more than that is stupid.

[jalen247]

Wow. You guys are such haters. Keep up the good work HipHopGamer. Nice video article. GOW is my favorite franchise. I can't wait to see the GOW III footage that you saw. God Bless.

[undercovrr]

keep it up HHG! I love your show and I watch it every week!. Dont listen to these people. They are mad because you actually post NEWS on this website, which it lacks. Ignore all the haters, cuz their just jealous, or probably forgot what real news is. After all thats what this website does for you.

[360 is done for]

Clearly possible on ps3

[horris36]

Wow instant 120 frames a second for every single game, sounds incredible. Sony could dowright win the console war with this.

[ASSASSYN 36o]

I seriously think this fool confused 120 fps with 120hz. The only games the ps3 will be running at 120 fps is pong, and pac man.
And Ken Kutaragi said the ps3 will run 120fps in 2005. So where is the 120fps games people. But we are just hating...or maybe we are being dramtical. LOL!

[DelbertGrady]

My mother taught me that it's not polite not to laugh at retards but in this case I just can't help myself.

[dmansodo]

we are talking about videogames man. you guys are freaking losers complaining about hhg. message to all punks on here, stop coming in here and watching the show if you hate him so much. go to ign or gamespot and watch their stuckup ass videos.

[kraze07]

What does being black have to do with defending HHG? Just curious.

[danthaman15]

Way to be a bigot.

"Only black people would like something of this quality cuz all black people watch out for each other, amirite?"

[Pandamobile]

Yes.

[danthaman15]

Panda, I hope you're joking at this point. Did a gang bully you at school or something?

heres the deal what if all of you are wrong and what if it is announced from sony and it is true with 120? let the rumors be rumors but dont come here to dis someone who works hard to get sources for us gamers even if it is just rumors some of em are true also if you think you can do better go make your own video and see what you can do if hes the voice for the ps3 fans then why dont you haters make videos for the 360 fans. you hate but you cant do what he does. if you can then what are you waitin for? let him do his job its not his fault that hes good at it HHG boyyyyy!!!

[Rowsdower]

its not what he does, its the way he goes about it that has grown tiresome to some of us. its like talking to a brick wall.

[Tr10wn]

120fps=60fps tah HHG Show!!!!!!!

[TABSF]

Its only 60FPS

The way stereoscopic 3D works is the display or the projector has to project 2 images at the same time

Vertical Synchronization (Vsync) is used to cap frame rates so the system does not overheat, basically only uses what is required, its used in all consoles and PC

The Vsync is usually at 60FPS because refresh rates on all LCD Monitors and TVs are 59Hz or over , with stereoscopic 3D the Images has to be displayed twice so that is why we would need these Nvidia 3D vision ready monitors or TVs

Screen tearing occurs because the frame rates are much higher then refresh frames, if you have a TV that only does 720p or 1360 by 768p and run it at 1080i you will get screen tearing, this is because of 1080i only runs at 29Hz or 30Hz max were as the games or consoles Vsync is set at 60FPS, This is not an issues on PC as the user can modify the settings.

So its not 120FPS as such just 60FPS per images so the illusion of 3D occurs naturally, choppy frames rate may course nausea

Visuals are likely to be even worse on PS3 and 360 as most games have frame rate drop outs, with the 120Hz monitors and 2 60FPS images this will chock the PS3 and 360 for everything. More YLOD and RROD (E74) on the way

[MegadethAndy]

The way I see it is... HHG brings much more good news to this site than you haters do. He brings interviews with developers, and talks about upcoming titles and tech.
Even if half the stuff he tells us is true, thats still more than you buggers manage.

At least its not about some video of a kid humping his new xbox 360 he got for Christmas.

God bless HHG, and forgive the haters.

[likedamaster]

What a joke this guy.

[Gun_Senshi]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Guess your IQ is less then 20 if you think FEAR2 has good AI.

[kraze07]

Guess you haven't played FEAR2. I wouldn't say it has the best AI, but it beats out most other games on the market right now.

[Gun_Senshi]

Its pre scripted AI, its dumb just always acts the same.

[avengers1978]

If this dude ever had facts to report, or valid stories it would be interesting to hear what he has to say, but since he usually has BS and False Facts then his show is really a waste of time.

[EvilTwin]

Wow, news from 2005.
http://www.gamespot.com/new...

Heck, Ubisoft says Red Steel 2 will have parts locked at 85 FPS, and that's on Wii.
http://wii.ign.com/articles...

So sure, 120 FPS on the PS3 will happen (it's only been a matter of when for a long time).

[SSCOOLCHEA]

He is only trying to make his bread . if you mfkers are always disagreeing with him or don't believe him do your own fkn research and make your fkn video. Why dont we stop approving articles from kakataku , ign , just to name a few . Because there all stupid as well. What we should stop approving is articles that compared ?? You can't compared shlt every mfkers has there own opinion and that opinion always favor what console you own ....

PROPS TO HHG FOR DOING HIS THING , IN AMERICA IF YOU DONT LIKE SOMETHING YOU CAN TURN HIM OFF . BUT THIS IS AMERICA PEOPLE LOVE TO FKN COMPLAIN ABOUT SOMETHING THEY DONT LIKE WHEN AGAIN YOU CAN TURN IT OFF..

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL

[scruffie1]

Im confused, are we talking about a game that can handle 120 fps or are we talking about a game optimised for 120 hz tvs which is completely different.

Im assuming the latter i think this is Sony releasing games to be compatible with 3d tvs (60hz + 60hz) - which will require most people to purchase a new tv.

Unless we are talking about a 2d PSN game there is no way a hi-res 3d title with lighting and shadow effects can run 120fps on the ps3.

[Allowen]

How a game that was made to run at 30 or 60FPS will suddenly start running at 120 frame/sec ??

Is it not 120Hz because of the new TVs instead 120frame/sec ??

[scruffie1]

my understanding is that both source and display use there own very different fps

-The display (monitor/lcd etc)
As digital tv's display can only be on and off (like binary) the faster the display turns on and off the more it appears clear - the more hz the more stable the picture (more flashing but faster - less obvious to the human eye)

-Source
fps in a pc/console sense refers to the amount of frames the hardware can handle without being sluggish and unbearable. <- like playing doom 3 with a 128 mb graphics card

[ForROME]

Ghetto, that should be the name of him and the show, this show is weak lame and GHETTO

[Persistantthug]

You obviously like him enough to keep watching his shows and commenting multiple times in the same comment section and helping his N4G article reach over 1,000 degrees.

[mrbattle420]

well I think he mess up In this one cuz he need do know that fps is not the same as fresh rate or how the game runs and there is resolution,but the news is twisted to sound better!cuz ps3 alredy demo of 3d gaming on a a 120(fresh rate)cuz thats the only way to do it right,hdmi 1.4 is just firmware ,so yeah he is telling the tru and for u info rare is working on 2 games new ip and a projet with old ip on natal and common sense is if there bring banjo and vp the only thing left have to be killer instic and 007 so yeah he is not liyng at all the just need to update his knowleage a little in hardware and dont think that ps3 is the supermachine of the future xbox and ps3 are not that far apart in tech

[artsaber]

360 fanboys said that it was IMPOSSIBLE for the PS3 game to play @1080p resolution @ 60fps. Then came games like Ninja Gaiden Sigma and GT5p. The words you 360 fans used was "IMPOSSIBLE".

I'd be careful in using those words again. But HHG may have some of the spec info confused, I think he may be talking about games optimized for 120hz televisons, which would be awesome if you had a 120hz or above hdtv.

[moja]

Actually, big guy, iirc Sigma's native res is 1280x720. Nice try though. You can check the rest of your facts here:

http://avclub.gr/forum/show...

Personally, I feel a little duped about being promised 1080p to begin with, but I gave up long ago and will hope next time it will be true. I don't mean a handful of native games, either, I mean everything 720, 1080.

Besides that, it perturbs me a little that someone claiming to be 'in the industry' would irresponsibly post something with no actual understanding of their implications.
