Pure Xbox: We're really counting down the days now until Xbox's massive E3 2021 event! It takes place this Sunday, June 13 in collaboration with Bethesda, and is set to provide 90 minutes of game reveals, updates and Game Pass news.
In the meantime, we've gathered a selection of predictions between some of the staff here at Pure Xbox that we think could come true at the event, either based on rumors, educated guesses or simply wishful thinking!
Proof of concept for a promising new technology.
I did note that the Xbox frame-gen implementation is not perfect. There appear to be intermediate freezing issues when there's a camera cut during cinematics, but while a bit annoying, it does not intrude on gameplay (a quick look at PS5 doesn't see this issue manifest)
Xbox Can’t catch a break recently
"I did note that the Xbox frame-gen implementation is not perfect."
Grasping at straws I see.
In the video John literally says that FSR 3´s implementation on Xbox Series X is far better than the PC version on release, and they are very impressed with the results. Especially considering that they didn´t even expect such performance to be possible achieved from 30fps. Not even AMD itself recommends 30fps for frame generation.
And... perfect? It´s not perfect even on PC to this day, so I´m no sure what you mean by that.
Maybe it´s perfect on PS5, I don´t know. It would be nice if you post the source of the analysis video of the PS5 version you saw to back up your claims.
"Xbox Can’t catch a break recently"
Don´t worry about the Xbox. There´ll be PLENTY of upcoming first party games to take advantage of FSR 3 in the coming months and years.
Indiana Jones, Avowed, Fable, Shattered Space (Starfield), Gears of War 6, Perfect Dark, State of Decay 3 and many many more.
Also, I´m expecting a FSR 3 update for Hellblade II rather sooner than later.
Great times ahead.
"It would be nice if you post the source of the analysis video of the PS5 version you saw to back up your claims.'
no I just quoted from the very article we are commenting on, these were digital foundry's words, saying xbox isn't perfect, but on the ps5 version, it doesn't see the issue manifest.
Console warring over a framerate pause during non-interactive content in a first-of-its-kind implementation in a game no one gave a crap about when it released 9-10 months ago.
Gotta love N4G.
Its promising tech and what's even more funny is that it was DF that was saying it wouldn't work. If fact they were pretty emphatic about it. What's stupid about their claims is that consoles are just specialized PCs. Now imagine if they combine this with a different upscaler like TSR or the upcoming PSSR.
DF act like they know as much as the engineers that work on this software but they are not even close to as knowledgeable they only have tools that give them numbers and then they act like they are experts.
I'd think there's a chance PSSR and frame-gen could yield better upgrade performance for PS5 Pro than PS4 Pro did if this is how well it's going to be working on consoles. I'm curious about input latency though.
MultiVersus launches again today and features four separate kinds of in-game currency, each used to unlock different content.
I sure hope they include paid dlc on top of all the mtx currency types. Maybe if we're really lucky the game will shut down a year from now and i can feel extremely blessed to have enjoyed blowing money on cosmetics! I'm tingly just thinking about it!
I'll be trying it out again but they won't see a dime from me lol
Well games that don't have heinous grinding and progression systems get dropped by their player base because "there's no reason to play." So I guess they are just giving people what they asked for.
ARK: Survival Ascended has introduced Premium Mods on consoles. Wccftech talked to Studio Wildcard and their partner Overwolf about the rising importance of user-generated content, especially for live service games.
