    Analysis Digital Foundry: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth: PS5 Pro vs PS5 - A Vast Improvement At 60FPS

    Excited to see this, but to be honest anything would be an improvement over that dog shit upscaler square enix used for the performance mode. In motion, it made FF7 Rebirth look like one of the ugliest AAA games in recent memory. Sony even knew this, which is probably why they gave DF access to...

    Discussion Another PC port that'll flop? Final Fantasy 16 debuts on Steam with 1470 player count

    I don't think a huge bump is in the cards, they probably peak at 20k-25k this weekend. If this was gonna pop on Steam it would have way more today.

    Xbox Do Xbox fans even care about major game releases anymore?

    People like Gene Park declared that 2024 was going to be the "year of Xbox", meanwhile the only game Xbox studios put out this year was Hellblade 2--a boring six hour graphics tech demo.

    Discussion Digital Foundry: FF7 Rebirth on PS5 Pro is a "Night and Day Difference"

    DF are annoying and obvious shills, but they're not stupid and they see the way the winds are blowing. Their potential audience growth has a ceiling if they continue the Xbox bias. Wouldn't be surprised with they start glazing the PS5 pro if Sony starts giving them more exclusive access

    Discussion Richard from Digital Foundry on PS5 Pro: "It will cost you a fair bit more to build an equivalent PC"

    Most people don't want the hassle or have the time to price hunt like a typical PCMR zealot. Of course anyone could do it, but there's a lot of people who'd rather just go for the Pro for simplicity's sake or to save time and effort

    Discussion Xbox to lay off 650 employees

    Seems like a lot of marketing people. Makes sense you no longer need them as you become a third party publisher

    Multiplatform Assassins' Creed Shadows | The World Trailer Released

    The gameplay trailer from a few months ago told me all I needed to know. Looks like the same bland and weightless button mashing combat system from Valhalla.

    Discussion Digital Foundry: FF7 Rebirth on PS5 Pro is a "Night and Day Difference"

    PS5 pro is worth it to me if it means I'll never need to look at that horrendous looking performance mode again in rebirth. I literally stopped playing it an hour in because of how blurry it was.

    I'm not sure how many people are in my spot but I bought several PS5 exclusives in the past 6 months that I've intentionally stop playing early on (FF7 Rebirth, Stellar Blade, Rise of the Ronin) because I want to experience them on the Pro.

    Discussion Reminder: Sony is working with AMD for a handheld with 2teraflops of GPU power

    Denuvo is the current anti-piracy measure on PC. IIRC there's very few people out there who are willing to put in the time and effort to removing from modern AAA PC games.

    Rumor Jez Corden suggests final Fantasy 7 Remake and Final Fantasy 16 might be coming to Xbox afterall

    A few will, but not as many as you assume. The vast majority of people who want to play those games already have. For many different reasons, FF as a series just doesn't have the same popularity it had 20+ years ago..

    Discussion Space Marines 2 prioritized X ox over PS5

    Yes the glazing around it has a manufactured smell. Plus lots of bots and “pc neutrals” weaponizing it against Astro bot gives it away
