I watched the ps5 video yesterday. The ps5 version is broken and it’s not Sony’s fault it’s Capcoms.

Yeah, its not even no fanboy shyt cause i dont care about devil may cry at all but the way the game is optimized is really weird. They try and go for a 4k native resolution but don’t cap the framerate on the fidelity mode with ray tracing so it bounces all over the place. They also have a 120fps mode which also has somewhat better framerate but still bouncy and looks just like the ps4 version without the RT.

If they had made a dynamic 4k/or 1080p 120fps, or a locked 30fps ray tracing 4k mode it would have been fine, like every other developer is doing.

The only fault with the PlayStation itself is not offering VRR which would mitigate the screen tearing at 120fps but you still also have to have a 4k display capable of 120hz also which still doesn’t absolve the game from being poorly optimized.

A lot of babbling about framerate :unimpressed:
Each has slight advantage in different areas. PS5 loads slightly quicker
No clear advantage for either :unimpressed:

Yeah i havent watched this one yet but faster loading is interesting. And the ps5 has dual sense where you can rev the red queen with your triggers and a bunch of stuff.

I think Capcom is just a sloppy developer, always has been

edit---just watched.

kind of interesting that the framerate mode is faster on ps5 and the resolution mode is better on xbox. Also the ps5 loads faster? Guess the SSD has proven it's usefulness afterall.

The PS5 version runs better in high framerate mode than the Series X. DF is surprised as it drops much lower than the PS5 e.g. 80fps vs 100~120fps on PS5.


The Series X in normal 4K mode seems to run slightly better.

Visually they look identical.

The people who kept talking about buying a console strictly off of marketing "power" is stupid. They're both damn near identical. That "huge gap" people kept bickering about is just not here.

Of course the people who "prefer" the Xbox are going to start talking about optimization and "shytty Crapcom ports".


Oh and

Sony Stans :mjlol:
