GAF; Sony’s acquisition is different to the Zenimax deal because Sony groomed Insomniac from a young ageNo not really.
Sony employee praises Sony product. Can always count on IGN for hard hitting games journalism and interesting articles.
E' buono, ma in questo caso il Vino è veramente buono, direi ottimo = ""Innkeeper, how is the wine? It is good, but in this case the wine is really good, I would say excellent ! The graphics fidelity and SSD/IO speed are in front of everybody, and this just 7 months after Launch, I think Insomniac know what they are talking about. By the way, you might always have a bit of PR, it's absolutely normal, but nobody can deny the quality of this game and the efficiency of PS5 in the right hands. Just forget about 3rd party cross-gen "crap". I promise you, Horizon Forbidden West will crush your jawOste, com'è il vino?!
Why? FIrst party are going to have a more intimate relationship with hardware engineers at the lab over at playstation that are always testing stuff. You think third party who have to work on multiple hardware configs are going to utilize specialized customizations PS5 has?
You would have to be blind not to see the difference between third party use of the hardware and first party. Hell even Returnal has a lot of specialized things going on when it comes to the ssd. I bet what ever their next game is they might leverage the PS5 even more.
Actually they've worked with DX since 2012 till 2019 ( since 2014 on DX12). Fuse, Sunset Overdrive, Song of the deep, Stormland. There are some smaller games for Android and iOS in between
Check Insomniac history in last 9 years. Funny how people ignoring that

I've told you why it does matter and why people here are doing comparisons.
Insomniac already made games for Sony for a very long time. Sony bought them, nothing was lost. Same as PlayGround Games for MS. And it made a very little impact in game industry.
On the other hand Zenimax has a developers with great history behind it and which games are multiplatform and are developed for many console generations.
GAF; Sony’s acquisition is different to the Zenimax deal because Sony groomed Insomniac from a young age
Also GAF; Insomniac are a neutral voice when it comes to praising hardware
Because, that is not necessary for the game to look good.Then why there is no RTGI, shadows, debris,etc on R&C?
Because I find its like reading a review from Official PlayStation/Xbox/Nintendo magazine gushing about an exclusive, maybe it is a great game but I'd be checking multiple other sources before basing my opinions soly on those who are paid or work closely with the publisher of the game.
And it's doesn't matter what they worked on previously, they are currently on Sony's payroll.
I know right. They also benefit from Sony, plethora of outstanding titles in 5 years too.Why are PC fanboys crying up a storm?
PC development is the very definition of constrained, having to develop across the last 5+ years of compatible hardware to maintain minimum specs

Guy that works for company says company product is "the best ever." I wonder if this was a quote from a 343 or Coalition employee about the Xbox Series consoles it would be thread worthy.
it’s the most supply constrained PlayStation ever!
Last gen they had an exclusive Xbox game.Haven't they pretty much only worked with Sony hardware? Good on Sony I guess.
If its unique to one system that means it won't get used.
Why is nvidia releasing a 3080ti when the 3080 is vaporware? AMD released the 6700xt, but does it exist? Nintendo is releasing a new switch even though the old switch outsells everything else ever made.
Companies want money. Expect new stuff to continue to come out until the economy collapses.
Minimum specs exist for a reason. Usually thats around console level hardware.
You’ve got two examples stretching back 14 yearsthat's. ot a hardware constraint that's a business decision/publisher constraint.
Metro Exodus RT shows that this can be ignored if you want tosame with Crysis when it first launched
Jesus fuck no, that would bring this place to the ground. I can already see the dirty dozen going ham on that thread. In fact, some of them, even if a dev appeared gushing over the latest Nvidia GPU, they would find a way tto make it look like he/she is a shill or that power means nothing without artsy games.Except that a large portion of that was before insomniac was purchased by sony.
Are you saying if playground games said series x was the best they have ever worked on this forum would just accept it as unbiased?

Your opinions and stances are as flaccid as a pensioners’ cock.
You will literally just spew out any ol’ bullshit that suits your flavour of the day argument with zero regard for anything that came out prior
There is a huge difference. Playground games NEVER developed games outside DX API. Insomniac did. For 7 years.
Oh really. Look at this. When Corrine Yu, which worked on Halo for 5 years, moved to Naughty Dog and said this :
Isn't that funny when ex DX dev praised a GNMX after the switch. So, back to Insomniac.
Well just saying, they can't really be considered unbiased any more on the Sony payroll.
The point is moreso that it's still less constrained, even if you support a large range of hardware; DOOM 3 launched with a setting that no PC could actually (reasonably) run, until like two years after release:You’ve got two examples stretching back 14 years
I don’t think your point is as strong as you’d like to think
That's something you can do with PC releases because of less constraints, you can just put extremely demanding stuff in even if proper hardware isn't ready yet.The "Ultra" graphics mode included in Doom 3 would not even run on the current popular graphics cards available in 2004, requiring at least 512 MB of video memory to display properly and at playable speeds, meaning that it was basically unusable at the time of release.
I wouldn't make so abrupt comparisons until you really see what the system is capable of. Second; Don't be blinded by PC spec's theoretical numbers.3060 ti + direct storage could best it. But of course the update isn't out yet, but presumably soon. And direct storage will work with every DX12 capable GPU which is a big surprise to everyone, as GPU's from several years back can take advantage of this.
The price to performance is what it is. a 1TB SSD that matches the speed of the PS5s is almost $500 on its own. The more impressive part is the IO, I don't believe that's fully replicable on PC as all parts are separate, even with PCIE 4.0. Linus tried to and ended up with egg on his face if I recall.
ShadowLag "least contrained" not more powerful... It means this is the first time they don't have something limiting that new tech (see above lol)
The PS3 doesnt count for a mountain of reasons....Yeah all you cynics are right lol just a puff piece not like any Sony devs only ever have good things to say about their consoles...And as for you folks saying they say that with every new piece of hardware...eh no lol
it's not like for years the PS2 1st and 3rd party devs complained about the complicated development tools of the Emotion engine etc
And it's not like devs hated the split ram on the PS3 or the uber complicated Cell
And lord knows that NO devs complained about the limited laptop CPU on the PS4 even while applauding the rest of the choices
Christ people, Insomniac might be first party, but they have also proven time and again they can truly push the hardware they are given, so maybe JUST maybe he is being genuine, in a number of previews I've seen the devs have stated this is the first time they basically said "yeah put it in" and didn't have to dumb things down, that's pretty damn exciting

you live in a cave or something? where have you been the past 10 years lolIf its unique to one system that means it won't get used.
