Personally I do not care much for 120 fps cause I can not feel or see a difference between 60 and 120 fps. And for games like Dying Light a locked 30 fps is fine in my opinion, but I certainly prefer 60 fps.
Horrible game.... need tons of fixes. Boring sterile Environments, annoying enemies, weapon feeling terrible "no feeling of power or weight", stutter on Series X.
Give me more Skylanders with toys to life, please. Such a great concept, still enjoying the games and the feeling of leveling up my physical toys and place them on the portal, and see them appear in my game. And I am almost 50 yrs old
Gave it a go last night and it was... not fun. Huge almost empty corridors, horrible choppy frame pacing, boring enemies and weapons with no "feeling". And since it is devoid of any blood or guts it felt like it was made for kids and made the weapon feel even less impactful. And that damn "flashers" is possible the most unfun and annoying enemy type ever. Who thought it would be fun to be blinded by white light for a longer amount of period??!!
Would be surprised if this is not "dead" in some weeks or so.
Tried to play Aliens: Fireteam yesterday but did not working. Just got a "Match is starting" and then nothing happened. Or can you not play solo or solo with bots? Or get match with randoms?!
Devkit or not. Trying the game on different TV sizes to make sure the UI is big enough should be the base minimum. The PC version have a slider for UI-size!
I hate it.... because the characters look like goofy toons, a result of high res versions of low poly models with new face textures from Cartoon Network!
It plays best handheld on Switch, cause it is built around that. You can gyro control the camera, take photo vertically and horizontally in a natural way. And the game look fantastic on the Oled Switch!
@Deadcow Agree! Kind of tired of this "beta" releases! It has odd menu lag, v-sync problem, and odd use of button mapping. Also for a fishing game it is strange to not use the rumble to enhanced the feeling... Uninstalled for the time being!
And it is not fair to compare it to Horizon on PS5. It is a game with enclosed areas where you fight maybe tops 3-5 enemies, where Halo is much more open world with air combat and a multitude of different enemies and vehicles. Both are excellent in there own way, but hardly similar games.
Love this game! But they had very limited funding. And official voices is just annoying after you heard them a couple of times. Music from the actual shows would have been nice. BUT the gameplay and foundation is mighty good and I have played it for 20 hrs already and having a blast. And the game have gaining a major traction in the e-sport communities and already there is several tournaments with price money. But if you like Smash-style fighting this is a solid 7-8 already.
I must say that I really enjoy Far Cry 6 on my Series X. It simply gorgeous and play so smooth in 60 fps. And the world building is really nice and the gun play excellent. And the new crazy pet companions are hilarious yet very helpful. I do not know what some peoples problems are with the game? Always "It is the same Far Cry as last time, no innovation...." and yet when they change things people complain. There is tons of fun things to do, so 60$ feels cheap to me, since I want it now. It is the best looking/running Far Cry-game ever on console. That alone is a huge benefits of FC 6!
Scarlet Nexus is a really great game, do not skip on this one if you like great action with some RPG elements!! Own it and it is a blast! Even more so after being patched a few times! Astria Ascending looks so beautiful.
I am also very excited for this game, seems to be just what I want! And it looks fantastic on Series X ! And the price is quite decent, I bought the physical release and it was cheaper then the digital, at around 36ā¬!
Very much agree! I pre ordered the Series X version and I had to double check quite a few times to get the right version and still I am a bit worried they will mix up and send me the Xbox One and Series X version, instead of the pure Series X version!
Nice start on the next gen consoles with story mode tied in with some short tutorial and training sessions. Game looks even better this time! Like what I played so far.
First round was very promising, the feeling was great and the play was tight. Looking forward to test the Bots and some Training features this time around!
Yes, yes! This is really good news!! Ludosity is very talented studio that made one of the best Smash Bros-like games ever, Slap City. They know this genre and what makes it fun. Check it out, it is crazy and really great game play wise: https://store.steampowered.com/developer/Ludosity
Wow! What a massive upgrade. Just tried a couple of game from my browser and they load superfast now. And the picture quality is fantastic with a very low latency.
Sable is quite boring... tried it several times. It looks very nice in some ways but also not. Some populated parts look interesting but the rest is almost totally empty of everything except ground and a stone or two. Severe pop in in many areas.
Loads of dialogue that make not much sense and then run around and look for stuff all at a very slow speed (even on the "hover bike"). Floaty climbing and lots of bugs.
Might be good but it is not that far from release...Sept 23!
This game is really good, gameplay is excellent and it looks fantastic. Played quite much when it was on Steam Demofestival earlier this year. And it was a smash hit with Steam users, still ranking as the second most wished upcoming game on Steam! https://store.steampowered.com/search/?filter=popularwishlist
Tried both and actually settled for the 4K/30 because it is so damn gorgeous in 4K. Work good in 30fps since it was designed for that. And I can change it at any time in the meny.
And the DLSS and similar stuff will very soon be used on consoles and it will help a bunch with 4K and RT.

Re: Dying Light 2 Lead Designer Says Xbox Series S GPU Is 'Holding Us Back' From 60FPS
@Vepra It is a locked 30 fps, so no it is not bad at all in my opinion. I choose almost 4K at 30 fps and it feels great and looks very nice!
