What game are you playing now? (Part 2)

This is why I still love "old fashioned" LED TVs. The natural blur between frames makes 30FPS enjoyable, even if the developer doesn't implement good quality motion blur.

Put 100+ hours into Forbidden West in its pretty 30FPS mode with motion blur tech that even Digital Foundry praised, and it was phenomenal.

Yup, and why I specifically say OLED in my post.

30fps was/is better on CRT & LCD

People will say otherwise, but 30fps is bordering on unplayable, especially on OLED

I’d definitely like to play it on shadps4 though- it’s looking amazing currently

It comes a bit with buyer beware: It is still same thing over again with emulation - the best emulation is the actual hardware itself. You can set this up like I did last night but its not perfect, playable and in a better state yes.

For example, shadps4 dropped support for "just download to play ps4" and you need to correctly extract or have the bins. Then when that is done you still need the updates and dlcs, then you can finally add the patches via shadps4. After that it's a lot like typical fallout/tes where you flip on/off to get the min max for playability.

I'll do one session of 60 mins and decide if this is things to live with VS now I can play it VS in what state.

comparing "film" to games is just, well, ludicrous to me.

film has natural motion blur per frame.
a game is a pure static image per frame - artificial motion blur doesnt fix this
you also provide ZERO input into film, so there is no "lag"

24fps film DOES look better than 30fps gaming 🤷‍♂️


TO ME, 30fps is unplayable - if you enjoy it, awesome

Nice Google :)

Just how is it unplayable? Can you not see anything? Is it so blurry and jagged you cannot shoot enemies?

Why dont you show us an approximation of what you see, so we can get to the bottom of the mystery....or hysteria :)

So, @_kabal_ , I'm guessing you are a PC gamer? And that is why you are making these comments? As you couldn't play any previous gen consoles (or even current ones) due to their "unplayable" frame-rates?

Think I need to be in the mood for psycho thriller pacing to play...and seems I have lost it as an old man.

Helldivers 2 is scratching the itch, again :)

Fair enough. Sometimes you just need to be in the right frame of mind

I still have Control that I need to play, just waiting for the right time

I may try this at a later stage again but the whole fbi female boss thing didn't work for me. Maybe it does when I retry...

Among my all time favourite video games. Just....wow.

I've heard it's really good but great gameplay.

I picked it up on sale dirt cheap. I'll probably kick myself for not playing it sooner when i do get to it

I’m honored that you are so concerned about my gaming experience. MyBB bros for life 🙏

And no, I play 95% on PS5

When I had a PS1 and PS2 I also had a CRT TV.

Then I played on mostly on PC until this generation.

Since i have had Series-X and then PS5/Pro, I’ve played on OLED

I think 30FPS is garbage on OLED.
You think it’s fine/great.

Now what? 🤷‍♂️

How do you play if the games are unplayable?
 
_kabal_ said:
:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

this question is nonsensical - every game I play on PS5 is 60fps 🤦‍♂️

why are you so concerned? is everything alright at home?
Click to expand...

Oh, so you never, ever played games at 30fps? And my only concern is this 30fps is unplayable nonsense :)
 
Hmmm... what game am I playing right now?

Let's see:

1. God of War Ragnarok - PS5
2. Death Stranding - PS5
3. Rayman Legends - XB1
4. Assassins Creed Revelations - XB1
and more downloading currently on XB1.

:X3: :X3: :X3: :ROFL:
Despite playing 1 & 2 since last week I also had my XB1 fixed this week and thought why the heck not install some games I never managed to play back then that I own and give them a try... to test the machine.... and here we are. Game-ho.

IDK, we played ps1 and 2 games without ever noticing it.
It is not 30fps due to struggling so you don't get the jerks associated with a struggling GPU.

Rayman Legends is awesome, there's a few of the bonus levels you unlock where you need to jump to the rhythm of a rock song while fire chases you.. Such fun.

Played it last night on a 24 inch monitor and the graphics looks wonderfull still. *

My kids used to play the game years back... that song was Black Betty right? Awesome level that.

*Edit: Googled it now. I see it runs at 1080/60fps on the 360. Pure eye-candy.
