Sony Working Hard To Ensure PS4 Games Run At 60FPS/1080p

The console can handle it, so why not? According to a developer working on PlayStation 4, Sony is “actively” pushing studios to ascertain that PS4 Games run at 60 frames per second (FPS) and render 1080p visuals. In a discussion with Eurogamer about the difference between PS4 and Xbox One, Stewart Gilray, who is working on a secret PS4 game at Just Add Water, said: We might see slightly smoother framerates on PS4. We’re working with Sony right now, and they’re trying to actively push 60 frames per second, 1080p. You might get situations where the graphics will be a little, but not much, lower quality on the Xbox One. Or, you might get some fixed at 30 frames per second situations in 1080p. It depends on the scale of the game. If your game is going to push the heck out of the PS4, you might have to do some little tweaks [for the Xbox One version]. But if you design your game to work on Xbox One at 60, it’s going to work on PS4 at 60. This difference in performance is possible because of PS4′s 8GB of GDDR5 RAM compared to Xbox One’s slower and less efficient 8GB of GDDR3 RAM. Furthermore, Microsoft has reserved 3 out of the 8GBs for OS and multimedia features, while Sony managed to hedge the system memory away from the game memory, meaning the entirety of PS4′s 8GB of GDDR5 RAM will be available for game-development. A stunning development. ...

Developed by a brand new team, Need For Speed Rivals is currently being worked on by the publisher's newest studio Ghost Games and built on the Frostbite 3 game engine.

Taking on the role of either a cop or a racer, Need For Speed Rivals delivers high stakes challenges, rewards and consequences.

Xbox One & PS4 can grow games market by 30%, predicts Microsoft

Microsoft Europe’s VP of interactive entertainment Chris Lewis has predicted that the next wave of consoles can help the industry grow by 30% moving forward, and that while gamers seem to have enjoyed the length of the current generation, it is time to move on. Speaking with GI.biz , Lewis said, “This generation 7 that we’re in right now, it’s 50 per cent bigger than generation 6 and I think double the size of generation 5. Our anticipation is that generation 8 will be at least 30 per cent bigger still”. Shedding light on the length of the current generation – which has seen many commentators and gamers asking if it’s been too long – Lewis added, “There is a strong trajectory there. I think people liked the length of the generation. “Our partners certainly did. Retail loved the length of the generation, at least in terms of the attach and the additional services and content they can attach. Our developers like the longevity of the platform because they get better at bringing and optimising content for that platform.” That said, Lewis stressed that it’s not yet curtains for Xbox 360, which will continue for a few years yet, “Xbox 360 will continue for another multiple-year time frame. We’ve already got meaningful marketing plans for the next 12 months for Xbox 360 and beyond. Our third-party publishers will bring more content to it, because the installed base is so high”. So that’s effectively the end of first-party Microsoft game ...

PS4′s ‘Answer to the Pre-Owned Games Question’ is Still Just as Unclear as Xbox One’s

We’ve all seen a lot of flak hurled at Microsoft for its lack of a satisfying answer to the question of used Games and DRM even for disc-based Games. Even I’ve decided that the fact that Microsoft has to actually work out a policy for such things is a strong indication that they’re taking an anti-consumer approach . Frankly, trading and buying used Games shouldn’t require any kind of “solution.” It should be possible and practical by default because they’re based on physical freaking media that can serve as its own DRM if companies are really concerned about people simply installing and giving their discs away. Why does it have to be any more complicated than “if you want to play media installed from the disc, you need the disc”? Microsoft isn’t alone in being horrendously vague and unclear about the “solution” to pre-owned Games – implying of course that pre-owned Games are a problem that has to be “solved.” Sony’s contributed its fair share of non-answers to the discussion as well. Just following the PlayStation 2013 meeting, NowGamer specifically asked PlayStation UK Managing Director Fergal Gara about PS4′s policy concerning pre-owned Games : Well first of all, we haven’t stated that second-hand Games…we haven’t made a statement on the second-hand Games question. There was a lot of reaction to a patent that was filed, which is a matter of course for a technology business like us, to file various patents at various times, many ...

We expect to see the same thing with this transition for PS4 and Xbox One. Trade-ins allow for a seamless transition.” From what we have pieced together , once installed an Xbox One game is locked to your Xbox Live account and this is verified every twenty four hours. If the game is installed somewhere else, on another Live account, then the second player has to pay for the game. That would mean if you bought the game from GameStop you would pay for it at the till and then again on Xbox Live, which can’t be right. It looks like Microsoft really needs to clarify the situation quickly, before it gets any worse. ...

EA is Making Wii U Games, Just Not as Many as for the Xbox One and PS4

EA is still making Wii U Games, according to the company’s CFO Blake Jorgensen. His statement counters that of spokesperson Jeff Brown who claimed that EA is no longer developing Games for the latest Nintendo console . Jorgensen made his comment during that Stifel Nicolaus 2013 Internet, Media and Communications Conference, stating that while EA still will support the Wii U, they just will be developing for the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 more. “You know, I think Nintendo’s business was more [an] extension of their last console…We are building titles for the Nintendo console, but not anywhere near as many as we are for PS or Xbox… …I think what the consumer will find is a lot more powerful gameplay with the new boxes that are coming out, and a lot of excitement, but it’ll remain to be seen as to the services associated with those as to how consumers decide which direction they might want to go.” EA stirred the pot earlier this month when it said it would not be bringing the Frostbite 3 graphic engine or Madden 25 to the Wii U. Seeing as the CFO is one of the higher ranking members of the company, I think his word can be taken more seriously than a spokesperson’s. EA would not abandon the Wii U market if there was money to be made there, and despite its slow sales, an audience still does exist. ...
