What about people who bought Forza already? That seems like something you should announce and not surprise people with.
It also wouldn't make sense for Americans. Let's see how this turns out. Rumour for now, but a very juicy one. Maybe they will let you choose between two titles [which only leaves RYSE as alternative, or?]

IMO it has a higher chance of actually happening than that BF4 patch [1.8 GB] on day one.

Achievements progress is quite nice (each one has different screen/wallpaper), didn't even know it's like that now:






Curious what does the ''play'' button in second screen (play the game or maybe short clip how you are unlocked the achievement - this is too good to be true tho)?

Yes, Xbox One does that. It's a nice feature

EA really does have the best launch software. Shame it's not finished. :D

I'm getting Rivals I think.

I think we have crossed a line, where youtube videos don't do a good looking game justice anymore, because of the horrible compression and lower framerate [no 60fps]. Even the 1080p feed mostly looks horrible compared to the real thing. I realized it with BF4 for PC. Looks almost double as good.

It's also not ideal for games like Killer Instinct with it's millions of particles and fast moving objects. When I filmed KI almost 2 months ago it looked amazing with 50 frames [the max my cam can record] and all the particles were a blurry mess after uploading it to the tube.

Youtube videos haven't looked very good for a long time now, they really should update their streaming engine.

SuperHD like netflix.

Yeah that's been true forever. If anything youtube compression can hide the jaggies and other artifacts.

Combat looks pretty decent in this build of Ryse. It has definately come a long way: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJ1VSyH25Gw&oref=ht...

EDIT Cutscene Vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcKTptHGiaE&oref=h...

Still cant get over just phenomenal the visuals are in the game.

I can't believe it still has no rear guard animation. If a ryse 2 ever becomes a thing, i recon it'll look great in terms of combat fluidity.

Considering Killer Instinct has about 5 characters and no story, 7's and 8's doesn't seem too bad.

If I liked fighters that weren't DOA or Soul Calibur, I'd definitely pick this up when I get my Xbox One, oh wait
there is no reason for me to pick this up, because MS gave it to me free with all characters. Yes!

The devs said the block is available in 1 frame, which I'm guessing was a design decision so you could be more effective/precise with your blocking?

Surely that 1 frame block could have been a rear block animation though (shield over shoulder/ sword over shoulder) there is a reason a game like assassins creed or batman have such fluid combat...they have contextual animations that fit a scenario. If ezio is attacked from behind or the side, he won't turn to face them to block it because it looks messy, he'll block it with his sword and then turn to attack in a single fluid motion. You can actually see each animation loop in ryse. It's very jarring to watch.

I mostly agree. He doesn't do a complete about-face though. He turns sideways, but it's that the animation interrupts the previous one that makes it so jarring, IMO. It seems to be less jarring as the time has gone, lol, probably because I'm getting used to it :)

Regardless, when I played it a couple weeks ago( from the e3 build) it played as such that it seemed to fit- or that maybe I was so focused on the timing and fighting, that I didn't notice..

Yeah.. it makes PC games look like console games and hides console flaws. Agreed :D

Youtube has nothing on GIF. Let's post more of those and talk about "the best graphics ever."

Yeah, the reviews have been really positive, looks like it's the content (or lack of) that's bringing the scores down. Gameplay wise, it sounds great!

Sounds like framerate problems on DR3 are fixed with new patch.

EDGE and GI also confirmed that.

I have to say, it is a bit silly for DF to analysing pre release games, especially when it comes to launch games.

Glad it's sorted though.

Yea some people don't notice frame-rate drop, whats stupid is Capcom giving reviewers games which have bad frame-rate what else are they supposed to say ?

Be interesting to see if DF make a new video, cause I don't trust human eyes to detect frame-rate issues.

This. Theres a difference between some guy saying he didn't notice any framerate drops and a computer actually analysing it. Hopefully they have fixed it though, because the frequent drops to 20 with lows of 16 where pretty damn unacceptable

I do think DF should re-do all these comparisons and analysis when both machines are out and the games have their patches. Between the potential early code of dead rising, and the messed up capture and unpatched version of BF4 without AO on the xbone. They're hardly fair comparisons atm.
