About Gamersyde
Gamersyde is a commercial multiplatform web portal based in Europe, with hundreds of thousands of visitors each month from all over the world. We cover both handheld and video games platforms and the site has grown into one of the biggest gaming sites in the continent. We are able to offer fast news delivery and HD content from the upcoming games, and one of the greatest and friendliest gaming communities in the world. The HD content we provide always respects the original resolution and framerate of the games we capture, making Gamersyde the one and only place to get 1080p/4K/60fps videos with high bitrate. At a time when Youtube's subpar video compression has become the norm for most people on the Internet, we refuse to give up quality without a fight. We now also produce HDR videos, which can only be enjoyed by those who own compatible televisions. The content we produce is obviously not free of use should you want to upload our videos on your own website or YouTube channel.

Since 7468 DaysNext gen i think the likes of naughty dog, santa monica, guerrilla, 343 etc will aim for the best they can achieve with no sacrifices to the standard. We'll get 1080p games from them that define the generation in terms of visuals. They'll be running at higher res and will STILL trounce the competition. Then we'll get most developers making all these sacrifices, cutting all these corners. Turning off v-sync, lowing resolution, dropping framerates and STILL not managing to come close. I would honestly rather every game be 1080p, i think it will make a fool of next gen consoles if they aren't. Just like if the current gen remained at 480p. It would have been a joke.
However 720p to 1080p on much stronger consoles? 1080p is nice, but I wouldn't mind in the least. And you are underestimating just what will be possible on these consoles if you think the extra graphical niceties at 720p with consoles this powerful can't and won't be significant. There will be huge differences on what's possible with lighting and shadows alone. More bandwidth will get eaten up at 1080p. There will be serious differences in terms of the quality of AA or AF that's possible, there will especially be gameplay differences in terms of how much they can put on screen or make happen at any one time. It made no sense at all to try and prove this point on the 360 and ps3, because who the hell wants to play 480p on consoles this powerful? However, many developers, it may even be naughty dog themselves, will showcase just what can be done when you aim for 720p. And following some sites that naughty dog devs frequent after the release of Uncharted 2, where they gave fans a huge insight into the development process, releasing all kinds of assets on the game's development for public consumption, many there seemed quite excited about the potential for 720p on next gen machines, but in fairness those were 3D artists/modelers, not necessarily programmers.
Just on the GPU side alone, the next xbox and ps4 will be more truly representative of their advertised flops numbers, because they will be far more efficient than anything on either the 360 or PS3. Some may look at flop count and think, "okay, ps4 gpu is easily 10 times ps3 gpu," but the gap is much bigger than that as the ps3 gpu wasn't even unified shader, nor was it anywhere close to AMD's GCN architecture. PS4 is going to spank ps3, as will 720 spank 360. If most devs are targeting 1080p, then color me surprised, but aside from that it isn't really a big deal. It's about the games.

Since 7468 DaysIt isn''t about the resolution, it's about the engine and the game. We'll revisit this when all the hype dies down and you see a lot of devs not treating 720p as a joke. True next gen games can be in 720p and developers will prove this.

2 years into it and we still getting 720p games? a freaking failure.

Since 7468 DaysI think once we all see the games, we won't be concerned about what resolution they are. Let the devs worry about which resolutions they want to make their games in. Our job is to play the games they slaved over and then criticize them about how lazy they all are without any appreciating for the work they do. ;D

Since 8273 DaysI'll gladly take 1080p over 720p anyday, but it isn't that crucial a difference. I should know I work in video post production and do 3D animation for a living. There is definitely a sweet spot for set size and viewing distance. True for every resoultion 480p up to 4K.

Since 7576 DaysI don't even think I broke 100fps back then anyway. I had a Riva128.
It really has soured me on 30fps.. I don't really consider 30fps "smooth" anymore.

Since 7576 DaysMy last CRT was a 21" Trinitron. Weighed 80 pounds. That's the part I'll never miss.
Since 7468 DaysAnd ManThatYouFear, Microsoft may have been a complete failure in Japan, but their efforts bore fruit as far as game support is concerned, and it's precisely why I think they can now reliably look forward to games like Metal Gear, Final Fantasy, Resident Evil and a whole host of other Japanese releases. A sales failure in Japan, but their ability to get Japanese titles helps sell their console in places like the USA and elsewhere, and let's hope they don't forget this fact. For example, no way I get a 360 as early as I did, if at all, if not for Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey being announced. Halo wouldn't have been a big draw for me either, because, well, I wasn't even an actual fan of those games when the Xbox 360 first released. I hadn't even played Halo CE through by that time.
