If you could choose between 720p60 or 1080p30?

Okay, who added that comedy last option there? It's hilarious...even more so that someone actually voted for it.

"Yup, I DO like to play games on a screen size of 1 pixel that refreshes every second. Unlike you bastards with your fancy-schmancy "graphics", I can keep playing on my 10-year old digital watch FOR WELL OVER A YEAR without running out of battery power."

Last gen should be able to handle every game at 1080p 60fps no problem, and no excuses. Current gen should have no problem handling 4K at 60fps, given their price and MUCH beefier hardware. But they don't. I don't know if it's just developer laziness with optimization or what, but the current gen still struggles to hit 60 fps at 1080p, and that's not only sad, it's unacceptable. Especially since a gaming PC can do it with shittier specs no problem.

What are you talking about??? Last gen handle 1080p/60fps? Are you having a laugh? And this gen, the PS4 and XBOX one cost peanuts to make and are cheap at launch. WTF are you expecting? A £600-£800 PC can handle 1080p/60FPS. You're paying half that for your PS4.

And the hardware is hardly that beefy in technical terms.

Some games will make 1080p/60fps but big sacrifices will need to be made with some talented developers (e.g. Nintendo springs to mind, cartoony or more simple graphics with more vibrant colors >>> detail and individual textures).

I completed TLOU on 30fps and it was clunky as hell. I loved the shit out of the game regardless.

However once the PS4 library expands to a minimum of 10 exclusives I want (or KH3 drops), I will be buying it and putting TLOU in ASAP.

720p / 60fps

 

[migles]

is the last option on the poll, 1 pixel resolution at 1 frame per second rate? XD

 

[zoogie]

I demand 500fps and 8K. Neogaf told me anything less is last gen.

Or just give me a good game for god's sake rather than budgeting game dev targeting specific numbers: fps, res, metacritic etc.

I added it lol and now 2 people voted for it.

Btw I voted for 720p60.

i wonder what is the ratio? is that 4:3 16:9 ? is that 1pixel widescreen?

Yes, that 1 pixel is 16:9.

This was a really tough decision. Since my tv is full hd, using 720p equals pixel distortion, but playing at 30fps although acceptable is a very noticeable downgrade from 60fps.
No one should be forced to make that kind of decision

I say slightly less impressive graphics + 1080p60
Seriously gaming companies, I don't need to see every last detail until the nose hair if it's going to sacrifice resolution and/or fps....

 

[filfat]

All depends on the content. 60fps for games, 30fps for movies, and 15fps for maybe anime?

Anime isn't that like kid shows?

You've never heard of Anime?.. it's like Japanese cartoons.

I've heard about, just never understood the targeted audience.

Watch Death Note. Seriously, it's a very good anime and even my mom which doesn't watch animes enjoyed it very much.

there are tons of anime destined for adults, and they usually are

 

[emigre]

All I want is a consistent framerate whether it be 30/60fps. Games which fluctuate with framerate are an actual pain to play.

 

[Taleweaver]

Damnit...I wanted to say this.

But it's worth repeating: anime doesn't have a single audience; it depends on the genre. It can go from things perfectly fit for children (Chobits) all the way to lolita tentacle-raping someone into sex slavery (song of Saya...and no, I'm not making this up).
+1 on death note, by the way...in case my avatar doesn't already give it away.

I picked 1080p30Hz. Because it really depends on what games I play. A pretty pixel perfect game, with not a lot of motion is perfect. But then again, to play action games @ 60Hz is wonderful.

 

[shakirmoledina]

i've always loved 1080p and to see 30 FPS is quite perfect for regular action games.

As cyan (perfectly) describes it, most games that I play work excellently at 30 FPS that dont require much speed.

However playing football or far cry 4 requires the best speed possible

 

[GammaGeorgeX]

At least for my resources best fit, 720p with 60 fps
