The Old PlayStation Thread | *NEW THREAD IS UP*

...lol at dudes in the Ps4 thread talking bout they not getting it till a year from now. So come back to this thread in a year.
I'm waiting until MGS V drops to upgrade to the next gen, i guess i'm not allowed to be in this thread because im not getting it at launch... Sorry guys, i'll get out of your way

also since im not getting it at launch, you guys think im poor.

i have a ps4 pre ordered for launch day and i will get it, but i might just sell it and cop one around february. the ps3 still has great titles coming out like gtav, ratchet and clank, kingdom hearts 1.5, ffxiii lightning returns, ffx/x-2
 
About how long do ya'll think it will take for more consoles to be released after all the rd consoles sell out ? 
 
2 months tops, most of the resale comes becuase its sold out when christmas comes around. Which makes ppl want it even more by the time they restock.

I have a rd console, but i've been thinking about waiting to see the full breakdowns of both consoles once people get them, and can share everything about both..

You're not making sense.

You've implied that the ps3 will be obsolete when the ps4 comes out.

Yet, one of the best games to hit the ps3 is about to come out.

If you're not buying a rd console nor spending $60+ for all the exclusives, you are poor.
 
Preordered two. One to keep and one to resell around Xmas. Might even resell both depending on stock because I'm not feeling the launch titles. GTAV will hold me down for months, as well as the upcoming NBA season. The only game I really want to play is the new Infamous.

This right here. :pimp:

PS4 has huMA, Xbox One doesn't, 3D performance way better apparently


According to a German I.T magazine, it means that the 3D performance of the PS4 is way ahead of Xbox One. The news was sourced from AMD's Senior Product Marketing Manager Marc Diana.

We’re not particularly technical at PSU but we know a guy who is...

Explaining what hUMA means for PS4, DoesUS says:



"On a classical system you have a RAM pool and a VRAM pool that are physically separated. Copying data from one pool to the other creates latency. The GPU is very good ad hiding latency. What it needs most is high bandwidth. The CPU on the other hand is extremely sensitive to latency. The CPU needs extremely low latency to work efficiently. Copying data from the RAM (CPU) to the VRAM (GPU) creates latency, but that's okay for the GPU. Copying data from RAM (CPU) to VRAM (GPU) and back to the RAM (CPU) creates even more latency. It's too much for the CPU. The copying alone takes longer than the computation wich makes this roundtrip highly ineffective.

Xbox360 and older APUs have a unified RAM. This means that the RAM is no longer physically separated, but even though it's the same RAM chips, the system still distinct between memory partition for the different processors. You still need to copy the data between CPU partition and GPU partition, but this will be much more efficient than copying it between physically separated pools. But it's still too much latency for a CPU, GPU, CPU roundtrip.

PS4 will have hUMA wich means that you no longer need a distinction between CPU partition and GPU partition. Both processors can use the same pieces of data at the same time. You don't need to copy stuff and this allows for completely new algorithms that utilize CPU and GPU at the same time. This is interesting since a GPU is very strong, but extremely dumb. A CPU is extremely smart, but very weak. Since you can utilize both processors at the same time for a single task you have a system that is extremely smart and extremely strong at the same time.

It will allow for an extreme boost for many, many algorithms and parts of algorithms. On top of that it will allow for completely new classes of algorithms. This is a game changer.”

I think that 3d is a huge gimmick.

If I want a headache, I'll just spin in my chair for 30 sec.

They don't mean that type of 3D

They mean games that are not on a flat plane
If they mean 3d that enhances gameplay, then I don't think it's a gimmick.
If they're talking about assassin's creed/uncharted 3d, they can kick rocks.
 
Xbox Ones games ballin outta control right now at Gamescon

All I'm hearing bout PS4 games is "Well Knack looks better" :smokin :lol:
