Is it really? That's a damn shame. I'll get a PS4 for it anyway. Not likely to be emulated any time soon.

They pulled the whole "we put nexus at 30 fps to put more visual detail" thing but it ended up being an aliased, stuttery mess that didn't look any better than ACIT. This one is actually pulling off 30 fps pretty well.

>caring about framerate
do you even game anon?
>>
>>321953447
I think I've heard that it'll be a solid 60?
>>321953989
PS4 deserves 60FPS Ratchet games... I mean... Even Naughty Dog tried so hard to run the new Uncharted on 60FPS.
>>
>>321954129
Yes, I do, and hence care about framerate. 60Hz with low response times is nice, 144Hz is better, you're far into diminishing returns at that point, but you can distinguish locked 144 from locked 60. If you don't find low framerates (especially with dips) distracting you have a far greater tolerance than myself.
>>
>>321954849
dude the pc meme burned your brain
play games not performance
stop being psychotic about useless features and memes
>>
>>321955009
framerate directly effects gameplay, don't be an idiot.
>>
>>321955009
Go play Blighttown on PS3, and then at locked 60 on PC, and tell me that the PC experience is no better. I have no interest in fighting the performance.

Anyway, I started with PC gaming, when I first played console games I was shocked at the poor fidelity.
>>
>>321955236
i played blight town
It was slower but playable
also one part of a game was shit performance not all the game
suck it
>>
Guys... pl0x...
>>
>>321955217
it does wehn its 15 fps not 30 or even 25
>>
30FPS is acceptable, but why not 60?
Also 8MP sensor was acceptable for 5 years on iPhones. Think like that.
>>
>>321955341
The whole game performance was abominable, and why would I want bad performance at any point? Throughout the game performance was poor, and 60fps vs 30fps is incredibly noticeable, purely in terms of perceived input latency.

A large part of this (when considering consoles) is the variance in frametimes, a completely constant framerate, even if low, is far better than a fluctuating one.

Even considering absolutes, 60fps vs 30fps is noticeable, and affects gameplay. If you can't notice that, you don't play competitive games. I must admit, I don't mind what the framerate is from CRPGs and the like.
>>
>>321954849
>>321955236

> tfw didn't even really notice the framerate in Blighttown on ps3

It just doesn't really bother me unless it's so bad the animations start to look like there skipping bits.

Feels good to be a pleb, I'd hate not to enjoy an otherwise amazing game because of framerate issues.

I know a lot of people who, traditionally, have been console gamers that find this. As someone who started with PC games, and then got into a mixture of FPS', RTS', and MMOs in the mid '90s, I come from 90Hz CRTs.

My son asked for a PS2 when they came out, and that's where I started playing R&C, even then the framerate really bugged me. I also find it bugs me on TV, it looks so blurry.

Uh, 3?

Or if you meant after the collection, play Tools of Destruction, Quest for Booty, A Crack in Time and Into the Nexus.

Tools and Crack and dirt cheap nowadays, and if you buy Nexus it comes with a free copy of Booty.

There's also a HD port of Deadlocked, which technically goes after 3 and before Tools of Destruction, but the port is questionable at best.
>>
>>321957614
What do you mean "port"?

>>321957475
Yeah, I had a blast playing it on release too, I then enjoyed it a lot more on PC. One does not preclude the other, the PS3 version was just objectively worse.

Ratchet: Deadlocked was a ps2 game.

Many years later they made a HD version of the game for PS3, a combination of the game being very oddly made (to squeeze everything out of the ps2) and incomptant devs doing the remaster led to a pretty lacklustre version of the game.

If you own a ps2, play that version, otherwise buy the HD version, it's issues are mostly in cutscenes. There's framerate issues as well, but they were on ps2 as well.

Unlike Xbox Classic emulation, virtually all PS2 games can be run on PC.

What the fuck did they even do when they made the Xbox classic, cause I still really want to play some games from that console or see them rereleased virtually.

Specifically, pic related.
>>
>>321957998
Blightown was awful throughout, most of the game had performace issues, all of which undermined the quality of the gameplay. The lower graphical fidelity also resulted in a game that looked fairly ugly on the PS3, which affects my enjoyment.
>>
>>321958173
Nah I meant is this port published officially? If then why don't you just said HD edition or something lol.
>>
>>321958076
Nothing.

I was saying I HOPE they release ps4 versions of the games. It would make sense, but considering they barely work on PC ps2 emulation and even proper ports done by dev teams had issues, it may be impossible.

We can dream.
>>
>>321958340
Cause it's not HD. It's literally just them having ported it into the PS3 engine.

Xbox emulation isn't happening. There might be a slim chance for the 360, and current gen should be straighforward due to the similar archirectures, but the xbox is not easily emulatable.

ToD is sub-par for a R&C game, but still good.
Quest for Booty is a download only shit-piece and short as hell.
Crack in Time is the second best in the whole series.
And Nexus is more of a fucking cash grab than an actual R&C game, combining one of the worst parts of R&C 2, grav boots, a shit-tier story, and is short as fuck.
In-case you're wondering, I mean Leviathan hunting, but in a swamp.

CiT had some good puzzle segments, but like the other PS3 ones, it's armory felt underwhelming and uninspired.

It was especially bad in ToD, when you get to their little museum, and they show off some of the cut weapons, and they look way more fun than the mediocre shit they put in.

And then, everything had such a tiny ammo supply that even if you liked a weapon, you couldn't use it for long, or even the duration of sections it was made specifically for because of enemy HP bloat.

Insomniac had nothing to do with the HD versions. They were busy making actual games.

Sony hired C grade studios to port thier Classic ps2 games to PS3.

Sanzaru did a perfect job with Sly Cooper, who did Jak and Daxter did an almost perfect job, Ratchet Trilogy was ok (but not without issues), Deadlocked was abysmal.

Idol Minds havnt done much since....

>>
>>321962128
Exactly. Most console gamers play on TV's which can have response times from 5ms to 10ms. So youre adding anywhere from 45-50ms to your response time. thats an increase of 15-33%. Fucking disgusting that people actually alright with that.

It is exactly the arena sections from the earlier games stretched into a full game.
