The thing I loved about the original 2010 game (and Hot Pursuit 2 before it) was that they had that Outrun vibe where you're racing cool cars through beautiful landscapes, something missing from a lot of racing games and I'm glad it was mentioned here.

[@zef9151]

I can conclusively agree with others that the Xbox performance issue was fixed-tested it using the LG OLED VRR info box in both Career and Freeplay, at both 60 and 120 Hz output, and with VRR on and off. No matter what the game never drops frame rate now in that coastal region.

This game is pure arcade fun driving cool cars in a beautiful scenery and drifting at 200kph+ in tight corners. Such a blast and it reminds me of Outrun SP2 on PS3 indeed, which by the way was already running at 1080p back in the day. Other NFS games don't have that simple gameplay where you just grab a car and race at high speed and drift like a maniac through the bends. This Remastered version at 60fps and great AA/AF is amazing and all I want from an arcade racing game. It is in fact so good that cars have gained in handling (low input latency at 60fps) and I'm having no issues easily beating my old PS3 time records. This is my favourite NFS ever for what I value in an arcade racer. No grind, storyline, missions, speedlist, speed points, hiding etc. Simple, to the point. I just want to race at high speed and ideally not in cramped urban areas.

[@birdman4birdlegs]

I had a 750ti (rather an 860m) that run this game at 1080p 60fps back in 2014 easily. I really struggle to believe that the "remaster" was so intensive that the original xbox one and ps4 couldn't handle this at 60 as well.

I’m glad they mentioned this here for the series x because the same applies for the ps5. BC games depend a lot on the old code base, which is why ps5 performs worse with division 2 and ghost recon. Nothing to do with the console as we can clearly see on newly developed game: outriders, Valhalla, fenix risings it always performs well. Hitman 3 probably has a code base issue on the ps5 as it looks a lot like a rehash of hitman 1-2, similar assets.

[@jayevans20]

False. The console depending on its design, can make an old or new game look good. See the series X. The games you mentioned either play best on the X or they're matching the PS. The PS is fine but I expect the gap to widening as time progresses.

[@maxminy5634]

@@jayevans20 I don’t agree, but we’ll see. Pretty much every new game has been only a marginal difference when enough development time has gone into it. The BC games like division are based on old code base and engines, so I expect those will be the larger anomalies. I expect the series x to have 15 percent gap in future games, but even that does not seem to be consistent throughout the game. The only exception was hitman 3 so far. Let’s see if it continues.

The back compat on xbox is clearly very accurate. Which is normally awesome but to fix it means they would have to go back to patch the OG version. My guess is they won't bother. Should've just moved SDK. Unlocked frame rate on last gen is not worth it.

Considering that the One X ran the game at mostly stable (minus the problem area) 4K60 on maximum, the Series X should be able to run it at 4K120 in the maximum setting.

creating an overclocked ps4 isn't genius. any new console with new features has teething issues. ps3, xbox 360 and even ps4 had issues. xbox series x having teething issues is proof it's a true next gen console with new features devs have to get accustomed to. ps5 uses the same devkit as the ps4 confirmed by devs. nothing special. it's already hitting max potential.

[@supermadkid]

@@madmax2069 it's literally 36 cu like a ps4 pro but rdna. outside of minor IPC gains from GCN -> RDNA the most gains right now are from clockspeed in last gen/cross gen games. we already know ps5 is lacking major next gen features even that nvidia had way back in 2018 with turing architecture like variable rate shading and mesh shaders. devs need to leverage these technologies to get the best out of xbox and rdna 2/ampere on pc. devs can never leverage them on ps5 because it flat out doesn't support them. that's why people are saying ps5 is rdna 1.5.
