Variable Rate Shading does not drop occluded or off-screen assets from computation to improve performance; however, it does dynamically lower the render detail of pixels displaying elements of the scene that are in the distance or on the periphery to improve performance.
The problem I have with PC games is that most of them don't run well after booting the game. What I mean by that is that too many times that I have booted up a game first I have to do is change graphical settings then restart the game for the changes to take effect it still stutters, change settings again still doesn't run correctly, google search for fixes and too many times it takes several hours to find the right fix and too many time the game is so complicated to fix that it is unbareable to even try. AC: Odyssey, Ghost Recon Wildlands, Watchdogs 2, Watchdogs legion, Red Dead Redemtion 2 and GTA V is just a couple of games that is hard to get running smoothly on PC, console players don't want that problem.
Hi Colt- heard you mention space marine 2 & HDR… here’s a beautiful solution for you “IF” you’re an LG OLED tv user: Click on settings, click on picture, hover remote mouse cursor over “select mode” (but don’t click in that menu), click 1 1 1 3 1 1 1 on the remote, a secret sub-menu will pop up called “HDMI SIGNALLING OVERRIDE.” Scroll down tothe 2nd option row titled “EOTF” (electro optical transfer function) and click the LEFT cursor to shift to HLG option (HYBRID LOG GAMMA)… Congrstulation… space Marine now runs in “pseudo HDR” equivalent (the British format or version of HDR).. From DUBAI with ❤. P.S. don’t forget to turn it back off after logging off game..
@@colteastwood yes sir indeed… simply follow the same steps to reverse… (not recommended to leave image in that format, but I’ve done it in almost all games that do NOT support HDR….. with the exception of a few that look “wrong” when you switch to HLG)..

I don’t care what anyone says, Colt and Magg have GOATED humor. Magg when he used the soundbites to troll that guy who was hating, and colt when he mentioned the ps5 size made me laugh in this episode😂
Enjoyed this mashup with Alex and different perspectives. I switched to PC quite a while ago as I considered it a better long term investment for access to more games. If they were to ever release an Xbox/Steam console, I'd buy one in a heartbeat.
Thanks for not reading my SCs, again, Colt. sent probably two to two and a half hours before the end of the show right when Alex came on. you read many before and many after it (even responding to a pony troll comment instead of someone who's supporting you) that makes three or four times in different shows you've done this to me (you almost got mine out, said my name, but couldn't hit the finish line). i've defending you against the haters as much as i can, and i know you don't need or want me too. but it's getting harder and harder to do this. i don't make a lot of money, that's why i send few SCs and for specific reasons (so you can see and comment on)
@@colteastwood yeah I know the whole Alex thing kinda derailed things a little (sarcasm actually a lot) it’s just disconcerting. Like I said it’s not like this was the first time. I do appreciate the reply back. I’ll still be on next week if not live to watch after. And I apologize for taking it out on you on the chat. Just been a rough few weeks and I’m getting more and more easily aggravated. Maybe I need to cut out the sugar and stuff too. I’m a heavy Mountain Dew drinker as well
I understand how hard it is to keep up with chat and manage the show. For me tho if my supers don't get read then I feel I'm not getting what I pay for, which also happened 2 or 3 times the last times I supered actually lol. Not trying to be negative just giving my honest feedback. I love the show
I traded in my old pc hardware for money, then I upgraded motherboard, psu and gpu. I had a gtx 1080ti and that was good, but I bought the rtx 3080 cheap for $500 on the aftermarket. Well worth it since the gtx 1080ti originally cost me $1100 when it was new.
Couldent care less as a xbox owner lol😂, they can enjoy there time in the spot light if you can call it that its a kids game age 3+ so not my cup of tea but has to be said they need this just like they need xbox games just hope it has long term playability or its going to get stail again real fast, and old games along side remakes aint going to cut it astro is the only new and fun game they have xbox has a stupid amount of new ganes comming lol over hyping the ps paper weight is crazy to me the ps need to get back to there prime before i sit hear caping over one game lol. Xbox #1
@Colteastwood any new info on the next-gen Xbox console? What did u regarding the next-gen Xbox console in this pod cast episode plz let me know cuz I dont have much time atm
I agree. I think it’s also the fact if Xbox gets a good game one of the PS fan base excuse is oh it’s a kiddie game it doesn’t count. But then you could class Astro as a kiddie game 🤷♂️ Double standards and hypocrisy.
I agree if you love games you will play on any system if they have games you like on that system as true gamers will enjoy what ever they use .. also great podcast as always guys great work
I’m mostly playing xbox.. but I got a PS5 to and I freaking Love Astro Bot it’s really amazing and then I am playing Warhammer Space Marine 2 on the box… and it’s really amazing to
Lol, there are no rotating rumbles in Nintendo or PlayStation controllers. Each side of Nintendo and PlayStation controllers have a linear resonant actuator (LRA), that is so responsive you can play haptics waveforms on it, as if it is a speaker - the resolution is that high. The speaker in the middle of the DualSense is nothing to do with the haptics, though game often combine the haptics waveforms with speaker waveforms (unless you're wearing a headset, it which all sound goes that way, just haptics on controller).
Is Astro Bot really that good? (Honest question to those who have played the game) Im thinking of buying the game, but i don't trust many PlayStation game reviews. It looks fun and I'm all for great gameplay but is the game too short, not as good as people are saying?
Its funny seeing the same people saying that Banjo Kazooie needs to stay dead are now the same people gushing over AstroBot. Funny how things change so quickly.......
I wonder if the standard ps5 will be blamed for holding the ps5 pro back this gen when it comes to graphics? like they said the series s held back the gen because it wasnt as powerful, something tells me that agenda has been cancelled now.
There is a way to make a pc hybrid without destroying xbox. They have make a pc at least as powerful as a 4070 build sell it at cost so it will be worth buying instead of an actual pc and then if the user wants to play steam/epic games add gamepass ultimate as requirement and boom. Cheap powerful pc that can play everything and not loosing subs. Whoever doesn't care about gamepass can buy their games from xbox store.
Many hot takes here. I don’t agree that HDR makes games look worse, oversaturate colours. What HDR actually does is giving you way better contrast than the flat colours of SDR and better specular highlights. OhNoItsAlexx is talking out of his but hole. And just because he doesn’t like the other GTA games doesn’t mean they’re bad games, it just means it’s not his cup of tea. But he did have some good points too, it was just a mixed bag.
3:49:24 I was told $599. Well it wasn't Mark Cerny telling you. I've been saying in this chat for a year $700, lo and behold $700 (without the drive) . And as I said more than once, the instant that Sony announced the pro, Gamestop's trade value would drop on the old machine, down to $230 the day of the announcement. 😂
@colteastwood I really enjoyed the off the rails part and when mag came back and dropped his news I was waiting for since the beginning...it was so good you would think it's scripted haha
Watching Alex talking about console vs pc, gta, hdr etc.. he is trying to bring to conclusion the way he wants to, not what they actually are.. He is always like "not reality, but what I want" mode and cannot agree with this.. I like the Magg talks about things better than Alex, because most of the time he talks fair..
I totally agree, that’s why I don’t watch Alex’s content. I can’t take this guy seriously. It’s about what he wants you to believe and what he wants for himself, not about facts.
Xbox is my preferred console, maybe not much longer, that has been playing Astro Bot and loving it. Graphics are great, game play in smooth, and it's just plain fun. To be honest, one of the best games this generation. I don't get why someone has to destroy a game just because it's not on their preferred console. I am also fully completing each world before moving on. I did miss a couple stragglers I am going back and completing before I move forward.
Yeah you missed something or chose to overlook it. Either way, horizon Lego is going to Nintendo. No matter how you see it horizon is a Sony up no matter what form or crossover it takes so yea they're third party. Not to mention they already have games on PC.
@@youreanidiothereswhy but not Xbox consoles ;) Well, Switch definitely isn't strong enough to play the actual Horizon Zero games, so a Lego spin-off is a great idea for Nintendo.
Sony has stated several times about going more on PC and going multi platform. Which people interpret as PC/Nintendo (not Xbox). Sony are putting all their games on PC, PC day and date for single player games is coming next. Then Nintendo and eventually Xbox. If the new Switch isn’t powerful enough for new UE5 games then I suspect Sony will put games on Xbox eventually.
True they aren’t putting anything on Xbox now, but Sony are never the first to do anything they wait for Xbox first and then copy (to avoid risk). If the Switch2 isn’t powerful enough for Sonys games or new UE5 games I expect they will put games on Xbox eventually. But always behind Xbox in terms of how many etc.
Alex is delusional. How could the pro be 500 when the current model is the same price? And so is Xbox...? By his logic current machines should be priced at 300.
As tech ages it gets cheaper. The new systems will use tech that's about 7 years old. Gonna have a 2070-2080 super and they have 4090s out for top end computers.
I dont even own an Xbox, but i this is my favourite podcast!!
