Fake image by poster

I saw some posts going around that claimed to be in-game screenshots of DLSS 5. I thought they looked suspiciously fake and I couldn't find any videos online that showed gameplay of the games with DLSS 5, so i decided to try DLSS 5 on High-FI Rush myself. the top 4 four images are what i captured on my PC with each of the DLSS 5 presets. compared to the bottom image where you can see the protagonists face looks completely different.

I'm not saying anyone has to like DLSS 5 but if we're going to criticize the technology we should at least be fair in doing so and not form an opinion based on fake still images posted by users online.

Discussion / Question What do you all think is the most washed gaming franchise?

28 Upvotes

For me, it's Halo by far. The campaign evolved remake was the final sign that this franchise is just devoid of any creativity, quality, and vision. It's just a husk of its former self, and with no game for the next few years, there's no mp to play for nearly a decade post Halo Infinite. It's sad how far it fell.

Why are so many video games based on anime, Adult Swim, and animation poorly made with bad graphics and bad gamplay?

I don't know why don't franchises creators hire studios who makes high quality games to create games for their franchises

why?

Discussion / Question DLSS 5 is terrible, but people are hating it for the wrong reasons.

Edit: for all the morons who think I'm PRO-AI, I'M NOT.

This is for the people with cavemen like mentality who say "AI = BAD".

Yes, I'm against DLSS 5, but people are blindly hating it for the wrong reasons and calling it "slop" which does nothing but satisfy their own ego. There's two problems with DLSS 5. The performance loss just isn't worth it. The cons outweigh the pros massively. Secondly, DLSS 5 is gonna make a lot of game devs like Ubisoft and EA, and maybe even indie devs lazy by making DLSS5 a norm and almost completely abandoning artstyles (which is already on the verge of dying) in games. We've reached to the point where graphics don't need to be realistic, they need to be stylized and unique. I just want all the blind AI haters to think rationally and not just blindly hate on something.

This is something i wanted to talk about so, feel free to speak up your mind, or keep on blinding hating, fyi i DO hate DLSS 5 but for the right reasons.

EDIT: I think a lot of people are misunderstanding my point. I am NOT defending DLSS 5. I am AGAINST DLSS 5 too. I think the performance cost isn't worth the visual improvement, and I'm concerned about what the widespread AI-based rendering could do to game development and artistic direction of all the upcoming games. My point is that “AI = bad” or “it's slop” isn't an argument by itself. If you hate DLSS 5, hate it for actual reasons. Criticize its performance, visual artifacts, latency, potential impact on developers, art direction, etc. Don't blindly repeat “AI bad” simply because everyone else is saying it. I'm not arguing against you. I'm arguing that we should have better reasons for reaching the same conclusion.

Hello,

I guess we get what Nintendo will never provider.

This is using a capture card to the PC from the Switch 2, using DLSS 5 Feeder and Alex Toolkit 1 Extreme pass, Default preset.

Stable 60 FPS on an RTX 5090, and with the motion vectors of Reshade, it's great in motion.

EDIT: first 2 images are Before / After, and the rest After / Before

Discussion / Question What are some games that every gamer should play at least once in their lifetime?

3 Upvotes

I started gaming pretty late in my life because we were poor as hell when I was a child and I never had anything. My first console was a PS4 slim that I got in 2021 to play The Last Of Us on and since then I've mostly played other story driven games that I liked and recently drifted over to indie games because I enjoy them more.

When I talk about games with other people and tell them I play lots of games, they usually ask me about games that I've only heard of but never played. They're usually "older" games and I struggle to keep the conversation going with "Oh yeah I've heard of that but never played".

I currently have access to a PS1, PS3, PS4 Slim, PS5 base edition, a gaming laptop running windows, a Steam Deck running SteamOS, a Nintendo 3DSXL, a Wii U (i think?) and I guess emulation through my SD and I wan't to play games that everyone should have played at least once in their lives.

Can you guys recommend me games that had a big impact on gaming and/or are simply iconic in some way that I should play and tell me why you're recommending it?

Discussion / Question Question specificity about the GTA 6 reveal.

0 Upvotes

Based just on what RS recently released, are you more exited about GTA 6? Or less, or even just not interested.

I’ll go first. Id say im less excited. I’ve only ever dabbled in the franchise but love all sorts of games and am always up for trying out something new. My main gripe is that Jason seemed like he had no personality. He just came off sort of flat. Kinda concerning since these games are so story driven. Maybe they are just holding back? Hopefully more is released before the game launches.

Is there a game that you want to love but has too many problems? Or a game you dislike greatly but unmistakable redeeming qualities? So you can't bring yourself to love them nor hate them, meaning they're stuck in a purgatory? Let us know.

Discussion / Question Fun question: What’s the “Knuckles Oh No” equivalent in your fandom?

3 Upvotes

This means there’s a voice clip during gameplay or battles that is constantly repeated by an enemy, like almost every other second.

This is in reference to Sonic Adventure 1, where during boss fights against Knuckles he would shout “oh no” every time he got hit.

Discussion / Question The Best Kept Marketing Secret of GTA VI.

0 Upvotes

I think the biggest surprise of GTA VI is going to be the reveal of Online 2P Story Mode Co-Op. Hear me out.

GTA SA had it, iirc as a free-roam feature. Rudimentary and Limited but implemented nonetheless. I do not think it has been done since. We know how R\* works. They flesh out these years old mechanics and implement in future games where it narratively makes sense. GTA VI seems like the culmination of over 2 decades of work. This is the perfect opportunity for such a mechanic to really work.

• Several areas in the Extended Look were cut where there was no need to, if it is just single player.
• Forbes has released a report saying, ‘GTAVI Online’ is not expected for 1-2 years.
• Rockstar themselves have also said that in this game they have focused more on variety and replayability.
• The Relationship and Crime Report Mechanics.
• Their core audience(the ones who were there since the beginning )are now 30 years+ and this might be their last GTA for a while (blame adulting)
• The World of Leonida has become more grounded. You cannot move around the city like a god, they said.

Instead of causing chaos in the city, 2 player campaign and open world will provide the opportunity to bring that chaos to the living room. Now, tell me that doesn’t sound like GTA.

•Throw in Cross-Platform player matching

Local Co-Op at this scale, is difficult. But Online, ooh i can see so many possibilities.

What are your thoughts ?

First photo is on the website the photo with the green case is what I got . The product picture looks almost new it’s like very vibrant . Compared to how I got it , it’s looks faded and has some weird cloudy stuff in the middle . They said they use a professional disk cleaner and that it would come off with a wet towel. It did not. Unfortunately right now I don’t have an Xbox to see if it works. I’m kinda stuck because if it worked fine i wouldn’t care about the appearance
