Dear God,

I hope they sack this “journalist” quickly.

    I was looking up and down for any explanation as to why 4k is different from 2160p. Shows that this one has no clue what they’re talking about.

      I’ve found this. Personally I would not say the difference is worth having another name, maybe for the sake of differentiating between the ratios.

      But it seems that indeed 4K is not 2160p 🤷

    Lol. on the PS4 Pro or PS5, Red Dead Redemption can even achieve 4K resolution. In contrast, the game runs at 2160p on Series X.

    Just saw the Digital Foundry review, it’s sad that Rockstar didn’t even bother to upgrade the UI elements. almost every UI asset runs on 720p

      Damn

      The fact it’s STILL 30fps is “hard pass” territory from me on its own but like. Wow. Lazy

        Probably because they didn’t want to rewrite the physics that are based on 30fps max. Lazy port.

          They didn’t need to. The Xbox 360 version can run at 60 FPS in an emulator with a really simple patch

    This thread reminds me of that time on the bodybuilding forum when they argued about how many days there are in a week.
