If you expected to read a full (or even partial) review of Final Fantasy XV on Gamersyde, you're in for a big surprise. Indeed, Square-Enix did not consider us worthy of giving you our opinion about the game, so that's why we we were only sent a code today. Thankfully, one of our contacts at a local retailer was kind enough to lend us a PS4 copy last Wednesday, and we have been working hard at preparing a fair amount of videos ever since. Inside, you will find footage from the PS4 version (4k and 1080p) and the base PS4 one, along with a few FPS Analysis videos. We hope you'll be able to do without a full review, especially since the real professionals have their own up by now, which we advise you to check out. When it comes to true HQ videos though, no one can compete with us just yet. Enjoy!
Unless mentioned, all the PS4 Pro videos were captured in Lite mode as the framerate is a lot smoother (though limited to 30 fps for now). The High mode is clealrly crisper, but the frame pacing issues are quite annoying. the same goes with the base PS4 version, which looks on par with the Lite mode on Pro, but suffers from frame pacing issues and occasional slowdowns in combat. Our FPS Analysis videos were either recorded in 4K and resized in 1080p (it was the case for our High Mode FPS videos), or captured at 1080p while the game was playing at 4K, our card having downsampled the game on Amarec.

Commented on 2016-11-28 23:56:01while FFXIII didn't impact as high compared to the other FF games, i actually thought it was a pretty good game by it's self. I'm still playing it on steam actually. it had lots of different characters. insane combat difficulty too.

Commented on 2016-11-29 11:51:51 In reply to TizI keep hearing this and i realize that, yet we did have Witcher 3 in 900p looking SO much more crystal clear than FFXV. We have many 720p or slightly higher games on Xbox One but never do they have this soft/blurry look. Maybe it's the AA solution causing it.
The only thing to get really is that the XB1 has the weaker hardware and what you're seeing is the difference in what Square could wrestle out of each machine. :)
