VinWarrior Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 Hello everyone, I'm LEGENDARY ENGRAM, and welcome to the Weekly News Wrap-Up. I just want to let everyone know next week I'm taking an extremely important set of tests that will help determine what High School I end up in, and another advanced test a few weeks later, so do wish me luck! Anyway, let's get down to our spooky set of articles. This is gonna be a bit weird as two articles are on the same game, but keep reading and you'll understand. Sunset Overdrive Gets Exclusive Content for Day One, Season Pass, and Pre-Orders! Sunset Overdrive looks to be Insomniac Games' next big hit, with explosive action, hilarious humour, and crisp visuals. GameInformer.com reports if you pre-order, get the day one edition, or get the season pass you'll be one of the elite entitled to more goodies in the game at launch. One such example is pre-ordering on Xbox Live, which will net you Acordes de la Meurte, a guitar with melting candles littered on it, and the Hangover, a prickly spiked dumb-bell bat. Pre-ordering will entitle you to two weapons and a costume of the game's mascot. There are others exclusive to certain retailers, but the Season Pass also has a few interesting additions. Purchasing will grant you access to six outfits, two weapon modifiers, and two traps. Are you angered these bonuses aren't in the game even though they're already made? Let me know below! Dragon Age: Inquisition PC Specs Revealed Dragon Age: Origins held some promise, which was quickly squashed away by it's successor, Dragon Age II, and will hopefully be somewhat restored in the third, Dragon Age: Inquisition. IGN.com uploaded the game's PC specs if you're looking to buy the game on it's best looking and running platform. You'll need a minimum of Windows 7 or 8.1, and a recommended at the same level. There is an 8 GB of system memory recommended label, but 4GB is fine if you want a minimal experience. 512 MB Graphical Memory is the minimum for the game, but in a massive jump, 3 GB memory is recommended. Hard Drive space is the same for both, 26 GB. Graphics and CPU of course range, but it's recommended you have a more up to date one like an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660. Are you purchasing the game on PC or console, if at all? Debate below! Dragon Age: Inquisition 900p on Xbox One, 1080p on PS4 Another interesting piece of news on Inquisition, the game's developers revealed that the game will run lower on the Xbox One than on the PS4. GameSpot.com has the story, where they report that the PS4 version will run at a full 1080p, and the Xbox One version at only 900p. Bioware had this to say, "We maximized the current potential of each platform." basically meaning currently that's all they can push out of both systems. Inquisition isn't the only game to be skimped on the Xbox One, games like Assassin's Creed Unity and Sunset Overdrive have been graphically cut because of a lack of good hardware. Is only 900p fine with you, or do you expect more from next gen? Discuss below! Welp, that's all for this week, I'm Legendary Engram, signing out!

Buns Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 I expect 4k from Current-Gen. Stupid PS4 such a low res. You're not demanding a high enough resolution. I expect nothing but 64k from PS4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrhuntington Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 (edited) You're not demanding a high enough resolution. I expect nothing but 64k from PS4. We've gone from 64 bit to 64K in 16 years? HUMAN ACHIEVMENT! Edited October 11, 2014 by The Ghost of rrhuntington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor Kenway Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 NIce Article, vin! I hope it might come on Xbox. xD Did you even read the article? Once again another WNW and as always nice articlé Edwardo it's sad that the current gen hardware isn't as good as we all thought it would be and so games are getting held back graphically 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboose The Ace Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 and this is what I am afraid of. I mean these are supposed to be "next gen consoles" cutting edge hardware. But yet these next gen consoles especially the Xb1 that according to Ms is supposed to last a decade. Downright struggle to even get 1080p with the Xb1 getting 900p or even 782p. They cant even handle 4K! I don't see these things being around for another four years because their hardware just wont be able to last that one. Its already happening now they cannot even handle 1080p. If its already happening now how can they last another four years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guts Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 I sort of agree with Caboose. I think it is strange that the consoles will not be able to achieve full HD. I disagree however with the fact that they will last for "four years". The consoles are well made and developers will not push the consoles to breaking point. Although I was surprised that those games received a graphics cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboose The Ace Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 ^ These consoles downright cannot handle 4k and struggle with pushing native 1080p. Do you really think in the next four years these consoles will be able to keep up? They are struggling right now! Soon devs will start having to limit stuff on next gen versions. Then we go back to the horrors of the end of the 7th gen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
