F1 2016: PS4 vs Xbox One Gameplay Frame-Rate Test

The EGO 3.0 engine is let loose in Formula 2016 - a racing sim with a target 60fps on console. Dave covers the performance advantage on PS4 overall, where neither it or Xbox One can consistently hold at this top refresh.

I see Pastor Maldonado has found a new job at Digital Foundry. Wondered what he was up to.

[Timo..]

Did you guys hire a blind guy to play the game?

[augamr]

They need a few lessons from the Forza team

[JackStillAlive]

How is endless screentearing and inconsistent 50-40fps counts as "very much playable"??

[directioneatsshit]

all of us Americans and Canadians are trying to sleep

[ryutenmen]

PS4 games vs XboxOne games = "my shit(PS4) is better than your(XO) shit" trying to disregard the fact that the "better" shit is still shit.

I like that you keep these developers honest. Objectively point out flaws and even suggest improvements. They should be paying you.

I don't know what the fuck we'll do without DF!!....shout out to the best gaming info channel in the world!

Meanwhile Forza 1080p 60fps never dropping and looking better, talk about a much better Dev.

[loguerto]

A racing game not running at smooth 60fps is not a racing game in my opinion.

[Szmajdzik]

Why, oh why developers in cases like this do not include locking framerate to 30fps? Some prefer unlocking with a little bit smoother 45-60fps experience. I prefer consistent 30fps. I want that feature!

P.S. Great material again DF :)

Motion blur, depth of field and chromatic aberration OFF = clearer looking presentation. There's a reason why many people instantly want to turn those three off and it freaking sucks when you can't.

50 to 60fps
Unplayable -Pc Elitist in the Df comment section.

Neo and Scorpio can't come quick enough

Should add a quick comparison to the Xbox One S at the end of these videos. According to your previous video, if the source of the performance bottleneck is the GPU, then we should see a marginal improvement on the Xbox One S. It also serves as a kind of experiment to help identify what is causing frames to drop in the first place.

[clintonmaher]

How about xbox one s? You really need to include this in all analysis from now on..

[pwx]

I guess Dave was playing the game on both XBOX and PS4 at the same time.

[jeremymorris]

This guy is straight out of Flight of the Concords!!!

[Fizzsama]

Last time I was this early



This joke was still funny.

[RetroSteve]

It's funny watching these guys try to play racing games when they test them.
