Ever since Krazy Ken Kutagari touted that every PS3 game would run in 1080p at 120 FPS, PS3 users have been slated as tech whores. And to a certain extent, it's true - we get outraged when we hear Bayonetta runs at a slower framerate on the PS3 or that the Orange Box has framerate issues. In fact, two of the most highly anticipated games out next year, Gran Turismo 5 and God of War III are both slated to run at 60 FPS, something that any PS3 devotee could recite in their sleep.
Insomniac has always been taken pride in providing technically polished product. Their latest game, Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time, is yet another example of this, sporting some beautiful visuals at a blistering 60 FPS. However, they've done some market research indicating that the majority of consumers and critics don't care about a game running at 60 FPS.
Thus, they've come to the conclusion that this will likely be their last game to run at 60 FPS. They believe that they can achieve higher quality graphics while still mantaining a solid 30 FPS, and that would be a better use of their time.
What do you think? Better graphics @ 30 FPS or 60 FPS? Let us know, we'll be sure to share your thoughts with Insomniac. |
