John, Rich and Alex share their thoughts while also sharing reactions to the latest chapter in the PS Portal hack story and Nightdive's POed remaster non-April fool. Alex shares news of his experiments with Intel's PresentMon 2.0 - and how it will change our PC games and hardware coverage - while there's intrigue and some level of excitement surrounding Intel's latest XeSS news. 0:00:00 Introduction 0:01:04 News 01: Hellblade 2 previews drop! 0:26:53 News 02: PS Portal hack patched before release 0:34:41 News 03: 90s FPS PO'ed getting Nightdive remaster 0:41:07 News 04: C-Smash VRS hits Meta Quest 0:52:03 News 05: Alex’s PresentMon experiments 1:06:57 News 06: Campaign demands: stop killing games! 1:16:19 News 07: Intel updates XeSS with revised modes 1:22:04 Supporter Q1: Would it be more practical to target 1440p than 4K for performance modes? 1:28:11 Supporter Q2: Dragon’s Dogma 2 has unimpressive NPC density, so why can’t it hit 60fps on consoles? 1:35:17 Supporter Q3: Why do some developers implement incorrect 30fps frame-rate caps? 1:43:36 Supporter Q4: Why isn’t low frame-rate compensation the default with 120Hz and VRR on PS5? 1:50:05 Supporter Q5: Could the PS5 Pro be powerful enough to run advanced path traced games? 1:55:04 Supporter Q6: With Microsoft potentially opening Xbox to third parties, was the 3DO approach right all along? 2:01:21 Supporter Q7: Would it have been better to forgo the PS5 Pro and instead shorten this console generation?
