Another stellar showcase for UE5 and Metahuman in 1943: Rise of Hydra. They even showed "untouched metahuman solves".

Will they repeat memory structure of PS4 Pro? It added 2GB of DDR memory to the mobo to offload some OS services to it and free up more GDDR to games.

All of this sounds promising, especially PSSR which has potentiall to really boost visual quality of PS5 games. FSR2 really pushed devs into bad image quality, especially in 60fps modes.

In the January US Circana tweets, Mat Piscatella noted that PS5 Digital is becoming more available.

Decima continues to rock.

They described Part1 remake as a project for new arrivals to get up and running on ND tech. And in 2023 after multiplayer project started idling, they probably had many devs without anything to work on.

They talked about it for years. John yells at MS all the time for this latency issue. But now the competitor has Atmos as well in games, so most likely there will be some movement to fix it.

He's a talented game dev programmer, who honed his craft in a time when a single dev was responsible for coding the entire game in low-level access to arcade hardware. After successfully leading game dev teams in PS1 years that all excelled in low-level programming and extracting a lot from PS1...
