Tile based deferred rendering consoles

[archie4oz]

You'll have to add me to the "ambiguous" crowd... You need to be more specific to what you're implying... And I'd toss in the GScube along in the close nether world since it could be used in a manner similar to UNC's Pixel Planes system...

topic says "Tile based deferred rendering consoles"

Only the Dreamcast due to its PowerVR chip is such a thing, AFAIK.

I think only the Dreamcast did that. you know, the Sega console once release d many many years ago 8)

what's Tile-based-deferred rendering?

You may well be deterred,
but you should be referred,
to these posts that inferred,
that graphics were preferred,
in a console that renderred,
in memory that frame-buffered,
and the pixels were transferred,
and rasterizing was deferred,
and not shaken nor stirred,
but ultimately reverred,
as the elegant Dreamcast!

ehh...apparently, tile based deferred rendering is something that the Dreamcast did.

based on that complex bit of poetry, I am now convinced and must state that DC is the only console to have it.

I think we are closing in on the truth 8)

Good effort.

Great! Maybe we should have a new genre of poetry - someone wants to suggest a name?

Oh no, saw that one too. (Replied in it once as well.) It's a running tally, you see...

I think we can conclude that the only console to use tile based rendering was the Dreamcast.

 

[rabidrabbit]

I'm have a chat with a person and they are trying to tell me that the dreamcast was not the only deferred tile based rendering console .

He claims jaguar , saturn , psone , ps2 , xbox and others are deferred renders .

Since he does not believe me can you all list all the consoles that have used deferred rending.

As this thread seems to have strayed way off-topic (as threads involving the Dreamcast (which btw is the only console using deferred tile based rendering) often do. I'm going to put this back on the track.
I'm almost 100% positive there's no other consoles than Dreamcast that use tile based deferred rendering.
What do others think? Is/has there been other consoles that did TBDR?

Wait just so we are clear the dreamcast was the only system to use this correct ?


Sorry but i needed to put my friend in his place.

Once i linked to the site he shut up (should have told him i post here all the time )

Yes . I slept with his father and thats how he was born

whaaaa ? sorry its 6:30 in the morning. can't really responed well to a self hating heterophob going to bed now

 

[rabidrabbit]

jvd a gay
What makes you think so?
I mean, I'm not really surprised, my 'gay radar' has always somehow been beeping in his direction. And I've noticed he's been trying to flirt and 'hit' on you.
But still, I had thought there'd be some hope left.

Anyway, I don't think jvd's gayness has anything to do with the fact that DC was the only console to use tile based deferred rendering (or does it...)

When Sega decided to use a tile based deferred renderer, the universe split in two alternate dimensions, and JVD and my destiny changed forever. Now he's gay and i'm a straight heterophobe who only acts gay because it's the "cool thing" now. So, i hate straight people, including myself. Because i'm REALLY straight.

Does everyone in the other universe have beards?
