Support NeoGAF

I don’t know how they can make this work without controllers but good for those who want to play it on a phone.

I know phones can use controller but not every phone user has a phone compatible controller.

 

[Comandr]

I’m just here for the meltdowns. This is gonna be fun. With this and AC Mirage coming to mobile… we’ll see how the narrative starts to change that mobile gaming isn’t real gaming.

 

[Punished Miku]

I just want to see if anyone on mobile is going to pay $60 for a game. Last I heard Nintendo was nuts for asking $10 for Mario Run, so I'm out of touch with the state of this market.

 

[Kabelly]

that's really cool. technology has come a long way that games are very scaleable now.

iPhone supports DualSense so it's easy for PS5 players at least.

What do you mean by real gaming? The problem with mobile is that most of it are trash cashgrab gaming.

The premium model doesn't exist on mobile because the audience simply doesn't want to pay $60 for these AAA game releases. However, I can see them being released in a separate tier on Apple Arcade and hopefully it should do decently well there.

 

[Eimran]

At least they released the console version first so we didn't get a shitty port.

Never understood how people enjoy this on a phone. But whatever good for them.

It’s my understanding that no pricing has been announced yet? Do you know something? Spill it!

 

[FunkMiller]

I think this is more important for the upcoming iPad Pro than for the phone, to be honest. Add a controller of your choice, and you're going to have a very decent portable gaming platform.

 

[Ozriel]

Misleading thread title, conflating two different things.
Hardware ray tracing is coming to iPhone 15 Pro, and RE4/Village comes to iPhone this year.

Nothing was said about RT in Resident Evil Village or RE4

 

[Imtjnotu]

Why can't this come to high end android phones

 

[TrebleShot]

This is amazing , Apple just entered the console space

 

[Luipadre]

Why would i play these games on a fucking phone. Also wtf is that new notch or whatever, looks ugly

 

[ThisIsMyDog]

Apple paid for Mac/Iphone versions, thats why.

USB-C to HDMI to TV

 

[DenchDeckard]

Is it at the point that you can just dock your phone to a screen?

Thats when we are fucked!

 

[LectureMaster]

Well, I think this is more of how versatile the RE Engine is rather than how powerful the hardware leap is.

 

[amigastar]

Really, phones can run current gen games now?

 

[Bernoulli]

iphone uses metal
android uses vulkan

 

[Black_Mamba]

Just when you thought they were about to ditch last gen consoles, now smartphones will be a good excuse to hold technology back.

 

[Xyphie]

XSS haters in shambles as multiplats will now be held back even further by 8GB of RAM.

 

[fart town usa]

That's wild. I love how Capcom really takes advantage of different platforms. One of the main reasons I'd hate to see them bought and restricted.

 

[DenchDeckard]

and overnight the iphone became the base for all future games?

I hope not.

 

[SenkiDala]

yeah because the iPhones 6.1 and 6.7 inches screens are pathetic but the 6.2 inches of the Switch and 5 inches of the Switch Lite are awesome.

People play more on their phones than consoles. Been that way for years now.

 

[Robb]

Could not care less.

 

[alucard0712_rus]

Ray-tracing is a waste on mobile. But this is cool for sure!

 

[Unknown Soldier]

I want to complain to the manager about how they showed Honkai Star Rail and Genshin Impact immediately after announcing RT support and those games aren't going to support RT

 

[Represent.]

Meanwhile the Switch 2 leakers are out here trying to hype up Switch 2 running fucking BOTW at 60fps. I hope this lights a fucking bomb under Nintendo's ass. Make better hardware.

 

[BootsLoader]

So Apple is going to up their Apple Arcade service and enter the gaming industry seriously this time. It is jaw dropping that iPhones can render such a game. iPhone 15 Pro has USB C so with a PS5 controller I can see people playing this on bigger screens.

The most interesting thing to see is when will Apple release Apple TV with iPhone 15 Pro chip. It will transform Apple TV to a console.

This was very interesting to see in their keynote, time will tell.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Why can't this come to high end android phones

Because Qualcomm are hopelessly behind Apple in their SoC's and also only a few Androids will have the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 that supports RT whereas Apple will have 100+ million iPhone 15 Pro install base by the end of next year ready for RT supporting games

People don't understand Apple will have an RT supporting install base as large as PS5 and Xbox Series COMBINED in less than a year

And then they complain on GAF about gaming on phones being literally 10x larger market than console gaming, maybe if Gaffers bought a new phone more often than once every decade they would actually have phones and know people game on phones

The reality is Apple moving to RT support will galvanize RT support on consoles, because phones are actually what lead the way in gaming these days

 

[dotnotbot]

I wonder if iPhone is the reason why AC Mirage looks the way it does

 

[Kabelly]

"The 15 Pro starts at $999 with 128GB of storage, and the Pro Max at $1,199 with 256GB of storage. "

T239 has twice the shader perf of this so that's not an issue.

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

I feel there’s many a Switch 2 joke in here.

 

[Dane]

These Apple APUs are really making a huge leap, aren't they? I think they even made MacBooks have a surprisingly good cost benefit in comparison with x86 ones when they launched.

 

[makaveli60]

Fuck. I was first like “hmm, impressive”. But after reading your post. Oh well...

 

[Certinty]

Couldn’t think of a worse way to ruin a great game like RE4R if i’m totally honest.

What? Im sorry but mobile and console/AAA gaming markets are two very different things.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

I would not be surprised if AC Mirage looks better and runs at higher framerate on iPhone 15 Pro than it does on PS5/XSeX

Apple Silicon runs rings around the shitty AMD APU's in the home consoles

Edit: Since we have people who think they are smart endlessly quoting this post and thinking they have won a great victory against me, let the record show that my post above says "I would not be surprised", it does not say "I guarantee this will happen"

iPhone supports DualSense so it's easy for PS5 players at least.

Insane how even iPhone supports Dualsense, but PS4 don't. Christ even PS3 supports Dualsense.

 

[SlimySnake]

Last gen.

RE4, RE Village and Mirage are all last gen games designed around 1.8 tflops GPUs.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

These custom user titles are so fucking spot on.

 

[TheInfamousKira]

This is next gen. The mud looks like real mud.

The creatures look like mud.

Leon looks like mud.

Gotg

 

[Spukc]

Raytracing in those games are fucking BOOORING

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Last gen.

RE4, RE Village and Mirage are all last gen games designed around 1.8 tflops GPUs.

You're going to try and downplay the fact that a phone has a GPU that can compete with previous 1.8 TF home console GPU's?
