You want another example of an already fast game that's how insanely fast: Rayman Legends is practically a cartridge game now.
Borderlands 3 runs at 120fps in Performance Mode on PS5 & Series X
The Next Gen versions of Borderlands 3 run at 4k60fps in Resolution mode and 1080p 120fps in Performance Mode. This wasn't included in any of the marketing for some reason. Nor is it listed as a feature for next gen on the Gearbox website. But the game does run at 120fps on Next Gen when set...

I wonder how AC Odyssey holds up, I guess we'd need someone to pixel count it because the framerate was always reasonably close to 30fps but it was dynamic 4k with some big differences, and you could definitely notice the better quality image on Series X's higher average res. Would love if it hit (close to) native 4k.
I really don't understand how people played fighters on last gen consoles. The load time difference between playing Tekken 7 and DOA 6 on PS5 is crazy. On PS4 it would take around 40 seconds of loading between fights on Arcade mode. On PS5 that time is around 12 seconds

I moved Royal over from the external HDD to the internal SSD, and the loading times seems very fast.
My rough times using a stop watch:
From the PS5 home screen, cold boot, into the main menu (past all of the logos, Thieves Guild pop up, etc): 38 seconds.
From my Load Game save file to actual game: 4 seconds.
I honestly don't remember how long it took on the PS4 Pro, but I think it took longer than 4 seconds. lol
Overall, it's been super fast. I'm not sure if Royal had a performance mode or not, but the framerate is certainly smooth.
Borderlands 2 in "The Handsome Collection" feels like a brand new game to me. I don't recall it performing or looking this well on the PS4 Pro. Framerate is fast and buttery smooth, and the graphics seem like they're running on the equivalent of PC Ultra. No texture streaming after fast travel as far as I'm aware, which I recall being noticeable on earlier console versions of the game.
I haven't tested a ton of PS4 games so far. Finally beat GTA V story mode over the weekend and the loading times were vastly improved. I barely even heard Tangerine Dream start playing on the opening loading screen, and the character switches seemed as instantaneous as possible. No hint of texture streaming issues, either. Sucks that it's a locked 30 FPS, but I'm sure the PS5 upgrade (hopefully it's free) will include a locked 60 or, at the very least, the ability to toggle graphical enhancements on or off.
Want to try out Driveclub but pretty sure it'll all be placebo outside of loading times. Same goes for Final Fantasy VII Remake.
Madden NFL 18 unfortunately still locks post-play cutscenes to 30 FPS despite cutscenes being 60 FPS on the Xbox One X version. FIFA 14's menus appear to be faster, just as Twitter users seem to be noticing with other games in the FIFA series. Unfortunately its own cutscenes also seem to be running at a lower framerate, along with its notoriously laggy Be A Pro/goalie cam.
There absolutely is something special about playing PS4 games on the new hardware. I'm glad many of Sony's titles already came with unlocked frame rates. Makes me want to actually finish my Second Son and Killzone: Shadow Fall campaigns.

Thank you!Looks like it's gotta be pushed via the Web store on your pc of that didn't work.
Lol, nice! I don't think I actually played Legends yet. I've owned it for years, but haven't booted it up yet. XD
Downloading it now, because, why not?
It's been 4k/60 on pro for awhile, must have played before they patched it for pro
Pretty much anything hits its locks now. Fallen Order too. There is gameplay on youtube.
Should be maxing out at 1620t now

That value was from pixel counting done by a user on here, but a week or so later Digital Foundry seemed to think it can go all the way up to 4k but were never able to get it above 1584p so I'm not sure where it will actually max out.Should be maxing out at 1620t now

I hope the dynamic res goes all the way up to 4K. I'd love an excuse to reinstall and wrap up the discovery tour.
That's just the One X version

Not necessarily, that just says how high he managed to get the dynamic res, there's nothing about it being capped, it may or may not be. In the video he says both systems target 4k. That's why I was saying a pixel count on PS5 is needed.That's just the One X version

It's the maximum resolution they can make the game run at without massive framerate drops. They could stick with 1440p but that way acn scratch some more pixels to enhance the scale.
Explained below.
It wasn't a "standard" one you normally see, at least not one I ever see.
You might be surprised, there's PS4 games that hit lows of 20 or even 15 fps ending up at locked 60fps on PS5. If it can manage that, it can probably pull off similar feats with dynamic resolution, especially if a lot of those games were suffering from a lack of CPU power.
FWIW, I have Golem (PSVR) on disc and I installed it today. It shows as playable for me. I still need to setup my VR on the PS5 to test it but it doesn't show unplayable. Hopefully I can try later and it loads up.
It shows up in the library as Ace Combat 7 for me, even though I don't own AC7. If you click information on the AC7 tile it will show the proper picture/info for AC5. Haven't tried running it but I assume it works normally
Royal was 4k/30 on pro and the initial load was bottlenecked by all those splash screens. Loading a save was relatively fast so it doesn't sound like much has changed on PS5 tbh; it's a game that would benefit from quick resume or activities to load your save directly!
This game still looks incredible. If you told me this was a cross gen ps4/5 game I would believe it.
looks better the valhalla imo.
I don't count pixels but it's buttery smooth and the visuals are cleaner than I remembered on the Pro.
Best of all, no jet engine sounds.
Destiny 2 looks like native 4K on PS5. I know that the patch hasn't come out yet, but it looks far crisper than the checkerboard 4K on PS4 Pro.

This is a common technique for finding the highest possible value. But Digital Foundry, NXGamer , and VG Tech (as well as I) also give the typical values that are reached in normal play. The PS5 isn't magic, so not all games will be constantly maxed. But it's been raising these modal resolutions considerably versus PS4.
Please let us know how it goes.
I do count pixels, and would love to have an opportunity here. Is there any way you can post a 4K screenshot?
The same goes for anyone contributing to the thread. Links or posts of 60fps video and/or 4K screens is extremely beneficial. Thanks in advance for your help!

Sorry for the double post, but if you could share a 4K screenshot I could take a look. Something during fast motion (of guardian, camera, or both) might be best.
Thank you for clarifying, looking forward to any counts you may be able to supply.
I played a bunch of stage 1 this weekend and got 100% shoot down; seemed great performance-wise, but this port has always felt a little off to me, I'm not sure they handled the switch from 4:3 to 16:9 correctly... but maybe I'm just rusty and it was always tuned like this.
Supposedly, yes!
You can also just pay $5 for a month of EA Play and blast through the game, as I shall :)
Deck13 have replied to their twitter saying that if you disable lens flare in the game options, this issue should go away. Not a proper fix I know but should do for now until they fit it (if they do!)
The US version of Golem was added to the compatibly API today having previously not been listed at all, so it is now reported as compatible (the same as the European version has always been).
