What's up everybody welcome to IG and Game Scoop. I'm your host Damon Hadfield joining me this week is Justin Davis

Oop Tina Meeney back and Sam Clayborn everybody and we've got a great show for you this week. We're talking about that very impressive unreal five engine tech demo. We're gonna talk about ghosts of Tsushima which we just finally got a nice long gameplay

demonstration for but first you know I'm sorry we just hold on a second we've been shooting the show from home for a long time now

had the same background for so long and wearing the same hat I just feel like I feel like we need to like mix it up a little bit

hit one one second okay okay great cool is that is that a screen oh yeah it is oh my goodness

oh my goodness oh yeah oh yeah one day I was scrolling through Instagram and this how they get you this baseball cap with an LCD screen on it showed up and I knew I had to get it for this purpose

did you have to go ahead of program no it's it doesn't app on your phone that used to type in whatever you want I can make this say whatever I want

yeah I don't know if this colors or not what's one other thing you've made it say I could I could also adjust I admit it's a kingo and I showed it to kingo and he laughed I'm sure he knew what it said you can also

adjust the animation and have a go from side to side whatever you want so we're gonna be able to use this in any number of ways on the show I feel this is this is the refresh

this is the refresh game scoop has been needing I think yeah yeah I can see that and if you're just listening to this the audio version of the show I'm wearing a very expensive looking hat with an LCD screen on it that says scoop and nothing else he's right nothing else that's right that's right we're tuning in for hopefully there'll be some underwear with an LCD screen on it I can buy from Instagram

we okay okay hopefully everyone got a chance to watch that unreal engine five tech demo running on a PlayStation 5 captured from a PlayStation 5 the one up earlier this week what do I think were you impressed

I mean it was certainly gorgeous but so our tech demos meant to be I thought it was really really pretty and I thought it was a game I would play which is funny to say for something you watch for about

as long as any three reveal yeah but like if that was Nathan Drake in that game it would just make total sense it was kind of funny how uncharted it felt even with like the colors on the wall that you climb

yeah over with internet or something yeah yeah with the ending for sure yeah I thought you gave me two murder vibes for sure yeah to be awesome it's great I thought I thought it was great they talked a lot about triangles that's specifically that was everyone's big takeaway I think my favorite headline was from

the hard time something along the lines of like there's just a shortage of triangles in the world now thanks to this new unreal engine tech we're not talking about polygons anymore just triangles yeah particles articles make sense lumens

now I'm I mean it was really impressive I think like I think the most exciting thing about it was this was sort of the real the first real and it's weird to say that

because it wasn't really a ps5 reveal by any means but it was a first like connection to that in a tangible genuine way that we could actually look at but again it's tech demo you know how how expansive is that going to be across how many games is it going to be in like the immediate launch window or is it more like two years into the console's lifecycle lots of questions around that stuff.

I don't think it's actually going to be available until 2021 so I wouldn't expect to see that tech in any launch games.

I think I see that we did you see that we found like an old unreal for demo for the PlayStation 4 and it was like the exact same marketing beat and yeah it looks pretty good but it's kind of choppy and janky and games like I think you know look better than that now which is kind of cool for sure for sure.

Yeah, I really appreciated that it's been a lot of time talking about how it will make certain aspects of game development easier like they had this flock of bats that like were actually bats that like someone animated it was just like you know particles that were like made up to be all fancy and move around like a flock of bats and like that's something that keeps bugging me about next gen is like okay so you're going to have eight textures and like these incredibly detailed game worlds but like it's going to take teams of thousands and thousands of people you know you can see that it's going to be a lot of fun and you know it's going to be a lot of fun.

It's going to take teams of thousands and thousands of people years to make them like the graphical power can only be taken advantage of if you have the ability to like make these detailed world so seeing software catch up to like fewer developers able to create worlds and caves and trees and things like that faster and more efficiently is like a totally critical part of the next gen puzzle.

Hey Justin, a flock of bats is actually called a colony of bats.
