It is a truth universally acknowledged that Insomniac Games never disappoints.

Starfield players on PC say they're struggling to maintain 60fps, even though they're not restricted by the same 30fps cap as those on console. While they can reach and even surpass 60fps, many fans are disappointed with how difficult this is to sustain, particularly during combat.

Update (22nd August 2023): Publisher Konami has clarified the frame rate and resolution for the upcoming Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1. In a statement issued to IGN, the company says the compilation has a 1080p, 60 frames-per-second «target» on all platforms (except Nintendo Switch). This means we can expect 1080p and 60fps on PS5 and PS4. It won't be reaching a nice and crisp 4K resolution, then, but it'll at least be better than the purported 720p.

In scenes reminiscent of a convoluted codec conversation, Konami has been tying itself up in knots about what exactly players can expect from Metal Gear Solid: The Master Collection Vol. 1. It's now issued a statement to VGC clarifying the target spec for the games is 1080p and 60FPS on PC, following erroneous reports (based on what Konami reps said) that the games would be running at lower resolutions and framerates.

A lot of noise was made when Rockstar announced the recently released PS5 and Nintendo Switch port for Red Dead Redemption, mostly due to its slightly absurd pricing.
