Konami's Latest PC Port Is Garbage

By Dr. Evelyn Thorne | January 01, 0001

Here’s a weird thing. The PC version of Metal Gear Solid V, a Konami game running on the Fox Engine, looks great! The PC version of Pro Evolution Soccer 2016, also a Konami game running on the Fox Engine, is the worst. On PS4 and Xbox One, the game looks fantastic! I’ve been playing it on PS4 for a few days, and aside from some wonky facial stuff everything looks as good as you’d expect from a AAA sports title in 2015. The PC version, however, is hot garbage. It’s actually a weird hybrid rummy 365 game, taking some rummy 51 of the features of the PS4/XB1 version (like the improved physicality) but rummy 365 then using many of the components of the PS3/Xbox 360 edition. Most noticeable is the dip in graphics quality (both lighting and textures are worse), but you also see it in animation and stuff like goalkeeping as well.cnx.cmd.push(function(){cnx({"playerId":"e3616d04-4972-4839-a63a-c6975e2e9731","settings":{"advertising":{"macros":{"AD_UNIT":"/23178111854/od.kotaku.com/article","CHILD_UNIT":"article","POST_ID":"1731540744","POST_TYPE":"post","CHANNEL":"uncategorized","SECTION":"","SUBSECTION":"","CATEGORIES":"uncategorized","TAGS":"","NOP":"0"},"timeBeforeFirstAd":0}}}).render("cnx-player-main")}); PC customers are understandably a little upset, as you can see on the game’s Steam review page: And fair enough! It’s 2015, and the PC is a killer platform. If you’ve got a decent PC and you’re playing a multiplatform game, the very least you expect is for it to look on par with the PS4/XB1 version, if not better thanks to the PC’s potential for increased tinkering and horsepower. Instead, rummy best folks buying the PC version of PES 2016 are buying a game that, in most places, looks like something you’d find on ten-year old console hardware. Because…that’s exactly what’s happened. This video by Candylandshows the differences between rummy 51 the PC and PS4 versions. Some are minor, but others, like the lighting and crowds, are hilariously terrible: Now, those who have been playing football games on the PC for a while will know that as a concept this isn’t a new thing. EA’s FIFA series did something similar to this for a rummy best few years, though the differences weren’t as severe. It should be noted, though, that starting with last year’s FIFA 15, that series now releases the same game across both PC and current-gen consoles. What’s most mystifying about the whole thing is why this has happened! Metal Gear Solid V’s PC version—and this is a game released by the same publisher on the same engine—is fantastic, offering rock-solid framerates, fancy lighting, visual effects and nice textures. As nice as the console editions of MGSV are, the PC version is nicer. Yet here, for a series that hasn’t seen its overseer driven out of the company in bizarre circumstances, and which constitutes an important annual cash cow for the publisher, the port is terrible! Go figure. Konami gonna Konami.

Sometimes I wish there were more ways to earn rewards through loyalty programs or frequent player bonuses. Adding seasonal events or special challenges could enhance the excitement even further. The variety of games is excellent, including table games like blackjack, roulette, and baccarat, in addition to slots. This keeps the platform interesting and allows me to switch games depending on my mood. I appreciate the themed slot games, especially those based on movies and TV shows. They make the gaming experience more engaging and immersive. The combination of storyline, visuals, and bonus features makes each game feel unique.

The progressive jackpots are thrilling, and it's exciting to watch the jackpot amounts grow as more players spin the reels. I hope they add even more jackpot slots because it adds a lot of excitement to the gameplay. The payout process is generally smooth and reliable, though occasionally it takes longer than expected. Overall, I feel confident that my winnings are safe and will be credited properly.
