Thanks to CyberPowerPC for sponsoring this video. Check out the Christmas PC deals here: https://bit.ly/48ZL52t and go here for the Christmas Giveaway: https://bit.ly/4pZY4Hf It's that time of the year! The Digital Foundry team discuss the big reveals and the games that caught their eye at The Game Awards, with the traditional complaints about the volume of CG trailers. Beyond that, Rich shares his impressions on the first PS3 emulator for PlayStation 5, Alex gets to grips with the wobbly performance of FSR Redstone frame generation and Oliver shares some eyebrow-raising results from Skyrim on Switch 2. And as usual, questions are answered. Questions like: "Is Star Wars Outlaws more 'bespoke' on Switch 2 than Assassin’s Creed Shadows?"
