it's like someone is offering you a new BMW for $400 and you ignore him and go to toyota dealer to buy a Corolla for $500

While it's your opinion and I respect that....but it seems somewhat silly and uninformed enough...seems like you worship MS to the point of accepting anything they throw at you..it's OK.

Holy shit.


So I just went to a couple meetings and then had dinner with my wife and my parents as we made plans for our move this winter. It was a nice talk. I wondered what was going on with gaf... Bish had admonished me, as I deserved, for teasing.


And then there's this thread. I haven't read the whole thing. I don't have it in me. Can I get a rough guestimate as to whats going on here? I see that people are assuming that my tease is related to this (which I'm still not even going to say if that's true or not, yet, because goddamnit if we're going to hold gaming journalists to higher standards I'm going to hold myself to them also). Anyway.... seems kinda meltdownish.


So I'm moving in February. You guys excited?

It's been a glorious meltdown, you're missing out. Also Albert responded on Twitter with a complete non-answer, saying the game "looks fucking amazing" with no specific resolution mentioned. So your unconfirmed rumor sounds like it actually was grounded in fact this time.

Honestly I really can't tell when I'm playing a 1080p/720p on my 50" plasma from normal distance. It's not like a pc at all where you're a foot away at most.

That being said the fact the ps4 at 100 bucks less can run a game a 1080p and the xbox 1 can't is pretty hilarious. It says a lot about the power difference and/or ease of development.

Really? I have a 50 inch 1080p plasma as well and 720p was very noticeable even at far away distance. It looks much muddier. I actually had to adjust to the Last of Us because of how bad it looked compared to 1080p gaming I had been doing on PC. I'm not saying all of that was resolution based, but I've had a big issue playing 720p games these past three years on a giant 1080p screen. It just looks bad.

Wow, just days ago he wants a list of 1080p launch games, he asks on twitter ffs. Now he doesn't want to talk about resolutions and wants you to judge for yourself.


Does he even realize how ridiculous those two tweets sound back to back?

can someone post them back to back on here.....would be funny as hell see both tweets stacked on each other.

Ok let me try to get something like a non-gif conversation going here.

What WOULD be the implications of Call of Duty: Ghosts being 720p on Xbox One, but 1080p on PS4?

Things to discuss ->

● Would there be any long term effect in sales? I personally don't think so - the cards are already set for which system will do better in the first half dozen months. It's what happens when the truly big guns start coming that will matter, not a cross gen game like this.

● Would most potential consumers even care or notice? I don't believe if they walked up into a store and saw the Xbox One version and PS4 version side by side (if the resolution stuff is true) that they would notice. However, systems and games in this industry sell on word-of-mouth more than any other factor. So they may not personally notice it, but they WOULD notice all their gamer friends saying the XBO version is markedly inferior to the PS4 version. Ergo, a boulder starts rolling down a hill...

● What does this say about Xbox One's hardware? Is it not capable of running games that look better than this @ 1080p? Of course not! As we see from Forza 5, it runs at 1080p and 60fps. But, what it may mean is that the added complexity of the system architecture - owing primarily to the ESRam memory set up - is causing hurdles in development, forcing games which are on tight deadlines to have to make concessions on the Xbox One. It has been said that PS4's dev environment was much further ahead in tools, that it is much quicker "to triangle" on the environment than its competitor. This is exactly the type of situation that would play out if true... it's not that Call of Duty is doing things too hard for the Xbox One, it's that the added complexity of the system (and thus the added dev time) is forcing launch window games to have to make more cuts in order to get within that deadline.

● I'll get Call of Duty: Ghosts on PS4 then! But you shouldn't because that shit looks fucking grotesque too.

Discuss!

You make good points and I actually agree with all of them. Especially considering how COD is typically a game casuals pick up. The main problem I have with this is about future third party games. If COD, a launch title that doesn't even look good, can only run at 720p than I fear for what the next few years holds for us. On the other hand, as time goes on, developers will gain a better understanding of the system and learn how to use the resources in a more efficient way.

The game will sell best on the 360, PS3, PS4 and XB1 in that order I imagine. The latter two, because I currently expect the PS4 to outsell the XB1 due to price and availability.

Regarding hardware, I think it speaks to the relative difficulty of the XB1's memory subsystem. Given more time I'm sure they could get a 1080p60 XB1 SKU.

Mr. Sony, I know you may not be able to or want to comment on this.

But if these rumors are true, just, could you, I don't know, put out an extra allotment of COD Bundled launch PS4s on Amazon.

We'll get the message.

wow the real shame about ALL OF THIS is that I'll need to return the great deals I got from that Toys R Us preorder b/c I ordered all my multi games on xbox instead of ps4.

Passing of the torch guys? If this is true, it's HUGE.

● Would there be any long term effect in sales? Almost none. Marketing push, plus already high COD/Xbox fan base will essentially drown this for 95% of COD players.

● Would most potential consumers even care or notice? Hardcore COD fans might, but TBH most COD players will simply buy the console their friends are buying regardless of which is better.

● What does this say about Xbox One's hardware? Is it not capable of running games that look better than this @ 1080p? 3OS and eSRAM sounds simple doesn't it?

● I'll get Call of Duty: Ghosts on PS4 then! Eh.

I guess that confirms it. He was in a position to clear up this giant shitstorm, and he chose to act as if the game still looks great.

Well it does not. Not in 1080p and not in 720p. But it is weird that Xbox One can't even hit that with a game like this.

You know what this is like?

Say Ralph's has a box of Honey Nut Cheerios for $4.99 and Vons has a box of Cheerios for $3.99

You shop at Ralph's because it's where you have a loyalty card, and you know the layout of the store.

But now it turns out the $4.99 box is not only more expensive, but a smaller box. Sure, it's about the same the size, but for less money you can get more Cheerios in a box.

WHY ARE YOU SHOPPING AT RALPH'S STILL?

BECAUSE ALL MY FRIENDS SHOP THERE!1111

I don't think it'll have a large impact unless Sony pushes their multiplatform games as the superior version. Although differences in resolution, framerate, etc will definitely influence the hardcore crowd.

If this turns out to be true, i'm officially cancelling my X1 preorder. I hate being "that guy" who screams "pre ordered canceled", but this will be the final straw.

I've made through all of the DRM sh!t, and the higher price, less performance stuff, but this will be the final straw. I LOVE Microsoft's controller, and have a decent friends list that I'd hate to part with, but this will do it for me.

I'm refreshing faster than you've EVER seen lol.

Nahhh i need full confirmation before I can fully laugh and enjoy the tears.

That's not a fair comparison though.

720p on a console with no AA and low res textures isn't the same as 1080p on a PC with all options turned up.

Try comparing apples-to-apples. The same game running on PC @ 720p vs. 1080p.
