Wise move! How does it work? Once they approve it, will it get posted here?
The brick walls did look great
At least he got banned for that. That was awful.
Honestly, I think they just wanted a big box to take over your living room.

You seriously believe people don't pay attention to resolution when buying TVs? Hell, this is just turning into "consumers can't tell the difference between SD and HD" part two.
It's one thing to argue "consumers don't care about hardware differences." That's true - they're not paying attention to a 7770 vs 7850, ESRAM + DDR3 vs GDDR5, etc. But throw something that's more in familiar territory - like HDTV resolution numbers - that's something people can pick up on much more easily.
I just got a reply to my tweet
Exactly. You don't reveal a third party's information without their permission. Good on ya, Yosh.

Ask MS, and they'll tell you that they want the clocks back 6 months

Of course! This was known for ages. It simply cannot be replaced. If you want more storage you need to buy an external drive (USB?). And I also remember that the feature won't be ready by launch.

He should be wearing goggles really. Health and safety would be livid with him for taking a risk like this.
Brilliant.

Whoa whoa. Didn't someone say that the PS4 reviews were embargoed until the 5th and the XBOne's on the 12th? Both are 10 days away from their respective launches. I have a problem with embargoes in general, but I'm not seeing the conspiracy here if this is the case. Both companies have an embargo 10 days prior to their respective launches.
Considering most people can't even calibrate their fucking TVs properly, I honestly don't think they do. I get customers pissed off that both XB1 and PS4 use HDMI only and not analog connections. ><

This man gets it.
The only way "resolution gate" matters is if 3rd party developers start coming out in droves forgoing the development of One versions of games. If we return to PS2-era volumes of exclusive software for Sony, then consumers will care.
Otherwise, the only people who will care are lurking or posting here. Lower visual fidelity relative to the competition didn't stop the Genesis, PS2, or Wii from selling in droves and being strong competitors...and at present there are fewer and fewer exclusive 3rd party games than in those generations past.
The GAF echo chamber is loud and entertaining, but feels out of touch. Sometimes too deep in the details many don't care strongly about. This is one of those times. Not to say that resolution and power differences aren't the base upon which many will decide which console to buy...but if it was *that* important, you'd probably be a PC gamer. On consoles, it's about the games, pure and simple. If we see 3rd parties making more and more games PS4 exclusive this will be a big deal. Until then, multiplats -- which I think represent the largest segment of game sales (conjecture) -- will still be present and accounted for from all the franchises your average gamer these days want...while remaining the only place to play Gears, Halo and the rest for the forseeable future. That matters more than resolution, as much as it may bother some.
what if BF4 and Ghosts are 720p on Xbox One but run MUCH smoother than on PS4..? what if the PS4 versions chug like crazy? which one would you rather PLAY? remember what happened with PS3 versions this gen, almost all had framerate issues compared to Xbox 360... i could see history repeating itself again. MS aren't stupid. besides a lot of people only have 720p tvs anyway so they won't miss 1080p. it's just a luxury, not necessary for good gameplay. and do you honestly REALLY trust a Dualshock to be good with FPS shooters? yeah no thanks
anyway.. whatever the case you can play Titanfall ONLY on Xbox LIVE
Think people are underestimating the impact of this. Even if consumers can't tell the difference between the resolutions unless if they are side-by-side, just the fact that one version is better than the other will influence their buying decisions. Particularly for those getting both consoles.
The Order is fully 1080p game with letterbox or 16:9 ratio, whatever. Just like the movies on blu-ray.

Nah, it's happening in 18 minutes.
Is it because Xbone is submerged and drowning?
Maybe I am naive here, but I am sure that guys username was Astroturfing...maybe it's not to be taken seriously?

Okay it's definitely 900p.There are going to be confirmed sub-1080p games whenever they announce what BF4's resolution is.
I'm staying up for that as well. GAF drama is quite the stimulant.
give Conrad a medal. lol that was hilarious!

Guys, at least most of the games are 60fps. Gotta look at the better part of the picture or else we will get 720p -30fps like last gen.

I've been saying this for ages. For some reason, no one seemed to agree! :'(
I wasn't defending Albert, but this was the most naive argument I had seen on Gaf that wasn't getting challenged by more than 2 people.

Well, mortimer says that it's 1080p at present.There are going to be confirmed sub-1080p games whenever they announce what BF4's resolution is.
But you could certainly be right.
In any event, there will surely be sub-1080p games, and even 720p games, on the PS4 as well, depending on other development priorities and/or budgets for particular games. People who think everything is going to be 1080p are in for a rude awakening I imagine.

Damn all these foreboding and/or depressing news, truly this is the signal that next gen is close. 21 days till liftoff!!!!

Not sure but it says more about MSFT's state of affairs really. And that Sony's SW and tools are more mature. By what degree, I don't know.
Ever since it was posted this bit of information has me curious and worried about these technical issues. I hope we get more info soon.
This thread has been keeping me up too long... I need sleep!

I don't know shit about programming but is a patch even possible for such a drastic change? It would be like the the most game-altering patch in video game history.
