will i be able to play BF4 on Xbox One at 1080p now?
Its effeciency. Which as everyone knows Sony will not improve one iota from launch until the PS5 comes out. Because reasons.

He was talking about PC I do believe. He didn't say at the time what it would do for Xbox One other than say it would help.

Efficiency is always appreciated I suppose. Glad to hear the Bone gets some benefits from an improved Direct X 
Like others have said, you're not clocking or modifying hardware any differently, so it won't quite see the advantages some think it'll lead to, but it'll utilize what's there much better.
How far along is Sony's API in comparison? If that's even measurable?

you forgot Microsoft created DirectX
You're asking if the ps4 uses MICROSOFT's DirectX?
My eyes started twitching when I read that
It doesn't. It uses it's own tools.
And of course, Sony's own teams are optimizing things and getting better results from the GPU as time goes by. They just don't talk about it. Nobody ever did until this gen, I believe.
Also, that number is magical because it's a bullshit number using best case scenarios, *of course*. This is how PR works
Lol. I wonder if this one is real this time, or if it's 10x, no 6x, no 3x the 360's power, or was that Cloud powered, or was it new SDK tools or...oh who knows anymore.

Good to hear. As an owner of both, my friends all are Xbox users and it was annoying buying a lower res/less steady frame rate version to play with them.
That being said, Id assume Sony is constantly improving their systems as well so we shall see
Here's hoping we see some great games utilizing the extra juice

I'm with you. The console war bullshit is coming on strong in this thread. Reminds me of the Xbox reveal. How people be so upset at good news is beyond me.

Well, it isn't due to overclocking. Just the way DX12 works and the efficiency it provides (in this case providing a 50% CPU performance increase at current clock speeds).

God , I thought master race vs console peasants talk was bad but its even worse between the MS and Sony console folk... gawd. Give it a rest....
Sony has a conciderable market advantage already with the new gen, MS could really use a boost coz it was loosing on all fronts. Lets hope MS gets some more exciting games as well for at the end of the day, its the games that sell a gaming machine. Also, I wanna see that boost before I believe it...
Both have to look out for steam machines though.

Damn, basically, a boost every 6 months - 1 year... and it gets bigger! First it was 10%, now 20%... this console is unstoppable. PS4 is dead.

But then Trunks(PS4) comes out of nowhere and cuts him down.
youre joking right? assuming youre not, they cant ever make it more powerfull, never, heardware is set, the only thing they can do is use it in a more efficient way, you cant spin this.

It actually does. It works fine after the most recent patch.
It drifted away.
But dumbasses are going to run around thinking it's a 20% unlock of resources like the 10% CPU boost pre-launch and the (up to) 10% GPU without Kinect.
