720p?… I’m sorry but I don’t want 720p – that’s not my business – I don’t want it to run at upscaled resolutions. I should like to see joy for everyone if possible, Xbox Fan, PS4 Fan, Nintendo or Ouya fan. We all want to help one another, human beings are like that.
We all want to live by each other’s happiness, not by each other’s misery. We don’t want to hate and despise one another. In this forum there is room for everyone and the industry is rich and can provide for everyone.

The way of life can be free to play and beautiful.

But we have lost the way.

Greed has poisoned men’s souls – has barricaded the Netflix with Gold; has goose-stepped us into misery and frustration.

We have developed speed but we have shut ourselves in: CPU's that give over-clocking capabilities have left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical, our cleverness hard and unkind. We think too much and play too little: More than Xbone we need PS4; More than PR we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost.

The Cloud and the forums have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men, cries out for universal brotherhood for the unity of us all. Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world, millions of despairing Xbox and Nintendo fans, victims of a system that makes men lie and mislead innocent people. To those who can hear me I say “Do not despair”.

The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed, the bitterness of men who fear the way of humA: the hate of men will pass and CEO's and PR men will be fired and the power they took from the people, will return to the people and so long as men get fired, gaming will never perish…

Gamers – don’t give yourselves to PR men, men who despise you and enslave you – who regiment your lives, tell you what to do, what to think and what to feel, who drill you, lie to you, treat you as accounts, as bags of money.

Don’t give yourselves to these unnatural men, machine men, with machine minds and machine hearts. You are not machines. You are not bags of money. You are Gamers. You have the love of the industry in your hearts. You don’t hate – only the unloved hate. Only the unloved and the unnatural. Gamers – don’t fight for DRM, fight for NoDRM.

In the seventeenth chapter of Saint Luke it is written ” the kingdom of Cerny is within man ” – not one man, nor a group of men – but in all men – in you, the people.

You the people have the power, the power to create machines, the power to create happiness. You the people have the power to make life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure. Then in the name of all gamers let’s use that power – let us all unite. Let us fight for a new world, a decent world that will give gamers a chance to play without paywalls, that will give you the Netflix and Youtube and Privacy. By the promise of these things, PR men have risen to power, but they lie. They do not fulfil their promise, they never will. CEO's enrich themselves but they enslave the gamers. Now let us fight to fulfil that promise. Let us fight to free the world, to do away with Paywalls, do away with 720p, with hate and intolerance. Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where upscalers and high resolutions will lead to all men’s happiness.

Gamers – in the name of the Industry, let us all unite!”

Crytek is one of the most technically proficient teams in the world.

It is like if Naughty Dog had a launch title ready for the PS4.

Well heck, GG is very good and look at what they have done with Killzone at launch @ 1080p.

Ryse is 900p x 30fps

Killzone is 1080p x 60fps ( MP ), higher fidelity 30fps ( sp )

If Crytek cannot push the X1 that far, noone else MS has will ever be able to do it.



That 67GB/s main memory bandwidth bottleneck will never be overcome. When I saw that I flipped my shit. Could not believe it.

I saw this coming in May, as soon as that number was shown.
You do raise a really valid point if GG is putting a 1080p launch title and Crytech the masters of rig melting games are struggling for are needing to optimize for 900p just how far behind is the XOne really.

I assume all of the people who think that there is little difference between 1080p and 720p all own 720p televisions and don't play Blu-Rays or stream 1080p movies, right? Sorry, it's a little hard to take people seriously who are still banging that drum in this day and age. This argument was dead and buried a long time ago and the only time people still use it is when they have an agenda to push, which in this case is trying to lessen the blowback from a so-called next gen console that can't even manage full HD in it's biggest titles.

Quite true, maybe MS can put out an "expansion pack" type of thing for the XB1... yeah right.

I just woke up..and had the same reaction. Think I have 42 pages to go thru at work lol.


famousmortimer teases a big bomb in COD thread, but doesn't say what it is until confirmation.

BruceLeeRoy, bishoptl, and a few others also hint at it until thuway comes and drops the 720p bomb for COD,

Lots of collaborating quotes from various insiders, amir0x creates new thread, albert pinello comes and tries to refute the claims, cboat shows up and drops truthfacts directly against albert.

Crazy day.

this is what happened

This would be like the 360 having to render Call of Duty 2 in 480p at its launch.

Hopefully this is a misunderstanding or a fluke. Resolution isn't everything. The Wii U Ghosts will most likely also be 720p but I bet there will be a sizeable leap in fidelity between it and X1.

That said, I'll be going for 1080p. I can easily and immediately see resolution differences. It's a bit scary to see launch games challenge a system's power. Makes the future feel a bit uncertain to be charitable.

I just don't understand how the XO was not planned to do 1080p at ease. Also the PS4.

Last gen, the step was huge. We went from SD to HD. During this time, HDTVs became accepted in televisions everywhere.

Naturally, HDTVs are improving and full HD is now the norm. Logic only says these next gen systems should progress to full 1080P resolution, since it would be the logical next step after these last systems displayed HD content.

I just don't get how the XO or the PS4 do not include some sort of dedicated RAM, a separate CPU core with the sole purpose to stream the content for full 1080p. If that doesn't work, then a more powerful GPU.

Who is famousmortimer and who does he work for?
He is a very reliable and conscientious industry inside who graces us with great info and usually cause a class 10 shit storm in his wake. But for those of us who are new here could someone be so kind as to give a break down maybe in the Off-topic section of who all our insiders are and maybe some history on them.

Holyshit, i just came home from a dinner with my family and found this thread; wth is going on?? Oh well, time to start reading through this thread **pours himself a cup of coffe** It's gonna a long night reading!
 
Wow. I missed out on all the fun. Any recap or should I jump to page one for awesomeness?

It's probably awesome enough to warrant a full pass; but I dropped in at like page 55-60 and got the general idea.

There was even a CBOAT appearance in there; along with more Penello spin.
 
I'm baffled. CoD Ghosts will run at 720p and 60fps on Xbox 360. So what exactly is going on if XB1 can also only run a game developed primarily for last-gen consoles at the exact same resolution and framerate?

Right, again, that's because of the size of NeoGAF now versus the way it was back then. Right now, NeoGAF probably has an equal percentage of its total userbase negative about the Xbox one as we were about the PS3. Every PS3 thread was negative on neoGAF for ages after 2006. All the threads about multiplatform games being better on 360? This is almost chump change.

It's just the scale of the debate has grown so much that it's hard to hold any conversation, positive or negative. But obviously since most people are rightfully going to be negative about XBO, it's the small percentage of people who remain positive who feels the community is too difficult to handle right now.

And as I said, I can sympathize with that. I've never been afraid to enter a fray, no matter how many people were against me if I feel I have the right of it. But I know that's not for everyone.

Yea, you're right. I wasn't here for the last console release so I don't have a reliable barometer. It's annoying as hell though when something that could be full of information gets derailed into a console argument.

My thoughts as well

There is a very noticeable difference between 1080p blu-ray movies and 720p TV/DVD etc....

"GAF's biggest wanker"
Some of the reaction is unwarranted. We've been hearing rumours that development on the Xbox is a few months behind that of Sony's machine, so it wouldn't be entirely surprising that some games weren't as polished; we saw this early on in the life of the PS3 too if you recall.
That's not going to be enough to level that playing field. PS3 and 360 released 4-5 yrs after their progenitors. These consoles are releasing 7-8 yrs after theirs. There's much less excuse to be "a few months behind" when you already took a few extra years to move on to new generation.

If anything, I the delay to Driveclub is probably more harmful than this
I don't know, dude, a brand new exclusive, built natively for the new hardware, in a broadly popular genre, releasing smack dab in the middle of the period traditionally known as the post-launch draught? I don't think I'd want to go with your wager.

do you think resolution is only thing that affects graphics? XB1 will likely have a lot better iq, effects and textures.

as to the PS4 vs XB1... who needs exclusives?
