More like STOP production and sell them as set top boxes to play Windows 8 apps\games, then create a real next gen games system like they should have in the first place.


Think about the console Microsoft COULD have created with their $$$ war chest, who knows at this point I"m guessing we'll never know and that X1 will be MS last console.

They've shit on EVERYTHING that made the OG and 360 a success from a popularity standpoint

yeah I think this is the end of ms in gaming.

was hoping they could turn it around but they won't. lose the cod crowd and it's over. cancelled within three years I fear.

Pretty much figured the multiple leaks pointing to this were right, about time they just confirmed it. The comparison thread is going to be hilarious.

Anyone know if the PS4/XB1 versions of this game support more than 6 vs 6 players? That's a bit low...

I think it's up to 9v9? Not entirely sure.

I don't think this is as big a deal as some make it out to be. Personally, I think that bandwidth will be more important than the resolution of your games to the average gamer moving forward.

By the next "PlayStation" and "Xbox" come out, we'll be seeing more and more streaming of games. In fact, I think the future of both brands will be completely online. You'll get a box but you'll stream all of the games.

And ps4 is locked at 60 right?

I guess with the tight deadlines they're under they haven't had time to get to grips with the properly esram and the supposedly inferior tools didn't help I bet. Hopefully they can at least get up to 900p next year.

Activision ought to put a 3rd studio on cod 2014 so treyarch can spend some time working on a new engine, because honestly they should be embarrassed how technologically superior they're competitors are on next gen.

This is not an optimal situation. For those of you following cboat, it looks like the hardware definitely was not finalized until very late in the grand scheme of things. The GPU overclock is definitely a big thing. The supposed OS issues would have taken a hit too. I expect that since Sony had their hardware finalized when it should have been, that this is a big thing to consider, it might not all be about raw power, like some believe.

Hopefully Microsoft gets their OS fixed and optimized. I am optimistic towards the future. Luckily I don't care about COD, for COD fans it is bad news, but at least for launch XB1 games are worse resolution than PS4.

what?? even if this was the case this gen between Sony and Microsoft one of them has invested heavily into streaming game technology.

its not Microsoft.

Embarrassing that the XBO can't do 1080p on such an ugly game.

Will there always be this delta in resolution between the PS4 and XBO? Anyway updated tools can make a work around the ESRAM bottleneck so the XBO can hit 1080p? Or is MS pretty much screwed the entire generation?

Let's wait for the Digital Foundry comparison first :p

Can we go with the JackFrags comparison instead, that seems better :p

Also: should we all invest in shelters or are we good now?

Its a testament to Gaf's vetting, a slap in the face to some of those doubters, "Neogaf correct again" .. Im sure they didn't comment too much when even the mighty can be banned like our good friend Thuway last week when he got a little excited with news :)

Fact is the insiders + Gaf should be proud

I don't see them jumping to a new engine until 360/PS3 drop and the PS4/Xbox One user-base increases. They just cannot loose all that last-gen cash.

This has to be just lack of time and tools being behind, the specs of the X1 should be running this game a lot better than 720p. I'd be amazed if this is still the case for Black Ops 3 or whatever next years game is.
Click to expand...

Tools and time will buy you ~10fps, not double the resolution. How people could not admit that 176GB/s memory bandwidth was better than whatever voodoo math MS did to inflate their slow DDR3 + eSRAM hack number is beyond me.

Will always be there unless the PS4 version is purposefully gimped. Something has to give when going from PS4 to XB1. Resolution, frame-rate, effects, details. Something has to be dialed back.

If MW2 and BO1 are anything to go by nope ( hackers galore)

Not sure how MW3 or BO2 are but from the free weekends they still had a good amount of hackers ( i know that is when hackers are at there most though)

Are you serious? I mean, Sony has the more powerful box, yeah, but... are you serious?
Click to expand...

a bit yeah. I do think ms will get out of the field when they lose money again.

the ps gen were always massively behind their box and for the first time they have the strongest clear winner.

this monster will sell 150 million. ms will struggle like wiiu and they won't stick with gaming like Nint have to, they'll cut their losses.

in future this tweet might go down as the tweet that killed ms (well obviously bad decisions killed them but you know what I mean).
seriously.

I think you're a bit overstepping here. This power difference will indeed matter (word of mouth works wonders) but Microsoft's system will still sell. There are those out there who will have no idea that there's a difference and who just want to play on the ecosystem they've been on forever, the same one their friends are on, the same one that gets the DLC day 1. So they will stay with the Xbox. Xbox will also have solid enough exclusives to keep chugging.

Saying the Xbox is dead is a biiiiiiit of a stretch at this point.

You know what's even better? Running at 1080P smoothly with an extra $100 in your pocket.

Yes, that would be the preferred solution. But I'm not making my next-gen decision based on how the first CoD game performs resolution wise. I am just speaking as someone who was always going to buy a Xbox One and not likely to buy a PS4 for years, it's disappointing, but better to go down the low res, high performance path than the high res, low performance path.

I've got nothing bad to say for those who are getting the PS4, because clearly they will be getting the superior version of CoD Ghosts from a visuals perspective and they are getting it for a lower price. Kudos.

They don't need to, reaction to and threads of the like is doing the job for them, I think sitting back and saying nothing, and then come the next E3, TGS, Gamescom or whatever the next convention is then tag the line "we have more fullHD games than the competition" or something, would be better for them.
Click to expand...

Maybe its because I'm hearing "Xbox is more powerful" at work, but I'm of the mindset that any fanboy bait needs to be nipped in the bud as quickly as possibly so long as you don't go down in the mud with them. Now that they have multiplatform game evidence, I think they should speak but that is just me.
