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
In case anybody was still wondering why we put our insiders through the wringer - here's your case in point.Wow 720p. Props to famousmortimer, thruway and CBOAT.
Let's wait for the Digital Foundry comparison firstShouldn't the Wii U be like a mile back in that photo? With the Xbox right outside the window?
Anyone know if the PS4/XB1 versions of this game support more than 6 vs 6 players? That's a bit low...
Maths.Half of $500 is not $300
expanding on this
360 to PS4 = 20% diff
360 to Xbone = 48% diff
Xbone to PS4 = 125% diff
PS3 to PS4 = 300% diff
If nothing else at least this should put fears to rest about whether or not developers would hold back the PS4 versions of their games.
I wonder what the situation will be like in a couple of years. Bigger difference or smaller?
Oh god.... DF is lowering the dials on Gamma and Brightness as we speak. CantSeeShit.GIF
But yea, crazy. I'm literally in shock by these developments.
Add me for BF4

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.

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.

After the PS2 I speculate this to be the generation closest to the 'one console future'.

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.
Buy a X1 to listen to your own music.
or
Buy a Ps4 to play games in full HD.
This is going to blow up in Microsoft's face in a bit when the internet reads this news.
But moneyhats!
Forced parity!
Lowest common denominator!
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.
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?
PC version = Definitive version.
Can't wait for this.
Made my day!
Wow 720p. Props to famousmortimer, thruway and CBOAT.
So Albert is allowed to know now, right?
Are you serious? I mean, Sony has the more powerful box, yeah, but... are you serious?
So Albert is allowed to know now, right?
Oh hey, it's one of the guys who tried to mock me for saying that we understood what the PS4's superior hardware would mean for game performance, even if Microsoft didn't.
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.
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.
Are these real screens? The Xbox version looks so much more vibrant and sharp.
Eating crow
Wario64 said there's no MP3 support on the X1.
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.You know what's even better? Running at 1080P smoothly with an extra $100 in your pocket.
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.
