Man, first replies on Twitter are almost always great.
Yep, nothing to do with XBox One at all.

To date? Zero.
Thanks for finding your original quote.

Oh, that 720p thing? Psshhhhh, that's nothing. /s
Sony is pushing hard for 1080p for all their games, at least from their 1st and 2nd party studios. I don't know of any game announced to be 720p on the PS4, but someone may correct me.

Well, it seems like there are a multitude of "explosions" happening online right now. The one with Sessler doesn't seem to involve MS, so he's not lying. He's being misleading, but he's not lying.

Exactly. We exploded over certain games and resolutions, then came the cryptic tweets and people thought they were related when they weren't. Two separate issues entirely.

If that's nothing...it makes you wonder what's to come. LOL
Someone clarify something for me.
So, assuming it is Sony enforcing some sort of copyright claim where people aren't allowed to monetize/edit game footage... wouldn't that only just apply to their 1st party games? I would think its up to the individual publisher, wouldn't it?

That is a good guess would explain why Sessler is disappointed about it while other major sites could care less
oh and the other guys... Anything bad related to Sony is a field day for them
they've been deprived for Months now you know
I agree with you here Jobbs. There is a niche for anyone willing to report the truth about this industry. Getting games that someone actually paid for would be a start. We need an equivalent of The Audio Critic in the games industry. Said this a few times. Although AC didn't make it for telling too much truth.
I have no idea what the Ses, Gies tweets are about. They should report wtf they are talking about.

The xbox-centric propaganda machine are continuing to find an angle of any sort; in order to try and balance out the negative image of the xbox720p; by trying to knock the PS4 image down a peg.
Unfortunately, they are running dry and grasping at straws. As such, they are left trying to make a mountain out of a small hill of sand; which appears to currently reside in Sessler's vagina.
I think that covers it.
None.
So is the jist of it is that Sony is making life harder on journalists who trying to upload content from their supposedly limited amount of PS4 kits they have?
Why would Sony do this in the first place and why haven't we heard anything from the bigger sites like IGN and Gamespot staff?

It's just the BF4 console command to take a screenshot (which dumped it at the native resolution of the game) and then I upscaled it with whatever default is on irfanview.
I do have FXAA High on in game so it does have a blur filter.
Hmm could depend on how they get paid I guess. It may not affect everybody the same way, whatever the news is.

ok. I didn't see that follow up. I think it's all moot anyway as 900p and 1080p is not much of a difference.
One theory is that Youtube monetization is the biggest issue. IGN and Gamespot don't rely on that revenue, but outlets like Rev3 do.

900p will look fine, if the settings are still close to Ultra on PS4.
720p on the other hand looks noticably worse than 1080p... (see link)

Was a while back so could have changed by now, but someone that got hands on with the PS4 version claimed that it was comparable with PC's medium settings. Happen to have any pictures with it set to medium?
So just gonna do some deductive logic here the insider previews this week were AC4, Ghosts, and BF4; Sony didn't hold anything we know he went to the Ghost and BF4 events uncertain about AC4 we know that Activision always talks about user generated content so them doing something like this isn't likely, Sony wasn't talking to anyone to state a new policy to begin with so I am going to go out on a limb here and postulate that EA has decided to pull one of there trademark douche canoe moves and that what has him pissed.
Seems to be the case. If that's what's actually happening. God this shit is confusing when no one can say what is actually happening with out losing their jobs.

But this would be a huge story from every news agency and there would be more than Adam Sessler complaining about it. It would affect people who get millions of hits on their videos.
Wtf? GAF exploded because of Jeremy Conrad saying Xbox One version of CoD:Ghosts was 720p confirmed. Then CheapyD chimed in and then Arthur Gies too.
We all just assumed Sessler was talking about the same thing but apparently not.
So all is not well Mr. Penello.
From my understanding so far:
1.) CoD Ghosts is 1080p/60FPS on PS4 and 720p/60 FPS on Xbox One.
2.) BF4 is 900p/60FPS on PS4 and 720p/60FPS on Xbox One.
3.) Sessler, Dent, and Gies were all talking about some video capture issue with their cryptic messages.

Hasn't Sony been handing dev kits out for free?
Must be about capturing video footage so I guess Sony is limiting which outlets are able to do it.
Wait, this is Sony? I thought he was talking about Microsoft this whole time.
scheduling, both consoles seem to be following a 4 week content calendar.
They release 1 week apart, the reviews will come one week apart. Just like how the ads seem to be flowing out 1 week apart.
It is pretty common for reviews to coincide with major advertising and marketing blitzes across many industries. They are timed specifically to maximize hype, and tend to follow a 4 week schedule. It's done the same way with the clients I work on (autos, not gaming, but it is common for packaged goods, tech, beauty products etc.)
It's all about timing.
All signs point to yes.Has the rumor of Ghosts running in 720p on Xbox One been confirmed yet?!
Terrible news if true
Nonsense from Kevin Dent, Arthur Gies and Adam Sessler.
Thuway is saying that BF4 is 900p on PS4.
He's talking like he would be out of a job or something. Don't think EA alone would make him think like this.
Also...thinking about something else....
Harvey Dent (bad joke I know) mentioned that this all stemmed from a "publishers event" and he would name them if he thought it was important....then Mortimer responded about the "CoD" event....
Now as far as I know....Sony's review event is in November...is it not possible that the HDCP thing is Sony issue (being fixed) but this YouTube/monetization/Sessler's wife stuff is ACTIVISION not wanting their games captured???...not being able to include video of Ghosts in a video would be a BIG DEAL for a site like Sessler's...

Sorry but saying that it has "nothing" to do with XBONE is a lie.
Me too, I wish this thread would slow down
Sorry, I should have been clearer. The idea is that a major publisher or whoever (again, specifics are hard to come by) is restricting the use of their intellectual property in videos that are monetized.
I thought DICE already said that PS4 is 900p...No beggie at all, also whats Sessler drama?
Lol * 2
I'm going to love the shit out of the PS4, but there's so much fanatical Sony worship going on right now, it's ludicrous. Is the PS4 your newborn child?
Apparently. Which doesn't make any sense to me, since the X1 is the console that has an embargo on reviews until launch... meanwhile - as far as I know - Sony has no such policy in place for the PS4.
I think he tweeted that after reaching out to Sessler and some others, so it's possible that THAT particular explosion - that we still don't have details about - is the one he meant.
Anyone remember earlier when a mod called for the 'hyperbole' to die down? Doesn't seem like the suggestion really took lol
I dont think its monetization, Dent mentioned they were told they were to pretty much pretend the event didnt happen no? Basically being told to ignore the issues with connectivity. It sounds like it goes beyond simply just HDCP stuff, and more to do with who can use what content and who can't. Seems like some content publishers will get coverage, others wont. They essentially can only use B-Roll approved by the game publishers. This means they also can't really show anything unfavorable about a given title.

Look, I'm sure Albert is a nice guy in real life. He's probably swell. I don't envy his position. He even has a GAF account. But to say all is well in Redmond and have sweet dreams. Fuck off. Give me one reason why I should buy your console for $500. I am your fucking fanbase. I have bought every CoD game since two on 360. I'm done. I'm out. I know you are probably even lurking, but don't want to post for fear of getting flamed. That's fine. I don't blame you. The suits and the execs are the problem. I'm just saying don't brush this off as nothing or as GAF being GAF. I am being given the choice of two machines this November. One is playing CoD at 1080p Native and is $100 cheaper and the other is playing at 720p for $100 more.
How can you brush that off?
