Wow
Xbox still pushing dem crushing blacks.
Prefer the image consistency of PS4 here.

Mislabeled? The ground textures are gone/blurry on the lower pic.XBO:
PS4:
Anyhow, the differences are tiny and I'd say that it'll be more important to see current gen vs next gen Face Offs this generation if this is the "big" and "twice as good" differences we're going to see between the hd twins. Especially if neither is guaranteed to get 1080p res.

Glad to see the differences are not hugely different one way or the other. Go where the games you want are, that is really all these machines are for anyways.

I'm liking the XB1's textures in some scenes but the contrast is just too much
they went full retard with the contrast

Watch Jack Frags Xbox One singleplayer footage if you wanna see what it actually looks like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cD_F0jTSac
No fucking clue what's up with DF.

This is something you can easily "fix" for yourself. Turn up the contrast on your TV.
PS4 version doesn't look washed out, it only looks that way because the Xbox One version is oversaturated. Seriously, it looks too shiny like some sort of polished toy.

Go at an electronics store, and check the settings of those 'vivid beautiful night scenes with amazing colour pop' that you cannot, for some reason, replicate on your own TV.
Nobody watches TVs with their contrast settings upped to a 100.
Looks like Jack did some post processing.

In this thread, I've learned that people compare static images with different gamma settings and jump to conclusions. Watch the comparison videos. It is clearly evident that PS4 looks significantly better (I.e., closer to the pc baseline). X1 doesn't look terrible overall, but between the insane shimmering, terrible aliasing, lower/inconsistent framerate, lower native res, crushed blacks, and oversharpening filters, it seems PS4 is the easy choice in terms of console versions.
As expected...

Look at the towers in the background between the two shots!
Wow, aliasing is destroying detail in the Xbox shot.
I wonder why the PS4 version looks clamped? Or doesn't have the super whites like on the XO version. It's most apparent in this pic, when looking at the sun. As if the sun is dimmed, and not pure white, like in the XO clip. That is the most notiecable difference to me. Or perhaps it is from the XO version just having cranked contrast. But I would hope both versions have the same white point. regardless.
sorry if this has already been discussed.
Otherwise, yeah XO looks more crisp, except PS4 looks much sharper or better when looking at thin lines, like electrical lines or steal beams in the distance. Obviously an advantage of the resolution bump.

XB1 version looks like it's running on the "Vivid" setting on a TV

I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.
Guerrilla also has the advantage of optimizing on one platform in one generation, not multiple platforms over two different generations of hardware.

Why does the PS4 version looks blurrier while having better resolution?, FXAA?

I doubt it. The top is jaggy city. It's strange either way. They look like the same setting...different time frame.

But what does Digital Foundry have to do with Microsoft or Sony? I mean, again, I have a PS4 pre-ordered, but I'm not blind. I mean I'm reading their analysis saying that the PS4 one is better, but I watch the video, screen shots and everything and the PS4 version looks washed out to hell. Christ, even the textures on the XO version look better from these screen shots. If you told me the PS4 version was actually the 720p one and the XO version was the 1080p one I'd believe you. How is that possible if the PS4 version is running at a higher resolution?
No this needs to stop. There is CLEARLY a DIFFERENCE. No way around it the receipts are right in front of you
Digital Foundry needs to be called out on this. This is just absolute deception.

...Meanwhile, in Killzone Shadow Fall...MULTIPLAYER...
Is that Haze?
really enjoying the shit out of this PS4 Paracel Storm footage that got posted awhile ago
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Objaswg-Rw
It'll be interesting to see the same map on XB1, but more interestingly, how the water, waves and warship smash-up compares with running it on a high-end PC that has a lot more GPU compute power for the storm, wind, waves and particles.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
My Take Aways
1) PS4 clearly has a hardware advantage
2) Xbone not only lacks in resolution but also in effects
3) Despite the hype BF4 isn't exactly top tier graphics wise
4) Killzone looks a metric fuck ton better than both CoD and BF
5) I'm EXTREMELY worried about both systems seeing a game like BF4 not doing 1080p out of the gate and still having fps drops everywhere.

Don't know why the Jack Frags thread was killed, but he's posting some wicked footage on his YouTube channel.
He posted a ton of PS4 multiplayer, now he's getting into PS4 single player.

His impressions video will be up later tonight too. But here's a preview:
Wow, multi in this game looks so much more interesting and fun than what I watched of Killzone. I dont want two FPS at launch. Thanks for the link.
bingo bingo bingo....
take a look at the shots here...which one of the three doesnt belong??...in each and every shot (except for the one getting out of the elevator where the white stripe on the couch/chairs is missing on the PS4) the PS4 is WAAAAAAY closer to what the PC version looks like....the PC looking even more "washed out" (ie: more accurate) than the PS4 in some shots...
unless we are going to argue the Xbone looks better than the PC version...
You are paying 100 dollars more for that sharpness.
Yeah, it's a great video.
This thread is moving a mile a minute but this post is such thinly veiled fanboy bullshit I can't let it go.
You specifically picked out the second the frame rate was the biggest in difference, and not a few seconds beforehand where the PS4 was 38 against the xbox at 34 or the second after where it dips to 44 vs. the xbox one at 42. It has a clear frame and aliasing advantage, but jeez man.
As for the crushed blacks, the xbox shot is IN A SHADOW. He's covered by something. Within the next few seconds he walks out, you see it pass, and he's out in the light again. Shown in action here:
But of course you know that, you just scoped the footage. I don't even want to get into a tech discussion but horsehit like your post just muddies the water. Disgusting and pathetic.
What about this shot where you can't even see any detail on the gun at all?
The capture is at the exact same spot in both versions, and there isn't any combat. Explain this.

So PS4 version has >50% more pixel output, higher framerate, better anti aliasing and has some effects that are missing on the Xbox One version like AO.
That's a bigger difference than most multiplats last gen. I didn't expect it to be that big actually, but the majority of people wont be able to notice these differences and the Xbox One version isn't disastrous or anything, it's perfectly playable as was always going to be the case.
Plus i'm hugely disappointed the PS4 version isn't 1080p although Jack Frags footage on PS4 does look really good. I think I'll pick up just Killzone day 1 and if the MP is a disappointment like KZ3 I'll switch to BF4.
oh and:
yeah about that...

Insane For Sony
Do you realize what the XB1 version of the game will look like on TVs which have sharpening turned up? Open any other 720p game screenshot, apply Photoshop Sharpen filter *twice*, then scale it up to 1080p. That's how.

Oh before I forget, Albert where's GAF's apology?
In all seriousness the framerate is p bad on the xbox for a launch game. Disappointed in the PS4 being 900p but I'm getting it on the PC anyhow.

Agreed. I will own both (X1 first) so I'm glad they're pretty close. Not sure I want to even see where this thread ends up in the morning.

Baha, the power of the-
Damn.
The reality of 720p/missing clouds replaced by heavy crushed blacks makes me sad. Both consoles seem to be doing different things right, here's hoping things get smoother technically as we get closer to launch.

OK so despite the colors the PS4 version is above in both resolution and framerate. That's what we should be paying more attention to than anything.
I made a gif for you, look at the gun detail again.
XBONE MODE = CRUSHED BLACKS
(As for the fps difference, I just highlighted one bit, didnt say the PS4 kept that deficit all through. Overall the PS4 still holds a better rate despite pushing more pixels and details on the screen)
It does have crushed blacks on the footage all over the place, but they're moving different spots there(think this is around :41-44, yeah?), look at :45-48. The xbox one footage is being shrouded by something as he walks backwards and has nothing to do with the explosion. See 38 seconds for just the PS4 one to be pitch black.
Alot of the comparison tool images show a distinct difference between the PS4 and xbone, but the PS4 and computer images make it seem like they took the PC version and stripped it down a bit and said "good enough!" for the PS4 version. So it occupies a weird space visually.
The increased contrast and and lowered brightness on the xbone certainly makes it look cleaner in the nighttime with controlled lighting, but watching the vids it really starts to affect the scenes occuring during the day time. To the point that you ask if this isn' BF4 for the 360.

Sounds to me like someone doesn't know what an accurate gamma curve is.

Okay I've skimmed the thread. Lots of folks have taken hyperbole pills. The differences between these console versions are being completely exaggerated.
