Yeah, If you want to see resolution differences made really obvious look at a scene with detailed objects at a good distance. I was looking at these pics before wario posted the comparison gif, and wondering how the two could be so diffrerent. The xbox version seems pretty close to current gen. Not that the ps4 version is incredible, but at least it feels like something I haven't seen on a console before.

Oh, absolutely. Bayonetta is a famous example, running at vastly higher framerates with far sharper textures on Xbox 360. Not that the rare case of quick and dirty port the other way faired much better; FFXIII has 50% more pixels on PS3 than 360, and the pre-rendered content is heavily compressed on 360 as well.

I don't really see a difference in that gif, Is there something I'm missing?
I haven't watched the IGN footage, but it definitely looked like the PS4 has some clearer blacks going on in the 5 minutes or so of footage, but not much else. Apparently the IGN multiplayer footage is the tell-all?

1st party efforts will likely look gorgeous on both platforms.

Oh wow, had no idea since I beat it on PC. 540p makes me cringe, yikes.

Can You Imagine What SureAI Is Going To Do With Garfield?
Aw ok. So, with that while they both look the same the PS4's black will show the details - better shadowing and whatnot I suppose.
Now, I've always noticed when most 360 and PS3 games were compared, the PS3's always looked more washed out, soft and/or blurry. So is what you mention the same case with the 360/PS3 comparisons or is that a different beast all together?
Jesus what the fuck is this a joke that has to be 360 footage I cannot honestly fathom how Dice and MS went this wrong.Oh man that multiplayer footage...holy CRAP what happened to the XB1?
Zero motion blur too in multi for XB1.

"Something something we won't see the difference in multi platform games something something developers will develop for the lowest common specs something something."
Better than BF4.
No offense to Dice, but Halo isn't going to do 64 player battles with dynamic destruction... that allows 343 to throw a LOT more horsepower behind other stuff... like graphics.

Xbox forgot to install the high res texture packs right guys ? right... ?
Im a massive fan of the xbox and either way im taking a wait and see approach on both these consoles but even i can see that the xbox is lagging way behind the ps4.
If this is just the start of the gap between the 2 it will only get worse.

I'm not sure if I want to say that looks like Cod4 or Cod4 Reflex. The rest of the footage didn't look quite as bad, but it's still rough.
The only tears are your own fanboy tears.
It is, check the D-pad icon.

has calmed down a bit.
Yep, Xbox one version is the most appealing to my eyes. Definitely the version I would pick in a blind test.

wowThe difference between textures is mind-boggling
Luckily, the amount of tears is the same in both versions

Colors on a screen are made up of RGB (Red, Green, Blue).
Each color has a value from 0-255 (off, to fully on). Making up 256 colors for each value, giving us 16,777,216 opaque colors... With those colors we get our pictures.
Ok, so devices can output in two RGB modes.
There is limited, which is almost every TV uses until HD TV's came around:
16-236
and Full Range RGB which have always been supported by monitors.
Because the XO version is "limited" the high end whites and low blacks get chopped off. So basically you have a less range of colors making variations in the spectrum become more apparent and vibrant.
If we take the PS4 full range footage and limit it, it'll give us the same effect.
No worries though, if you have a TV or monitor with full range, you can take advantage of the extra colors that you have. If not, PS4 will have a setting to "limit" it like the Xbox.
Calm down... I'm just amused with some if the superior attitudes around here. I'm actually chuckling at me being quoted.
I'm gonna check out the IGN vid when my wife gets off the laptop.

Yes, the same happened with 360 and PS3. Sony never bothered to artificially enhance the picture in this way. And I don't think 360 had Full RGB but don't quote me on that.

The Xbox One version has more prominent aliasing, which is to be expected. It doesn't look bad at all though, at least not to me. The IGN multiplayer footage seems like the best comparison at the moment.

This probably shows the largest difference yet it's not in OP. C'mon Newman.

I'm going to guess that it will look amazing, and will be much smarter at hiding any sacrifices made under the hood to achieve its framerate and resolution than any of these first wave titles.
That said, exclusives are where the games truly shine and PS4 exclusives will put the pressure on 343 to deliver big time.

I don't see what you did there, because I'm still wearing the blindfold.

Because in their side-by-side video, one looks like meh compared to the other? Of course, the video is playing at like 10fps. Look, I don't doubt them. The PS4 version has better performance. Better AA, HBAO, better motion blur, better from rate, etc.
I'm just really, really fucking curious why, if they are going to do a side by side video and post it on Youtube, why they wouldn't calibrate their TV's or monitors. I'm sorry, the PC and PS4 version look washed out. Oh and lol, guy is talking about hair textures. Look at those hair textures. That's not some shit like the contrast is too high or the brightness is too high. They look like two different images. I'm not a fanboy. I'll probably end up owning both systems. I have a PS4 pre-ordered. I'm just shocked that I think that XO version looks better. That's all.

The PS4 multiplayer looks better, but at least put up a decent screen cap when there is a decent source to get one from. You can easily get an image of the PS4 looking just as awful due to compression of the video.

Saw OP videos, wondered why PS4 version was so washed out, gamma and colour off. Come to end of thread and read that it was DF's horrible capture job, all is well. Preorder uncancelled.

The people who keep pointing to that image with the black man's "hair textures" do realise that the PC version looks like the PS4's and what you're seeing is the result of limited color depth and sharpening... right?
I thought you were onto something interesting at first as well, but if you look at the actual iconography of the UI element it is clearly a PlayStation dpad on the right
Interesting catch though, maybe some reviewers were messing with the UI settings or something.

But all they have is a 7790@850 Mhz to work with.. I dont think it is due to lack of Engineering like cell processor. GPU doesnt have enough muscle power.
The Darkness never came to PC. Maybe you're confusing it with The Darkness II.
