I disagree, I also have BF4 on PS4 and while I can tell the difference between 1080p and 900p I don't think its bad, Its "enough" imo. But I don't own an xbone so thats not going to be an issue for me with this game!
Yeah, the standard 1.2GB of vRAM nVidia put on the 570. Well, good to know, maybe they won't have to make to many scrifices on console then.
one of the bigger issues with 2033 was always framebuffer/RAM size, not GPU horsepower. Thanks to 5GB GDDR5 The biggest obstacle for the game is overcome.
Double standards and all that.
Hmm, going to keep an eye out for this game.
But damn, another sub-1080p title for the XBO?
If the PS4 wasn't pumping out better performance, I'd say "good enough...", but since it is, it's not good. I guess this is the norm for the XBO. MSFT better have some awesome exclusives, otherwise there's no real reason to own an XBO as a gamer.

Both sides (major PS and Xbox fans) have flipped flopped in many ways from last gen TBH.
Maybe they like proclaiming they achieved 1080p60 on PS4, and they can't not disclose what they did with the XB1 version as everyone will keep asking them after that.

Yikes.
Not super surprised, but still kind of.
Not sure how that worked.
anyway, never played these games, heard they were good. May pick it up for that Quad.

It's also been less than a year. I'm a PS4 person but even I have common sense.
you ever think it was because the PS3 was touted as being more powerful than the 360?
also as others have pointed out, this is the first gen I've seen really hardcore resolution battles and they seem to be fueled by PS4 owners.
This. It's a little baffling to be honest.

That's what really gets me, everyone made such a big deal about the relatively small differences between Ps3 and 360 (including the press), yet now an actually noticeable and rather large difference is just brushed aside as okay. That double standard is just too much.
It's shouldn't be just "okay". The X1 should be at least on par with the PS4 if it aims to directly compete. Then again, the Wii U is also a next gen console so yea.
As long as MS is able to get all their exclusives up to 1080p, I'll be fine since it's going to be an exclusive box for me anyways, but there's still no excuse, especially when MS wants the same amount of money for their hardware-wise inferior console.
That would be silly. There are plenty of 1080p Xbox games.

If it's a locked 60, or even locked 60 with a few dips, that's pretty impressive. I'm interested to see some gameplay.
I have Metro 2033 on Steam but never got around to playing it. Maybe I should do that.

Regarding the watch, in 2033 there is a button to explicitly bring your watch up to your face (the watch is also superior in that it includes not just how much time is left on your current filter but how much aggregate filter time you have left). In LL, no such button exists and with certain weapons/certain gear, it was hard to see the watch clearly.
Regarding inventory, this is undoubtedly referring to Ranger mode, a mode in which the HUD is disabled. This mode also prevented the player from being able to see the current status of his inventory, meaning either you mentally tracked your filters/ammo/etc, or you were shit out of luck.

What's the point in keep it a secret? They know the news will get out sooner or later, so you might as well be up front and honest with your customers.
I would say these differences are actually getting a lot more coverage today than they ever did during the 360/PS3 era. Back then only Digital Foundry and a couple smaller sites would bother reporting on this stuff for the most part. Now it seems like most sites are reporting on these resolution disparities.

lol!
That's right and wrong.
XBOne is weaker than the PS4, yes.
Theoretically, if we take the lowest common performance denominator of both consoles, both could pull off 1080p/60 for these games. Some of them are last-gen games.
But every developer seems to encounter the same issues with Xbone.
Maybe the libraries suck, requiring too much lower level work that the developers have no budget for. Or some other inherent issue in the design itself (the multiple OSes, ...) .
Wonder if I can dig up some GDC stuff about that.

X1<<<<ME>>>>>>ps4
we're in may and multiplats continue to look better on PS4
X1<<<<<ME>>>>>PS4
I'am still under the belief that the games coming out now have been deved using old SDK on X1.
I want to wait until this fall where next gen multiplats hits, COD:KEVIN SPACEY, ASS:UNITY and EVOLVE.In my eyes if Microsoft have not got there SDK's up to scratch after a year then they never will (or they already where and its just a weaker console).
If microsoft blow me away this E3 it may be there saving grace, but with every inferior multiplat they are pushing me away.

I guess I must have been pretty oblivious last generation, because I don't really remember that huge a deal being made of those minor differences most of the time. There were some things I remember, like the fact that Halo 3 was sub-HD, or some pretty heated arguments about whether the PS3 version of GTA3 or the 360 version of GTA3 looked better, but the kinds of continual, repetitive, chest-beating that some people seem to recall? I guess I wasn't posting in the right places at the right time.
No. The majority of games on the system are still 1080p.
Just seems like more due to there being a difference in many of the "AAA" action games that get a lot of attention.
I wouldn't say the majority of games on Xbox One are 1080p.
In what universe?
Anything over half is majority for his argument.

Yea, I can definitely tell I wasn't around the block. I was always under the impression PS3 was the graphic king. Hell, it just having a blu ray player made me come to the conclusion it just had to be the more power system.

Why would anyone be pissed off about it? It might be disappointing for sure, but on here pretty much everyone knew the hardware wasn't as good as the PS4 and generally outside of places like this no-one really cares or can tell the difference between resolutions anyway. What I find most odd is that there seems to be many who don't see games as their primary reason for owning a console but hardware specs, it will always baffle me. Why an allegiance to a single console when it means you'll be missing out on so many great games?
please explain.
This one. The majority of games on the system are 1080p. Sports, platformers, and racers make up a large portion of the Xbox One library. Plus, a few of the action games DO run in 1080p.

More like, "anything over half is the definition of the word majority".

I haven't counted up the numbers yet, but it wouldn't surprise me if it were true.
Maybe earlier at least with the pc version there will be an early release and some things are already there in the current api

"Forza Motorsport 5 is an example of a game that pushes the Xbox One to the limit with its fast-paced photorealistic racing experience. Under the hood, Forza achieves this by using the efficient low-level APIs already available on Xbox One today. Traditionally this level of efficiency was only available on console now, Direct3D 12, even in an alpha state, brings this efficiency to PC and Phone as well. By porting their Xbox One Direct3D 11.X core rendering engine to use Direct3D 12 on PC, Turn 10 was able to bring that console-level efficiency to their PC tech demo."
Oh I get that, I am just saying.
I hope you never bougt a game before the PS4 came out.
They were almost unplayable ...
In the universe where he counts Nutjitsu.
I personally think it's a really, really silly argument to make, but it's one he makes nonetheless in every single thread where it comes up.

I'm so on board for this game on PS4, I actually held off on the PS3 version of Last Light for the chance of getting it in 1080p on the new consoles.

Quick count: 14 < 1080p. 17 = 1080p.
So there are more 1080p games (including announced) than not.
Yea i found that a great idea to more than likely mean they could sell more if people don't want to pay for both due to plying one of them...i have not played any so will be picking up both and would feel like its a good deal still as other remasters only include one game for the same price this includes two.
