Holy shit, I think I may have just woken my neighbors up laughing. Thank you sir.
To be completely honest I like albert a lot. I think he is a good poster. I follow him on twitter. As far as microsoft's messaging has gone this year albert has been good while the rest of the company fell off a cliff.
That said... what he just posted is walking around the issue. Like I said a bunch of times... this rumor has been reaaaaaaaaaaal flimsy. After this I'm feeling pretty confident.
I agree with albert that the actual numbers don't mean shit. If they can make it 720p and upscale it and it looks as good as the ps4 version... who gives a shit. It will all be the same. But this thread isn't about that. This thread is about what the resolution is. If it's 720p it's 720p. It's not "really good looking 720p" because that's not something that exists. It's just the number. The number is all this thread is about.
He says he doesn't know - which is either a lie or he shouldn't be working in the xbox division. And then he strawmans down to other issues involved in how it looks.
The rumor wasn't "CoD looks way shittier on the xbox." It was merely about the resolution. All of that said, I'm certain talk of the resolution is under the NDA so albert couldn't talk about it - specifically- if he wanted to. But him saying he doesn't know what it is.... really?
Come on.
Since when has a Microsoft,Sony or Nintendo rep revealed the native resolution of a 3rd party game?
It was so good. Like this thread.
Hold me GAF
It was so good. Like this thread.

That was originally downsized using the same algorithm before then being enlarged whilst all stemming from a PC promo bullshot.Im sure the Xbox's hardware scaler is exactly the same as the photo editing program used to scale that image...
I don't think Activision is going to jeopardize a few hundred-thousand CoD:G/XB1 Pre-orders by telling everyone that the XB1 version is inferior - not until after the orders start processing anyway...
Not too mention that switching from the XB1 version to the PS4 is impossible now since there are no more PS4 consoles left to Pre-Order. You got three options basically:
1. Stick with it, despite it's unconfirmed inferiority
2. Cancel it out right and don't look back
3. Cancel and just get the PC version
Activision will make sure it holds its cards close to it's vest if it's bluffing with 720p cards, to prevent Pre-Order cancellations. Because if it's not bluffing, the 1080p cards would already be on the table.
Question: Have the Next-Gen versions gone GOLD yet? If so, then what's the resolutions? Can't fiddle screen resolution after it's gold, can you?
Probably cause he likes Barry Allen.How can someone who loves the flash be so wrong?
when cheapy d is on twitter in full defense force ,in that precise moment i realize the xbox one is 720p
always bet on cheapy d being wrong..you will never fail

Cloud upscaling. The new innovation from Xbox. Upscales all resolutions to 1080p using the cloud to render it all.
What do you suggest he does? Honest question. It's easy for me to ridicule his crazy spin but I'm anonymous on the internet. Tomorrow I will wake up and go to work. Odd as it is this dude is at work. He says he's not but he knows he is. He can't hide behind a funny name and "secret sources" (get it? Meh.) we already know who he is. The shit is probably 720p and there's not much he can do. Probably can't even ignore it because, like I said he's at work. This is part of what he does. Wow, just realized how fucked up that job is! 8 years of this, my God lol.
720p upscaled vs 1080p native should be pretty obvious on a large 1080p TV...?
If someone has seen both running, then it should be readily apparent if they are at different resolutions.

Ok, so it's 720p.
There's no way in hell that you saw it running and couldn't tell the resolution. And you know that seeing the game running vs watching videos online isn't in the same league.
The upscaler you put in is very good, I'm sure. Also, don't send anyone out to kill me. Thanks.

Come on.
Has there been a generation yet where one system is so far ahead of the competitor consoles? Playstation vs. N64? PS2 vs. Xbox vs. Gamecube?
Maybe the best comparison would be Dreamcast vs. Competition ? I dunno ...
Here's the full video: http://youtu.be/MgslUro5MlkHoly shit, I think I may have just woken my neighbors up laughing. Thank you sir.
then again, people will judge the version based on a single number, so "who gives a shit" about the better-looking version is nowhere near out of the window. it is perfectly possible that some people out there are going to base their decisions on the difference of resolutions alone.
people like to blame the "messaging", or the pr a lot, which is unfair. pr can only do so much. how can anyone have sold a product with always-online and no-used games? how about being $100 more expensive yet having an inferior hardware spec?
pr didn't decide on those things. it's the business and technical divisions that did, so to blame a lot of what went wrong with the xbone to the "messaging" and pr is quite unfair, at least in EmptySpace's view.
um
Wii -> 360 and PS3?
edit:
Wii U -> PS4 and Xbox One?
MilkBeard said:No way. He's been accurate quite a bit. He came clean with his statement that it was kind of an iffy rumor. He correctly confirmed the Driveclub delay a few days ago.
I don't think it would do GAF or anyone justice if he was permabanned.
...besides. This thread has been one hell of a ride. I can't count the number of times I've laughed just reading this thread today.
I think mr mortimer should be banned for life if it isn't 720p.

I liked when they did a track with Steel Panther.
some nice stuff, then one mean thing.
When does the media get their consoles? It must be fairly soon.
720p is perfect balance between 640p and 900p, it's all about balance.
Probably cause he likes Barry Allen.

Stop posting.
Nobody is getting anything because Famous couldn't keep his mouth shut. Nextgen cancelled!
We're weeks from release, I don't see the point in holding anything back at this stage. Better get the news out there and deal with any fallout.
Guys, give Albert a break. I mean what else is he supposed to say? I'm sure it will be good enough for many more casual gamers who don't scrutinize graphics so much.
