Good grief,

1080p30 parity redeemed.
 
Grass Gate reminds me of Mafia on PS3 when all the 360 guys mocked playstation users because mafia had several more blades of grass on the xbox. Now the tables have turned and the chickens have come home to roost!

Only time I'll be noticing grass is as I'm plowing through it with a vehicle, so idgaf. Nothing to do out there of interest compared to the city.

It is. Having solid 30 FPS is a huge plus coming from the last gen versions. And everything else also looks better.
The thing interesting in the article it's the disappointment for the use of the same polygonal model of the ps360. It seems not fit well in the overall improvement.

I notice the new grass all the time on PS4 because as I'm driving through it with my Zentorno, it's constantly poppin-in right in front of me. Actually I don't think it's the grass popping in, but the shadows from the grass. It's really distracting.

ouch xbox missing grass. Might be worst than image quality. Remind me of last gen, whereas some objects or textures are difference.

The gap is getting bigger.

Little things like these made me glad to have a 360 last gen, similarly I prefer having a PS4.

Maybe later I will own other consoles.

The version your friends play at. I love the DS4 functions, like the red and blue flashing LED when youre chased by the cops, touchscreen and speaker integration. But I would go where my friends are.
Thank god for duct tape and the ability to mute the speaker.

Mordor also had this issue, no? Or was that PC only? Maxed PC Mordor has the best foliage I have ever seen in a game.

edit: Also I really have the impression there is a problem with the gamma setting on PS4.
 
There isn't such a thing as a "crushed black filter" for less than 1080p images!! It's dodgy gamma setting of the XB1 that have to be countermeasured by devs.

Enjoying the foliage and god-rays too. I spent time just walking around looking at things.

The God Rays are nice. Not sure why they couldn't get them in Far Cry 4, but its still a great looking game none the less.



Was a pretty cool morning trying both GTAV and Far Cry 4 and both of them using fur shaders for all the animals, and having dense foliage instead of grass textures.


I feel like its a small thing, but something we have been wanting to be common place for over a generation.

this site tells a different story..




http://gearnuke.com/gta-v-ps4-vs-xbo-1080p-direct-feed-image-comparison/

here the Xbox One looks foggy as hell ... wtf is up with this..?

You just blew up a safe. Is there no smoke lingering in the scene on PS4?

If you just stand around, does it clear?

My X1 build isn't washed out like that...I do remember a lot of haze/smoke in that room though.

Edit**

Just checked and I recorded that scene. There's a ton of smoke in the room. My colors aren't as washed out, but the room is still smoldering on X1.



Maybe it's a good idea not to come to conclusions if one doesn't even know what is happening in a scene? ;)

No surprises in how the game looks or performs. Never expected a whole new engine. A little curious about how they got one version but not the other, but so many possible reasons not going to speculate.
 
Fake. The ratio on map is all wrong. Left screen looks like it's from 360.

Who made this comparison?

Still an obvious fake comparison. PS4 version is suffering from pop-in issue as well it's not a God-spec machine. The difference between the 2 systems hasn't been huge as Sony fans would've liked.

Theoretical performance doesn't mean jack when we have concrete evidence of real time performance on many cross platform games.

Sony fans are trying way too hard to make it look like PS4 is 2x better than X1 when it really isn't. Making fake comparisons to make that true doesn't really help either. Now that's just sad.

I stand corrected. Difference is minuscule.

You won't find four consecutive posts on GAF that's better than this.
