RUMOUR: Xbox One version of Call of Duty: Ghosts is 720p, PS4 version is 1080p?

Also, why the fuck not, Titanfall has been rumored to be targeting 720p on the xbox one as well. I'm sure that probably came up in this thread already by someone... but, yeah, that rumor seems more solid than this CoD one.

Doesn't MS requires games on their platforms to not look and/or perform significantly worse than the competitors (in case of same-time release)? If the XBone version is 720p, it's likely the PS4 version will be nerfed to make MS happy.

This is not true.

I recall Digital Foundry speculating 900p from E3 footage. Of course that may not have been on final hardware, etc.

I dont know guys, the rumour is based off a guess. Not exactly something i would bet on as Mort said.

I think we are all getting ahead of our selves.

That game also looks current gen. Pretty sad performance if true.

Well yea, sort of but its excuse is its running on the source engine which still sort of holds up (Portal 2, IMO).

Still, since its Source it should be running flawless and if they need to tone it down to 720p the XB1 has some serious issues.

Ok given this rumor is true and pushing aside the question of wtf MS has been doing these past years to be so behind Sony, will this even matter in the grand scheme of things to the general public?
Maybe not immediately but in the long-term yes. This isn't just about pixels.

Ok.

Well, fuck being coy, obviously this is the rumor I heard. It's really thin, guys. Really thin. I want two sources on anything I post here or talk about on my podcast but this I really, really wanted two sources on. And there's a few wrinkles to it as well which are interesting (if they are true). I just cannot say whether it's true or not and this is obviously a huge fucking deal. Sales are at stake. At this point I wouldn't be surprised if MS put a goddamn hit out on me.

Anyway, this is the rumor. And it's thin. It's fucking thin. To be completely honest I don't believe it. I mean... it's just weird. Anyway - supposedly Activision is doing a controlled environment review process that only huge ass games can get away with. What I heard was you got to chose a version.... either xbox one or PS4 and you didn't get to see the other one. You then go in and play it at their setup for a certain number of hours and that's it. Someone who saw the Xbox one version claims it's 720p.

Did this person count pixels? Is this known info they are telling people? Is it upscaled? I don't know the answers to any of these questions. It doesn't even make sense to me... CoD is a pretty shitty looking game, why in the hell could it not run at 1080p? I feel like if they took the time they could get the 360 version at 1080p if they wanted to... the engine is older than me. But, that's what was said.

It's impossible to get a second source because everyone is, obviously, under NDA. No one wants to get blacklisted by Activision.


And now for my opinion....

Driveclub being delayed I was pretty damn certain on. It wasn't a flimsy rumor like this. But the one thing that I'm noticing here is that the non-responses are the same. I was nervous about the driveclub thing because I was out here by myself with some random ass site I never heard of (kudos to them for being right though) and if the info ended up being wrong I was going to look like a huge asshole. Each non-answer given made me feel better about being right.

If the game is running at 1080p there's no reason to give non-answers. That's not info you want to hide. So looking at it from this angle - the rumor exists and non answers are given - I feel like that gives credence to the rumor.

But... but... but...! I've been right about a lot of shit. I should have never teased this because this rumor is fucking flimsy. More flimsy than PS4 in October which the entire internet believed. I'm not saying it's true. I expect 900p to be honest. That's a guess. I don't know. I do know there is a lot of chatter about the xbox struggling to hit 1080p.

Also, why the fuck not, Titanfall has been rumored to be targeting 720p on the xbox one as well. I'm sure that probably came up in this thread already by someone... but, yeah, that rumor seems more solid than this CoD one.

Now don't you feel better

I'm not going to blame this on MS but rather on IW, another poster around here said that they don't seem to be working very well these days, so I'd guess it's more likely that they're not very efficient with the new console.

Now if this were to repeat throughout other third party games, I'd be worried. Wonder if Dice was able to improve the resolution of BF4 now.

So are you saying that you still don't know shit, but you ran with it anyway?

So you're willing to just discard the word of the other insiders? Ok.
 
If true, this is megaton for sure. How many other games will follow suit? I mean, COD gets a big "meh" from me, but what if a similar thing happens to Destiny? Or the Division?

Not good, not good at all.
 
I know alot of people in this thread were never planning on buying the xbox one and are just here for the laughs, but this is concerning from someone who is planning on buying one. (me)

Would be nice is MS could comment with one of there stupid #XboxFacts saying something. sigh

Jesus dicking Christ this thread is moving fast. Not even worth trying to slog through it.

Honestly, especially after mortimer's most recent post, I'm staying purely on the sidelines for this one. Will just keep my popcorn in it's package until either official confirmation/rebuke (hah) or proper tests after the systems & game launches. Timdog meltdowns makes the rumor in itself worth it regardless. The bit about Titanfall note is kinda interesting though, considering that game is also a bit weak in the visuals department.

I personally find the rumors about the flaky OS to be more interesting/worrying right now. Wanna know more about what's the deal in that department, and if there's anything to it, how soon it'll get worked out.

The happening cometh...

All you cod trolls. Why don't you admit that infinity ward is the pink Floyd or perhaps the nickleback (all time greatest band) of our time


No, it's like the video game Tom Jones.

People go wild for it, but it just won't fucking die. Year after year it goes on, age being no barrier to it's success.
 
I'm still shocked that this game is the #1 Pre-ordered game on both Next-Gen platforms, current gen platforms and probably the PC too.

What the hell is so fun about running around on small maps Quick-Scoping everyone at close range?










Wait - are these the same fools who get Madden every year expecting it to be better than ESPN NFL 2K5 from 9 years ago? That explains it. Enjoy your arcadey killstreak-shooter.
