I think we are really under estimating MS here guys. I’m not dismissing raw performance. I’m stating – as I have stated from the beginning – that the performance delta between the two platforms is not as great as the raw numbers lead the average consumer to believe. Just because you have a 125% increase in pixels doesn't mean the PS4 version will look 125% better. There are things about XB1's system architecture not fully understood, secret sauces whose recipes are yet to be comprehended that bring more balance to the console.

I mean surely people DO understand that Microsoft has some of the smartest graphics programmers IN THE WORLD. They CREATED DirectX, the standard API’s that everyone programs against. So while people laude Sony for their HW skills, do you really think MS don’t know how to build a system optimized for maximizing graphics for programmers? Seriously? There is no way they are giving up a 125%+ advantage to Sony. And ANYONE who has seen both systems running could say there are great looking games on both systems. If there was really huge performance difference – it would be obvious.

I will get a ton of hate for saying this – but it’s been the same EVERY generation. Sony claims more power, they did it with Cell, they did it with Emotion Engine, and they are doing it again with so called GDDR5. And, in the end, games on MS's system looked the same or better.

Who was it that originally posted this?

Infinity Ward just shot themselves in the foot.

I don't know how much the rest of you know about Call of Duty culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in Battlefield where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Call of Duty, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.

What this means is the Call of Duty userbase, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase Ghosts for either system, nor will they purchase any of Infinity Ward's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Infinity Ward has alienated an entire market with this move.

Infinity Ward, publicly apologize and upgrade the Xbox One version of Ghosts to 1080p or you can kiss your business goodbye.

lol! I understood this reference.

yes and again, since the game still looks like complete garbage, let us voice our surprise/schadenfreude at pseudo IW for it:p

We can come in here and mock IW , it does not have to be all system wars all the time (as if you 'll ever see me defend either console)

Where does the game look like garbage ? Any game can have pictures taken that don't favor it. The fact the engine is old does not mean the game necessarily looks like garbage.

Have we seen the actual single player running on PS4 ? It is common sense the single player will outclass the mp as always with CoD.

You are talking about old games. Yes, I would expect the Xbone to run BLOPS2 without any issues at 1080p.

You should take a peek at the system requirements for the PC version of Ghosts. They are not the same as the requirements for BLOPS2. The engine has been reworked in ways that have had a massive impact on required hardware.

Yeah, they bloated that shit up. [Tinfoil]On request of AMD and Nvidia since PC users wouldn't have any incentive to upgrade otherwise[/Tinfoil]. Worse graphics than Crysis1, worse AI than Crysis1 (at least safe to assume) and smaller/less complex levels than Crysis1 (also safe to assume, looking at the previous games) but at the same time smoking its System Requirements. Guess those scripted explosions and Fish AI use up a lot of VRAM and processing power...
 
I feel this is going to be the commonplace all throughout next gen; Lower resolutions for the Xbone versions of multiplats.

Wow, is your ass leaking? ........ You just dumped a big pile of shit in the form of this post.


Better GPU and better memory, better graphical performance ...... as witnessed in BF4 and now CoD Ghosts.

You fell for it son.

After everything that has happened its apparent now that Albert really was just PR'ing the whole time he's been here.

Of course. If he engaged in actual discourse and didn't try to constantly falsify and spin information and told it like it really is - I might have more respect for him. Quite pitiful, IMO.

I don't even know why he posts on this forum if he's just going to spin shit like that.

I don't mind that he's here, just wish he would keep it real while he's here.

I think most people will notice the difference between 720p and 1080p especially playing CoD mp for countless hours.

People pay $200 for headsets to get a slight advantage for sound. These same people probably care about paying $100 LESS to be able to tell if that clump of pixels is a plant or an enemy.

I've already heard it on several podcasts

I really dont know who they think they are talking to.... Trying to tell hardcore gamers that there is no difference between 720p and 1080p. I mean jesus, by trying to pull that, they are broadly announcing how incredibly STUPID they think the average gamer is. Preposterous.
