Well no... they would just optimize each platform to they're respective strengths. 720p frees up resources for other stuff. I'm not saying xbone will get a better version. But maybe, just maybe certain advantages?

i thought exclusives doesn't matter this gen? also MS should have made it $1800 for the likes of you. also most games you listed can be played on PC at some time.
but didnt he
(EDIT: or she?...now i feel bad)
EDIT
i could very likely be completely wrong of where is idea came from or that it came from somewhere at all/ the interpretation of what i read - i would not consider myself a reliable source in this circumstance...but it is a question)That misleading as those chart are cpu bound not gpu.Like some others have said, 125% more pixels does not equate to a 125% performance (i.e., framerate) difference. Performance does not scale linearly with resolution increases/decreases. For example, here are some MW2 benchmarks:

The performance (i.e., framerate) difference between 1920x1080 (black bars) and 1280x720 (blue bars) is 30-40% at most.

That's bad news so CBOAT is now unreliable.
You mean WiiU and Xbone...I agree.

There's a reason it's 720p 60fps.
If they include more and better effects and detail, it wouldn't be 60fps.

To be fair if they increase the AA with that I think it will look better.

It can mean that much more performance. It depends entirely on the hardware being tested. The better the hardware, the higher the performance hit ceiling and less of an impact on performance the different resolutions have. The weaker the hardware, the more of a difference they have. That's partly why the Xbox One is struggling compared to the PS4. It's GPU has a much lower performance hit ceiling.

sorry Tabular but the only 'advantage' XB1 has is kinect, and not a lot of 3rd party multiplatform games will use it...
the PS4 simply destroys the XB1 on every metric it goes up against...
Where do those butts come from?.

i feel like an idiot i'm tired
I don't know why but this post was so sad to me. Like you have to imagine the realization that none of the big companies actually give a shit and it's crushing.
When I was a kid, they were giving away a doorknocker that had a little arrow hand that you could point to DO NOT DISTURB or DOING HOMEWORK or READING or SLEEPING with your Scholastic book order over $5. and I was like OMGGGGG IT COMES WITH A CAMERA THAT YOU LINK UP TO YOUR ROOM AND IT IS SMART ENOUGH TO KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING
I explicitly remember this. Like vividly to this day. And then you get the fucking box from that shitty fucking company and you tear it open and you're like WHERE IS THE CAMERA WHERE IS THE CAMERA WHERE WHERE and it turns out its a piece of paper manufactured in like 20 seconds
And that's when you realize Albert Pennelo thinks you're dumb.

Yep. Good point. Thanks for your response.

yes, but with weak tools its even a bigger issue now, but should improve. 3rd party ports will/should always favor PS4.
Can you change your PS4 wallpaper? What about listening to some MP3s?
I guess not every metric then...
You can't upgrade a GPU through a firmware update.

The ICE team was one of the smartest things Sony did this gen. It also helped shape many of the intelligent decisions that went into the PS4.
Microsoft would do well to have thier own ICE team.

sorry that's not remotely important, but if it helps you sleep at night go for it....
I said damn
Wallpaper and MP3's eh? Is that what it has come down to? Lol.
On a side note, Yosp is listening. Hope they add this functionality in at some point.
such crispnessIt needs to be converted to the Xbone colorspace, powered by the Magical Scaler™®
much crushness
how sad bringing some PS4 aspects that can be implemented through a firmware update. also you can listen to MP3 on PS4, it's just you have to purchase it through music unlimited. something you do with EVERYTHING on X1. so what's your point again?
Is this really what it's come down to? Oh man.
Serious question, can Xbone do either?

Dude, that doesn't even make sense. I think people buying an X1 should just accept they're buying a weaker machine and be done with it. You know what you're getting, if you still want one then all the power to you, but stop trying to argue that it's on par with the PS4, it just isn't.
I would agree, but IW isn't the only one having issues getting their games up to 1080. In fact, only Forza 5 is launching at 1080p on the X1.

Uhh, it's not like the yearly releases are from the same company. IW hasn't done a CoD game on its own since MW2. MW3 wasn't them alone and the others in between are mostly Treyarch. So 4 years between full IW lone-wolf development of CoD, 2 years between IW involvement in a CoD release.
They didn't fail on the PS4 version...

I hate to get involved in the whole console war thing, but when your argument is a the ability to do two mundane features that I can do on my phone, tablet and PC and do not effect gameplay in any way, shape or form (and also added later in a simple firmware update) it's probably time to give up.

The PS4 has better hardware at a lower price and it will have superior muliplats AND Sony first party studio games. So whats your point again?

It has come to this? It is a games console. It plays games. The metric that matters is how well it can play games. Additional features aren't metrics.
i bet PS4 can't even use USENET
Lewl. Serious?
Employees? No. They just needed 11.25B transistors.

I think people should just wait until the gameplay video comes out. All this speculation is almost useless, and really, how many people in COD's player base are going to criticize each version based on graphics? The developers knew what their fans wanted when they went with 60 fps. Now does the $100 difference in console price matter? Probably has a pretty heavy weight, especially when it is the more powerful console, but other factors include where are their friends going and how much brand loyalty do they have. People that don't have an established gaming community of friends will look at the PS4, see that it is cheaper, maybe see that it is more powerful, and chose that to play their COD and sports games on. It'll be an interesting come Spring 2014 to really see how each console is doing.
