When I played Ghosts at Eurogamer, it was on Xbox One and was definitely 1080p. The clarity was superb.

Because even though Microsoft say it isn't a big deal, the difference between 720 and 1080 for a game is very important.
No. Sorry Buddy.

interesting. welp, shouldn't be too hard to get it to 1080 on x1 right? i'm assuming they just need to wait for MS to update tools or find better ways to use the architecture.
yeah but this is an activision mandate, not MS, no?

I realise it could have been the PC version with an Xbox One controller, but it was the sharpest looking game I saw, image quality wise. Having played Black Ops 2 only a couple hours earlier, the difference was night and day.

How would he know. Clearly he is only aware of what resolutions first party games are running at on the system.
You'd played on a PC.
All the more reason that you played on a PC.
I'll give you a clue, the XB1 version hasn't been shown.

Darn, I knew it looked too good to be true. Apologies for my misinformation.
Likely yes, but clearly Activision find it important.

i think Burnout on PS3 got a resolution rise to 1080i after release via patch
"a lot of the time" apparently, after dialling the graphics back a bit. I'm not aware of any high res videos showing the two in multiplayer side by side.
News flash to you, BF4 and KZ:SF are miles away better looking than Ghosts (PS4).
All are running 60fps and 1080p.
What's CoD:Ghosts excuse ?
also, obligatory:
You should probably know that CoD/BF also only run at 60fps "a lot of the time" Also the graphics are not dialled back, there are simply less set pieces and smaller maps as single player is not a corridor campaign like others.
Tools will get better which in turn will provide small gains as we along, but Microsoft's hardware and design decisions are what has led to this, and it's not a case of the architecture is difficult to program for, it's purely down to the brute force of the console. Devs will have to make more compromises to obtain 1080p and will often take the decision to lower the resolution to maintain as much graphic parity to the PS4.

Where did you get that from?
A lot of the time is also true of CoD, I don't know what 'dialing' back you're referring to, I've played it, it looks massively better than CoD.

I am dying here lol.
Considering his job, easy. Call Bobby, hey Bobby i'm getting a little shit on GAF. What res is Ghosts, Bobby says ah sure Albie its 1080p 60fps.
Problem over. post on gaf everyone happy. The console war continues.
But Bobby says 720p 60fps.
Albie goes on twitter "I've seen COD: Ghosts running on Xbox One. It looks f'n amazing. Wait for real footage, then judge for yourself."
ltdr: its an easy answer to find if they wanted too, regardless of the answer.
That exact animation happens in the killzone multiplayer video in that other thread.News flash to you, BF4 and KZ:SF are miles away better looking than Ghosts (PS4).
All are running 60fps and 1080p.

Apparently it's an issue with how the ESRAM is set up, and it really not being big enough to easily do 1080p
A GTX 560 is much faster than the GPU in the X1.
I guarantee you I can find some similarly hilarious error in any game you care to mention.
I'm reserving judgement on BF4 until I *actually see it* running at a solid 60. I'm not sure I believe they will achieve it, while I know CoD will definitely be a solid 60, it always is. It's their absolute determination to retain 60fps regardless of other factors which made me a fan of the series.
Aside from that lets pretend for a moment that KZ and BF4 do end up being locked at 60 (for all practical purposes) - even if they look better, which they may well do, that doesn't automatically mean something else looks 'shit'.
I'm pretty much writing it off as the standard anti-CoD rhetoric at the moment, because what I see in the screenshots makes Ghosts look nice and easy to look at, easy to see what's in the distance and so on, and really that's what matters.
I'm intending to buy KZ and borrow BF4 from a friend, maybe my opinion will change then.

What a lovely video. From now on, I'm going to follow this entire 720p vs. 1080p controversy in her voice.
It never is....Blops 2 dipped to the 30's on PS3 and 40's on XB1.

I also played ghosts at the eurogamer expo in September and although I could not actually see xbox ones on display, xbox one controllers were used though
As for the graphics they looked about 20% better than the last COD I played which was MW3, the graphics were nothing special at all

Incorrect, and the performance is very well documented. CoD does not maintain 60fps at all times, nor does KZ:SF, nor will BF4.
Quite right, CoD looks shit, but it's nothing to do with KZ:SF looking good.
You're wrong. Personally, this is the first CoD I'm thinking of getting back into since MW2.
I'm pretty much writing off the people saying it looks good as being optically challenged, personally.
The glitch itself is not entirely the issue, look at the texture. Is that good enough to you? if yes, then you should probably buy the PS3/360 version since it will probably look the same.
also, CoD hitting a rock solid 60 ? what CoD have you played that have a locked 60 fps ?
Thos 3 FPS will never be locked at 60. Dips are expected and will happen.

Yea, wishful thinking with that, buddy. Especially on a $400 console.
Good luck with that.
Personally, I hope that won't happen. Depending on the genre, I'd rather have more eye candy.
The first thought thatt came to my mind when i saw the title of this thread.
Crazily enough, it's more likely than on a $500 console.
But games will never all be 60fps, it's a design decision, you can always turn up the graphics and in a lot of genre's it's worth it.

I see no reason why not. Compute hasn't been heavily used yet and the games we are seeing are 1st generation games. KZS looks incredible and runs at 1080p/60fps in multiplayer and 35-40fps in singleplayer. It's no stretch what so ever to assume we will be getting 1080p/60fps with all the bells and whistles on the PS4 when 2nd and 3rd generation games release.
Of course it's capable of putting out 1080p, PS3 and 360 are also. But at what graphical fidelity, that is the question. If IW decides to go for 720p on 1 and 1080p on PS4 that is a pretty big statement. Considering the power difference, it's not surprising though. Hard to believe that there are still people out there thinking that the consoles are on par.

If it's truly 720 on Xbox one it says a whole more about the game developer than the hardware here. This game is pushing nothing graphically that's very impressive.
GribbleGrunger

No it doesn't. The fact that this game ISN'T a graphical masterpiece and they're clearly having trouble reaching 1080p on the X1, is an indication that the PS4 is more powerful.
Joke post?
How about Killer Instinct and Powerstar golf? Also 720p with not much going on. It's not IW that is slacking here.

Well duh, KS:SF is exclusive to PS4 where COD and BF aren't.

But the same developer got the game to 1080p on PS4, so...
C'mon, BF4 and CoD will be coming out on both this gen and next gen consoles + on PC while KZ will only be coming out on PS4. I think it's pretty much given those two will massively outsell Killzone.
Wait, what does it say? Because "the dev" has no problem with 1080p on another console. IIRC 360 versions of CoD games were always slightly better than on PS3, so it's not like they're anti-microsoft or unfamiliar with the overall architecture.
Now some people might comclude that the console is a LOT less powerful (720vs1080 is no small difference) but that's not necessarily true. At the very least it indicates that developement on this platform is trickier, and perhaps the console (and tools) have been rushed. If it's just the latter, that might not be an issue next time. Kinda doubt it though.
