I know you got a job to do phil, but please just stop with the spin.
I think that's Agent Phil job.

That's not really fair. The crowd is the way it is because you drive by it so fast it doesn't need to be really detailed. It's not really because of the XBO's limitations. Overall F5 looks great. It's 60fps and 1080p... AND it is a launch title. The man has a point.
Fucking. Wow.
Why bother responding? It's a lose/lose for them every time...
As much as I like the Xbox, I really wish they would just stop talking, well except Phil Spencer.
The box is weaker, and nothing is going to change that, just give me the games.
lol at people saying "admit your flaws"
Yes, because that's what these companies do. Remember that time when Nintendo said...um...or when Sony came out and.....
Microsoft's problem isn't that they should admit to flaws, they don't seem to be any good at highlighting the strengths. I mean, how is it that we only JUSt found out the controller can have it's firmware updated?
Yeah it's nothing groundbreaking, but it's still pretty neat and opens up some interesting possibilities. They should be talking about that sort of stuff.

What? He makes a very good point. Fact is the Xbox had the better looking launch games.
Not that it should matter.

Not a racing game player but I think high resolution 2D cutouts look better than... This.
I'm not sure there will ever be a solution for this "problem" in racing games, and that resources will always be rightfully allocated elsewhere.
You can pick this sort of shit from any racing game. Most don't even bother.
It was a work in progress. Maybe they decided having a fully modeled crowed was not a smart use of resources? I don't know.Then why did they show a fully rendered crowd in the reveal trailer? Are you serious?

Obviously should have used Peggle 2 as a better example.

This argument...
Guys, have you seen Powerstar golf? Totally running at 1080p.
I'm sure the xbone could output PacMan at 1080 native also...
This argument does not magically invalidate the complaints about the games that don't run at 1080.
Especially when the PS4 does.

Lol look at Forza 5 indeed. Ps2 era crowds, peaked lighting, and next to no post processing effects... might have wanted to pick a different game there, bucko.

Everything but the HUD looks really blurry in that 1080 image. I can't tell if its terrible graphics or bad upscaling.Pretty sure Powerstar Golf runs at 720p for some reason.

The sooner Microsoft concedes that their system is by the numbers weaker and stops letting their message get bogged down in tech pissing contests, the better off they will be.
There are a lot of cool things that you can do with an Xbox One that you can't do with any other gaming console out there. Tout those things, MS. Playing the numbers game with resolution or teraflops isn't the way to highlight your machine's strengths.

Agreed. They should let their system sell by its strengths. If they don't feel that it can differentiate itself by those things alone, then why would they have made the power compromise to include them?The sooner Microsoft concedes that their system is by the numbers weaker and stops letting their message get bogged down in tech pissing contests, the better off they will be.

What in the fuck is Phil supposed to say?
Ignore the tweet?
Misdirection? "Forget the issue of 1080p... why don't you see these cool games we have instead?"
Self-deprecation? "You're right, any game running in 1080p does so by cutting corners. Most games on XB1 will be between 720p and 900p"

Yar, matey, that it does.Wow, that's what I get for assuming...I was trying to prove that less technical games are obviously going to be able to output at higher resolutions, and I end up using a incorrect example.
And somehow, it makes me point even more valid

Curious to see how Project Cars will handle crowds.

Forza 5 is really not a very good looking game, so that's not a good example. Kinect Sports Rivals looks fantastic, but an exception is not a rule. It's a pain in the butt to do 1080p on XB1 according to the Rebellion dev, and Phil doesn't refute that. Having a couple of 1080p games is far worse proof of ease of 1080p than the MULTITUDE of sub-1080p games do of the exact opposite.

It did, as someone posted multiple examples in this thread. :\Didn't Forza 5 see a noticeable downgrade since E3?
