This is not possible. Microsoft is leaving a false news to gamers. Because there is no way for the Television or Monitor to know at what dynamic framerate the image is being rendered per sec. What Xbox One could do is have the year old Adaptive VSync.

Let me explain what VSYNC does and why GSYNC

Vsync- Sets a fixed framerate to the monitor's framerate. Eg:- If your playing BF3 on PC which runs at 60fps with Vsync ON. When your game drops 1fps instead of dropping to 59fps it drops to 45fps. When this happens you see massive slow down in fluidity in the game but you can actually eliminate the screen tear by doing so. This is why some games even without VSync doesn't cause screen tear. But games that do screen tear are not syncing with the monitor because the monitor doesn't know at what refresh rate the game being rendered apart from its standard refresh rates 15,30,45 & 60. This is the case with Xbox One

GSync- This isn't a new tech. Its already been in Nvidia's Quadro series and iPhone. This is only possible using a display port cable or medium in which according to DisplayPort 1.0 specification the displayport monitors are capable of changing its refresh rate dynamically depending on GPU output. And the fluidity is maintained because GSYNC specs require 144hz and nobody will notice it at that framerate. I have no time to write detailed explanation.

Doesn't seem like it needs explaining. They do a good job explaining how it works in the article.

Sounds like a cool feature to me. Momentary drops in resolution to maintain framerate.

No need to be threatened by this, guys. If PS4 is as perfect as you all seem to believe, then the framerate in PS4 games will never dip below 60fps and the res will always be 1080p... right?

Basically, G-Sync syncs the monitors refresh rate to the Video cards refresh rate to prevent screen tearing and input lag, as well as hopefully preventing screen skipping or freezing.

MS apparent answer is to downgrade the native the resolution, then upscale through an additional hardware component to maintain frame rate. This upscaler can be thought to be akin to how some Blu-Ray Players can upscale DVD content to HDTV content. It's worth noting that this is done this gen already. Games often have a lower resolution, but are upscaled for output independent of the GPU.

MS solution is solving a different problem than G-Sync, and quite honestly, doesn't seem like an answer to G-Sync in the slightest based on this articles description.

@gimmeLESSbubbles

Did you read the entire article? He clearly mentioned no launch games would support it as it wasn't available on early dev kits. Should've kept your promise :/

Most importantly it was also mentioned that none of the launch window games will benefit from any of the new implemented development pipelines as they have been finalised way to late in the cycle. The next wave of games should start to tweak and play with these touted features.

We all need to accept that this is a new generation, it's gonna take time for the both to really shine. Sony have the advantage in the short term, long term we just have to wait and see. I'm guessing a sensible answe like this won't be taken too well.

@ MightyNox Let me help you!

Fanboy argument rules 101:

1. When you're talking about Graphics but the PC version is involved then it's "All about Gameplay " and then "Sony Exclusives" automatically gets dragged into the conversation.
(like the PC doesn't have a Gazillion Exclusives"

2. Now if the argument is about Graphics and just between consoles "PS4 is automatically SUPERIOR" no matter what. WHY? because somehow the PS4 MAGICALLY is 50% more powerful than the XB1 and cost $100 less.

(Now based on Factual Human Laws of Compute Physics the PS4 is NOT 50% more powerful than the XB1 but then AGAIN commonsense and FACTS are thrown out the window in fanboy arguments)

3. Now if the argument is about True Next Gen Gaming " and the PC is NOT involved then again the PS4 wins automatically even when the XB1 begins using Cloud Gaming to render, Multi-tasking power, and advanced Kinect 2.0 features.

Why? Because most fanboys on N4G do NOT understand Cloud Gaming therefore PS4 wins by default.

4. Now if the PC is involved in Next Gen Gaming just bring up "Sony Exclusives" and then say "I'm not paying $990000 for a Gaming PC"!

5. Last but not least if the argument is over a Game NOT coming to the PS4 then that GAME sucks (at least until a PS4 version is annonced). Doesn't matter the Game, that game is not worth money unless it's on the PS4.

It either has bad shadows, repetitive gameplay, boring story, clunky animation, short SP experience, no split screen Co-op, Press X to win gameplay, QTE, or whatever YOU wanna make up to justify it not being worthy of the PS4.

(Now when said game does get a PS4 release date it MAGICALLY becomes a great experience)

I hope this chart helps and it should make your debates with other fanboys a lot easier as this is the definitive Guide to fanboy debates on N4G.
