LOL, dat chair.....I want one!

You're wrong. To achieve 30fps each frame is rendered in 33.3ms or less. 60fps requires that each frame is rendered in 16.7ms or less.

(But that is only latency to the display and doesn't include many factors that affect latency to the controls. That's a whole other issue I'm not going to bother getting into right now).

So yes, the latency is lower if you are averaging 50fps instead of 30fps, but you would be DEAD WRONG if you think a stuttery variable framerate offers a better experience in terms of the CONSISTENCY and feel of the controller response.

A stuttery framerate is also visually displeasing. When motion jerks and judders across your screen it kills immersion and the sense of realism. Motion is smooth in reality, but with an uneven framerate the motion in a game is jerky and juddery which looks unnatural and ugly.

In any case, the difference between the actual frame rates in the PS4 and Xb1 versions isn't as large as you think.

The XB1 version is capped at 30fps. Every game that is capped at 30fps would actually average much higher (since 30fps has to be the average minimum framerate)... most would probably average in the high 40s and would sometimes reach well up into the 50s.

So, in reality the XB1 version is probably averaging something like 43fps, while the PS4 averages 53fps. So, yeah, the PS4 version averages about 10fps more, which isn't surprising since it is the more powerful console. It's a difference, but not as big as some of you are making it out to be.

Personally, if I didn't have the PC version as an option I would prefer the relatively solid 30fps of the XB1 version over the PS4's frame rate that is stuttery most of the time.

^You're wrong.

30fps average is that, 30fps.

Say a game is 60fps, but dips to 45fps. You're telling me that it's lower than 30fps average? What kind of math are you doing?

And minimum frame times is irrelevant unless you look at frame rate over time.

And no, you can ask ANYBODY who owns a gaming PC that a game without V-Sync, while it has screen tear, is still less "laggy" than a game with 30fps and V-Sync on.

Trying to justify 30fps is one of the most delusional thing i've ever seen from the Xbone camp.

It's about as delusional as those saying 720p is clearer than 1080p.

"So, in reality the XB1 version is probably averaging something like 43fps, while the PS4 averages 53fps. So, yeah, the PS4 version averages about 10fps more, which isn't surprising since it is the more powerful console. It's a difference, but not as big as some of you are making it out to be."

Where do you get 43?

30fps capped is 43fps average?

Yes I was aware... But I wasn't expecting the gap to be this huge. I bought an Xbox One because most of my friends are on it and I'm a bigger fan of the exclusives that it has. I also figured multiplats wouldn't be too much different, but if the difference is this huge in upcoming multiplats I might just buy a PS4 for multiplats. If not, I'll just have to deal with it.

"For it's part, the Xbox One is clearly mode consistent."

smooth gameplay > 60fps

@idontcare go on gamersyde and watch PS4 gameplay if that isn't smooth i don't know what is.

I would have made the choice for consistency over average framerate if I was on the design team, too. I guess it just comes down to what you prefer, but this by no means shows that the X1 is underpowered.

i hate fps drops so a stable 30fps is fine with me. have fun playing the better looking but more inconsistent version on the PS4.

and btw, Killzone SF has fps drops. why do you think people are complaining?

http://community.killzone.c...

i really want to want a PS4 but there's still no reason to get one. maybe the Order, Deep Down or Uncharted will change that. as long as the xb1 proves to be a great system with little to no disadvantages compared to the ps4 then i'm fine!

I would agree but killzone had a few drops at the veginning but is long fixed. And TR drops from 30 to 18 fps on xbox. What do you prefer? 30 to 18 or 60 to 32 fps? I am totally with you, they should lock them to lowest, on xbox 18 and ps 32, but they didnt. It drops at xbox too low. Sure its not a pc, but as I said there are many years to come and what do you believe xbox is at the time the ps4 can only handle 18-30fps? Dude xbox is very cool, but they screwed up the same way sony did with the ps3. The exclusives from xbox are the only worth to play, but not for 500 bucks. I played all of them and spend more time on ps4 because of multigames. Exclusives could be developed everytime at 1080p and 60fps because the devs know what to cut to reach that. But all other developer give a shit to optimize, why they should do? It costs all money. The Developer are truly with sony this time. Ps4 has un this short time already double the games than xbox one and three times more are announced than xbox one. Its really sad, because i prefer xbox too. But in the end its about all games and not exclusives. The exclusives are not that much and more to advertise the console.

So if there's no difference because of Youtube how are there people in this comment section saying PS4 is the best version?

@maniacmayhem

Because the developer said so and gamers who've played it have said so aswell....duhhhh

@Foxtrot

Ooooh so now we can trust the developers and gamers??

Ok, so all the hype for Titanfall is legit because the developer and gamers who played it said so aswell too...

duuuuhhhh
