Xbox One X/PS4 Pro Graphical Differences Will Be Visible In Big AAA Games – BetaDwarf

GamingIVfun3178d ago

The difference is noticeable with the naked eye, but it's not a night and day difference. If you have a TV with HDR that's where the real difference shines, but it's not like the games on the standard systems are going to suddenly look bad or even hugely inferior.

Ju3178d ago

And you know that because you have first hand played those games on your Pro and your XoX, of course. Oh wait...

SierraGuy3178d ago (Edited 3178d ago )

Pro handles HDR processing natively unlike 1X and your 1X lacks rapid packed math capability (Vega tech). I'll deal with the slightly less resolution/textures, better games until PS5 annihalates this thing. Come next July and we will be talking about how there is no difference between visuals and asking ourselves how Sony did it again with "inferior" hardware.

Get over it people, X1X games will run the best on consoles and unless you're Stevie Wonder, you will be able to see that.

Bigpappy3178d ago

The higher resolution will result in a cleaner, sharper image. But the real differentiators here, will be the level of textures and lighting used at these high resolutions. The X1X more VRAM and faster bandwidth is what will make it tower waaay over what the Pro can come close to achieving. Those who have convinced themselves that the average gamer wouldn't be able to notice the difference will be surely disappointed.

HDR on the PS4P is just as good as it is on the X1. So probably won't see much difference between the two due to that.

@Septic BULLSHIT. You and your xbox buddies constantly said for almost 4 years that 900p vs 1080p was "slightly better" and you can't even tell the difference from 10 feet away. PS4's 40% more GPU horsepower was "slightly faster". Now that the specs moved in the other direction, all of a sudden you can see the difference between checkerboard and native rendering, and 40% more power is "beast" to you. Like what the hell? How can you not see how much of a hypocrite you are being??

Also, how does gamingbolt manage to pull these no-name developers out of the woodwork to make their clickbait articles? What the hell is minion masters?? haha

@GamingIVFun: "If you have a TV with HDR that's where the real difference shines"

The Pro does HDR every bit as well as the X. Perhaps even better. The X's advantages have nothing to do with HDR.

@Septic: "X1X games will run the best on consoles and unless you're Stevie Wonder, you will be able to see that."

Oh geez. LOL. No. If that were true, DigitalFoundry wouldn't be necessary. It takes larger orders of magnitude for people to see a major difference as hardware improves. Most people can barely tell the difference between 4K and 2K at normal viewing distance, and anyone who claims otherwise is a liar or hasn't actually tried it. The X will be the better version, but 9 times out of 10 it will be extremely minor to the naked eye. There's a reason why Sony isn't rushing to get another PS console out.

Realms3177d ago

@Septic

LOL. Ever heard of the law of diminishing returns the difference won't be huge but I guess you already know that. With each generation the gap or leap has gotten smaller this is no different and as we move forward it will be less and less. We get it you desperately want MS to win something anything but the truth is a PC makes X obsolete if power is what your after.

Agree 1 Disagree 1

rainslacker3177d ago

lol @ all the disagrees about my HDR comment. Would be curious how a function of HDR, which in itself is processed by the TV, with next to no rendering processes applied to it other than to export the pixel meta data for said TV, is somehow better on the X1X.

HDR differences are seen based on the TV and the actual format of HDR used. Since both X1X, X1, PS4, and PS4P all use HDR10, what exactly does the X1X have over every other console on the market?

HDR will indeed be more impressive than the bump in resolution if one is coming from a non-HDR system, but it's not something for one console's fan boys to lord over the other sides, as this benefit is there for all but the stock X1 owners to enjoy.

You don't need a magnifying glass to see 2 million more pixels on native 4k vs checkboard 4k.

KickSpinFilter3178d ago (Edited 3178d ago )

Look at it this way:
Checkerboard 4K rendering to native 4K is of diminishing returns. Let's look at a beach it's boulders versus rocks for an (extreme) illustration, that was org XB1 to PS4, now we move to XBX vs PS4 Pro. To illustrate we start looking at sand in Hawaii compared to sand in CapeCod, USA. From the same distance that we were looking at the boulders and rocks. While the sand in Hawaii is much more fine than the course sand at the Cape we can't tell the difference really from that same distance as we were from the boulders and rocks. Sure if you get on your hands and knees ya it's a big difference from 6 inches away! Most sit at least 6 feet away from their sand errrr TV. So if XBX gives us more people on the beach, trash, umbrellas, coolers, shells, sand blowing around into peoples faces and dead starfish now your talking! Or will we get parity with XB1? So there ya have it…your pounding sand.

It's amusing to see the people that could spot the difference between native 1080p and upscaled 1080p, but are blind to native 4K and upscaled 4K.

Realistically, upscaled or checkerboard 4K will look very similar to native 4K. The biggest difference will be in the amount of games taking advantage of the more powerful platforms. Sony's parity clause with PS4 and the more time consuming porting process will make a bigger impact than the displayed resolution.

@notachance

Its almost as if I walk into a store to buy a TV and there aren't multiple TV's side by side playing the same video... Will I be able to tell the difference once I take the tv home? Nope, but that doesn't mean I don't know deep down there is someone else out there playing a video in more detail than what I have. It's up for people to decide whether they want that or not.

That's really the whole point of premium products. The return is diminishing but it is still there.

notachance3177d ago (Edited 3177d ago )

yes,

but the TV analogy often have competitive price with similar if not the same feature, here we have $100 more expensive products with far more inferior game offerings compared to PS4Pro, with vastly more communities everywhere except NA/UK, maybe even including those two region now.

people would rather play with friends than choosing slightly better graphics, that's why XB pushed crossplay like mad now, so that people won't choose other console simply because the majority of people play there.

XStation4pio_Pro3178d ago (Edited 3178d ago )

It’s not just resolution... and 4k is literally double the resolution. When you have a 4k tv, blurring and aliasing are nonissues. If a game is running in true 4k it’s near impossible to see chatter. But beyond that it’s better frame rates and more effects. Things like more particles means things like more environmental effects, more and better smoke effects. Better explosion effects, better water, higher fidelity animation cycles, cube mapping, higher res 4k textures etc.

if you want to see even a modest piece of evidence of more power mattering, play gta5 in boost mode on PS4 pro and tell me the added fluidity in frame rates doesn’t make a difference.

The fanboys were laughing at the Xbox one doing 900p vs 1080p PS4 games and people swore they could see the difference of of 320 x 180 pixels, yet doubling the resolution, improving texture quality and frame rates is an imperceivable difference. Lmfao. You obviously don’t have a 4k tv or experience with higher fidelity gear.

crazyCoconuts3178d ago

The part a lot of people keep missing is that resolution alone is reaching a point of diminishing returns because your eyesight has limitations. So 900p to 1080p will be more obvious than 1600p to 2160p. The additional memory the X has opens the door to more than just resolution (like better textures) which I think will yield a bigger difference than resolution. How much 3rd party developers take advantage of it remains to be seen. The reason the best looking ps4 and Xbox games are typically exclusives is because the 3rd party developers rarely do...

Totally agree. I do laugh at the hypocrisy. I believe we are looking at fan boy karma...

Don't worry though, in a few years when sony releases ps5 it will go the other way again, then rinse and repeat..

GUTZnPAPERCUTZ3178d ago

Some of y'all still don't get it... RAM folks! PS4 = 8gb GDDR5, PS4 Pro = 8gb GDDR5, X1 = 8gb DDR3, what do they all have in common? THE SAME AMOUNT OF MEMORY!

PS4 has faster RAM over X1, so for example, when you load into say... Battlefield, and the textures and objects load before your eyes when your getting ready to load out. On PS4 it loads in faster than X1, but the end result is still the same texture quality.

When you see DF analyze PS4 Pro vs PC on graphics comparisons, you will ALWAYS notice that PC has higher res textures simply because more RAM, or PC draw distance or LOD is better, because it has more RAM!

Now, the Graphics Settings like Textures, Object Count, LOD, etc. (other memory extensive task) on X1X vs Pro will be more noticeable than PS4 Pro vs PS4. PS4 Pro vs PS4 is usually higher native Res or double the frame-rate with pretty much the same graphical quality with minor tweaks here and there.

The biggest benefit of the X1X over PS4 Pro/PS4/X1 is the amount of Memory and is what will separate it from the rest visually :)

Kribwalker3178d ago

Yep. It's not just resolution or a few extra blades of grass, it's Medium settings vs high/ultra settings, thanks mostly in part to the extra GPU power and RAM

otherwise but don't try selling that cool aid here because we aren't drinking.

@ full speed you will definitely see alot of pop in on the pro because of the almost 50%gpu power
and the massive ram advantage of the x1x... the draw distance alone will clearly stand out on the x1x
and not only that all games will run better

porkChop3177d ago

Funny. No one seemed to need a magnifying glass to point out the small differences between PS4 and XBO games. The power gap between the X and the PS4 Pro is 1.8 TFLOPS. The difference between XBO and PS4 was only about 500 GFLOPS. Meaning that the gap is now almost 4 times larger, and with an extra 3 GB of RAM as well.

The difference will be clearly visible. That's just a fact. It doesn't really matter though, because the PS side of things will still have the better library of games anyway.

BS. Call me when you will be playing Destiny2 and point out those obvious differences without pause and zoom when people have a hard time acknowledging that there is a difference between 1080p and 4K (today). Yes, I want to see those arguments when you'll point out that extra shadow resolution in "real" 4k...and nobody cares. Good luck. Meanwhile we've been gaming in 4K for over a year.

KingKionic 3178d ago

There will be obvious differences across many games that are directly as apparent as Rise of Tombraider comparison.

Not something that needs to be debated.

Xbox One X is designed to show the best versions of games in comparison to a PC version.

Were as Ps4 Pro is more about resolution bumps. Its not really a horse in this comparison.

Ju3176d ago

Yet again. BS. The XoX probably lifts above what a $500 PC does. And the Pro does the same for a $400 segment. And then there will be more expensive PCs which play the game "better". Who cares. It's about that sweetspot where it gives you the best performance for the money. And XoX ain't it. And if it will sell like hot cakes, Sony will probably increase the price advantage by another $50 at some point. Yet, still, the "upgrade" from XoX _IS_ smaller than from PS4 to the Pro. I am looking forward to the arguments we'll be having when games for the XoX will actually release.

You Xboxer get all excited because you were gaming subbar for so long. And sure, the gap is even bigger between XO and XoX.

@TKC that's a subjective statement tring to claim just because the x1x doesn't have exclusive games
you prefer to play that some how makes x1x not the console to get... thats just dumb you should
think before you post.

thats like me saying ps4 doesn't have halo forza or gears so how is it the console to have it's subjective content
and just states one's preference.

now the true argument would be seeing exclusive games only make up 10% of games on both consoles
what's the other benefits between the 2 consoles much better AAA support that makes up 95% of all games on both systems 4k blue ray backwards compatibility you see how that's a true argument and not a subjective
opinion right... i thought so.

Well if ND can make TLOU on the PS3 that is still miles away of so many games today.... Not really worried.

Im a gamer and i wont stop a game to look for diferences, something that even DF already told. Everything else is just PR.

The only way to this be true was if a game was running at 720p on the PS4 and 4k native on the X. That would a HUGE diference. The reality is that the image will be a little more softer on the PS4.

Something that DF already show us with PC running at real 4k and the Pro version, the image is softer on the sony machine.

There wont be no night and day diference. The only big diference would be if the all games on the X could run at 60 frames. Multiplayer wise would be a huge plus, like we all see on Destiny 2!!!!!

Developers can use the power of X to increase draw distance, add more foliage and detail to textures, incorporate better shadows, etc. It's not just about resolution.

Texture quality is more important than resolution to me as midrange Pc gamer I can see the difference between 1080p low textures vs 1080p high textures.On ps4 pro I have rise of tomb raider and although it's 4k the textures on the characters don't look to good to me.It may improve over time in other games once they implement Vega though.

Yes, the newer more expensive console will be more powerful than the older cheaper one. Go figure.

There will be differences but will that equate to more sales, which Microsoft wants of course.
Casuals will have to look and see if a 500 dollar console is worth the extra power they see in the games or stick with cheaper options like ps4 pro which gives less but similar performance. Or just base models in general.

rainslacker3178d ago

More sales remains to be seen.

What I can say for sure now is that we can look forward to the next 2-3 years until PS5 drops to hear about how so much better things are on X1X at every opportunity possible, closely followed by the followup replies of how Xbox has no exclusives.

Even before people can compare them first hand...if they'll even bother to do that, there are many convinced it's already significantly better.

And the game of spot the difference continues. I wish people just played their games instead of worrying about crap like this. Everyone with their Pros and X's can beat their chest because they're playing the better version of games than me, meanwhile, I can play the exact same games at a fraction of the cost (less than half, actually).

Can't we all be winners?

HeyNowChillax3178d ago

They have this totally wrong. PS4 Pro has over a year on X1X and the enhancements are clear for both 4K and 1080p owners. The X1X has no AAA exclusives planned for the immediate future and any differences you are going to see on multi platform games, that don't get the same treatments that come with exclusivity, will be minimal and barely noticeable in motion. DF will no doubt point out the specifics by zooming into captured frames, love their work.

For X1X year one, we'll see marginal enhancements over PRO as developers now have the savvy the get more performance out of it system which we all know happens with every console during it's lifetime. We don't need to get into a rapid pack math discussion, but just like AMD's vega line which supports it there is also future performance potential.

Yet none of that really matters because by the time we truly experience the power of X1X, 12-16 months will have passed and PS5 will be nearing if not ready for launch and the they already have the exclusives in production. Let's hope Sony wakes up takes MS's approach with software and accessories that works on their next console. Kudos to MS, that was Phil Spencer's greatest contribution to the "Xbox Family" to date but let's be honest, they should have been working harder on developing exclusive games for their flagship.

Well duh

Hardiman3178d ago (Edited 3178d ago )

Good thing I'm more than satisfied with my Pro as I'll have more cash for games! Edit: Also folks keep saying games will look better on the X which is fine but what if you are satisfied and it doesn't bother you what then? I guess I would've cared about something ike that as a kid but as an adult not so much. I'm enjoying the games that are on and are coming to the PS4 and like I said I'm fine with how they look and run.

HeyNowChillax3172d ago

If you have a decent PC, you can play all MS exclusives at better settings if your hardware can push the pixels. https://www.xbox.com/en-US/...

The biggest difference will be in the graphics department, not the resolution. When you have 1X doing 4k textures, while Pro is just hoping the resolution, gamers will notice ✌🏾

driveclub uses 12k textures does that mean its 3x better then a x-box

timotim3177d ago

First off, DC as a franchise is no more and the studio that made the game is no more. Using DC in any context referring to the future is pointless. And DC's base resolution is 1080p with a framerate of just 30FPS...if the game in fact did have a 12k texture packs applied to it, it would have been in the 100GB+ storage range, not the meager 20GBs or so required to play the game haha. DC's textures are nothing to write home about, in fact, the game can come off as blurry, especially the background. Crisp or clean is definitely not words I would use to describe Driveclub.

Lastly, I never used the word "better" in my statement. I said that gamers will notice when a 3rd party game adds 4k packs to the 1X version while simply just increasing the base PS4 version to 4k for the Pro through CB. This effects the resolution AND graphics. Also, supersampling for 1080p users...most Pro games don't supersample, yet EVERY X game does. For 1080p TV onwers, if a 3rd party game is superampled on X but not on Pro, they will notice ✌🏾

TheVetOfGaming3178d ago

Same stories that came along when this generation started out. I think now that everybody has settled on their console of choice, or consoles, they don't mind the little differences. I'm good with my PS4 until next gen. I have a 4k TV, but I can hold off for another couple of years until 4k may become the standard. Been gaming over 25 years, and it takes more than slightly boosted graphics to make me care about something. Just my opinion.

Mikey Mike3178d ago

I'm in the same boat, been a gamer since 85. I have a 4K 55 inch HDR TV, and my buddy and I can't really tell the difference on a PRO and a regular PS4. Most people cannot or cannot tell the difference until there you see some font, LOL. That's about it, but people will claim one is better than the other to justify their purchase. The new Xbox sparked some interest, however I cannot spend my hard earned cash knowing that this generation is ending in about two years.

What AAA titles? 😂

jasonpugh3177d ago

Just like the PS4 vs. Xbox days, and all the resolution argument discussions, the Xbox One X will be the console to play all the best multi-plat titles. People speak of the PS5 but do you really think Microsoft doesn't already have something in development? I doubt they give up the power crown ever again.

Did you see the article where Microsoft was saying that they will not do console generations anymore they are going incremental?

Gwynbleidd3177d ago

It is so funny, I read the same comments as the years before only the commenters have switched sides. You also simply have to switch PS4 Pro with Xbox One and PS4 with Xbox One X, lol.
People that argued for huge differences before suddenly don't see differences that apparently where that obvious before. The hypocricy is real.
Play on the machine you prefer guys! Resolution is not that important to most people. These are two great machines we can choose from!

HonoredShadow3177d ago

Fan boys make me laugh. Arguing over nothing while they play at 30fps. Not good enough by a long shot. The amount of blur and double image is maddening.

Gaming Bolt reeling them in as always.

ossyc3177d ago (Edited 3177d ago )

For most new games like Destiny 2, which is a woeful 30fps, both will be the same.

However, on my PC I'll be running either 1 monitor > 1920x1080P@ 240Hz / 240fps GSYNC or a 2nd monitor > 3440x1440 21.9@ 100Hz / 100fps GSYNC - oh the choices......and yes I'm showing off

ONESHOTV23177d ago (Edited 3177d ago )

same here 1440p-165hz +gsnyc or 4k-60 my choice

BetaDwarf? Who the hell is that?

Oh, it's ANOTHER FailingBolt troll piece where they tease out a clickbait statement from a no-name dev. It' freaking clockwork...they have no shame.

BAN GAMINGBOLT ALREADY, N4G. What will it take? They are the National Enquirer of gaming sites. They are worse than other sites that have been banned, by a freaking landslide.

BassMan1253177d ago

Not in PS4 AAA games. lol

The_Sage3177d ago

Did anyone aside from me actually read the article?... Some developer I've never heard of working on a game I've never heard of says there should be a difference in AAA games. That's it.

This story should have failed.
