It's funny to see that an article regarding the new Sony SDK (which brings lots of features and much more gaming performance) has so few comments, BUT a rumor or hype released by one of MS representatives (DX12 and cloud) has hundreds of comments in couple of hours (even though is just a rumor).
The question is why...
The same comparison could be also made between Sony and MS. Sony does not talk but just presents the final results of their work, while MS ...

@ Joy
Check the link and you'll see that only 3 games are sub 1080p on PS4. For me 3 games represent exception to the general rule.
@ Irish
Check the link and you'll see that 29 out of 50 games are sub 1080p on X1. For me this means that the MAJORITY (more than half) are sub 1080p.
PS4 version of Far Cry 4 is running 1080p natively. With few exception (3 to be exact) every game released on PS4 runs at 1080p natevely.
As with the X1, the majority of games are sub 1080p and with few exceptions there are 1080p games (implying lots of efforts and optimization - Diablo3 and Destiny.
It is exactly what Microsoft hopped to achieve by choosing this odd resolution, namely people to say is 1080p. This is completly false.
1400x1080 is equivalent of 1600x900.
1400x1080=1,512,000
1600x900=1,440,000
1400x1080 is just another scam from Microsoft. People should use their brain and stop believing MS BS.
What I don't understand is how some people still believe in a company that demonstrated numerous times that do...
Could someone tell me when Far Cry 4 was released? Why we found out only now? Digital Foundry published the performance analysis of the PS4 version 1 week ago and nothing about the X1 version? Why?
I am inclined to believe that Microsoft paid journalists (including Digital Foundry) to keep their mouth shut with respect to the performance/ resolution of Far Cry 4 on X1.
Shame on those journalists that bend towards Microsoft! Shame on Microsoft for their policy...
But why they changed Stanby Mode with Rest Mode?
I heard that now the fan is spinning continuously in Rest Mode? Is it true?
The CPU is still working in Rest Mode? Why is this happening considering that the PS4 has an ARM chip? Why are not using that chip for downloads or charging the controller?
Thanks for answering...
You're right. A couple of days ago I answered to some some guy that pretended that Shadow of Mordor is 1080p on X1. I asked him to give me the source that he has and also providing the source (i.e. Digital Foundry) according to which the game is 900p with all the patches installed.
For the above post I received 20 disagrees in 5 minutes.
So for asking the source and posting a fact I received a lot of disagrees.
Something should be change...
Not only that X1 is 900p, but from the read of the article (comments on each photo comparison) seems that X1 has worse texture filtering and also loss in distant detail.
@DanzoSAMA
When X1 received a day one 1080p patch for Shadow of Mordor?
Could you please give me the source?
According with Digital Foundry, X1 is 900p WITH the day one patch installed!
Please read the second paragraph of the article

Edit: So I get disagrees for...
I'm not surprised at all that a difference exists between the PS4 and X1 taking into account the PES15's graphics and the fact that some concessions had to be made to X1 version of FIFA15 (i.e. lack of the motion blur).
However, I was not expecting to such big difference.
It was confirmed by the developer that PS4 will be 1080p, while X1 900p. Apart from the resolution, there is no other performance/ graphical difference.
Check this between 0:25 - 1:00

This message released by MS also enters in the "180" category? Or should be included in the "360" category... Oh well, we shouldn't be surprised anymore...
You're right but now he is 100% sure. Thinking at the deals that have been put on the market so fat combined with a fair/ understandable desperation, for sure it the holiday will bring the best Done deals.
Everyone wanting a bundle should wait until the holidays.
Chill out... nobody will downplay your precious Xbox.
The fact that a game falls (sporadically, occasionally) FOR LESS THAN A SECOND to 28 fps DOES NOT mean it has performance issues. This simply means that we may deal with an anomaly that could have various reasons (like a BUG that has been found in the PS4 version of Diablo 3 and Destiny Beta).
In fact, this anomaly has been explained by DF in the Xone article of yesterday. You should read first and then ac...
How many clarifications have been given by MS? So many spins that the majority of time spent by MS is with the clarifications.
How about MS focus on games and exclusives. They have less than half of what Sony gives to PS4 owners.
How about decrease the price such as to correctly reflect the power difference.
How about give to early Xone adopters a free game for deceiving them that Kinect would not be ditched.
How about ask fo...
@jrshankill @lfc_4eva @ cigi
So you are not fooled/ lied by MS if:
- they charge for Kinectless XOne (the weaker console, without voice commands out of the box) the same amount of money as PS4 (the powerful console, the slicker design etc, with voice commands out of the box).
- they say that Kinect is the center of the console and without it the Xone cannot function, BUT after only 7 months they ditch it (only to save the sales numbers);
- they request...
@ jrshankill
Could you please tell me were I said that I want Xbox One to fail?
I don't want MS to fail, but I want, as a consumer, to not be fooled by any company because I cannot give money to someone that fools me.
If you want to be fooled on your one money, be my guest, but I will NEVER give my money for no reason (especially to some one that could fool me).
Anyway, my POINT is that what is happening with MS is due...
WOW!
Based on the news the PS4 is going from good to great, while XONE is going from bad to worse.
This is just reflecting MS's decisions of launching a weak console, the bad PR, the unclear vision, the artificial hype (DX12, CLOUD) etc etc etc.
This is a lesson for the industry... You cannot longer fool the consumers! The consumers are smart and informed.
Why shouldn't we believe a 40-50% difference, if the hardware specs reveal this difference? It's a fact! Both have the same architecture but PS4 has a much powerful GPU! This is sufficient to have an idea of the power difference. What would you need more?
Oh games! Right! Look here and you will have all the proof you need

This is purely due to the hype. If people didn't listen to this hype and waited, the sales would have been much much lower.
In this respect, did they take into account the returned/ refunded discs into the sales figures? I know a lot of people returning the game.
