Updates galore over here in Xbox land. Yummy!
MasterChief Collection bundle is coming....
Here's the thing. If a game looks exactly the same on both consoles. I mean exactly the same. Why should I get it on PS4? PS fans can pretend like its not happening but the graphics on Xbox One have improved significantly and look about on par with PS4 on most recent titles. Of course they will still point to launch titles like Battlefield and ports like Diablo 3.
So lets break it down, we can use Destiny.
It will be 1080p30 on both. It will look 99% iden...
TLOU. Excellent narrative and graphics, weak gameplay.
I still have my Saturn. It was one of my favorite consoles. Sad it died so soon. It did have a few gems.
You can get a Saturn emulator and run Panzer Dragoon Saga decently if you have a good GPU+CPU and lots of RAM. It's not perfect but its playable.
Sony is way behind on features. Happy to hear they are finally getting a YouTube app.
How is Guacamelee? I hear it is very good but have never played it.
My X360 is so full of content. I literally have probably 100 games. Gotham City Imposters had a fun demo.
Xbox One continues to further distance itself in features while closing the gap on the graphical fidelity. Amazing box.
Gamingbolt obviously still trying to push questionable headlines.
Having said that, the Xbox One version of Outlast still managed to run at 1080p without using the SDK update.
So how did they managed to do it without using the SDK update? “It is true that the eSRAM is pretty small for 1080p, you never seemed to have enough of it,” explains Philippe Morin who is the founder of Red Barrel Games. “But since Unreal Engine 3 is a good old forward renderer, we did not need ...
Witcher 3 is running at 900p on Xbox One and the Devs haven't even touched the new XDK and it's a year from launch. A few devs have and the results are fairly significant. Come 2015 there won't be too many games that don't run in 1080p.
Panzer Dragoon Orta 2. A true sequel not Crimson Dragon.
This is the 3rd time they've made a comment on DX12. My question is how would the know anything about DX12 on a competing platform? Have the ever used the API?
A few days ago this was published on Gamingbolt and hotlinked to N4G:
It’s important to note that Wolfgang is not criticizing DirectX and in fact he thinks it will turn out to be great.
Wolfgang Engel was at the GDC booth this year where he spoke about Compute Shader Optimizations ...
Not sure how PS3 won the gen when Xbox 360 obliterated it in the US. And still obliterates it in terms of games sold. Only way PS3 wins if you end last gen in late 2013.
It was clearly over essentially at the close of 2012 capped off by a brilliant Halo 4 title. It's like a Usain Bolt blowing away the competition in the 100 and the 4rd place finisher still going to the 120 mark and saying I won. That's not how it works.
Plus even though last gen is ov...
Microsoft listens to more to customer feedback than Sony, fact.
You guys are grasping at straws. Customers said they didn't like what MS is pushing and MS changed. That is what successful businesses do. They listen. MS is always listening.
PS4 is the best place if you want a marginally better graphical experience for Multiplats.
Otherwise, if you want a better overall experience Xbox One cannot be beat. Dedicated servers, Quick Pause/Resume/Switch of games, better organization and launching for games, external HDD loading, Achievement Snap, Better Twitch Integration, Smartglass, better chat (2 way, party, and Skype).
Also no Halo I know has over 106 maps from all 4 games including the rare ones...
If MS could get BC at the very least for the XBLA....oh man.
Should be coming to X1 soon!
After playing TLOU I can understand why people love this game. It has excellent dialogue, attention to detail, compelling characters, great voice acting, and quality animations but...
At it's core it is just another game that falls back on the tired formula of shoot, kill, cutscene. The combat mechanics in any other game would be considered average. The puzzles are too simplistic, and the exploration leaves a lot to be desired. For such a serious game with such a rich cas...
MS needs to go ahead swoop up Crytech and Capcom.
Even without DX12 or the XDK newer multiplats are appearing 1080p on both consoles so the graphical divide is definitely closing as developers get more familiar with the Xbox One architecture. DX12 Will help increase efficiency. What I find interesting is how many articles have been posted just on the past month on interviews from ICE team and Naughty Dog. The articles seem to borderline on fear and damage control.
These consoles aren't far apart in power. The GPU might...
