CRank: 5Score: 8800

This is a grand resolution. In fact its better than grand. The reason the xbox twitch is a higher res than the PS4 twitch is likely because MS are better for software and online services. Sony can't compete with their online, no matter how many free games they distract you with or how many fanboys scream otherwise.

An old friend works with Oracle, heavy weights in online services. He always said their only rival is Microsoft, never even mentioned Sony as even a small comp...

Doesn't matter what the news is, if its Sony related its glass half full, if its xbox related its glass half empty.
N4G is still a great place to get gaming news fast, you just have to be willing to wade through the BS spewed by the sites users

@Mike
Spencer did address the issue ("wait and see" is not a correct quote btw - a perfect example of the pathetic standards on this site):

I would be a fanboy of xbox (though I have good time for the ps3....haven't played the ps4 yet). There was no need to bring Sony into this, completely off topic.

This is the problem with sites on N4G, 60% are made by uninformed fanboys who want to get their biased point across - some might try to hide the bias but for others its shameless. Another 30% are just uninformed gamers. I would class this article in this category. While the xb1 is struggling to get 1080p for alot of its games, its not struggling to get 720p. Maybe 10% of the stories on this site are reliable fact based news and that mainly because they're just twitter links.

I imagine there will be kinect implementation here. Moving your hands will simulate swimming/diving.

Without kinect bundled with every console this wouldn't happen

Warhorse studios are there.....can you play Deliverance Kingdom Come on your phone?

So? Off topic too...This game has the potential to be game of the year. Whether its 720, 900 or 1080p won't stop me from buying it

I can't wait for further drice drops. The steam like summer sales that hit the 360....when the come to xb1 I'll go on a spending spree. Ryse is one of those games that I really want to play but can't justify buying as I'll only play it once.

Slightly off oic but this is the reason I prefer xb1 exclusives to sony exclusives in general (greater emphasis on multiplayer)

Looks ridiculously fun. Unfortunately I have to budget my time and money so I'm waiting for Titanfall but once I see a slight price drop on this already affordable game I'll get it

If they adopted a steam based model with digital prices lower than physical and the family sharing options rumoured to be involved it would be a much better console.

I have an xb1 and have fifa and BF4 on disc. Every game since is digital and honestly I won't be going back to physical

Plus the kinect

The reaction was kick xbox while its down when 900p was announced.....Now it must be poor coders.

This is N4G afterall

I agree with this. After E3 the landscape could change again...both seem to be holding back new IPs but at the moment xbox has it.

PS4 is more powerful but xbox is more focused on multiplayer experience.

Fair analysis.....going to get bombarded with disagrees

I have played all these maps except Metro 2014. I have to say they have all been improved and also show the limitations of the original BF4 maps.

Second assault brings linear maps back into the frame and I didn't realise how much I was missing them. There are too many circular shaped maps in BF4 where you're not entirely sure which base to more to after you take one.....as a result its a bit more chaotic.

I still think Oman is unbalanced. The side w...

Sure a MP game only can be worth the 60 bucks. I bought BF3 and never completed the campaign yet it was possibly my most played game ever. Its weird that nobody minds if a single player game lacks MP but does the other way round. Even the great SP campaigns I'll usually only play once.....Halo and Halo2 being major exceptions.

The question is, will Titanfall be diverse enough and replayable enough to warrant a full price? Its too early to tell from the beta. I hope they ...

It shows as 39.99 on mine anyway. I expect further price drops in the next few months and will consider getting it then

I really like the smart pistol, but it definitely isn't a noob weapon. For it to be really effective you need to get the drop on your opponent. Also, if you get the drop on 3-4 opponents it can hit each of them with one bullet alerting them that they've been ambushed and giving them time to react. It does however offer something new to the FPS. I like running around with it, avoiding open areas, sneaking up on opponents.....it encourages a style of play.

I don't k...

Halo, Gears and Titanfall will have around 6 months between each of their releases. They won't steal sales from each other.

I think Titanfall will be better than destiny. Having played Halo for so long I keep seeing it in Destiny. People say Titanfall is a COD knock off but I think Destiny looks alot more like Halo. Even though I love Bungie, I probably won't buy Destiny (unless the reviews blow me away) - theres too many great games coming out on the XB1 this year an...
