Actually it doesn't run at native 1080p, 900p for ps4 and 792p for xb1. Not that its of any real importance.
Aesthetics, lighting, shading, a good game engine and gameplay and storyline along with a solid frame rate all trump resolution. But these resolution junkies dnt seem to understand that. If resolution is more important than all the others just play Tetris at 1080p and leave everyone else to enjoy games for what they are and not examine each pixel with a microscope. Worrying about resolution is not what being a gamer us about, its about fun and escapism.
I see no downgrade tbh. And yes the hardware is capable, it's just it takes time to learn everything about a new platform.
Resolution doesn't equal performance. If u had a pc, and turned up all the resolution but as a cost u had to turn down the graphics, the high res wont make it look as good as it was at lower res but higher graphics. Same thing happens when creating a game, only a certain amount of recourses in a console, i want better lighting, shading, aesthetics and gameplay mechanics before the resolution goes higher
Id rather have great lighting, texture, shading, aesthetics and game engine compared to the idiotic resolution junkies some people have become
@highlife. I agree, this isn't a charity its a business to make the most money possible, Sony are in the same business, so y give them every benefit of the doubt when u all hate on Microsoft? They want ur money too. The best way to make money is to make ur consumers happy, Sony have done that with a good console, Microsoft once had the idiot that was mattrick at the reigns, ditched him, put a gamer in charge and set about making things better, he has started to do that yet u dnt seem to l...
See! Microsoft do something good and what the fans ask for and u call it bs.
then Sony lie to u all about specific game res/fps and u all forgive them. Bias.
Aaaaaannd now look at all the comments that say they will now get an xb1, more sales, cant be a bad thing. The gamer always wins
Why hate on this? Its a good move, people have been asking for it. No one is losing, gamers are winning.
Be warned, there is nothing more dangerous than a desperate opponent.
If Microsoft did the same thing i would bet everyone wouldn't be calling it a mistake, people would be calling them liars and frauds. But because its Sony u all go 'its ok, its just a mistake'. BIAS!
It made no real sense that it be 60fps, it isn't necessary, its not a fps or forza. 30fps for a game like this is fine and smooth, it allows processing power to be used elsewhere for more noticeable and worthwhile uses
No no no no no no!!!!!!
no prequel! Simple reason, we all know how they ended!!!
i want a new adventure that is fresh yet nostalgic.
Apparently im an artist. Ok it makes sense tbh.
Ubisoft haven't confirmed the resolution or frame rate yet, regardless of what Sony says.
personally i find lighting, shading, aesthetics and the quality of the game engine far more important than resolution.
As i said, it takes a certain amount of processing power to bring a game to 60fps, if ur playing a turn based game e.g xcom. (brilliant game). I bet that's at 30fps, if it was at 60fps, the processing power for things such as lighting and shading will be compromised. As long as the game is smooth, it dnt really matter.
60fps isn't necessary in some games, example in an older game. L.a noire was a slow game, so 60fps wasn't necessary, games like titanfall or cod does need it for its fast gameplay, if u have a slow game and try to get 60fps, ur just wasting resources that can be put to better use.
@archangelmike
no 1080p is not a holy grail of the visuals of the game, lighting, shading, aesthetics and the game engine matter alot more than resolution.
@modesign.
firstly, it can do 1080p, forza 5.
secondly, the best looking game from a technical standpoint is an xb1 exclusive.
thirdly, resolution is no where near the most important element in games design, lighting, shading, frame rate, the game engine itself and aesthetics all matter a hell of a lot more than resolution.
stop being a resolution whore.
Kinect with a game bundle would be a good idea
