If I was MS I would simply upgrade the next lot of hardware, make sure the old hardware can still play the new games and also allow early adopters the option the trade in at huge a discount, offer a kinect-less bundle, I have to be honest the new Kinect has not really showed me that it's a big jump from the last one, at least do an update so that when I unplug the thing I do not get a message telling me it's unplugged!
I agree with kingduqc, the gap will be much bigger this time and I expect more people to go back to PC as a result, and you fanboys think you are preventing that when all you are doing is exposing just how cheap they have been this GEN, if you built a gaming PC and it could only run BF4 on low settings would you be disappointed? I built a PC with a basic FM2 board which is not finished, I am waiting for a new CPU+GPU combo to run alongside my HD7790, but even with a basic quad core the level ...
I disagree.
I built a PS4 beater quite easily and it did not cost me a arm and a leg, I have a PS4 and thinks it's brilliant but it's BF4 settings are low settings on a PC, not medium as some have suggested, I was actually a little disappointed at how easy it was too better it.
Seriously mate at some point it will cause such an outrage I reckon they will remove it from PS4 use, or impose stricter rules which make it harder to join without being more transparent, too many racist abusive people getting away with unacceptable behavior, but having said that it can be fun, just off to start it up now ;)
My kids are not allowed to use the playroom, I didn't sign up to see women using dildos.
Well all I can say is that all these fanboy wars have got me interested in PC's again, I can't afford a Intel but to be honest I think AMD are fantastic! my next purchase will be a socket FM2 CPU with built in GPU which will allow me to crossfire it with my AMD HD 7790, another 8gb RAM and i'm sorted, having said that after spending hours trying to optimize BF4 I was getting poor framerates possibly due to the CPU or RAM, 8gb should be great so my guess is the CPU, but I decided t...
"Mantle will most likely be available to the masses sometime after April" when you say masses do you mean for developer use of public? because I am already using mantle.
Oh whoops another typo! big deal, get over it, you know what I meant, but at least you can admit to being a cocky little *hit
I can't really run BF4 on a 3.7mhz CPU lol ;)
Kingston 8GB (2 x 4GB) 1600MHz DDR3
Does that help! and regards the CPU MHZ that's called a typo mate, I can admit that, but the fact that you don't understand ram speeds makes you look a idiot for trying to educate me.
If you were not being cocky then my apologies.
Now your just talking sense mate ;)
This is more than possible, I have a PC with 2GB Radeon HD 7790 GDDR5, 8GB 16mhz RAM, 7200rpm HD and the CPU is a Quad core AMD athlon X4 740 3.2-3.7mhz, any Tech guys here will tell you that my bottleneck would be the CPU yet when I use 'AMD Gaming evolved' to optimize my games I can run Battlefield 4 at higher resolutions than both the PS4 and the Xbox 1, so explain that, and yes it also looks better than both.
For goodness sakes, all i got from this article was positives, clearly when he says Maxed out he means they are pushing it to the very limits, isn't this not a good thing?
Dude I still cant see much difference between Blu-ray and DVD.
One thing that does worry me though more than all this is Kinect, dam thing does not work right since the update, Kinect is the thing that is letting MS down most, not enough launch games, Kinect sports was a great benchmark for Kinect 1, please MS sort it out.
I am looking forward to getting BF4 for Xbox One, a lot of my friends will be using Xbox One because they like Xbox-live over PSN, I can't add to that because I have not played one friend on BF4 on PS4 so have not even set up a mic yet, the PS4 version looks really nice so it will be interesting to compare.
900p looks fine, to test this on my monitor what res would I use?
"Even if the price of the Xbox One was only 299 it would still be overpriced for the abysmal graphics performance compared to the PS4 and the fact that the core component of the system, Kinect, is the single most hated thing in all of gaming."
I am getting sick of this BS! stop spreading doom and gloom articles, I have both consoles and to call the Xbox Ones graphics abysmal is f**cking pathetic, so far the differences between the two are not even that noticeable an...
You cannot disagree with fact, you want Xbox One owners to accept fact but not that my basic PC beats a PS4, the PS4 is brilliant no doubt but since I have gone back to PC building it has opened my eyes that's all.
