Forza Motorsport 5 owes its 1080p visuals and 60 frames a second performance to Microsoft's furnishing Turn 10 with easy access to scalable servers, creative director Dan Greenawalt has told OXM. The ability to tap into Xbox Live Compute has allowed the developer to lavish more time and resources on the game's visuals and complex physics systems; without this advantage, it would have "struggled" to achieve Forza 5's final resolution.

You didn't read all the article, no?

"So, would [cloud AI] have been possible last generation? Sure. And last generation we could have done 1080p, 60fps. But we wouldn't have been able to do that and the physics we did in Forza 4. So Forza 4 was 720p and 60fps, with the physics we had. Now we're doing things in the physics that requires so much more computational power, we would have struggled to be 720p, 60fps."

He is saying if they won't to some physics in cloud the game would have struggled to be 720p, 60fps.

So offline = 720p@60fps.

yeah unless the cloud is actually not doing anything.

Why would they want to make their console look even weaker by saying it needs help from the cloud if it doesnt :S

I do not understand why you asked me if I read the article.

What you said ( the bolded bit) was my point.

The link was to support your statement, not to argue it.

Sony should just write back GT6 1080p with 1197 cars

I don't think this is a discussion MS really wants to have. I do have to laugh at them trying to talk up the cloud, while at the same time making their console look even weaker, while trying to say their console isn't that weak when compared with the PS4. It seems MS doesn't even know what message they're trying to push.

Hey guys, resolution isn't important stop talking about it!
Hey guys, check out our 1080p Forza, it's soooo beautiful.

Absolutely incredible how mixed their message has become.

Res matter for Forza...does not matter for 3rd pty as its upscaled to 1080p...so what really does matter for MS?

They really should hire some PR who knows what they are doing, they are so inconsistent they look like a bucnh of noobs just starting in the business...



RIP ps3, xbox360.

welcome home ps4 and X1

Cool

That's what we've all been saying, 1080P/Full HD is really cool.

I know HD is cool, I have been gaming on my PC for years.
