Forums - Gaming Discussion - PS4 vs XB1 Graphics Discrepancy Not As Big As Last Gen?

 

Which gen is the discrepancy greater

PS4 vs XB1 323 77.46%
 
PS3 vs 360 93 22.30%
 
Total:416

Yeah, just want to point out that anyone using Bayonetta as an example is going to lose some credibility.

this gen by far. last gen we had people pointing out differences in resolution and frame rate in games that had around 5-20% discrepancy, this gen its about 50-125% difference and people are trying to minimize it. not to mention there were many 3rd party games that looked and performed better on ps3 than xbox, the reverse can not be said this gen

I know, that's why I said it was the only one that was immediately noticeable.

What a ridiculous conclusion, especially from someone I thought was more educated on the subject. We all know why multiplats suffered on the PS3 for the first few years, and that is the complicated architecture of the Cell. As the years went on, however, devs got the hang of programming for it and multiplats 9.99 out of 10 looked pretty much the same, with maybe a few minor differences. What we are seeing now with the PS4 and XBO is some differences in texture AND AA AND sometimes vegetation (Shadows of Mordor comes to mind), PLUS a damn big gap in resolution AND sometimes FPS. So, the differences are actually larger, now.

Of course, there are also examples mid-late gen where the PS3 version actually outshined the 360's. So, BHR-3, you honestly think we are going to start getting ~95%-99% parity (non-forced, of course) or even better looking mulitplats on the XBO compared to the PS4 versions? I'll help you out. The answer is a big, fat NO!

+ its not very clever to make a comparaison between a first year and all a generation



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

 

And when the biggest game of the gen came out, the ps3 version of gta5 was best.

What does that have to do with anything?  The Bayonetta situation wasn't about the limitations of the PS3, it was about Sega and Platinum screwing up badly.  The only thing it came be used as proof of is that they released a bad product, which they've said themselves.  It would be dishonest to suggest otherwise.



ITT: Let's pick the worst games when it comes to PS3/X360 comparisons and make them a fact.

After a page this thread already stinks.
