Xbox fans are pretty adamant that graphics quality between third party games won't be different in the future, and I'm surprised no one has pointed this out yet.
Look at multiconsole games on the PS360. The PS3 is harder to develop for so just about every game is led on the 360 and ported over to the PS3 afterwards. The majority of games are identical with few better performing on the PS3, some are worse on the PS3 but good enough that you won't notice the difference without a framerate counter or a seeing them side by side, and then there are the bad ports which include some of good games like Skyrim, Bayonetta, and Dead Island.
Xbox fans have bashed the PS3 for having poor ports ever since GTA4. A game where differences were mostly unnoticeable on a system that was the same or more powerful than its competitor but harder to develop for. So this time the PS4 is 50% more powerful and you don't think the Xbox One is going to have their own Skyrims, Bayonettas, and Dead Islands?
What I expect for the first couple of years is that developers will use the Xbox One as the lead console and do rush ports to the PS4. With a console that's 50% more powerful, they really don't have to put as much effort in getting it running well, but once first and second party devs like Naughty Dogs, Quantic Dreams, and Santa Monica start pushing out games t hat look better than the Dark Sorcerer tech demo, what then? You expect third party devs to still lag behind? What's going to happen is that the games will be developed for the PS4 then downgraded on the Xbox One to where it can actually handle it. Some developers may even run PS4 games at lower resolution, matching the Xbox One so they can run higher quality graphics at a lower pixel count than worse graphics at a higher pixel count. Just like Ryse did for Xbox One.
I'm just saying. If you think the Xbox One quality of games will keep up with the PS4, you're setting yourself up for disappointment. Atleast you can always buy a PS4 as your multiconsole system when that happens, right?
