But that gif was horrible and very badly done. check thoses png on a native 1080p display:

And remember that the sharpening filter is perfect for compressed or downsampled media. But when you compare on a native screen, the illusions are shattered.

Wow, if people still cant tell them apart there is clearly something wrong with their eyes. Colors are much more vibrant on PS4 and everything is just sharper, I dont even need to zoom in to see the difference.

The difference is easy to see but as to which one is better I still couldn't tell. The PS4 one seems too light and the boat seems blurry, the leaves in the tree look better though. There isn't one of the two that makes me go "Wow, this is much better" or "Damn, this looks bad".

Then you'd be able to once you see them on a 1080p tv screen. But just by looking at those pics on my monitor its very apparent which one is sharper, has a higher resolution, more vivid colors and better AA. The disparity in graphics is bigger than any PS360 multiplat game. I was anticipating true next gen multiplats to be better on PS4 but honestly didnt expect cross gen games that dont push HW to look better as well.
