I am getting tired of this being "News" every time a new game comes out. Then again MS did this to themselves when they said there wouldn't be a big difference. If they would have said "It's not gonna be competitive specswise, but our gameplay will make up for it" (Like Nintendo did with the Wii. NOT THAT IM SAYING THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT BIG) ; then no one would care and everyone would accept the difference. But MS made a big deal out of it, and now the fact checkers are doing what they do... |
Exactly. If Penello and Nelson had kept their mouths shut on the power difference, instead of making up poor reasonings on why the raw specs weren't that important and statements like "Can't wait for the truth to come out," then graphics comparisions wouldn't have been pushed like they are, now. Sure, they would have been done, as they always are, but now they are becoming the main focus. Partly as a way to throw it in MS's face, but also to throw it in the faces of Xbox fans who decided to push the narative that the difference was less than the PS3 and 360, when in fact it's probably the biggest difference we've ever had between two of the most powerful consoles of a gen. As well as those who made big deals about small details last gen, but now downplay large differences in graphics and/or resolution/FPS.
I see things getting worse, not better, as devs try to push their games even further. While PS4 games will be running 1080P and 30/60 FPS, I see many of the One's future titles being 720P and 30FPS. Well, unless they are going to gimp the game graphically to reach 900P/1080P, like Forza did.
