Whether you can tell the difference between 50-100% more power (depending on who you ask) is on you. The ps4 does have better multiplats. Where the true power shines is how much better the exclusives looks though.

Wow, did you just really say you can tell the difference between 50-100% more power?  Was this about console exclusives?

It's not the power, its the software.  THe software has to make use of the power.  Even then, my argument has never been that I or anyone else can't see the difference.  The difference is well documented in technical terms.  I challenge you to see the differnece while actually playing a game. 

In response to your first question... no. I'm saying that the ps4 is 50-100% more powerful.  And about the exclusives, yes, they look far better than xbox exclusives. And yes, if someone changes that settings on a game I'm playing on my PC, I very quickly notice the difference. 

Like I said, no one(or not anyone sane) is arguing that the XB1 is equal to or more powerful thatn the PS4 anymore.  The debate seems to be more in line with what the real differences are when actually playing a game.   Most multiplats at this point have very similar resolutions - 900p upscaled to 1080p/1080p vs 1080p.  The frame rates seem to vary a bit.  But, an upscaled 900p image while actually playing a game on a large screen tv and a 1080p image on the same screen while actually playing a game would be imperceptible.  I am not saying there isn't a difference.  I am saying that if you are actuallly playing a game, you can't possibly be looking at the graphical differences and still interact with the game(unless your hiding behind a bush or rock).  Sure, when you watch a gameplay viseo on line that compares the 2 you can study the differences because you are not interacting in the game.  A comparison to a PC that is more likely on a small 27" monitior or small doesn't really work, as you would have to stop gameplay to change the settings.


First off, I know no one (except a few morons) is still trying to argue that the xbox one. And not once have I stated that this was your argument. I was saying that the power difference is quite perceivable. I don't know why people need to keep saying that it's 900p upscaled to 1080p, it really doesn't look any better than straight up 900p. I have a 4k monitor, so I'm technically playing my ps4 in 1080p upscaled to 4k. It doesn't really look different though. And 900p vs 1080p is a very noticable difference. Once again, I've come to my games before and noticed that the resolution was different. I was right. I don't get why it's so hard to understand this fact that I've previously stated. 900p and 1080p isn't MASSIVE, but 1080p is definitely a lot better.
