I see a lot of biases and selective reading on this thread. Theres good things and bad things about this article. We cannot just choose the ones that help our arguments.
MS demanding parity is out of the question a bad thing. They have the weaker hardware and the smalest install base so they have no right. And looking into the future I see a lot of developers just skiping the x1 if that continius.
MS ofering help when developers cant achive the best performance is a good thing. If they want to stand out then they have to put a little efort and not just fallback on thirdpartys devs to do all the work so then they can complaine about it. This is showing MS is working hard to put an end to this 900p vs 1080p nonsense, wich I highly doubt anyone can realy notice.
Choosing resolution over framerate is a mix. It can be good for some games, but some can really be damaged by this and diablo 3 is definetly one of thouse games. MS needs to think that maybe not everyone can see resolution diferences but everyone can see framerate drops and sony will autoatically win the best performance of the game. This could be a big gamble.
It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.
