It's hilarious to me reading the responses from this thread when for a year now on this forum, DF's words have been treated as gospel to paint this agenda that there is a massive power difference between the two consoles. But now that this same outlet says this power difference hasn't amount to diddly squat at the end of the day, oh now DF is a joke and they're biased or something.

I own a PS4 and Xbone, what in this article isn't correct? There's nothing happening games wise on one that's not possible on the other. You basically get a toggle higher vegatation or some slightly better textures or a higher frame rate.

Time will tell whether this is due to it being early in the game or diminishing returns where even with the power advantage, it doesn't mean all that much when the games are actually being played.


Nothing as remotly good looking as Drive club or Infamous on X1, not even close.

its a bit more then just vegatation.  

Infamous? It's 30fps, looks lifeless, and some areas of the game are downright ugly. It's far from one of the top two titles I would use to show off my PS4. It has purty special effects and an awesome photo mode, that's about it. Either way you're missing the point of the article and my post you quoted. Is there anything gameplay wise in Infamous 3 that the Xbone could not do? No. It could make the exact same game, just slightly less resolution.

I own Driveclub, it does look good. And the weather patch really drowns out some of the more glaring visual flaws. But if you're trying to tell me that given an extra year to work on Forza 5, plus time after release to finish up a post-launch weather patch, Turn 10 could not produce something "remotly" as good looking as Driveclub, you're sadly mistaken and there's not much point in continuing the discussion any further with your head so deep in the sand.  I mean, is there even another 1080p60 racer out on next gen consoles yet? Idk what NFS pushes but it's not too impressive either way.

But again, even if this were correct (it's not), what's in Driveclub that Xbone cannot do? Autolog was doing what DC does years before DC came out. That's the point of that part of the article. That extra power, but nothing substantial has come out of it yet.

I guess we will find this out soon enough, with Forza 6 more than likely being released this year. After the downgrade debacle with Forza 5, I wouldn't count on it.
