I think it makes more sense to look at what visually demanding games PS4 is doing at 1080p. I mean there is a lot of content hitting 1080p on X1 as well.

If developers are obligated to support Series S, I think MS will allow them to be flexible. Hence, no 1080p minimum. If a studio feels they rather drop resolution than visual settings, they should have that option. I also think image reconstruction and dynamic resolutions will help the overall presentation.

Sorry, but I insist. 1080p is such an old resolution, I have been using it for my PC since 2010, and many did even earlier than that.

We already have people complaining that current generation games look blurry / soft in 1080p, so should we really look forward to NEXT GEN visuals in 900p?

That would look absolutely horrible... 1080p should be the minimum, otherwise I don't predict great sales for Series S, especially since Xbox One / One S is known for being 900p machine for past 7 years, let's no kid ourselves, majority of third party games are still 900p on One.

I could literally list like 200 of them if I looked at 2013-2020 Triple A games released.

Let's not forget Xbox One X often delivers 3X to 4X resolution of base PS4 and Series S is supposed to be faster than One X. Why would go back from 2160p on One X to 900p on Series S with next gen visuals?

1080p or bust IMO! This should be the minimum and most common resolution, with less demanding games going up to 1440p (like Next Gen Fifa)

There are probably more Xone games that run in 720p than 1080p... You're saying we already have current gen games like GOW in 4k on current gen consoles and we should expect nothing less from a next gen console. What you're forgetting is that only very few people upgraded to a mid-gen console and experienced this, while the rest was fine with 1080, hell even 720p in flagship titles like Halo 4/5.

I think the problem here is that we don't really know what next gen graphics mean as we haven't seen it yet. But wouldn't you be disappointed if we would be playing almost the same games we're playing now, just in 4k and a higher fps? Don't we want to see completely new things and an even bigger leap from say RDR1 to RDR2, which by the way, run at almost the exact same resolution on 360 and Xone.
