Forums - Microsoft - Devs increasingly expecting graphical parity between PS4 and Xbox One

Azerth on 12 February 2014

All they mean is that once ms gives them the new sdk games will start being the same resolution but yes ps4 games will run better

Itll be like how it was this gen multi games running better on the 360 then the ps3 but this time there will be a bigger gap

Xbox fans don't discuss these things with other vgchartz members all they are going to do is bash you discuss them in xbox nation. I have discussed power differences with many developers all they had to say both were equal in power almost just ps4 is easier to develop and xbox one is a little bit difficult. All these people bashing xbox one don't even know anything about cpu, gpu, ram or any other component of console properly. They are here to bash xbox and Microsoft nothing else. If you want to discuss these things discuss them in xbox nation.


Yeah and I am Harry Potter's bestfriend...my behind.

You really won´t get the same game on the PS4 and XBox unless the PS4 version is intentionally gimped.

It is as far as we know better in every single hardware category .

(aside from the CPU clock speed which is still unknown for the PS4...and even then an insider said that you "can get more out of the PS4´s" which implies that the overhead is probably far less on Sony´s system)

Well, Ps3 is a superior console than the Xbox 360 and yet GTA V was achieved in parity. Sure, an extra DVD was needed with the 360 version, but still!

I agree that the gap will close, but parity is out of the question.


Of c ourse. No parity between PC <> $consoles, no parity between PS4 <> Xbone.

No, they know exactly that it is true.

There are opinions ( I like game X more than game Y)

...and then there is math (PS4´s GPU is more powerful)

If they expect parity and it happens in their games the only explanation is they've dumbed down the PS4 version.



 

The PS5 Exists.

No amount of PR, fairy dust id going to make up a 40-50% gpu advantage. These devs are just putting their PR hats on, as many devs said the opposite. But keep cherry picking, the proof is in the pudding, which we have seen big advantages for PS4.

Man, this GPU disparity keeps growing and growing. Just a matter of time before people claim PS4 has double the power.

The real takeaway from this is developers are learning how to better utilize the hardware.

I have been saying that since day 1 of both specs leaked.  Just wait for GPGPU and Sony's first party games to come out...

People have been saying about 50% since the PS4 and X1's launch (there are plenty of articles on the topic going back months, stating that same statistic). There is debate on how much of an effect on games that will have in the long run, but anyone who tries to claim the difference doesn't exist on paper is either an idiot or has a rather blatant bias.

Or both i suppose :P

Not sure why people bring up ps3, totalyl different architecture, has a weaker GPU, and worse ram setup. The gap is a lot bigger with Ps4 having better GPU by a wide margin, better memory bandwidth, and similar architecture means it is easy for devs to just use that extra power instead of having to code differently for ps4.
