There's no point in comparing the PS4 and Xbox One versions when they're pretty much the exact same thing.

Digital foundry points out how "pretty much" some games are not the same thing. While obviously games like this lego thing don't mean anything in terms of the game at hand, if you watch some of their side by side videos from cutscenes in some games you can see where the different systems excel in different areas. Seeing fps dips on 1 system for heavy particle effects, heavy shadow/lighting effects or Moving quickly through detailed cities etc, like I said tho while it means that 1 version of.. lego hobbit is going to be less cool it would give you an idea as to which system would handle something like GTA5 better or up close and flashy fireball filled things like Street fighter 4 Next Gen editions.

-If the devs give the ports the proper time they deserve ofc!

Well I mean that none of these comparisons matter overall. But nothing realting to video games matter is the grand scheme of everything, so...


In terms of the planet you will live for approx 1/17millionth of the earths life if you live to a ripe old age of 100 ... so yeah play video games or be the next shakespear/Einstein in the grand scheme of things human life even in it's entirety would not add up to a a tiny fraction of a % of the life of our planet.... and I mean all human life from finding fire from the skies outside our caves to when we rain fire down on all the nations of the world and end everything that has happened in our reign on the planet.

That being said! 1080p on both consoles! woohoo.

How many people were gaming at 1080p in early 2004?

A lot of gamers were running 1600x1200 on CRT at the time, which is virtually the same number of pixels just at 4:3 aspect ratio.

True story

My 6 year old nephew was playing that lego marvel demo on my PS4. his 2 year old brother was playing with actual lego. When he looked at the tv he grabbed his lego and pressed it up by the screen whilst talking in baby language.

I jumped up in my screens defense and removed him from it. Then i looked at his mum and said, at least his observative eough to know that the game (dhudfhud) is playing is all lego stuff.


Point of the story, well its more interesting than that "face off"



Nobody's perfect. I aint nobody!!!

I didn't know that.

Was it native though? Even if the monitors existed to support it, could GPUs of the time handle that amount of pixels? In a high end game, anyway?

But the joke of this thread is that it isn't - the PS4 is downsampling from a higher resolution to improve AA.

Hopefully a temporary thing. Otherwise the number of threads and discussion on vggaf will be cut by half.
