So it's not P2P? Wow I didn't know that. I was against paying to play online but if the games all have dedicated servers that would be worth it for sure. Can you choose from a list of servers on PS4?

Edit: Sorry for the slight derail.

More power is always better than less power; it gives you the choice how to allocate the extra power; easy as that.
PS4>One(hardware, power), It's better to accept the obvious, rather than turning around. In the end every console can deliver a great game experience.

Is that resolution and fps or only textures and lighting. The difference is obvious, but I can't clearly attribute that to resolution and fps.

I'm pretty sure I can't see the diff between 1080 and 900. I can see the difference between 720 and 1080 but I don't think we have that situation between Xb one and PS4.

And why tdo these articles quote people from studios I've never heard of before, and will probably never hear of again?

2 weeks ago I played Borderlands 2 PC and was downsampling from 4k.(games look so fucking fantastic when there is no aliasing at all!) The game was barely playable and I was skyping with a friend and told him "if I had to guess i'd say it runs with 16-18 frames per second" because he was thinking about getting a 4k monitor and asked me for advice and if my GPU could handle 4k (his is a bit slower) then I used fraps and what did I get? 16-18 FPS

:)

Resolution is harder since our eyes have no good motion resolution AND there is no normal consumer TV/Monitor that has 1080p motion resolution. If a game is in slowmo or its a still you can see it but when playing a game its barely noticeble.

absolutely easy as hell to tell the difference,takes 1 second especially if you see it side by side

It's the same on both consoles.. Sony and MS exclusives have dedi servers, third party games = it's up for the devs to decide what to do.

And no, you can't pick servers. Consoles don't "do" servers like PC games do. That goes for both xb1 and ps4.

I doubt playing in the living room is the normal environment. Some play in dorm rooms, close to the tv or monitor, others in their bedroom. I have my man cave with projector and comfy couch with cup holders. And before wireless controllers I was always close to the tv...
TV's keep getting bigger as well, sit 8ft away from a 60" screen mounted on the wall, plenty room for a table.

Native 1080p first for me. I've lived with the console blurries for 20 years. (FF7 with projector on 72" screen, that was blurry :) Not that 720p is bad, just takes a bit longer to get used to, harder to identify / see things coming on screen.

No idea if you can choose from a list, don't have a Ps4, just google'd it :)  PS4 has dedicated servers, and also allows for private (which are P2P), but I would imagine the private servers are developer dependant.

Most non hardcore gamers will not notice the difference between 900p and 1080p.  
I myself have trouble telling a 30fps game from 60fps, and cant really tell a difference between 900/1080 though screen tearing is obvious.

Also, bigger res. differences like 720-1080 are a lot more obvious...when playing titanfall, I noticed that it did not look near as good as some of the other games I had played such as F5, or Ac4.

Personally, I notice sub-native resolutions far more in motion than screenshots because minor edge aliasing turns into edge shimmering which is more apparent and much more pronounced than when rendered at native resolution.
