Oh trust me, sub 1080p on a 1080p screen and crushed blacks is something you easily spot...

So if someone asked you which console has the better versions of multiplatform games, you would tell them they're identical?

way to contradict yourself.

my tv is 1080 but i can always tell the difference between content on the tv being at standard def, 720p, or 1080p.  it is obvious and a massive change.  but then again,. i sit 6 feet from a 46 inch tv so according to the charts 4k is justifyable to my viewing configuration...

Why? If you wanna play with your friends play co-op games with them on the same couch, that's a much better and enjoyable way, secondly if one can't buy both consoles then buy one with the best multiplats and exclusives, and finally I do agree that framerate and resolution are not everything that's why I would always choose a ps3 over Xbox 360 even though the xbox 360 had the much better multiplats.

The technological differences are minimal, but PS4 make less mistakes. Xbox not only have a weaker hardware, but had things like paywalls and DRMs. People avoided that and went to PS4, now Xbox is trying to catch up. I choose PS4 because they are better prepared.

Well on my 50 inch Panasonic Viera I have never seen enough of a difference in multi-plat games for me to think "damn, this thing is ugly by comparison" when playing on PS3 or the 360 last gen.  Guess when I get the X1 eventually I can see if the "inferiority" is immediately noticed.

Literally, exactly what I was going to post.

Its simple reasoning really.

If the games are virtually identical, and the only difference is better resolution or framerate, the gaps of which where much smaller last generation but paradoxically mattered a whole lot more i.e 900p to 1080p is bigger then 720p to 800p but 800p mattered a lot more, and they cost the same price, 60$. Then the better version is obviously the one that has better framerate/resolution.

Why would you willingly pay the same price for a worse version of the game, even if you claim you can't tell the difference. It seems like purposely cheating yourself. The only justification that makes any sense is if you have reasons outside of the game, such as friends on the console to play the game with or already being subscribed to one of the Networks, or you really like the Tablet, lol touch screen hacking..., other than those there is really no valid reason.

The emperor has no pixels.

I fail to see the contradiction.  I stated that I can see the difference in standard def, 720 def, and 1080 def.  I want to see someone who can tell me where things are between those specific definitions.
