are you trying to say PS4 versions of multiplats are the better versions, but that shouldnt matter because the average person will only play one or the other so they wont perceive a difference?


Yes I am saying that the PS4 versions generally have had better frame rates and higher res.  No, I am not saying that it actually makes the game better.  My point was that almost every multiplat game has nearly identical gameplay.  If the framerate and small graphical differences during gameplay really matter, I would like to see it.  I've watched the same comparisons online and each time I can see the differences.  BUT, the differences are not perceptable while actually playing a game.  If that is the case, are they really any different?


ah okay i get it,  so because you have the ability to lie to yourself about how big the differences are, everyone else is a sheep for caring about what they purchase.  Makes lots of sense.  (my 8yo can spot the difference between900p and 1080p)

One of them is better,  If someone isnt devoted to a console or have all their friends only on one,  then they need to find a differentiating factor. why would they buy one that they know techinically isnt as good as the other?

Were there differences between 360 and PS3 multiplats? If yes (which there were - and they were rarely as big as they are now), then the answer here is clear.

Please go to the site Xbox 360 vs Ps3 headtohead and watch their analysis especially the first ones and then tell me if there was any big difference on multiplats last generation.

Which aids my point. As I said, rarely were the differences big - but there were differences. This time around, the differences are much more pronounced.

If you went to the site you would have seen that the difference went to such an extent were xbox 360 games played perfectly fine and had good graphics meanwhile ps3 games where blurry and had a barely playable framerate. The difference in this gen is the least pronounced of each console gen due to developers trying to reach parity.

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


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.


I'm just going to inform you that your TV is the reason you can see a difference. The magical number is 42" for 1080p to be noticed in comparison to 720 and lower resolutions. If you have a 32" 1080p TV you are just wasting time in argument. 

For 4k, you can't tell difference at 50" that magical number is something like 80" 

So don't go in to an inferiority arguement with resolutions unless you know the other side of it. TVs are the deciding factor here.

Yes. Next question.


the obvious response to your comment would normaly be - Baaaa,  Baaaa

 

But, I did ask the question didn't I!    :)


Whether you can tell the difference between 50-100% more power (depending on who you ask) is on you. The ps4 does have better multiplats. Where the true power shines is how much better the exclusives looks though.

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...


Rofl.. Im sitting way to close when i play lol

I am aware that my TV is the reason I can see A difference.  My point this entire time has been that I find it hysterical that you have people who see a game in 900p and think "that's ugly" when in reality it is a miniscule difference from the 1080p game.  As I said, I would like to see someone who can accurately and consistently call out those games and their exact line counts.  At that point, I might start believing the over-reactions to 180 lines of difference.

how many pixels does your TV have and why did you waste your money on a 1080p tv when you can't see the difference?


I can tell when something is 480, 720, or 1080.  my response didn't say anything about not being able to see the difference in the standard settings for television.  My response said show me someone who can say, by looking at a game on the screen, "oh that one is 900p" and then "that one is 784p", or "that one is 1080p".

People don't need to be able to recognize the specific pixel count to see a difference. That would be like saying you need to be able to count all 10k people in a crowd to notice if 3 - 4k of them leave (about the pixel difference between 900p and 1080p).

Some see a big difference, some barley anything. It's all a matter of perspective, reference and standards.

There seems to be a lot of anger at Sony for Microsoft choosing a media centre instead of a powerful gaming machine. Sony don't get off scott free either, their machine should be about 10-15% more powerful to handle 1080/60 with ease instead of making it a touch and go challenge. In truth both machines should provide that, all the astro turfing and PR spin in the world won't change the facts for intelligent informed people.

I agree with you on that.  The way some people talk about it though you would think the 900p is 8-bit Super Mario and the 1080p is IMAX 3D Avengers movie.
