Is it just me or are devs making this a bigger deal about this? Last gen if multiplats weren't equal then the PS3 was the worst version and by a noticeable amount (ie. Bayonetta, Orange Box etc..) and devs seemed like they didnt give a crap about trying to equalize it.

So why now? Is MS paying or demanding it knowing that the PS4 is now the better choice for devs? Or are devs just being lazy and if they cant produce 1080p/60fps on both consoles then makes it easier to not put in extra work to strive for that setting? I honestly don't know, just my thoughts.


MS and Sony are two different companies. MS is more aggressive about PR than Sony is even though Sony is trying their best to be at their level there.

Oh no, a game coming out in 7 months or so might possibly have similar resolution??!!



It is near the end of the end....

This parity bs needs to stop.

Make the best game you can on whatever platform.

fantastic, another dev holding back a game on PS4 because of inferior hardware on the other console


Annoying how parity is being implemented this gen with a significant power difference, vs last gen with a minor difference albeit harder to programme hardware

Liek with everything in any industry its all about the $.  Like many say MS has loads of its and Sony is near broke, put one and two together.

i'll take that to mean their E3 game trailer is going to look nothing like the game. getting "ubisofted" if you will.

That was confirmed PC footage.

Parity is fine.  Why should devs spend the extra hours and manpower on making the ps4 version look 5% better than the XBO version?  That doesn't benefit them in any way.


Huh?  They don't need extra time same architecture one is more powerful.  It is not fine,  ever.  Each platform should be utilized properly.  

It requires more time.  When MS stepped in to get Diablo to 1080p on XBO when Blizzard could not, it wasn't one simple line of code. 

 

Congratulations, you have just contradicted yourself!

Poor MS apparently spent all their parity monies on Batmans and couldn't save any for Calls of Duty :(
