Deceptive is the fact that Microsoft always tries to fool uninformed people, which is exactly what they're doing with PUBG. You will find that 70% of X1 fans believe that PUBG is console exclusive, which it won't be. Microsoft purposely writes "CONSOLE EXCLUSIVE" and "GAME PREVIEW EDITION" in two different colours, instead of writing "CONSOLE EXCLUSIVE GAME PREVIEW EDITION". And they do stuff like this every time. Call it what you will, I call it shady marketing and no...that's not how marketing usually is supposed to work, at least not here in Europe.

Yet Sony advertises the PS4 Pro as a true 4K console on TV here... 

Some games run in true 4K on the PS4 Pro

No they run in native 4K, TRUE 4K is checkerboard/dynamic resolution according to Microsoft.

You shouldn't even bother, since he probably has some new excuse that defends that beforehand...

BTW, even "dynamic 4k" is a lie since most  patched games run at 1440p-1800p..

You're so funny, it's a 4K capable machine but Sony never said it it's the only machine that could do that. Sony marketing says dynamic 4K gaming, 4K media. Dynamic 4K was from the start described as using different methods to create a 4K output. Microsoft on the other hand pretended the 1X was something different, when in reality it is doing the exact same, just at a bit higher resolution and in most cases sub 4K. So of course you're going to state that it's ok to call checkerboarding and dynamic resolution "true 4K"?! 

Here is Microsofts official "true 4K" definition from their website.

But it doesn't matter to you blinded fools. You just like being lied to. 

You completely ignored my point. “Dynamic 4K is also a lie since 80% I’d patched games run around 1440p. 

Did you even read my post?

i never denied that Microsoft lied.



Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.

Can we stay on topic



Halo MCC will sell 5+ million copies(including digital)

halo 5 will sell 10 million copies(including digital)

x1 will pass ps4 in USA, and UK.

64-70k fw in U.K. Physical only. That's behind only halo 5, gears 4, and titanfall 1 for Xbox.

Dynamic 4K implies that various methods will be used in order to enhance the picture on 4K TVs, that's exactly what it suggesting. At their initial presentation (the PS4 Pro unveiling) Sony clearly clarified that games will use those to varying amounts. It's not in Sony's hands how the developers decide to use what, but at least Sony didn't pretend the Pro was something it isn't..that's the whole point of my argument.

But ok, sorry CGI-Quality for being part of the derailing. Gonna quit the topic now.

Agreed. Please bring the topic back to PUBG. You can talk about resolutions and "who lied about what" elsewhere.

I like stuff to stay on topic as much as the next guy.  But, if all the threads on this site stayed on topic, imagine what it would do to ad revenue.  

With that said, PUBG is currently at the top of my list.  Can't decide whether to buy it for PC or Xbone.  Generally, I prefer console gaming.  But, if it sucks on console....

Ha! Another decent amount of physical copies. You actually get a cover and stickers with the code. I got physical copy just because it was actually cheaper...
