The Latest Image Problem for Microsoft's Xbox One

Microsoft's (MSFT) Xbox One and Sony's (SNE) PlayStation 4 are slated to hit American retailers in less than a month, and launch details are still shifting. While pre-order stocks are mostly accounted for and both systems are likely to sell out of their launch production, a highly competitive industry dictates that early success is more important than ever. Although it's been known for a while that the PlayStation 4 has better hardware than the Xbox One, recent news that Activision Blizzard's Call of Duty: Ghosts will offer better resolution on Sony's platform has the potential for a major impact. What does this development suggest for the future of the Xbox One?

Last I checked, there's is zero confirmation Ghosts is running at 720 on xbone.

Why not wait for confirmation?

If it is running in 1080.... 70% of this piece is filled with wrong information.

MasterCornholio3846d ago

They already confirmed it to run in 1080p on the PS4 which is why I don't understand why they haven't confirmed the Xbox One version yet unless that version is inferior to 1080P.

All it takes is an simple tweet from an Activision employee.

This site has shares in Microsoft and even THEY can see the problems they're facing.

While it's about time the smug grin was wiped from the face of the Xbox division, it's not just themselves they're letting down with silly decisions, but the gamer and the industry too. :(

Gamers need there to be STRONG competition in order for companies to strive to keep their custom by providing better gaming experiences.

Early signs for the coming generation are equal parts exciting and troubling...

ShowGun9013846d ago

if these companies had ANYTHING positive to say about COD ghosts graphics they would have said it already.

...and they did.

it looks "fantastic"

no numbers, just an opinion. remember, this is the kind of crap you get when the answer isn't what they WANT to say. if its positive they say it, if its negative, its NDA's and corporate double talk all the way...

All Call of Duty Games Ranked from Worst to Best

BLG writes: "Call of Duty has to be the most recognizable franchise on the planet. They didn’t get that way by only making a handful of games.

COD has a long and storied career. Launching as a PC WW2 first-person shooter, Call of Duty has gone through numerous makeovers and been on just about every system. The series has gone through some serious highs and tragic lows. I’ll be looking at each Call of Duty game, the good the bad, and the ugly."

Vanguard better be at the fkn bottom. Can’t believe ppl haven’t eviscerated that game with all its lacking

Minimoth811d ago

Yeah, it's close to the bottom. There are a couple of worse ones. Infinite Warfare definitely deserves its place.

KyRo811d ago

There's a number a lot worse than Vangaurd. It's also a lot better than that car crash Treyarch released before it.

XbladeTeddy811d ago

World at War is my favourite. Didn't know the N-Gage had a Call of Duty.

MadLad810d ago

Same for me.
I was never huge into Call of Duty, but I sunk a lot of time into WaW.
Both the campaign and the multiplayer are on point. Wouldn't mind a remaster.

I quit on CoD for a long while. Though I'm the odd man out that actually really enjoyed the campaign for WWII, being I got it through Humble monthly way back when.

TheLigX811d ago

I really enjoyed the Infinite campaign. Multiplayer... not so much.

Yppupdam811d ago

I agree, The Infinite campaign feels more like it's own thing that they slapped the CoD name on. If it stood on it's own, (sans the CoD name) I think it could have been it's own scifi franchise. And a damn good looking game, to boot. I never bothered to play the multiplayer.

victorMaje811d ago

MW 2019 apart from the desastrous file sizes is way better than AW.

MadLad810d ago

That was one I grabbed for Playstation because it pretty much just came out during the Redbox purge of videogames, and I got it for dirt cheap.

It was great coming home to an update every night, and watching one game eat up almost half my console's memory.

Amplitude811d ago (Edited 811d ago )

Will get disagrees but Infinite Warfare campaign was really good. Decent story, set pieces were amazing and if it didn't have the CoD game on it I'm sure people would have been more into it. Advanced Warfare was alright too. Titanfall 2 was just 1000 times better than both but I enjoyed them for their campaigns. I literally barely gaf about the story I'm in it for the set pieces and 5 hours of being stoned watching cool nonsense happen if I'm in the mood to play a CoD campaign. If I'm looking for a deep plot I'm gonna go somewhere else.
Ghosts was the worst story-wise though lol that cliffhanger ending was so bs.

Also MW 2019 was sick and is one of the best CoD games in yeeeears not sure why it's so low on this dude's list. Campaign was great, multiplayer was great and Warzone was fun for a while. Over it now but shrugs.

Beat the Vanguard campaign too but I can't even remember a single thing about it other than that it felt like it was 45 minutes long. Might be the most forgettable thing I've ever played lol just fully erased from my brain

Wore implementation I've ever seen,.. guess it just does not work all that great on every engine

MarkyMark891772d ago (Edited 1772d ago )

Agree, but this gives me hope that one day Ray Tracing can be a software based feature and not require some type of proprietary hardware to achieve. Software will always outpace Hardware so it could happen, but I feel like its going to take a lot more time to achieve the same level that RTX has already shown glimpses of so far. Really just waiting for Cyberpunk to see if RTX is actually something viable. I think if anybody can truly showcase RTX Features it would be Projekt Red.

zeal0us1772d ago

Too bad it doesn't make Mankind Divided a better game.

starchild1772d ago

It doesn't need to, the game was already fantastic, imo.

zeal0us1772d ago

Human Revolution was a better game and not to mention longer.

isarai1772d ago

Reshade is not raytracing, its a screen space post processing effect. Thats like calling SSAO "global illumination"
