unless they are up-scaled ! lololol

MysticStrummer4247d ago

Yeah those "1080p" numbers on the back of 360 boxes have been lying for years. MS is continuing that proud deceptive marketing tradition with XB1 and their fans seem to love it.

*shrug*

BABY-JEDI4247d ago

Very clever comment

jackanderson19854247d ago

@mystic

the PS4 games are doing the same, specifically BF4 which has been confirmed as 900p although it says 1080p on the box

BBBirdistheWord4247d ago (Edited 4247d ago )

This is like a corvette vs porsche 911 comparison.
http://www.edmunds.com/pors...

Quote:
"Making the Corvette as quick and rewarding as a 911 is a big task, and it's been fully accomplished. The Corvette, when driven hard, is as good as the 911, maybe better. There, we said it.

That it costs, in this case, less than half as much is pure gravy.
But then there's the undeniable reality that the 911 is the better car. Whether we're taking our kids to school or adding subtle countersteer to correct that big slide, we'd rather have the Porsche. It's the car that wins our hearts so it's the car that wins this test."

---
(pretty much exactly like the ps4 vs xbo. This comparison is particularly apt because the ps4 costs less, yet reputedly has a bigger engine!)

The takeaway point is that while the xbo has poise and balance, the ps4 has a big truck engine.

who wins?
well... the conclusion is there for all to see.

""Looking At Pure Numbers, PS4 is More Powerful" Than Xbox One"

and in other news the sky is blue

Kleptic4247d ago (Edited 4247d ago )

at BBB...I can't say i agree with the two cars you used as an example...as the systems are too close in architecture...

I'd say...the PS4 is a 911 GT3, the highest performing naturally aspirated version of the 911 line...

the xbox one...is a base 911 with an overpriced back up camera...

mine doesn't make much sense, either...because the gt3 is way more expensive...but, whatever ha...

MysticStrummer4247d ago

@jack - Yeah Sony saw how many people didn't seem to care about the deception of upscaling and putting 1080p on the box, so they've adopted the same strategy. Luckily, PS4 won't have to do it as much as XB1 due to the power gap.

Same goes for paying to play online. In both cases we have MS fans to thank.

And we will see those numbers in action in exactly an hours time when the embargo on PS4 game reviews ends.

DARK WITNESS4247d ago

"Numbers Dont lie"... unless they are printed on the back of an xbone exclusive !

lololol

I am sorry, I can't help it. lolol

SL1M DADDY4247d ago

No they don't lie. In fact, the numbers tell us just exactly what the devs have going for them. When you have a great platform to start with you can achive much more than if you have a subpar platform to start with that is incapable of 1080p at 60fps.

Sometimes they do, look at insane uber-high end PC specs and the average graphics they output when compared to the PS3's specs and its respective output

no, not everyone knows this unfortunately. some people refuse to know

lifeisgamesok4247d ago

How those numbers translate to the screen hasn't been an advantage and won't be

Xbox One!

the pure numbers you be smoking be sending you crazy

Don't be mad Sony Yes Men y'all know I'm right

Battlefield 4: Xbox One

Looking at comparison videos you Xbox haters are coming up short

The Sony goggles you are wearing are clouding your judgment

I see the sacrifices for those extra pixels are less crisp images

You dudes are like zombies lol

BBBirdistheWord4247d ago (Edited 4247d ago )

The pure numbers also posited the ps3 as three times as powerful as the 360.

Of course, 8 years of games have proven these numbers to be somewhat incorrect.

Not sure why people keep saying Sony has no marketing budget. It seems they have plenty of $$ to keep promoting plenty numbers FUD.

Utalkin2me4247d ago

@lifeisgamesok

You're right im going to take a trolls word of what actually programmers and people that have hands on with each machine and have tested them side by side, they say PS4 wins. Anyways i haven't seen anything remotely close to Killzone SF, coming from Xbox1.

@BBBirdistheWord

Really 3 times more powerful huh? Care to post a link, where Sony said it was 3 times more powerful? It came with 3 times more stuff thats for sure.

BBBirdistheWord4247d ago

apologies.

Sony did not state they were three times more powerful with ps3 than the 360.

In fact they stated it was TWICE as powerful.
Thanks for picking me up on that.

Here's the link to this misrepresentation and various other furphies.

Ya its like the dude with a souped up civic in a drag race with a charger .... Its not about the numbers ! * gets smoked by 5 lengths

KrisButtar4247d ago

1920x1080 are some real numbers that did translate onscreen.

I don't know anyone who would buy a 720p TV(or up-scaled 1080p TV) with a native 1080p TV next to it for $100 cheaper and the same size. I play 3rd party games mostly and that is how the choice came down to me.

I will get my XB1 when Halo is out, and it keeps 4 player local play, but saying there is no advantage is a little naive

Joe9134247d ago

So I guess you know more than all the devs that has confirmed PS4 is more powerful and did you happen to see the IGN video where they put the PS4 and XB1 CODG side by side and it was clear that the PS4 version had more detail have the opinion that you want but when you feel the need to call ppl names just shows your maturity level I guess all these devs are zombies too huh. Look if the low resolution of the xb1 is ok with you then fine don’t call Sony fans names because they are happy next gen we are not getting the short end of the stick like current gen if resolution is not a big deal to you then you will still have fun games to play so no need to be mad.

Gore-Content4247d ago

So many devs speak out in favor of the PS4. But this is something IGN and the likes would never mention.

obliteratorFTW4247d ago

Ign, kotaku, polygon, all are biased sites. What more can you expect from them. Previous gen, even minor pixel differneces led to x360 being declared preferred platform by these sites, and now when the tables have turned, resolution doesn't matter anymore. Shame on this biased gaming journalism.

Blackdeath_6634247d ago

polygon is by far the worst in terms of bias, kotaku can't be taken seriously whomever their in favour with and IGN while they do try do gloss over the differences between the consoles if you ignore the content they put out for mainstream and just follow the content that is put out by the xbox and the ps4 editors you can still get some good info they will however always try to make it out like both consoles are equal

stuna14247d ago

And that tradition is likely to continue! Considering they are saying the Xbox1 version of COD Ghost is better because it has a slightly more stable frame rate. Yet the PC is experiencing issues with frame rate, and is the best version of the game without a doubt.

jimmyateham234247d ago

Ign is the worst, all they do is lick sonys ass

8 Worst PS4 Games So Far

Knack and The Order 1886, right ones

Alexander1Nevermind3316d ago (Edited 3316d ago )

Never played the Order but Knack was a good game imo. I enjoyed it more than Killzone Shadow Fall. I really don't understand all the hate it gets. It makes me wonder how many of you all actually played the game?

Slight edit: Not directed at the op just wondering if folks just jump on the hate bandwagon. I don't Judge Ryse or the Order because I haven't played them. I do agree SW Battefront was very disappointing indeed.

Aloy-Boyfriend3316d ago

I dunno what people expected from Knack to have become the punching bag of the PS haters and even fans. I thought it wqs a good couch co op launch game. It had flaws, but I had fun with it with my brother. It was a good throwback to the old days...

I could see whst Cerny and the team wanted to achieve with Knack. I think a sequel can be better

nX3316d ago

Clearly fanboy flamebait, there are much worse PS4 games than Driveclub, The Order 1886 and Knack.

jeenyus3316d ago

Not sure if there are many games on any PlayStation that are worse than Knack.
After all the hype it got, we got served some subpar PS1-like gameplay with gfx that were below PS3 day 1 releases.

You might have enjoyed it, it doesn't make it good. At all.

guitarded773316d ago

When Knack, Driveclub and The Order are considered your "worst games", I'd say you're doing pretty damn good. Not gonna say any of them were game of the year material, but I played all 3 and didn't think they were horrible.

uth113316d ago

Agreed. I enjoyed and finished knack, I had no idea it was a bad game until I later read it on the internet :p

bouzebbal3315d ago

omg the writer is such a moron..
DriveClub is the best racer i played since MK8.
Knack is an old school action platformer. if it's hard for him the i can understand it's one of the worst games.
And then he adds some games to the list that no one ever heard of, just to make it sound like he knows his shit. You fail you imbecile.

Ashlen3316d ago (Edited 3316d ago )

The Order is not bad.

I assume most people who would say it's one of the worst games haven't actually played it. The only thing really wrong with it is how short it is. The gameplay is good, the graphics and detail are off the charts and the story while lacking due to game length was interesting and could have really gone somewhere.

Knack, well, it was a rushed launch title so they could offer at least one family friendly game. It's not great but it is what it is.

Next_gen_20153316d ago

I dont think any Ps4 exclusive has been terrible. The low rated ones are just generic or too short

Ashlen3316d ago

Well... The Order was far from generic as far as the story went... I can't think of any other game set in an alternate 1800's Britain. And it's pretty much the same length and Ryse and the gameplay part of Quantum Break.

And Knack, again it was just a game for people to buy so the kids could have a game to play with the families new PS4.

But w/e everyone has their opinions.

Devilsknight3316d ago

Like in Chapter 7 where you pressed 🔺 once and walked forward for 2 min? Or the Chapter where you rotate a clock and watch a cutscene? Indeed, real great gameplay right there.
The Order was good looking and nothing else. The story was filled with holes and rather poorly written. "I have to show u something, follow me for 10 min to find it what it is. No, I cant say what it is, no time, lets talk about something else" Zzzzzzzz. Or the linear map design...

Nah. The Order was crap, this coming from a PS4 only owner. A polished turd is still a turd.

Orionsangel3316d ago

I still say The Order is a good game. It was just never finished. It ends abruptly. It's as if the developers ran out of money. It's a shame, I was getting into the characters and story. It needed at least 5 more hours, but it just ends all of sudden leaving so many plot holes in the story.

MollieRose3315d ago

DarXyde3316d ago (Edited 3316d ago )

The Order wasn't perfect and it left a lot to be desired, but I surmise the bulk of the disappointment comes from it being released as it was well beyond the launch window. It's incredibly beautiful, but short and shallow.

Be that as it may, I'd be hard pressed to call it one of the worst titles on the console. It has redeeming qualities and was made by a very capable studio. I think "disappointing" better describes what it was.

S2Killinit3315d ago

I couldnt even call it dissapointing as it has been one of my favorite games this generation. The smear campaign was dissapointing. The game is beautiful with some of the most fun gun battles i've experienced. I loved the story, it was unique and i hope there are sequels. The graphics are probably second only to Uncharted, and it had an original orchestral score which was awesome. All the bitching was instigated by the early smear campaign. "Its too short" even though its the same lenght as gears of war, quantum break etc. "it doesnt innovate" even thiugh it actually DOES. (Well more than some other games), "it doesnt have gameplay" well thats just wrong because at no point did i feel like i was playing a movie even though i was waiting for it since i had heard the rumours. Basically people like Stupid above are lying through their teeth.

S2Killinit3315d ago

@stupid
You are a lier. There is no way in hell the order should be concidered a bad game. People like you are are blatantly lying to peoppe, shame on you.

^Watch Dogs was way worse. I prefer a short game to one I can't even force myself to finish. I'm pretty sure The Order1886 wouldn't get so much hate if it was 5-10 hours longer.

This. So disappointed with how that turned out, so much potential. Even if DICE literally gave a graphical boost to Battlefront 2 it would have been a much better game, but now with this impostor of a Battlefront game the player count has dropped significantly (now lower than Battlefield 4).

I called Knack being crap when they announced. It was a throw away launch title much like 360's forgetable launch title, Kameo: Elements of Power. It's generic fluff that supposed to show you what the console can do, but both these titles left us yawning.

NotanotherReboot3315d ago

Kameo has a lot more depth, variety and better gameplay, story and characters. Knack isn't awful, but it's insanely mediocre.

More like most people including the critics hated but fanboys defend to the death...most definitely a fitting choice.

You can hate all you want but the vast majority on Metacriric liked the movie. And you know how metacritic works...the haters usually are the ones screaming the loudest.

gangsta_red3379d ago

Comic fanboys are a whole different breed.

But when you have critics and fans in unison panning it and talking about the same flaws as others saw for instance in The Order then there is definite truth to be told, not hate.

jb2273379d ago

I haven't seen it yet personally as I really can't stand Snyder & I think he's great at translating visuals from page to screen but pretty awful at translating characters & stories. Have you seen it? I know you are a big Superman fan...I know a lot of the fans are loving it but I think that is mostly down to just seeing the trinity on screen for the first time, and once the honeymoon period is over a few of those folks may change their tune.

gangsta_red3379d ago

I could seriously rant a whole page on what was wrong with that movie scene by scene. I did in the Filmwatch site, but I dropped a few spoilers over there.

jb2273379d ago

@gangsta

I may have to run that down & see what you've got to say about it. I made the mistake of hitting a list for the movie on Whatculture & they straight up spoiled the ending w/o including any kind of spoiler tag, so between that and the ridiculous amount revealed in the trailers themselves, I'm pretty sure I know every beat of the film already. Movie studios need to get smarter about editing, both in the movies themselves (I've heard that BvS had many issues in that regard) & the trailers revealing everything.

I'm still gonna give it a shot at the cinemas but my expectations aren't too high...
