I own both systems and it all depends on the online function. If this game has a killer online mode, then I'll buy it for XB1 because that is the pay service I have and I think it is superior to that of the PSN+. If it is like Assasssin's Creed 4 online mode, I'll pass on the online portion and get the PS4 version. It is nice that I can choose.
I read in an old Examiner article, that the devs clearly stated that the PS4 version could run at 60 FPS, but they wanted to maintain parity between all consoles.
But seriously, neither the resolution nor the FPS is the problem now, I think the game has been downgraded compared to the E3 reveal and the first PS4 demos because of the lowest common denominator in this new gen. Just watch the latest trailer.
Higher resolution and 1 hour of extra content, far superior controller, better online service for cheaper and with way more goodies and freebies, and better streaming with both Twitch and Ustream and all from a cheaper priced system with a company with a far stronger 1st party record. It's a no brainer. And mmm are your tears good Unholy one
Please explain to us how it has better streaming when PS4 can stream to both Twitch and Ustream, the only thing Twitch on X1 can do that PS4 doesnt is archive, but come on now, you know that'll just be patched in. Also, how Live is better? And better controller? really? Do you undrstand that subjective opinion is not fact?
So a service that gives tons of free AAA blockbuster games is inferior to one that doesn't really offer anything compared to it's competitor...yeah okay...very subjective based opinion.
I'll take my superior service, superior controller, superior resolution on every title and my extra $100 any...
here come the obvious comments.. now again all of a sudden "sony lies" and resolution doesn't matter it's all about the lies. "you can't just flick a switch to remove DRM" ring a bell?
now the arguments turn to the obvious opinion based since no factual arguments will work once again... "xbox controller is better" "xbl online is better (5 year old argument and widespread fallacy) " " i just don't like any of sonys [massive library of] games"
@dantesparda: Silly Xbox fans still think Xbox live gives them a better connection even though most games they played on the 360 where the same peer to peer connections used on the PS3. But whatever makes them feel better. smh
960p to 1080p? Ud need a magnifying glass and 50inch tv to notice any difference at all, first it was 720vs1080, then 900vs1080. Now 960vs1080. The gap is shrinking.
Nobody is crying. All of these "tears" comments are just showing your immaturity and fanboyism. Your incessant need to be "winning" this nonexistent competition.
I have a PS4. I have an XB1.
I have PS+. I have XBL Gold.
I can choose either version. It's strictly up to my opinion and preference.
FFS guys, all this fighting...and for what? Both versions pale in comparison to the PC version at 60fps with high quality anti-aliasing and whatever other advantages it will have.
The difference between 960P and 1080p is very small compared to the advantages the PC version has over both console versions.
There are other factors that remain to be seen. Which version has the most stable frame rate? If XO hits 960p (which isn't "barely" less than 1080p just because it's a number not far from 1080... you also have to count in the number of vertical rows of pixels in the image that are being left out) but keeps a better frame rate, it'd be the preferred version. However, if (as in the case of games like Ryse and Tomb Raider) it drops down into the teens, skip it.
And this whole argument over Xbox having the better online service is kinda dated. I'm not seeing any feature one has that the other doesn't at this point, though PS4 does give you more and better games IMO, even if they are only there for the duration of your subscription.
Those saying they'll get it on PC, sure. Enjoy that slightly better AA or 60fps on a machine that cost 3 times as much as a PS4. Just at min. spec, you're already looking at a min. of a $600-800 machine. Then you have the fact that drivers for the particular video card you chose don't work as well with this game as drivers for that other company's video card do, so you'll take a performance hit there until they bother to patch it, if they do.
For every advantage PC gaming has, it also has a disadvantage.
Arguing over any of it is dumb in the end. Just play your games. You liking it doesn't make it better, them not liking it doesn't make it worse.
Yes because ubisoft have such a great track record when it comes to pc ports. Didn't they only just patch black flag last week so that you could play it properly on high settings?
PC all the way, there's no point in bickering over resolutions when it's all at your finger tips. plus i don't have to repurchase it ever again once i change hardware.

Free "AAA Blockbuster" PS4 games on PS+ so far:
Outlast (year old budget steam game) Don't Starve (year old budget steam game) Contrast (newish budget steam game poorly reviewed) Dead Nation Apocalypse Edition (port of old PS3 DL budget game) Resogun (at least it's both good, and new! Kind of budget/arcadey though.)
Yup. No hyperbole at all in there.
Oh wait, you wanted older PS3 and Vita games to somehow count when assessing an online service for PS4? Well, if you have Flower, Flow and Soundshapes you will get a PS4 version as part of the cross buy program I guess. )
This is true, a no brainer would be to buy this on the best platform possible: PC.
I keep hearing how powerful the PS4 is and how it is the superior gaming system to have but it can't maintain steady frame rate at native resolution. What happened to this console generation?
PC>PS4 forever and that will never ever change, no matter what any fanboy says. Facts are facts and the PC will always be better.
So glad I didn't waste $400 on a crap console and put that money into my PC.
That is one small piece lasting a few seconds. And the lighting looks weird because the bridge is being selected and is being hacked. Look at the rest of the night run:
And if you notice those are two different cars - look at the tail lights. They may actually be from two different builds - last gen vs current gen. The video jumps around a lot like it was pieced together. Either way, I am getting it for the PS4.
And Arabicgamer remarked how the PS4 looked: http://www.thearabgamer.com... saying, " This game is absolutely stunning across the board with HD textures and beautifully rendered animations. For next gen systems, including PC’s, each rain drop will be an individual particular. This can be seen more clearly when using the focus mode or slow down feature."
If you would care to indulge me in how the Xbox1 one has just as good or if not better hardware then the PS4, please by all means do so. Otherwise your comment holds as much water as a broken glass.
Wow - they could make a movie from this Watchdogs Saga.
# Game ready to Release with Sony advertising for PS4 # Game gets delayed at last minute for no clear reason # XB1 releases with inferior GPU grunt than PS4 # Game bucks trend and issues almost parity graphics # Did MS pay for game delay despite Sony's advertising? # Did MS pay for parity in graphics to mask superior PS4?
There were two future games that were confirmed by the devs to be 1080p on xb1 so I agree. I believe they were multi plats as well. That's what happens when the system is harder to dev for.
Yes please. I normally always but both consoles at launch. This is the first gen I haven't because they honestly both suck eggs. Where's the games ?! Where's the 1080p 60fps we were promised. Seriously. Tired of hearing X1 vs PS4 cheerleaders claiming superiority when neither can achieve such a hallmark. I don't care if PC even costs more. At least don't run like slideshows.
TV is dying a slow death everywhere only the USA still bothers watching the crap (in dying numbers) and.. surprise surprise.. also about the only country in the world interested in XBone. The future is the internet not frigging cable and the PS4 has got apps down pat. Get with it. Its not about snapping TV=== while playing a game!!! The masses have spoken xbones
Maybe its true if you bought a TV system jcole. I bought a gaming system. This is N4G - News For or Gamers. Superior gaming system. Maybe you should post your question at N4TV.
Higher resolution 1 hour of bonus content playing with dual shock 4
its still amazing how things have turned around, last gen xbox360 had better 3rd party games and now its ps4. This is what happens when you make a cable box more than a gaming machine
Better twitch is this the new thing to say for fanboys? how so or you just mad ps4 users have been using it and ustream from launch. Better os/multitasking how so please explain.For me ps4 controller win hands down as it xbox controller has always been so uncomfortable for me to use seriously always give me hand cramp after short use and had to stretch my thumbs.So their is no best controller it depends on your hands.
@Koston while you are indeed right that the Twitch is an opinion I think that he's got a more then strong case on this one as for controller... I prefer my XB1 controller over my DS4 and as soon as a real DS4 controller comes out in the same make as a Xbox controller I'll quickly replace my current DS4. Also the XB1 does have better multi tasking... that is a FACT. It can run any application and a game at the same time. The PS4 does not boast this ability.
better controller lol yeh right, almost every gaming site has agreed that Dual Shock 4 is the better controller
Twitch oh that service that we have been enjoying since launch?
better OS no way in hell. MS designed this OS for kinect so its crappy and like windows 8 which also sucks.
get real man ps4 will sell 12-15 million by year's end. Its only gonna improve with more games so keep thinking of way to hate on ps4, all its gonna do is dominate like PS2 did
I have to wonder something ,but from the latest footage its more than obvious that the game has been downgrade in the graphics departemant!I dont know from what platform this last trailer is taken off but the graphics have taken a downgrade when compared with what they shown months ago has the PS4 VERSION!I hope that this 30fps are steady lock and not 30 fps with dips on new gen systems,especially seeing that the overall graphics,effects and etc.. have been downgraded.And frankly regarding resolutions and framerates better a full lock 30fps at 960p that 1080p with 30fps with dips below that.I guess im paying to see what will be the more stable of the next generation console versions.
Oh? Did it happen with first party exclusive games like Killzone: Shadow Fall single player (1080P 30 fps) and inFamous: 2nd Son (1080P 30 fsp) too? How about Knack? (1080P unstable 30-ish fps)
No more greatness...how quick we noticed the PS4 just could not keep up in the high end anymore.
Frame rate took the biggest hit along with some lighting, texture, and shadow detail. 30fps it is then. No more buttery smooth, more like coarse grits.
Funny how the Xbox is improving over time and the PS4 is losing its potential over time.
1080p at 30fps is nothing to brag about. every game for both next gen consoles should run at 1080p/60pfs. it is tech that has been around since before last gen.
This is my argument as well. I understand WHY people bring up resolution but since last year were we not expecting 1080p/60fps for all games on PS4?? Why is this still relevant? Only to talk down the XB1? When I see a headline such as this it baffles me! We all know what to expect from BOTH consoles.
Couldn't they just lower the resolution on PS4 to make it run at 60FPS? I mean, on the Xbox One I understand because draw distances might be affected if it goes below something like 900p, kind of what happened with Battlefield 4, but from 900p to 1080p there's not really THAT much of a difference, what makes a true difference in action games is the bump in frame rate to 60FPS... I'll take that any day over 1080p.
960p on XB1 and 1080p on PS4, with both running at 30fps? No way the PS4 can only do 30fps when the resolution of both consoles is that close.
Seems to me MS was able to buy partial parity on this game, and if I find out that this is the case, I am most definitely not going to buy this game new so that the publisher/devs/whoever don't see a dime of my money.
I think we can safely assume that this is in fact a parity thing, unless we find out that the XB1 version is gimped in other ways, like AA, texture-res and other things. But if both games have the same specs, except resolution, then we will know 100% that the PS4 version was gimped.
It sickens me to think that this parity BS is probably going to get worse as the generation continues. MS wants people to think that the tiny improvements via an updated SDK, or otherwise, will somehow make their console super powerful... when in fact it only looks that way because the PS4 versions are being intentionally gimped due to MS throwing tons of money at the right people.
This is why MS needs to GTFO. It's one thing if they release a sub-par console and people purchase the console knowing that fact, but it's another to ruin the experience for people who own the more powerful console by paying for parity.
Dude you suck!! So its 1080p/30fps because MS paid Ubisoft. Seems to me thats all they could get out the PS4 at that resolution. You have the better version out of both and your still mad. I notice fanboys always say dumb shit to start a wars. No different than what you just did!
These are first gen next gen titles that are tailored to scale per platform, since it's a cross gen release it speaks wonders that this is what they got with only a year of development on these platforms who's specs became final late August 2013... Give it a rest! The delay benefited the game! MGS5 is open world and it's 1080p at 60fps on PS4 with realtime dynamic weather,global Illumination dynamic lighting, smoother particle effects and time.
The PS4 is capable, time with the machine and proper optimizations will bring out the best...
None the less, it's good Ubisoft came out and said it and I'm glad the devs aren't buying into platform parity, they've taken the tools and have made each machine sing to there most stable performance!
1080 4 my PS4 nice. https://i.chzbgr.com/maxW50...
