You guys are wasting your time arguing about this, when in the end, what matters --


Is where the consoles end up down the road. Graphics comparisons with launch games are meaningless. They always get way better.
This topic is locked from further discussion.
why are u using halo 4 in a graphics thread? the best graphics on x360 was probably gears 3 or alan wake
Its cool to watch the graphics evolution throughout a gen though. Also, for me, I prefer less bells and whistles for higher res and framerate. Image quality is pretty important to me. If this gen is 720p (which is fine for me) I would want it to have lots of AA. Clean picture is necessary imo.
@PinkieWinkie: Ugh. Of course no one could own a ps4 and be reasonable enough to think graphics will get better on both consoles.
@PinkieWinkie: To try and balance out the console bashing. It seems like positive threads are the only thing that can bring people who support all systems out to talk, as opposed to the repetitive "Dead Rising runs in 8 FPS... Knack is mindless garbage" banter.
@PinkieWinkie: I do, it just seems like nobody posts in anything else, so what's a guy to do?
Besides, if everybody has a right to bash on each other for personal tastes, I can surely bash on everyone for engaging in silly arguments. Debating over the quality of the ps4 and the Xbox One right now is about as accurate and meaningful as observing two year olds building blocks and trying to determine which one will end up more gifted and successful as adults.
To be fair Graphics don't matter a whole lot even at the end. Look at last Gen and the Wii, it came up from behind and raped everybody and IMO it didn't even have good games let alone Graphics. I could count the number of good games the Wii had on my fingers and half of those have a fat red plumber in them named Mario.

Witcher 2 is up there.

Alan Wake is sub-HD on Xbox 360 it looks awful.

If your TV is 1080p and you playing 720p , even with high levels of AA , youll get a kinda blurry image anyways. Now scaling ..duh!
Not gonna happen to the same extent this time. Devs are already very familiar with the architecture and limitations of the hardware in these system, because it's just regular old PC hardware using regular old PC architecture. In previous generations, Sony and Microsoft had custom hardware that needed to be deciphered. Simply not the case this time. Certain graphical techniques will probably be developed such as better forms of AA that aren't too resource-intensive or more efficient forms of ambient occlussion; we'll also see more multi-core efficient engines get developed as time goes on, but there isn't gonna be a drastic difference between early gen games and last gen games. Hell, we're already hearing devs like CDProjeckt RED saying that they're pushing the consoles to their breaking points.
It might not be a big deal for some, but it is concerning that there is such a big difference between the consoles

Well yeah but if you can't do 1080p native what is your suggestion lol? If they can clean up the 720p image I'm fine with it. I have a 1080p TV so that's preferable but yah know, can't win em all.
Well the Graphics of a console at launch DOES have a huge impact on alot of gamers, and while it is true that Graphics evolve on each system Down the line, the graphical comparisons should be looked at from the day the consoles are out, and then continued on till they are discontinued (or new consoles arrive from the same manufactors).
Ofcourse we all know Graphics at launch are not final, perfect dark Zero looked freakin horrible, but even that was compared back then, sooeh. Biosness as usual.
The whole graphics doesn't matter is complete bs you bought a next gen console for the new games and updated graphics saying I'm in in for the gameplay is utter crap you buy a new console somewhat for the new graphics
@The_Last_Ride: I mean its not the difference between, say, the Sega Saturn and the n64. If the Xbox One can produce games that look like Ryse that are actually fun to play, and the multiplatforms run consistently, I think the only people who are going to care about the ps4 being stronger are ps4 owners. I marveled at how gorgeous Killzone is, but it didn't keep me from having fun with Dead Rising 3 -- and no it doesn't run at 10 FPS like people think. I've hardly noticed frame rate drops at all.
Ofcourse console fans will say gfx don't matter when their machines absolutely fail at it even the first year of a new gen.
That was true in past gens because the architectures were different and you couldn't precisely tell exactly how things would turn down in the end. This gen both consoles are basically the same and the XBONE is clearly weaker, sure it will get better graphics as time goes on but PS4 will as well and it will maintain that lead.
SO you buy a system on launch to wait 7 years to see what could be achieved on it? Boring as fk if you ask me.
@silversix_: Not necessarily. Of course those shiny, new graphics of a brand new console are something to gawk at when you first get your system, but there's so many people spelling out the future of both consoles before we've even seen how developers are going to take advantage of the hardware in the long term. These consoles aren't even half a year old, and people seem to be so self-informed about performance that they believe they can predict what they're capable of.
Both consoles will boast impressive visuals in the long term -- ps4's will be better, but that doesn't mean Xbox One's won't also be impressive.
It was 53fps if you want to be precise. Still a shitload better than Xflop along with along with looking better and not dropping to 900p during cutscenes.
However much graphics improve PS4's will always be better. Gonna be a painful 5 years for lems on the internet.
I'm still waiting for a game where AI is not predictable or the choices you make actually matter. I'd take that over 1080p running at 60FPS with the same gameplay we've had for the last 2 decades.
Your argument has some weight TC, but there are factors you are overlooking.
Graphic wont have a huge jump like it did for gen 7th start compared to its end.
Bigger worlds and sophisticated Mechanics will improved tho, that is a guarantee.
@Nengo_Flow: That's entirely possible, but at the same time, none of us know for sure. Sure, a better comparison would probably be Gears 1 and Uncharted vs. the last year of Xbox 360 and ps3, since the transfer into HD development was challenging. Regardless, the graphics will get better on both consoles, without a doubt. It's just something that happens.
But from what I've seen on both the ps4 and Xbox One in terms of upcoming exclusive titles, they look damn good across the board, and I think it's simply far too early to start writing off anybody in this console cycle based on what's out now, because as history has shown, launch lineups often don't end up relevant even a year into the generation.
The best of both consoles is yet to come, and both will be impressive.
As an owner of both the XBO and the PS4, all i can say is both the current gen machines suck right now.. it was a mistake being an early adopter, the titles have been poor and the the graphics are far from impressive.. PC is outputting higher than both these consoles and i have a fairly mid-high end pc.
No exclusive has yet to be a console seller and nothing in the near future looks to be that way either.. who ever is supporting their console are scraping barrels to justify their purchase.. Honestly they are both a regrettable PoS.

HOLY SHIT 53 NOT 30 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! **** ME THAT IS A "SHITLOAD" BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!! ONLY 900P!!!!!!! MY GOD THAT IS AWFUL, DIDN'T WE HAVE 720P LAST GEN, MAN LAST GEN MUST HAVE TRULY SUCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BALLZ!!!! 900P IZ TEH WEAK SAUZZ!!!! MUST BE "INFERIOR" BECAUSE OF SCREEN RESOLUTION!!!!!!! FORGET THE GRAPHICS BEING FUCKING IDENTICAL, LETS ARGUE SCREEEEEEN RESOLUTIONZ!!!!
LETS ARGUE 20 FRAMES THESE DAYS INSTEAD OF GRAPHICS OR GAMEPLAY SINCE THE GRAPHICS ARE IDENTICAL!!!!!!!!!! PAINFUL YEARZ AHEAD FOR THE LEMZ IN TEH SYSTEM WARZ ON THE GAMESPOT SITE!!!!!!!!
BECAUSE PS4 WILL SELLZ 100,000,000 CONSOLEZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND EVIL M$$$$ WILL SELL THE XBOX BECAUSE OF TEH SHAREHOLDERZZZZ!!!
TOMB RAIDER on XBOX ONE looks fantastic on my Panasonic Plasma, these "comparisons" mean JACK SHIT. The XBOX ONE is a good console, but you all HATE MICROSOFT so you simply hate the console. TYPICAL SW LOGIC that goes back to when the original XBOX was released in 2001 here when this wasn't System Wars but the ZDNet forums. I was here then (my old account), most of you WERE NOT. "XFLOP" "PCBOX", "SHITBOX" all those were used way back in 2001 along with my favorite quote that was overdone to death "XBOX IS DOOMED" which I also read when the 360 was launched HERE AT SW at the start of last gen. XBOX hate has been going on since XBOX joined the console race 13 years ago.
you kiddies today are out of touch with REALITY comparing screen resolution and framerates which apparently make games great now as opposed to gameplay and graphics, in the old days even Ramza (THE COW QUEEN WHO HELPED CREATE THE ANIMAL NAMES HERE) wouldn't argue stupid lame ass FRAMERATE and SCREEN RESOLUTION BULLSHIT LIKE YOU KIDDIES DO TODAY. The arguments here are POINTLESS.
SYSTEM WARS is such SHIT these days, I can't fucking believe Dire Weasel is still fucking here. and STILL HATING ON XBOX on daily basis like he did 12 years ago. MAN, things don't change around here. Dire bro, seriously 12 years man, MOVE the **** on from this cesspool, you have new people here to replace you like I_Can_Haz and Strong Black Vine who make it pretty clear how much they hate XBOX every day here.
oh well, that was all I had to say, carry on arguing about the dumbest shit possible about video games and no I won't be responding to what you morons have to say.
chow bitches.

Jesus Christ.
Some people really need to quit coming on system wars. They're offended by the very concept.

Good lord.... I'm in full agreement of seeing the value of every console instead of ripping it to shreds, but.... Good lord dude... Chill the **** out, there's no need for this kind of behavior from anyone.
why are u using halo 4 in a graphics thread?
Cause Halo 4 is most likely the best looking Xbox 360 game?

But both of those consoles did not do good compared to their competitor
