@Tegorian: I plan to buy the XoX because it will be better. I always buy what's best and up until now it's been the PS4 Pro. On the flip side, choosing to stick with a specific brand and having to defend it with endless excuses has been the story of Xbox gamers the last few years and 80% of the reason there's a console war.
I just finished this over the weekend. What an amazing game. It's in the top 5 from the last several years for sure and has been the only console game to keep me off the PC in a long time, didn't even miss it. It's a greatest hits of so many excellent games, you can't go wrong. The 4K visuals in HDR on a 4K OLED was the pinnacle of console gaming for me. I can't wait to see what Last of Us 2 and Days Gone accomplish.
@Silverline62: Here's a tip. If you can buy a modern graphics card like a GTX 1070 and install it in your PC then you likely don't need the XoX. If your PC is proprietary or extremely old then consider the XoX. The graphics will be comparable to a mid to high end PC on a 55" 4K TV. If you want award winning exclusives that only Sony provides then get the Pro. For casual gamers looking for great graphics and not so interested in the exclusives then the XoX is the best deal.
@bdrtfm: Sounds like you have issues. IGN has a show where they kiss Microsoft's ass, go there if that's what you need to survive. BTW, Your analogy of backyard gaming is what people have had to do the last few years to make Xbox One games look "good".
As Forza 6 was Xbox fanboys wet dream and fuel for argument over the existence of 1080p/60 on the One when all other options were 720p/30 or 900p/30 so shall Forza 7 be the 4K behemoth as other games still struggle.
It's not a big deal really. Anything above a certain resolution will look amazing on most 4K TV's. I only wish the hard target wasn't dead on 2160p but instead closer to 1800p with checkerboard to allow more visual enhancements. Forza excluded because that game is made by the gods... or so it has been whispered. Diminishing returns at 55"/65" 4K make the hunt for true native 4K a wasted effort. You really need something in the 70" or larger screen size for it to matter enough to debate. With proper anti aliasing and HDR, games up to 65" on a 4k TV will be hard to compare.
It would be a shame to not include any of the original content in the followup considering II is likely to be the better game now that it's a "complete" game. I hope to see all the previous maps too. I'm super annoyed I waited around too long for a proper Pro patch to play the game on my 4K TV and it never happened.
