@invizo maybe they just don't have the budget to buy a super expensive PC to run it in ultra hd.

@invizo The HD texture pack is for Ultra 4k, the game looks more than fine without it. Certainly a lot better than what they are portraying in this video.

@turianshepard @invizo After watching the IGN version of this video, I have lost all faith for this site's credibility, the PC version looks noticeably better than its counterparts and the editor in that video knows how to setup correct gamma.

The PC version looked better, but the captures from XO and PS4 looked much worse over at IGN.

@smackk10 @Astroliner

I thought this game came in at 900p on Xbox one, maybe I was misinformed...

@lifegee13 It's 900p 30 fps = X1

1080p unlocked fps = PS4

You won't be able to tell the difference with this $hit GS video but in real life you will. Either way buy it on whatever you prefer to play on.

I borrowed by my buddy's copy for PS4 and used my XO copy. They're practically identical on both consoles. I couldn't tell a difference and he couldn't either.

Is that what I said? Again, more assumptions on your part. Actually, we alternatively looked at both games on each console one after the other (that way they were on the exact same TV, etc.). Not simultaneously, but the comparison was made regardless.


Also, have a hard time believing whatever you want--haha. We at least went to extra effort to actually attempt to compare...As compared to fanboys like you who just assume...

@joke_man @turianshepard @lifegee13 I'm a fanboy now? Your little attacks will get you nowhere, friend. I didn't make any assumptions either, I actually have read other sites that did actual screenshot comparisons, not some little circle jerk in your buddies basement. Sorry, bro, but I don't agree with you and several other people don't seem to either.

I do I did the same thing I own a ps4 and an x1 and borrowed my friends copy. Look almost the same to me as well. Ps4 version has better shading but that's about it.

We didn't notice any shading differences, but I might see if I can get his copy again and take some pictures, etc., for further comparison. It's always possible we're blind, haha ;)


I was actually expecting to see the PS4 clearly look better, and I was surprised that it wasn't (at least from what I could tell and in my opinion).

"I didn't make any assumptions either,"


Actually, here are two you made:


1) "So you set up your systems and did a side by side comparison? I have a hard time believing that."


Also, I already clarified what I did--yet, interestingly, you made no attempt to correct your assumption or say you were wrong, etc.


2) You suggested you could discover some kind of actual difference in comparing them in "real life," without actually making any such comparison yourself. (Also, I'm fairly certain you edited this portion of your comment a couple times.)


Lastly, I think it's hilarious listening to you complain about "little attacks" that "will get [me] nowhere." Particularly while also suggesting that I made my actual comparison in "some little circle jerk in your buddies basement." Ya, complain about ad hominem attacks while feverishly lodging them yourself...Ladies and gentlemen: The pillar of hypocrisy.


So, ya, you're either a fanboy or just a d*ck. Either "put up" and take YOUR own advise by checking it out yourself or shut up rather than making assumptions.

1) You said that after the fact.


2) You contradicted yourself after initially stating you need to make the comparison in person to figure out what you later said you confirmed by viewing online pictures.


So, I agree: "F'n ret@rd confirmed." Indeed :)

I already have, but here goes again:


You initially said: "You won't be able to tell the difference with this $hit GS video but in real life you will. "


You then said you relied on pics from another site. So, 1) this is a contradiction, and 2) you didn't provide the basis for your initial assumption (the pics you saw) until later.

@joke_man @turianshepard Also if you had a brain (you don't) you'd see I was parroting what the article said. Funny how you didn't even read the link. So lets recap, you did a very inaccurate comparison, I doubt your comparison, you get but thurt, I give you a link proving that your comparison is trash, you get but thurt and ignore the link instead opting to attempt to insult me, you look like a fool.

@turianshepard


Let's recap:


You initially stated: "You won't be able to tell the difference with this $hit GS video but in real life you will."


So, I responded: well, actually, a buddy and I checked in real life out of curiosity and didn't find any differences in our comparison.


You went on to, without any reasonable basis, discredit what I said based on some baseless assumption.


I responded by correcting you as to what we actually did and said your baseless assertion is likely part of your bias. If not, then why not apologize and admit you were wrong in grossly generalizing and doubting what I said for no reason????????????


Then, rather than admit you own up to your gross mischaracterization of my comparison, you then said you based your "opinion" on how the game would differ on consoles on pics from another site.


My sole point since then has been: SO WHAT!? You already said that you can spot the differences in real life. So, saying you relied on pics and saying that's better evidence of the point is a complete and total contradiction of you telling people to obtain first-hand knowledge--WHICH I JUST SO HAPPEN TO HAVE, hence my harmless comment.


So, try and save face, you've already lost the argument. Be a manchild and d*ck, get your panties in a bunch, etc. Like I said, I don't care if you believe me. I did exactly what you said to notice all these drastics differences, and: GUESS WHAT?! THEY DON'T EXIST! So, take your own advice and check it out in "REAL LIFE." Unless you're just some broke a$$ punk, that is, with one console and a fanboy's chip on his shoulder.


Either way, I'm not suffering your idiocy further. Feel free to have the last word, and a great weekend :)

Good god, just shut up.


"(Also, I'm fairly certain you edited this portion of your comment a couple times.)"

That is what an assumption looks like, kid.


"Ya, complain about ad hominem attacks while feverishly lodging them yourself."


Where did I complain about ad hominem attacks, are you ret@rded or do you just lack reading comprehension?


"So, ya, you're either a fanboy or just a d*ck."


I'm gonna go ahaed a say you're the latter, funboy.

1) I love how your comments are just dripping with condescension. It makes for fine reading...


2) So, you're saying you didn't edit it? Because your initial comment didn't even include the sentence I quoted. That's a fact. Saying "I'm fairly certain" was just my nice little way of giving you the benefit of the doubt and out to admit it. In fact, I started replying and then I noticed the comment got bigger as I was responding.


3) Despite all of your condescension, you also conveniently ignore everything I said calling you out on your assumptions. Again, more hypocrisy.


"Where did I complain about ad hominem attacks, are you ret@rded or do you just lack reading comprehension?"


I quoted you doing it and here it is again with you saying, "little attacks" that "will get [me] nowhere." That's you complaining about my calling you a fanboy and saying ad hominem attacks (i.e. name calling) will get me nowhere--followed by you doing exactly that!!! LMFAO Kind of funny, you know. You saying I lack reading comprehension all the while you display a severe lackthereof with the very comment attacking me on my reading comprehension.

You know you can tell when someone edits a post, right? God you're dumb.


"3) Despite all of your condescension, you also conveniently ignore everything I said calling you out on your assumptions. Again, more hypocrisy."

I just presented a link to my "assumptions"... So no hypocrisy here, I don't even think you know what that word means.

@turianshepard @joke_man


Let's kick off by saying, again, nice job conveniently ignoring all of my initial points. It takes extreme mental gymnastics, but you have pulled them off wonderfully :)


"Strawman..."


You clearly don't know what a straw-man argument is, do you. I made a comment about how your comments appear. At worst that's a red herring or potential ad hominem.


"You know you can tell when someone edits a post, right? God you're dumb."


I know what I saw and commented on and said I'm fairly certain of what I saw. Again, no assumptions, and still ignores the assumptions you actually made which you continue to dismiss out of convenience for your bias.


"I just presented a link to my "assumptions"... So no hypocrisy here, I don't even think you know what that word means."


I already addressed this. And, still, assumptions regardless of it. You made assumptions based on pics of what you saw on the Internet. I made mine based on actual observations--which is, ironically, what you said the best place to make your assumptions was. LMFAO So, go for it :)


"HAHA, reaching so far you'll pull a muscle. "


Says the guy with strains on strains from trying to hold his head above water...haha

@joke_man @turianshepard Lets kick it off by saying you have litterally done every single thing you're complaining about me doing... Your posts are all presumptuous and hypocritical, not to mention childish and angry. You clearly have gotten but thurt over me, which is fine, but quit acting like you're smart when with every new post you reveal yourself as a fool.

It looks almost identical on XO and PS4. If you're more a graphics nerd get it on PC. It's noticeably better, but that's not a surprise.


If you have an XO, get this game. If you only have PS4, get it there. If you have both, choose whichever you prefer the controller, etc. Either way, get the game--it's very good!

Memory I have more than enough, I have 16 GB, i7 intel core yada xD But my GPU it says that I have the AMD Radeon R9 270, I had NVidia for so long before, that it's a little getting used to xD And it even seemns that on the Alienware site here, they don't even list that one anymore, but the 4 GB R9 290 instead... GPU knowledge is one of my biggest weaknesses.

Both the Xbox one and ps4 look exactly the same.

PC looks washed out but I think it's the settings gamespot used for the pc version.

Glad to see both console versions look the same though.

Happy gaming everyone

Maybe the compression changed how it looked on PC? Definitely looks better playing the game, though.


Like you said, PS4 and XO are nearly identical.

@lonesamurai1 @oflow its stupid comparison to begin with since everyone already knows pcs are more powerful. they shouldnt even be in the comparison. Its like talking about best mid range sports coupes and having a Ferrari up against an M3 and an AMG E350.
