Microsoft Studio Manager Addresses Xbox One Power Concerns

But is it fun to play? (Zing!)

Studio manager for Microsoft Mike Ybarra recently took to Twitter to quickly but quaintly dismiss claims of the Xbox One not being able to handle games at 1080p resolution and 60 frames per second.

In response to a user’s tweet, Ybarra said, “Forza is 1080p/60. Less troll, more gaming. “@gohardgohome07: @XboxQwik cool when will the xbone be able to hit 1080p.”

All of this comes in the wake of Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition, which recently released for both next gen consoles, being capped at 30 FPS on the Xbox One. Though both games feature the same assets and visual style, the Xbox One ended up getting the shorter end of the stick – even though the PS4 is by no means locked at 60 FPS.

What are your thoughts on this issue? Do more frames equal a better experience or is it all about the visuals? Let us know what you think in the comments.
