Not downplaying it at all. Here is a chart for your reference. .

Sure the size of the screen is everything. However I doubt most people will be using a 65 inch tv.

how do you explain destiny then? parity much

rubbish you mong

A decent PC will bend over any of the current generations and spank them hard.

It’s just a shame that PC graphics are being ruined on purpose.
I’m still angry about the entire Watch_Doge debacle when someone found “e3_graphics=0”, and set it to “e3_graphics=1”.
That’s just not cool.

Much more powerful is a bit of stretch. Everyone likes to throw around theoretical numbers but its not simply the case. Theoretical peak for ps4 172gb/s realistically anywhere between 130 at minimum 160 at maximum that’s fact, anybody who says they can get full usage of that bandwidth is full of it, still impressive to get those numbers but never going to be max theoretical speed. Its no different with the xbox who willingly supplied a realistic view of 204gb/s theoretical max but real world speeds of around 150 for the esram and 60 for the ddr3. The cpu is more powerful due to the upclock as well as the added in move engines it reduces the number of cycles wasted shunting data to and from the cpu and gpu a similar implementation is used for cell processor’s, next the cpu does next to no extra audio work on xbox one due to the audio block with 512 streams going at once compared to the ps4 of 200 streams which means more cpu work for ps4 and lost cycles on the cpu effectively cutting away your theoretical peak performance. Now the xbox has the superior cpu through offloading effectively, which now brings things a little closer yet again and then it’s up to Microsoft to mature the api and sdk assist developers with any problems and your 50% power gap is reduced to a pointless little number. The power difference between the 360 and ps3 was not a little the cell processor itself had 230 gigaflops compared to 72 for the 360 that’s alot of cpu bang. The 360 had a third the amount of cpu power and in the end that showed.

Most people will not see the difference unless you put two screen shots side by side.

Heck I bet even if Digital Foundry didn’t tell you guys Killzone wasn’t 1080p or if No one anounced if Watchdogs wasn’t 1080p on Ps4 you still wouldn’t notice the difference today.

People are just telling you what you want to believe.

In the case of the XBone it’s the lack of hardware resources. It’s just hampered by the slow 8GB DDR3 memory and a limited 32mb ESRAM.
The best analogy is this: the developers have to figure out how to push that square peg through a round hole. Corners have to be cut in order to do that.

It’s not a simple case of trying to unlock hidden performance when in reality there is none. This is fact.
They can probably get XBone games running at 1080p and maybe 60fps but to achieve this they will dial down the graphic fidelity. No way around it.
