Precisely, play all games but have fun in comments sections like i do.

When they say max, it’s not maxed out, in 20 years time, the PS4 will be able to do games that just can’t be done today and even then it wouldn’t be maxed out, simply put we don’t have the programming tools at this time to max hardware out, games would have to be done in machine code or converted to it and no programmer is going to do that, that would get more performance, probably a lot more.

The PC is a lot closer to consoles now than it’s ever been and with Vulcan and DirectX 12, we’re getting very close to where the same hardware on the PC as say the PS4 can do about the same work, something just 5 years ago was unthinkable.

I guess it will be far away from 9.8/10…
Btw there aren’t pay2win microtransactions, it’s cosmetic stuff only – for now, maybe further patches/dlcs change that. I’ll gonna buy a used copy on day1 after launch – shouldn’t be hard to find one. Ubisoft won’t see my money.

Expect annual maxing-out-releases from Ubisoft.

“the hardware of PC’s and consoles are not around long enough to get the best out of them”

It’s not that easy to compare.
PC Users have different specs and dev’s need to make it run on all systems above a minimum requirement. That’s pretty hard work.
On Consoles all users share the same specs which makes it MUCH easier to max out their hardware.

But all in all Tom Clancy’s The Downgrade maxes nothing out, wether X1 nor PS4 and for obvious reasons it can’t max out PCs.

According to this:

hmmm maybe not quite mid-tier (a 7790 is lucky to be even minimum game specs these days)

A CPU is very relevant if it’s only 1.6-1.75 ghz. Maybe not so much if it’s 3ghz+

IMHO i reckon Uncharted 4 will be the one that will show up PS4s extra grunt (I know it’s not a like for like comparison but it’s something that’s unrestrained by console parity and is built from the ground up etc…)

I guess they look pretty similar on PS4/X1, maybe only resolution make a difference. We’ll see in a week when the beta arrived.

The PS4 isn’t that much better than a X1. Indeed PS4 has a better GPU (1.8tFlops) than the X1 (1.3tFlops) but X1 has a better CPU (1 more core for gaming, 1.75Ghz instead of 1.6Ghz) and cloud computing support (check out Crackdown 3 with it’s amazing global physics).
X1 has exclusives with amazing graphics as well (forza6 at 1080p60, rise of the tomb raider, the upcoming quantum break, etc).
All in all it’s mostly just the resultion which makes a difference. Around 30% of multi-platform games have a higher resolution on PS4, the rest is identical. Sometimes X1 patches the resolution to 1080p (e.g. destiny, diablo3). Anyway, it’s pretty hard to actually see the difference between 900p & 1080p.

At the end both are pretty similar, PS4 just slightly better. I enjoy both. But I really hate the new X1 dashboard…

I think he is dead spot on. It’s the PC fanboys who are desperate to experience superior gaming but they only get slightly better looking/running games.
That’s why the real master race is the Hybrid gamer. We play absolutely everything we want, regardless of platform, because we own them all.

Ubisoft has not claimed that they will have the same texture/shades and visual elements. They only stated different resolutions. Likely, the PS4 also has more visual elements because it’s hardware (GPU/GDDR5) can handle it. If your comment was so true then that what they would have stated as well. Sony, AMD and NVIDIA are not going to let parity happen just because the Xbox One can’t handle the heat.
