He's sticking to this, still. 3 weeks.
So wait, remind me who this guy is? Where is he from? If he is right, meltdowns are sure to follow.
LOLHe is right, MS is waiting for it to be too late for Sony to change specs. Once that time passes (it keeps getting pushed back because of marketing and Sonyponies); they're going to tell developers to flip the switch and BOOM 4k for all games thanks to the hidden dGPU (That's 50CUs, that's more than AMD's new R9 290x!) and low latency. Epic kill; it's the art of war m8; something something enemies close.
It's that bad in MP on 360?
Why not all? But probably not.
The reason that the framerate in the IGN video is worse than the PS4 MP videos so far is apparently due to IGN's player that only is 30fps. Should mean tomorrow during the XBL livestream it should be much better.
1080p is not a realistic expectation, especially with the CoD 720p confirmation now. 1080p would also make it the much better version than PS4...isnt there some big announcement during the event? knowing how these companies hype uo small things its probably something to do with dlc but hoping for 1080p
Gamestop got regular editions now.Nope not delayed here in the States, just dumbass me not reserving one
Seriously? Does anyone even believe any of that nonsense now? Ketto beats a dead horse to the tune of "BA-DUM-CHING!"He is right, MS is waiting for it to be too late for Sony to change specs.

I really don't understand all this secrecy around The One. What else could there be about the console that we don't know yet? How long can MSoft hide something?He's sticking to this, still. 3 weeks.
And this from this morning:
Insider: The reasons for these developers not going full 1080p is due to resources. And ms changed too many thing in the last 20 weeks .. and api's that came in late.
The story with Dice is they are still developing the day one patch. There is a lot more then ao. There is aa. Texture aa and more .. I told you the review copy that leaked was around 10 weeks old. It was not even optimised.
the hanna 2 upscaler is not even doing any heavy lifting. There is discussions going on. That relate to 4k and 30fps gaming and there saying 720p bf4 was looking better then the 1080p native upscale. And it had to to with api and esram development cycle. Will have to wait for more 4k reviews to prove this.
I know for fact there is a lot of heavy words being said behind closed door in regards to sony leaking information to a certain online person. Come this month every thing will be cleared up. The p r efforts of ms are really ready to show their console's worth in gaming.
No patch for cod. IW used old engine which was not designed to take advantage of the new architecture of x1. There is little to no offloading and piss poor utilization of esram. TR and over 11.2 features aren't designed for last Gen engines. frostbite 3 was built with new architecture driving the project.
Engines that are going to take advantage if x1 architecture so far are: frostbite 3, snowdrop, unreal 4, cryengine as well as project red new engine.
There is also some custom inhouse engine by MS that can piggy back so to speak with others. Forza and DR3 are examples. My contact told me they are considering a descent or red faction reboot for next Gen.

IS JUST NOT A HARDWARE SCALER CHIP ITS VIDEO DISPLAY CHIP! THE GPU DOES THE UPSCALING BY USING A SPECIAL CODE AND ALGORITHM THAT DOES THE UPSCALING AND IT SENDS IT TO THE DISPLAY CHIP! THE "SECERT" TO HANNA IS FIRMWARE AND SPECIAL CODE!
I am sure it is more crazy BS posted above, but I really think the reason COD is 720p and 60FPS is because IW having trouble with hardware.
Yeah, I'm sure most of it is...I mainly post it for fun. But in the IW case, I think that is what the guy is saying, no? For whatever reason, whether it be late access to tools, or just laziness with putting the effort in to learn the new hardware, it still seems to come down to lack of ease in using the new hardware (at this point in time).
The general consensus I gather from all of it is that MS messed up with either changing the hardware late, or getting tools to devs late (or maybe both...the first causing the second, if some 'sources' are to be believed).
And of course their PR isn't doing a great job concerning all of this....which is too bad considering they really stepped up after the E3 debacle.
I'll be shocked if there's actually a Day 1 patch to bring X1 up to native 1080p. I think that's just desperation by some upset X1 fanboys.
Oh yeah I know the patch is real, but I'm not a believer in the res rumors. But we'll see!The day one patch for BF is real. DICE confirmed it. Whether it does anything to the resolution is a different story.
Oh yeah I know the patch is real, but I'm not a believer in the res rumors. But we'll see!

@repi @digitalfoundry Are there other fixes that aren't in the review copy?
Johan Andersson @repi
@AlexConnellan @digitalfoundry yes there are some, but not something we will go into details about at this time.

@repi It's True? http://www.gamekyo.com/groupnews_article28973.html …
@SimoneAzzarello same AO on Xbox One and PS4 is true, that is the only thing.
