Mortal Kombat X: PS4 vs XBO vs PC

Holy hell @ that comment section. Smh, The way they talk, you'd think there is some massive difference. If you watch the vids, you have to stare, squint, and zoom in to notice them. lame. It is funny how DF referrs to the resolution difference as massive at one point, lol.

They have to exaggerate the differences or else they get mobbed by fanboys. Not even joking, even though PS4 has won damn near every face-off, fan boys have cried foul because the language describing the differences doesn't have enough emphasis. They get racked over the coals if there is even a almost positive Xbox POV, if they point out issues in the PS4 version etc etc.. that AF issue drew a lot of flack for them.

It's actually pretty hilarious if you think about it. One of the writers actually tried to post a photo of his game collection (mostly PS4 games versus a few Xbox One titles), to prove he isn't bias towards Xbox... I don't think it worked.
 
We'll just have to agree to disagree on this :wink:

I just think animations are chit and look robotic. Sure they improved it but it still exist. Look at Jax's Gotcha Grab or Scorpions Takedown. Those are only a few exampeles but you get what saying right? The animations are cringe worthy at times. I havent seen that in any fighting game except MK. In my opinion still the worst animating fighting game to date. It seriously needs an overhaul not improvements.

I love MK but people are bere praising what I hate most about the series. I never seen anyone defend the chity animation untill now. Yup agree to disagree.

Read above.

1) Pick Kitana
2) Start a game
3) Press '↓ + Low-Kick' repeatedly.
4) Try not to laugh.

:laugh:

That stiff, gravity defying, awkward, goofy animation.

I tried really hard to notice the "alleged" differences but I gave up. lol. Once I stopped trying, both versions looked eerily similar. It was at that point I truly knew I was doing something wrong. Imagine my surprise...

I gotta know; what the hell are we looking for here? They look the same!
 
I can easily see the difference between the Xbox One version and the PS4 version screens. Guess I have super vision or something. That being said though they both look fine and you clearly can't go wrong with any of them.

Ok after watching the 2 versions in motion I can't see the difference when in motion.

I think that is sorta the crux of the argument. There is a difference, but it takes some close scrutiny to notice it. I guarantee if you showed footage without labels people couldn't really tell. Certainly not if you were paying attention to playing the game.

Obviously not all games will be as close, but with this game. ..
 
I owned both versions back then.
The 360 version was slightly better looking with the PS3 version being the better overall version imo due to Kratos,controller,better sound and 3D support.
 
360 version looked better then, just like PS4 version looks better now. Just how the cookie crumbles.
 
it's very evident in that gif. The ps4 version is more "detailed" or "clear". Whatever term you want to use.
 
But the differences are much bigger these days


Well, the differences today usually are resolution related. Back then, I remember someone at TXB saying CoD 360 "curb stomped" the PS3 version....when the resolution difference was so incredibly small. Now, you get much more resolution difference...and the claim is....there's not much difference now.

I agree, the difference really isn't that large, but neither was it last gen....just funny to see the shoe on the other foot.
 
I've seen a few people saying they don't like the art style of MK and I couldn't disagree more, actually the art style is one of the things I've always liked most about MK. I guess everyone has different taste, I really hate the way the newer street fighter games look but I'm sure many others love it.

I've always liked the MK art style too. At least the 2d games. Some of the early 3d games were rough. But now that technology is more advanced, they can get pretty close to their art concepts in game.

Yeah I try to pretend the 3D games never existed lol, they were the series low point and I'm extremely glad they went back to 2D.

If Street Fighter 4 weren't a great game, I don't think it would get a pass for it's fugly art style.. which looks terrible. SF 5 seems to rectify that though, or at least put it on a positive path.

People are having a hard time accepting that the PS4 is the 360 of this gen. Even Flynn said it himself. He said the PS4 is like a polished 360. He was trying to downplay it but he gave it the best compliment he could.

Another game with nearly identical image fidelity. No meaningful difference on any level (visually).

The *MUCH* more meaningful differences come into play around controller preference, services superiority, etc... and my Xbox One comfortably beats PS4 on those levels.

Xbox One controller is better for fighting games?


LOL
 
I was just wondering where Flynn had run off to. Good to know one of his first posts back picks right back up where he left off.

Does your XB1's dropped frames also factor into that superiority ?.

You need to own at least one of these consoles in order to truly partake in such arguments, Kb. C'mon man. I only say that because there is a world of difference when you actually experience these beasts for yourself instead of yelling from the side lines.

It's like watching a football game as an on looker, and calling the QB a p**** when his head gets shoved up his ass thinking he's pretending to be hurt.

KB: "Get up you pansy ass!! You arent hurt! That s*** happens to me four times a week and I'm doing okay........LET'S GO!!"
:yyell:
 
Well I own the game on both Xbox 1 and PS4 and can say it looks better, has a better controller for the game, and has better online quality on the PS4.
