I'm not disagreeing with you man...just that some people might not see it...or they don't care.
You can't change that.
Lets just leave it at that.


Ahh okay. I can totally understand people not caring. Hell I don't even care lol. The only reason I brought it up is because people kept trying to use Forza as some holy grail 60 fps game.
 
Look.....some people say it was downgraded...some people say it isn't.....or they don 't care because it still looks good.
Everybody should learn to 'deal with differing opinions'

Seriously.

It's the perfect example of beating a dead horse. Is this gonna happen with every non PS4 game now in this thread? It's very tiring.

Nothing better than comparing two horribly compressed YouTube screencaps of varying quality to determine whether or not there was a graphical downgrade in a game.
If it makes you feel better, cling to your delusions. Now run along and enjoy Infamous in 30p.

Hissatsu.....I must train you in the art of 'Accepting Opinions even if they seem Wrong'....or what I like to refer to as my 'AOW' classes.
They are quite useful....Valliance was a recent graduate.
:wink:

Come on man....this doesn't help the situation.
Lets stop with the cheap jabs and concentrate on all things Xbox.

Well, it's always a "cheap jab" when it's about a PS4 game, for some people. Yet for those very same people Xbox games are always open season, and every flaw pounced upon and gloated over.

Well, what other console exclusives are there even hitting 1080p locked 60fps for a comparison? Even in the future what is there? Nothing I know of confirmed to be locked 60fps/1080p
 
Don't wanna go there
I don't blame you, and I have no quarrel with you. I think I'm indulging in what MenaceUK referred to as having a discussion. Something has been presented as fact, something that apparently slipped all the reviewers that contributed to an agragate score of 80 in the much vaunted/maligned MetaCritic. All I'm asking is to see some kind of official proof. Without that, it's nothing more than hearsay, conjecture and opinion.

Why? No one's talking about anything else. What official authority has determined it graphically downgraded? It wasn't Digital Foundry, I read the article.

They went from the crowd being 3D to it being 2D, to be honest, the game looks great in places, but in others it looks really rough.
 
When you unplug the Xbox One, it works as normal...plugging it back in doesn't change the experience much at all. It adds a small layer of convenience, i.e., being away from your controller and shouting a command for it to do something. Is that really changing the experience of the Xbox? No, it's adding a layer of convenience that's not a necessity.
Yeah my kinect is in the Xbox One box no need for it.
 
So I think everything us good to go on my console finally. Turned on Killer Instinct, and BAM new DLC characters is there. Didn't even know it was released today.
 
Its been all over the net... A simple google search will show this.
Oh, I've researched this quite thoroughly, and all I found is......fud, repeated over and over again, and is even being openly disputed in Neogaf forums, of all places. Well, since no one is willing to step forward and back up their "fact" with definitive "proof" I'll let sleeping dogs lie.:meh:

I can accept opinions but someone saying something wasn't downgraded when it clearly was is not an opinion it is being delusional. -_-
 
Forza was downgraded and it is not a matter of opinion. You have got to be kidding me.

Compared to what? Relative to what? There's no comparable game on this or any other system, so what are you comparing it to?

This is an honest, serious question. I said before, the car and track count is obviously down from FM4, but you seem to have some other opinion beyond that. What is it?

It's differences, pointed out way back when the game was first reviewed, between the final build and the build of the demo used at E3. Dismissed as of minor consequence then, It has lately been blown out of proportion as a major "downgrade" first on a single post on Neogaf, a post subsequently deleted by a Neogaf moderator, and then quickly dissiminated through the gaming media with less than professional objectivity, or as a transparent ploy to garner "hits".
 
This bashing on Xbox One games is tired, stale, redundant and grossly over stated. Damn. Does it ever stop? Again, we never see this crap on Sony games. Yet, everyone feels the need to "criticize" games on the XBO. LOL. Who knew they were all so hideous. How one earth did Microsoft ever get it so wrong?!:laugh:

Right, the 3d guy waiving the flag was removed and replaced with a 2d crowd. That really hurts the game as I'm trying to nail a good lap time going through a corner.

I'd love to compare Forza to a comparable game on another system... but are they ever going to come out?

Of course, Forza 5 is the first game in history to every have stuff in alpha/beta shots that didn't make the final build. :confused:

I mean come on... have any of you Forza critics even played the game? It is fantastic. The physics are fantastic. The AI is innovative.

When Xbox games have the graphical prowess and wonderful art direction of Knack, I suppose this will stop.
 
Yea, funny thing is both Knack and DR3 not my type of games. I couldn't care less lol. Just give me more games like Ryse/Phantom Dust/Ki and I'm good to go.

It's an odd comparison, but between the two, I'd take a whack at knack first. It's like an N64 game on steroids. I still have my N64.
