And yet the accusation is that it can't do 1080/60. Even if Forza was "downgraded" the doesn't change the fact that it is 1080/60. Just like Killzone wouldn't look as good if it ran at 60 (SP).

Of course, it's a fools argument because it will always be a compromise. No matter how powerful it is. We don't know how much that E3 build had to think about. It was a work in progress and I know the physics weren't finalized yet. There may have been additions that ate up more cycles. Who knows? But it's foolish to keep bringing it up. Games change a bit while they are being made, you know.

Of course it can do 1080P/60fps what people are interested in, is if it can do it without major cutbacks like forza had (2d trees, 2d spectators, environment shadowing baked, nearly non existent AA, AF, etc).

Killzone is not capped at 30 fps it is unlocked.
 
If you folks want to discuss kill zone, please do it in the PlayStation section.

Agree.

There are respective threads for these discussions, for people that are interested. It seems that some people need a ban warning before they resist making off topic post like resolution comparisons in this thread.

Just to quote your last paragraph in a post from a different thread this morning.

"But if we claim to be a mature site and not like some of the fanboys from other sites (IGN) then I do not see why discussion that can lead to comparison shouldn't be allowed"

A discussion was being made in an mature manner without personal insults flying around and now you're calling for people to be banned?
 
Microsoft has told trusted publishing partners that it will release a new model Xbox One before the end of the year, a senior source has confirmed to VG247.

Although the source was unable to confirm that the system will be disc-less and feature a bluetooth adaptor, the new console will be priced cheaper than the current $499 model.

If the rumor is to be believed it will be in October...screw that, Not gonna wait that long. Soon as i have the rupees i;m going for it.
 
I definitely disagree, watching all the vids online and then playing it I was really surprised how good it looks.
Yup, same here. Forza 5 looks and plays a-f***ing-mazing. 1080p, 60fps. SOLID and locked too. Best looking game on console to date (though I haven't played Ryse), and best looking and playing racer on console ever.

Only on Xbox One baby!

I am saying maybe a warning for banned need to be made. So people get a warning, if they continue to post off topic, this is different from asking for a direct ban. So people who post unknowingly at least have a chance to be clarify to them. What else can you do otherwise. Anyway, maybe unclear also, I mean banned for a while on this thread, if its even possible.

Plainview have multiple times remind people not to post these, yet it came up time after time. What else do you suggest to improve the situation?

Also I did not call for any particular person.

Fair enough but it's getting a bit ridiculous when you have people constantly making silly claims about about X1 and it's difficult to refute the point without some sort of comparison. I apologise as I can see you want to keep the thread from derailing but certain posters just keep coming in time and time again trying to put a downer on the X1, are we supposed to just let this fud continue on these boards without reply?
I getting sick and tired of it tbh, maybe I need to take a break from the forums.
 
Can we have another specific thread for these freaking rumors?

These "news articles" are starting to get really annoying.

I do agree banning people should be last resort, hence I said a warning first. I just feel its unfair to people who wanted to hear news about XBOX one, but have to scroll pages of pages of a few member arguing over other topics.

Its also unfair to mods to have to keep deleting irrevalent posts.

People who care interested in comparisions, solution to world hunger, or Holiday distinations, can discuss them over respective threads.

Never! More rumors, MORE I say, right here, right now...I'm like a junkie that's just relapsed....so here's another big speedball *runs into woods cackling*:

As for crushed blacks on x1 there is definitely an update coming. And it will fix this and a few juddering problems. Not all tvs are effected by this problem. But your fixs is coming very very soon. :)

Insider: New insider... well I did get my hair cut.. :)

Look I spent 16 months in a leaky cboat onces. It is over now :)

there is no white xbox coming to retail just yet.. there is how ever a sexy white titan falls xbox one .. that will match that controller ...

Also halo3 thats news to me.. h2 anniversary 100% this year.
halo 4 was in test phase but that was a streaming test. It would be far more simple to do halo 4 over halo 3 different engine. Halo 4 was one of the games designed for test with forward compatibility. Not saying halo 3 is not coming in some form but just not in remake. But there is two teams working on stuff.. I just say take h2 a this year then halo 5... but halo5 is sort of going to be very late this year could it slip I dont think so but if it did you would be enjoying h2a and yes 1080p.

Now crackdown 3 is heavily online think destiny. Story will be multi player like an mmo. I still feel tf is more about attack defence as cd3 is scale and roam. Building can and will be destroyed. You can even blow holes in the ground and continue into train tunnels.

Horizon 2 .. is really pushing the gfx level past turn10 :) .. dynamic weather is not the only addition to the game. You will be able to get out of the vehicles and enter the music festivals on foot. There will even be an action element to the story. They want a film feel to the game. There planning on a little mini series to tie in to the main game.. ms are investing big into the franchise.

The newest studio to sign on are full of many old devs who have worked on xbox og/ xbox 360 games.. they are working on a new I.p
its said to be set in a rage type of environment. But years after an alien attack.

And just to piss of the other side. But a franchise that you all wanted back is exclusive now and it ant gears.. but you all have to wait for e3.. have your pop corn ready :)

Misterx: Shenmue 3??

Insider: You know I cant tell you that directly. :)
But there is 3 high profile exclusives on the table. Sony is trying to beat the farm on one.. it is really a traditional sony franchise. But now it could be any body's. Id are all most finished there two I.p e3 will see one of these pushed this year. I think its going to be cool to go to Japan with fps this gen :)

I wish MS would update the Xbox website with all of the Xbox One social features. Not everyone wants to access this crap with Smart Glass.

Crazy that they are releasing a console revision so soon after launch, that's gotta be a record. Good for me though, especially if Kinect-less.
 
I could be wrong, but I had the impression that both the Xbox One and PS4 threads were "safe havens" for fans to get info and exclusively discuss that particular console. Not a place for arguments, even if it meant clearing up perceived FUD. Let the fanboys have their fun without fear of reprisal. The multiplat forum, particularly the sales thread, was a place for console war banter.

I see certain fanboys from each side that can't seem to stay away from the opposing threads and I agree they should get a warning and then a thread ban if they refuse to acknowledge the warning. There are plenty of places on this forum to argue points, these particular threads are not it.

That Crackdown rumor is interesting. Don't know how I feel about being more "MMO" oriented, but the blowing holes in the ground and tunneling sounds awesome.
 
Looks like some of those rumors might be legit after all...? Although this 'legal action' isn't exactly confirmed yet either....


Microsoft 'looking to take legal action' against Xbox One leaker
Microsoft is "looking to take legal action" against the person behind yesterday's Xbox One leaks, according to a Kotaku report.

Though the identity of the leaker still appears to be a mystery, the site claims to have been told by "one person familiar with the situation" that Microsoft is "currently trying to track down and identify" the person behind the leaks.

The informant, who goes by the alias of ntkrnl, is believed to have leaked multiple secrets about Microsoft's upcoming plans for Xbox One, including the first details on unannounced titles Halo 2: Anniversary, Forza Horizon 2 and Crackdown 3 and a delay for Halo 5.

They also claim that a white Xbox One console will release later this year and that a disc-less Xbox One could be in production.

In response to the alleged leaks, Microsoft told VideoGamer.com that it does not comment on rumour or speculation.

You don't need to be an internet warrior and constantly correcting other members because you disagree with something they've said about their preferred console especially if it's in a dedicated thread for that console.
 
The problem with these rumors is that many of them are obviously something that is easy to guess. A new Forza Horizon game, Titanfall console, a major dash update, etc. I mean, come on, you don't need to be an industry expert to guess at such things.

I'm pretty sure I could say with 90% certainty that there's going to be a major dashboard update in the next few months. Maybe I should start a blog? :cool:

If this is true..i reaaaaaaaaaally wonder what high profile exclusive that is. So it IS traditionally a Sony exclusive.....hmmm.

in this day and age, exclusive AAA titles are harder to keep exclusive, wouldn't surprise me to see a Sony exclusive, or someone like Naughty Dog, jump to include X1
