Oh please. No mention of the Playstation could happen and you'd still be in this thread, you people simply can't help yourselves, lol of course you aren't discussing the xbox in playstation threads since you're too busy hanging in xbox related threads s***ting them up. Go figure...

The past 39 pages without a single post yet I'm "too busy hanging out in here." LOL.

If you are a PS4 fan....in here defending the system...I ask you why are you in the XBOX DISCUSSION and in the XBOX THREAD?
We have a multiconsole subforum for you.....it doesn't make sense other than to troll..
If you have a beef with what is brought up here vent in the subforum.

True, and at the same time, I've noticed a marked propensity for X1 fans to continually bring up the subject of comparison to the PS4 and Sony. It's like they can't help it, it's almost a compulsion. They complain, they say please let's not have the thread become about the PS4 vs. X1. Yet, often, it's the X1 fans who are introducing PS4 and Sony into the conversation in the first place.

So like I tell the PS4 guys on the other forum, if you want me (us) to keep this thread free of arguments about X1 vs. PS4, then stop putting out the bait and stop bringing up the subject yourself. If you want the thread free of "vs PS4" talk, then stop bringing up the PS4 and Sony.

Ok, that's my little rant for the evening.

Sony fans can't seem to handle themsleves with any little success the company has. A sad sight really. Makes you wonder what these fans would happen if Sony finally went bankrupt.
 
Good example of what I'm talking about.

A tv shows 60 fps, a game running at 60 fps is oc the best, second best is 30 fps, a picture every second frame on the tv. A game running 40 or 50 aren't good, it can give screen tearing on the tv bc it's not in sync with a tv's framerate
I'm pretty sure that you are wrong. Most movies are 23.976fps which says ntsc tv can display 1 to 60fps. Also European tvs (pal) are 50fps so for them 60fps will still be displayed at 50.
 
Only on Union can you find xbox fanboys trying to basically say lower fps is better.
And only on union can you find people who say that everyone thinks like them. But actually some like consistency vs higher numbers like you

did i just read that because the ps4 rate of 50 drops to 40 which is still 10fps faster than that of the xbox ones 29, that the xbox is better because it only dropped 1fps even though thats still 10 lower then that of the ps4?

seriously!

and isn't there a ps4 v. xbox one thread somewhere?

Im not comparing xbox vs ps4, but rather just discussing tombraider on x1, so I dont see what the big deal is bringing that up in this thread where others have questioned why ps4 tombraider is running better. Anyway, you are comparing 29 vs 50fps, I was not. I was comparing the gameplay experience, and while I prefer 60 to 30, I also prefer a locked 30 to a jumpy 40-60. Ps4 version is higher because its unlocked, x1 is capped. Comparing the two directly is pointless for the most part.

And in regards to what I said about polygon scoring the two differently, I read that on neogaf. Never confirmed it, so I wasnt lying like I others implied. I thought it was true.
 
Anyways, whats everyone playing mostly these days?

Killer instinct, BF4, followed by occassional peggle, dead rising, and rivals for me. I have just about every good launch game, and like them all, but these get most my time. Not getting too excited for titanfall, as I want to keep my expectations realistic.
 
So far I have played

RYSE: Son of Rome
Forza 5
Call of Duty Ghosts
Battlefield 4
Dead Rising 3

I still have NBA 2K14, Killer Instinct, Need for Speed Rivals, Assassins Creed 4, and Lego Marvel Super Heroes that need to be played.
 
Ryse
Forza
BF4

Not picking up Tomb Raider as I already have the "definitive" edition on my PC. My next purchase will be Titan Fall.
 
Dead Rising
Ryse
FIFA
Crimson Dragon
Max curse of brotherhood
Just Dance for me and should have Zoo Tycoon today or tomorrow. Waiting for story mode before getting into KI.

Get a feeling Lococycle will be on offer next week so shall grab that.
 
Played so far:

BF4 (my least favorite simply because of the amount of issues)
Dead Rising 3 (great great game, except it has ridiculous patch sizes)
Ryse. (Another great game. Didn't like the demo I played, turns out I love the retail version)
Assassin's Creed 4 (Pirates!!! nuff said)
FIFA 14

Upcoming:
Tomb Raider (picking it up Friday)
Plants vs Zombies
Titanfall

Pretty diverse bunch of games.

Only 6 weeks to that last one. I will likely get my Xbox one the week before.

Can not friggin wait either. Have you sourced your X1 yet? I'd recommend getting it a week or two before Titanfall so you can learn to accept the futility of trying to execute simple tasks on the UI.

Not to sound naive, but I doubt it will take me long to get used to the UI.

No, haven't really sourced it yet, but game is saying there stock is pretty much up to par with demand now. So I shouldn't have issues getting one in 4-5 weeks time.
 
Still going through Lego Marvel Superheroes myself. Past 2 weeks my gaming time has drastically slipped.
 
Been playing KI mostly but i took a break from it to play more DR3. Which i am enjoying a Hell of a lot more than i did the first two games in the series. Also Max: Curse of Brotherhood. I just bought Crimson Dragon last night but i haven't started playing it yet.

This is the update that is coming. Rumored to be march sometime.

http://www.engadget.com/2014/01/08/xbox-one-updates/

Ok good good. Marc Whitten speaks about how its hard to get in a party now, but from what i understand is that its not hard. It's just not possible if someone wants to play BF4 online and is looking for a match and another person is gonna play Ryse online match. They just need to let you stay in a friends party chat. I was hoping for that rumoured graphics update patch too, but nothing like that in the article.
 
I can't help it, there is a lot of crazy rolling in this week....so here's more (for fun/novelty purposes only of course):

MisterX's Insider is back in full force this week :grin: I love the grammer, but English isn't the first language...obviously.

Sony had alph and sdk's out 10/14 months before ms ... all these old engine games were port overs from ps4 code. Not one of them have taken advantage of x1 architecture. The reason why x1 has suffered is only due to 3rd part devs not putting there new engines out .. cross platform games. And this also falls on the constraints that publishers have had to face there is 120+ million xbox360 / ps3 and not everybody is jumping straight onto next gen.. the smart studio know that making 360/ps3 games will sell and can fund there next generation games.. like an unofficial kick starter. Turn 10 is the only dev to have hands on the whole evolution of alpha to final sdk. That is why forza 5 is 1080p 60fps. But even they did not make a whole new engine. They were build one next to the dev time spent on forza 5. Forza 6 will be a huge jump over what was at launch. Horizon 2 will use new features .. but pgr should be getting wispers soon...

Also ms has invested a huge investment in epic .. I would diffently call them 1st party now... also black tusk has three projects in development now. So do not think gears is there one sole focus.
Same can be said about 343 and rare has two massive surprises up there sleeve this year and it ant sports :)
But gears has been in developing stages for well over 10 months now. But nothing is finalised as the "new" engine is getting tweaks to support f-series there will be some hybrid 3rd and fps blending..
And no matter what you hear .. epic's tim was heavily involved in some of Ms x1 architecture features.. He and the crytek crew were constantly involved.. And because of this x1 will really out shine..
e3 will blow peoples minds.. no fog .. and no 720p 30fps.. I cant wait till you see tier2 textures. And the fact its not a performance bottleneck on the system.

If you grew up with xbox .. your going to love what is coming. The worst thing for sony is in the playstation catalogue most the 3rd party games licence have expired so any title can be published on any platform so there in its self is a lot of I.p's hd remake or sequel headed our way.

And w3 is 1080p 30fps on both.. this engine has had tweaks not full hw tho.

Interesting stuff, but the Sony stuff seems a bit overly negative from them. We all know Sony has plenty of promising new IP in the making. Either way..the Xbox stuff sounds good, but yeah....the source. Has this source ever had anything correct? :)

Sometimes, but not usually. Still, it's like playing the lottery; I'll probably never win but it's fun to buy a ticket every once in a while. :hehe:

Haha yeah true true. Some things do make a lot of sense though, that Sony had alphas an devkits long before MS. But the other stuff...pgr...Rare...yeah...we'll see. :) I am VERY f***ing ready for a true platformer from Rare though.
 
I'm always playing KI with occasional breaks for DR3, Forza 5, and I just received Ryse yesterday through Gamefly.

That sounds like an xbox fans wet dream after a night heavy of psychedelics. So while I will take it with a huge grain of salt - about the size of france- I will indulge.

So, PGR coming - I know I just did - is great. Love the series and think it is a great time to bring it back. The talk of new Ip's blowing people away is believable, to a point. I mean, these will be the games that were not rushed, not using old engines, and built specifically for the xbox hardware.

As I said in another thread, " E3 should be great this year."

The first part sounds believeable. Not sure what to think of MS investing in Epic and Black Tusk working on multiple projects.....maybe. But aren't they a rather small team? 343i not only making Halo games sounds like a really good thing,but i highly doubt that. Wasn't it already stated that they ARE doing solely Halo stuff now? No fog and 720p at E3....what does he mean with fog? Either way, no more 720p would be very good, so far that has only been KI and CoD, right?
