Alien: Isolation runs at 1080p on both Xbox One and PS4, and in terms of framerate it's roughly the same across both platforms, Creative Assembly Lead Game Designer Gary Napper tells OXM. "When I think about working on the game, it's almost platform agnostic because I only think about the...




Dun, dun, dunnnnnnn!! The "It's not graphically demanding" statement coming in 3..............2.............1

Just goes to show, again, and from here on out, the X1 hardware was always capable of 1080p but now the devs are getting their head around the systems.
 
It shouldn't come as a suprise to people, it's common knowledge that the launch sdk wasn't up to scratch for the X1.
It's funny now looking back just a few months to all those articles saying X1 wasn't capable of 1080p even though it launched with Forza 1080p @ 60fps.
 
I really didn't expect near parity this early on honestly. Nice for xb1 only owners for sure.

Wouldn't have just been easier to simply type "Really?" in your all English sentence? :eek:
 
I used to play Aliens on the Amstrad CPC 464 at 160x200 pixels...

You could recreate this screenshot with Lego.
 
I'm still trying to decide if this game looks boring like any other Aliens game or actually good. Still got time to decide

You know you're on the cutting edge of graphics when your 'Ripley' character model looks like Joe Pesci.

Yeah, I did used to think it was weird when the alien confronted you and this text came on the screen...

"You mean, let me understand this cause, ya know maybe it's me, I'm a little f***ed up maybe, but I'm funny how, I mean funny like I'm a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh, I'm here to f***in' amuse you? What do you mean funny, funny how? How am I funny?"

Good news for sure. I hope i can assume this is something that will only happen more and more. So for example GTA V remastered, Witcher 3, Dragon Age Inquisition and so on. There have been some developers though that said resolutions for their game on X1 was uncertain yet, Lords of the Fallen for example. I wonder if every single developer has their hands on the latest SKU?

And this is hard or inconvenient to me how exactly? It's a button press. The romaji is there for the topic starter, the hiragana is there for fun. Are you the fun police? Is that's what's going on?

Am I under arrest? :eek:

Not at all, I just found it hilarious; reminds me of anime forums where everyone shows off that one Japanese word they learned watching Naruto. Carry on sir.

Generalizations!..Classy, Mr Mod. I have absolutely nothing to do with that! Nice try, though. Gotta try a bit harder next time. :laugh:

I never said you had anything to do with that @_@. That stated, I derailed this topic. So I apologize.

....keep PS4 version at 1080p and simply push better shadows, lighting, effects, and shading on the PS4 version?

Not likely to happen in multiplats I think more solid frame rates will be the norm. Expect ps4 exclusives to use the extra grunt.

If the weaker console is not the lead platform, then it never sets the pace and holds the other back. I expect this gen to follow the same path the 360/PS3 gen where the Xbox 360 was the lead version and always looked better and ran better due to having the strongest GPU of its generation (the despised and frustrating potential of the Cell put aside of course.) But that's just my outlook.

I feel the opposite I expect Xbox One exclusives to shine/use the extra grunt.
Differences in 3rd party games will and have been more apparent this gen then the last.
SOMETIMES things will be even but in many cases the PS4 versions will have the advantage.

I feel that PS4 will have the best looking exclusives/multiplatforms when all is said and done but X1 will still have nice looking games.

PS4 has 40%+ more tflop, better ram, more CUs and a better gpu. If more and more X1 games are 1080p, PS4 games should be gravitating to the next logical resolution.... 1440p?

Since when has 40 percent faster ram which means nothing because with esram x1 matches bandwidth wise. It's just that esram is not as much as they should have put in there. Ps4 has the slower CPU also xbox one has more ram available for games the ps4 which reserves more ram for os stuff. Since launch the x1 has been gimped with kinetic taking 10percent gnu and yet games still look play same except for 100 lines of resolution here and there. I think xbox one will be 1080p home free from next fall. I wonder where the goal posts will be moved to then.

the eSRAM isn't emough to fill in the gaps...

Both consoles hit the same bottlenecks, it doesn't matter which one has the most raw power. The PS4 is like the Persian army while the Xbox One is like the Spartans at the Battle of Thermopylae. The narrow pass where the Spartans made their last stand against the vastly huge Persians is the bottleneck.
