Are there any confirmed games running in 1080p??

Lucky you, I had to drive almost an 2 hours my closest Micocenter through the nasty traffic of Philly, would have taken abour 30-40 minutes but traffic owned me. Was well worth the drive though.

I take my nephew there just about every other weekend, other than disney world MC is his favorite place to go.
 
I never said I knew how game optimization works. Do you?

It was stated before by developers themselves:

http://www.vg247.com/2013/03/11/ps4-will-out-power-most-pcs-for-years-to-come-says-just-cause-dev/

On a PC, frame buffer resolution is set by the user. The game is optimized for other things (i.e. physics, shaders, collision detection, LOD, lighting complexity, etc.. etc..). I never said the PC was optimized for resolution. A console, however, has a stricter budget - framerate must be really close to the target.

First my apologies, I sometimes come off as a d-bag and that was not my intent.

Yes and no, I do 3d graphics and coding, though no where near game level design like AAA titles. But when my simple game needs to meet simple targets everything comes into context. At this time my game engine of choice is a huge limiting factor and not hardware. Like having a model target of 1k triangles, yet making it look like it had 3-10k triangles.

At any rate, I would not use that link for much. 'The ps4 will out do pc's cause it has 8gb of ram?' That was his reasoning. We know the ps4 will use 5gb of ram. Most pc's that are considered gaming rigs, will have 3gb of gpu ram and 2-4gigs of main ram for games.

The only thing that could make it more powerfull, the ps4 or x1, is that they do not have to target hundreds of different setups and resolutions. Meaning faster dev time and more time that can be spent on optimizations, such as LOD, models, textures, effects, and their display coding.

I would garner that if ryse was never mentioned to be 900p, no one would have noticed.

Even then, it would be a stretch. We would have to define "more powerful" in this context. Does that mean better framerates, more textures on screen per frame, more polygons being rendered per frame, higher resolution, etc..?

It's biased to say that the PS4 is more powerful than the PC (even a mid-low range) because it would all depend on what that definition means.

In any case, yea, mid-high end PC *is* more powerful in raw throughput. Now turning on all the assets for the game and maintaining a target framerate is a different matter. I'd assume that you'd need to turn down something on the next-gen consoles to maintain image fidelity compared to the PC.

I would garner that if ryse was never mentioned to be 900p, no one would have noticed.

Probably not, but as programmers/artists, we can pick up on other things that are blantantly obvious - like QTE integrated into the combat as opposed to just implementing a seamless combat system like Dark Souls. I'll be able to tell more cheats in Ryse as I see the game in action. I'm willing to bet that the engine doesn't use anywhere near the advanced features of the CryEngine 3 demo (area lights, displacement mapping, real-time reflections, dynamic GI, etc..).

People would most definitely know, maybe not notice visually at first. You have all those idiotic people who pixel count games, look at Halo 3 for example. It was running at some wierd resolution, like 690(?) and people stopped to count the missing 30 pixels...

People be crazy.
