It happens all the time, hell there are people here who claim digital foundry only does head to heads when it favors the PS4 and act like there is some conspiracy against the X1 lol. Everytime there is an advantage pointed out about the PS4 version of a game there are several Xbox One defenders who come in and say "oh who cares" or "you can't even tell" and it's just stupid. Also I'm glad you enjoy snapping between NFL and Netflix, I find that to be a pointless thing to because I'm not the kind of viewer that switches between things over and over but if you enjoy it that's great, it's not something that'd sell me on a video game console though.
Concerning doing three things at once: how do you know your not the type? When's the last time you were able to do anything like that with a gaming console? And because some of us don't elevate pixels or frames as a reason to shout from the rooftops, doesn't make us stupid. You forget we've got actual bullet points to actually shout about that make up for missing pixels and frames. I could easily say not being able to switch from my game to my Seahawks with my voice is equally stupid. But you don't like options. I get it. I do however. Keep your extra pixels...
 
Thanks for proving my point Dno69. It may not have been as smooth but you'd be perfectly happy regardless. These aren't deal breaker here. The games aren't broken and you still get one hundred percent satisfaction with your purchase with less frames. Plus, you still can check on your friends, take a Skype call, read an article on Reddit, switch to netflix when you've played enough and your game will be waiting for you when you decide to play again, right where you left it.

Youll even be able to do all of these things when the new Assassin's releases at 900p. If you buy it, that is. And it's a multi platform release.

It's actually pretty incredible how well my One stacks up against the competition considering all it does behind the scenes.

:ysweat:

Definitely not a deal breaker.

In the case of Alien Isolation (I have correct myself) it wasn't so much the frame drops as the issue seemed to be a loading issue. When entering a new areas it would stutter.
 
i know this is late but would PS4 only players want them to delay the game for 2 months on PS4 to get it to 1080p?

since why should X1 veersion be delayed to put more work into PS4 version? :p

We don't even know if the parity is by choice or not. Initial statement shows it was but then they retracted it because it caused more debates than if they didn't say anything at all.

I'm not the type, I have both consoles. I'd rather just open up my laptop to look at other things then decrease my estate on the TV screen. When I'm gaming I don't do anything else like care about some sports game. If I do care, I'd be watching that instead of gaming.

My most frequent use of snap is the TV, and it's not for me to watch TV. My wife watches TV in the snap while I play. Of course, I prefer the extra real estate, but I like having her by me while I game. The other things I use snap for is mostly Achievements, Friends List and Internet Explorer (for music while gaming). Snapping is great...but with the multitasking, it's the game standby for the last 3 apps. I love that I can just back out of a game, or an app, and my game is still there, live ready to go. I think I had gone a few days without playing a game, but I was watching TV through my Xbox (which is how we watch TV), and I was on Internet Explorer during those days. I then wanted to get back to where I was in Forza Horizon, I hit the B button, and there it was like I left her a few days ago. Going through my apps like that is pretty nice.

Could I do without all that? Absolutely. I do just that on my PS4 when play. Do I wish the multiplatform games on the X1 were a match for match in every instance with the PS4? Why wouldn't I. Would I give up a few pixels or framerates (that I don't notice that much) for the convenience of the multiple operating systems for multi-tasking? In my scenario, absolutely.

My scenario isn't for everyone. Like JinCA said above, NONE of that interests him, so it only makes sense for him to buy the platform and game on that platform because it meets his or her needs. I wouldn't think any less of him (or more) because he chose what is ideal for his gaming habits. Just like I would hope nobody would discount me for what I found works for me.

I am not afraid to admit when I am wrong or if I wasted time championing some wasted feature or resource. I was the first to admit that I was praising Kinect till the cows came home. I wasted my time...I found it really didn't suit my habits, and I have since changed my tune on Kinect. I did hook it back up, but I never use it.

I only hooked the Kinect so I could say "Xbox On". :txbcool:

You really are strange, I don't like options because I don't care to go back and forth between a football game and netflix? WTF would I watch during timeouts in a football game? As I said I'm glad YOU like it but I have no use for something like that. I don't watch most live tv other than sports, I DVR shows so I can skip the commercials but if I am watching a football game I'm sure as hell not going to go back and forth to netflix or a video game for 30 seconds-2 minutes of something else.
 
I want my games to look the best they can and perform the best they can, PS4 happens to still have the higher resolution and better framerate with more objects and things shown, however i also happen to only have Xbox One so far and that won't change anytime soon. Simply no money for another console and also...just for a slightly higher resolution and framerate, i don't find it worth it. However when i get one sometime next year and the difference keeps happening in multiplats, there's a chance i will go for the PS4 version.

Even though i prefer Xbox because of the controller, its battery life, talking with friends over Live etc. We'll just have to wait and see what the future will bring, will it improve for Xbox One and that it gets 1080p more often too with a similar framerate to it's PS4 counterpart? Or will the gap actually become bigger? Bioware already said they used all systems to their full potential, so i can see some noticeable differences for DAI and also GTA V....it wouldn't surprise me. Also The Evil Within, game already isn't much of a looker, but manages to even stay below 1080p on both systems, and again the PS4 version has the edge.

We'll have to wait and see.

its not always about the resolution nor the fps. these are small potatoes. the key is what ELSE you are able to do with more hp. this is where the majority lack the understanding.

WTF wouldn't you do them both if you had the option? There is really nothing quite like watching the game, then at half time you switch over to FH2 or snap your fantasy teams for an update. I'm not saying you have to do it, but seriously why the hell wouldn't you?

It's weird. Like it's against a religion or something.

No, I wouldn't do it either. I'm either watching a sports game or playing a game. I don't do both. And even if you do both, you can just as easily have the same experience on your PS4... it's called the TV input button.

The fantasy teams I don't even touch on my consoles, takes way too long to navigate. I leave that for my PC/laptop/phone.

Against a religion? believe me if you were talking against religion I'd be backing you up 100% lol. I don't play fantasy football, I don't go over to a video game at half time etc and if I wanted to I could in much less than a minute with my controller and ps4 so again it's not a big deal to me.

where this feature really separates itself from most devices pertaining to watching something and playing the game at the same time would be the Snap feature. before they took the loot cave out of Destiny I cannot tell you how many times I would snap a sports game to the smaller screen to the right to help kill time while I was farming the loot cave. that's a pretty neat feature that I use a lot for incidences stated above.

Sure its nice & all, except most of these fancy feature are design for NA, & most people do not think it matters that much, or think its not worth the extra 100 bucks, Otherwise why do people wanted Kinect to be dropped & why PS4 continue to outsold X1 by a wide margin. If Kinect is so good, all the game media will go gaga over X1, recommending X1 over PS4 etc, & X1 would have sell better.

Nope. Two things on one screen is different from constantly switching back and forth. On top of this, snap is more than just having video snapped. I like using snap to see my Xbox One friends list when watching TV for example.

Outside of that, I like using snap to watch TV when I'm playing a game (or a mode in a game) with a lot of menus. For example, when I manage franchise modes in sports games I usually have TV snapped. Really impossible for it to be a distraction for that. I also like to quickly snap TV during sports games when I'm in a lobby waiting for a game to start. It alongside kinect makes it very fast/instant to use.

Combine that with features like having my whole A/V setup turn on just by saying "Xbox On", being able to start any XB1 game instantly just by saying its name (since all of my games are digital), video chat and streaming, kinect games like D4 and Dance Central, and a few more features and overall I definitely feel like I got $100 worth out of kinect with the Xbox One -- I basically use it in some way everyday.

Anyway, I'm really getting tired of how much of a huge console war this forum is becoming. The blatant "I'll make a dig at the console I don't own but at the same time try to sound like I don't want the opposition to fail" (or I guess "stealth trolling") is becoming more obvious as these months go by. How did we even get to a discussion about this in this Assassin's Creed thread?

Kinect is pretty much useless in Japan.
even games like Dead Rising 3 is not compatible with Japanese voice command.

Well, this is not a Unity Gameplay thread, if its not obvious. But you can check here.

People hoping the opposite console to fail is not because of stealth trolling, but because people do not want a monopoly.

I'm happy for you , unfortunately I don't share the same views.

PS fans despise the multi-tasking/snap of Xbox, and Xbox fans love it. What are you gonna do?

I'm an Xbox as well as Playstation and Nintendo. But I don't snap anything.

The feature that I use most is resume. I can go from a game to Netflix and back and resume each where I left off.

I almost never use the snap feature. I like my full screen. That said, I use Kinect almost exclusively for navigation- both voice and gesture. I am irritated that certain third party apps suck at the gesture implementation, or even seem to have completely removed it (I'm looking at YOU, Netflix). MS needs to show them how it's done (or do it for them), because it works flawlessly on their apps (dashboard, Xbox Music, Xbox video).

I DO NOT like having to use my controller for anything but games anymore.
 
ADD indeed. Some people can simply not be not doing something at all times. I personally have no desire to have something snapped,but great for people who want that option. Options are good
