I know it sounds dumb to compare them but Rev3games put up a "gameplay" comparison between the current and next gen version of the game but they mainly talked about graphics and in the video there is surprisingly little graphical difference. I'm guessing framerates and resolution is all better next gen but the details are shiockingly similar
Yeah, it's not that impressive. I guess you might as well pick it up along with your Ps4/Xbox One if you want to play it, but if you really want to play it, I see no reason not to just get it for 360/ps3.
I wonder how the WiiU version compares to the ps3/360.
Cross generation launch games are rarely more than a minimal improvement over previous gen hardware versions.
Not sure how many of you remember the start of the 360's life but every cross gen game would have looked the same as the PS2 version if not for the HD. In fact, most my 360 owning friends didn't have HDTVs yet and thats how we found that out.
With no SD to HD anymore, the differences will be even less this time around.
This video wasted it's time with too many cutscenes. With cutscenes, other than resolution (or possible screen tearing) you could almost do a comparison with max settings PC and it would barely matter. Especially when the youtube video is running 720p
When you watch the actual gameplay, the difference is far more clear.
That being said, I wouldn't buy a console just to see a "slight upgrade" of Assassin's Creed IV. It's still the same game. However obviously if you were getting a new console anyway, you wouldn't get this game on your old console.
Not surprising honestly with with a x-generational multiplat. Tempted to get it on PC but with BF4 around the corner (Preloaded ftw!!) i don't think i'll bother.
Seems like a pretty easy decision to me; if you are getting a next-gen console then wait to play AC on it, otherwise just get it for PS3/360. No matter what you decide you are playing a great game - at least from the reviews I've seen.
Honestly, youtube is not the best tool for graphical comparisons. Mamy subtle details such as smokes, particle effects, higher res textures are lost due to video compression. And that video wasn´t even 1080p.

Hello, Dave.
Xbox One > PS4, confirmed!
I would say wait for the superior Xbox One version.
i don't know what you expected, but from the ign and gamespot video reviews i can tell the ps4 version looks so much crisper and detailled. of course it's not the same step from ps2 to ps3, but i think it looks great (i'm not a pc gamer thoug, i guess pc gamers won't be impressed at all)

I got to see AC4 running at comic con on what looked to be PS4s these inter generational games while they never look as they can I can tell you one thing. It ran smooth as damn butter.
I was gonna wait until I get a PS4 for this. But if graphics/performance are 90% the same and it really is the improvement over III some reviews have said...perhaps not.
1080p, 60fps, no fog and draw distance improvements, better lighting and detail, dynamic weather and foliage... it's a cross gen game, but come on. If you agree with this, then you also can't have the double standard that PC multiplats can offer much more over console versions, and you know how much that was touted last gen, lol. Don't be ridiculous.
And yet you'll want to play on, especially on PS4, where the superb weather and particle effects, as well as improved draw distance and high-res textures, bolster Ubi Montreal's great environmental design and free-running pathfinding. Flawed yet addictive, this Creed needs to change. “

They are advantages but are they worth waiting an extra month if you're gonna be getting a console version?. That's all people are saying.

If it was a year, no. But 1 month, hell yes. Unless you're not going to be an early adopter.
ACIII looked pretty bleh on PC with max settings, honestly. It's not the prettiest franchise... it favors graphical breadth over visual depth. Having said that, I'm looking forward to playing the game. On PC.
Doesn't look too different, but it's a cross-generation game, so it was expected. I'll all for performance over visuals, so PS4 running at 1080p/60fps is improvement enough for me.

I'll never forget "gun".........
Hey, it looked like crap but it was still a decent game.

Gun vs Red Dead Redemption is a good example of the improvements we should expect from cross-gen games like AC4 to future PS4/X1 games. It's almost one generation gap!

An AC game running smooth? I'll believe it when I see it

What are you trying to prove?
PS4 version looks better in that gif.
Sucks that the esram of the Xbone is such a bottleneck.

@danabo: Are you posting that Gif from DF.Cause I think IGN has the best Comparison for BF4.Also DF admitted to making some Mistakes with their Comparison.
On topic:I am not surprised with how AC4 looks at all,between current gen and next gen.
The video only goes up to 720p for me, which is odd considering all of Rev3's stuff is usually in 1080p. A comparison video in 720p is useless and a waste of my time! It's IGN level of bullshit!

Any comparison on a compressed youtube video is useless. 1080p or not.
@Life-is-a-Game: Barely a difference and still pathetic. It looks no diff than alot of ps3 vs 360 ccomparisons where one is slightly better than the other
