Reading people arguing over the most minute little details in a game is ridiculous. Console fanboys brag about their systems having better shadows or better lighting, but honestly who cares? XO and PS4 will have the same multiplats: same gameplay, same imagery, and same storyline.

I don't think that anyone pays that close attention to the graphics of a guy's head or how realistic facial hair looks while playing a game. The whole graphics debate is a waste of time when the games will all look and play similar enough to each other..

I don't understand how it can be considered a debate when a clear winner has been decided already.

If Lemmings would just admit their console is technically inferior to the PS4 while costing $100 more that'd be great

I like talking about graphics, but it's hard to do when so much of the 'evidence' has compression artefacts, half of the original frames omitted etc.

Personally TC, I'm pretty happy with the level of graphics on each of the three consoles. Not impressed by any means, however, they've got enough grunt to do what they need to do for the next decade or so.

Just hand the specification war to the PS4, and move on to talking about games, enjoyment, etc.

talking about gameplay is pointless since everybody have widely different taste so we argue about graphics which can be measured and then about review scores when the game's out. If you like a game or not it's irrelevant.

@ReadingRainbow4:

Look man I know you love Sony but let's be real here. The BF4 shots I've seen on the One look better. A picture is worth a thousand words. You guys can go on and on about specs which I agree are just as important. But if the final visuals don't seem to fit the bumper sticker specs well then all the spec talk is nothing but hot air. But hey if you like your games blurry and washed out more power to you.

Also both Ryse and kz4 look good and in all honesty you can make a case for both. I just find Ryse to look a bit better. So no there is no clear cut winner.

@Krelian-co: At this point I wouldn't even include the Wii U. Heck, ever since the Wii Nintendo has admittedly not been trying to compete with Sony and Microsoft in the same scenario (and it worked for them with the Wii). To be honest, I think a -lot- of PC gamers find the Wii U to be the most attractive second choice (that or the PS4, I think) - it actually does something different (perhaps this was more true for the Wii, haven't had the chance to fiddle with the Wii U's control scheme), rather than just poorly emulate what a PC can do.

Welcome to SW. If the differences are big enough, I get it. If we're talking 360/PS3 type multiplats (for the most part), then it's just dumb.

@danabo: Much appreciated. Thanks.

I've been wondering for a while.

That being said, it is old as f*ck. I wonder if it takes technology advances into account.

If this place is offending you then you can go QQ somewhere else. PS4 has better graphics. This may not be significant for some at launch, but it could play a huge role down the road.

We already know PS4 is stronger, but it could be significantly stronger and we may see Xbone version getting the Wii Eww treatment. (AKA gimped product)

why even making these kind of threads when SW always was and will be about graphics not because graphics is all that matter but because its with graphics/pics/vids you 'own' other fanboys. Get used to it already

Right there with ya. Two gens back the xbox had better graphics, I still owned and loved the PS2. Last gen the PS3 had the edge, I still owned and enjoyed both. This gen PS4 can have as much lead as cows want, I'll still own and enjoy both. Because of games.
