I have been proven correct (again)

Yes, alas. Around a week or so ago, When I mentioned resolution wasn't important and that in order to get the higher resolution the Playstation 4 would have to be downgraded in other more significant graphic aspects, the young people said 'troll', 'fool!' and other hurtful comments.Digital foundry (as expected) has examined thief and came to my factually based comment. Eurogamer (superior website)Sony's platform does run at a disadvantage in another regard though. Unlike the other versions, the PS4 uses trilinear filtering to treat floor and wall textures, creating a blur across far-away surfaces. It's a difference that sticks out when using the PC version's 16x anisotropic filtering, which itself is like-for-like with the clarity of the Xbox One release. Trilinear filtering is a cost-saving trick that suits games running at lower resolutions, where the tail-off in texture sharpness isn't so visible at a distance. For a game running at full 1080p though, Thief is doing itself a disservice here, and there's little to demonstrate why Sony's console can't compete with Microsoft's platform here. 'Xbox One's 900p resolution downgrade isn't as much of an issue as we thought it might be, while PS4's sub-par texture filtering comes as something of a surprise.'

Thief looks like a PS3/360 game with nicer textures and lighting. Its a sloppy pc port . This is this generations version of Prey!

Since I'm on my hunk of shit ipad maybe someone can post the Strider comparisons. The ONE has the superior version since it has more textures in place. The PS4 bypassed textures in entire areas like the floor and platforms.

Yeah bring up Strider that resource hog of a game. Great example.

@FoxbatAlpha:

Play it on my crappy laptop at twice the res and framerate of your console version. Good luck with that. Off you go back to rubbing down your "ONE"

Enjoy your machine that cannot outperform a mid range laptop from 2012.

This game is poorly optimized without a doubt.

So is MGS5:GZ. I don't even think Hideo's team even made the XB1 version. It obviously was create by another team who haven't a clue. Ryse & Quantum Break just proves how bad MSG5 programmers are. Even Forza 5 looks leagues better then MGS5:GZ on XB1.

You're comparing a corridor racer, with prebaked lighting sources and without a day/night cycle...to an open world TPS/tactical espionage gizmo with full dynamic lighting and real-time day/night cycles.

a corridor racer

open world TPS

Tha ****? Ground Zeroes proves Forza 5 is prebaked GAR-BITCH.

If anything, this shows just how much optimization is key on any platform.

There is no doubt that the Xbox is weaker in the hardware department. Yet here we see two different version of a game ported by different developers, with different results.

The Xbox version looks to be superior to the PS4 version. I am confident that developers right now are still figuring out both next gen platforms. Games are going to look better and better on each. Some developers are going to figure tricks out before others, and you will see differences between versions of games throughout this cycle.

Its kind of sad how many trolls infest System Wars. Simple discussions that could be good turn into a back and forth consisting of TLHBO, TCHBO. Yawn.
