Somethin' I cooked up. Let me know if it needs correcting.
Interesting. I knew that COD was sub-HD but I didn't know that some of the 360 and PS3 versions of the same game (e.g.: Black Ops) ran in different resolutions.
Nice job BTW.

Assassin's Creed 4 is on deck.
And the Xbox division.

Only if you focus entirely on the US, and the gap between systems isn't as large as some people perceive.I would say 360 was "the" console of last gen like ps2 was last gen.
That and Rivals will be the most interesting. Activision and DICE were letting people at least see the Xbox One version of CoD and BF4. Game Informer mentioned yesterday that they were allowed to review the PS4 version of AC4 but not the Xbox One version.
They forgot to check the 'secret sauce' radio button on the compiler. Happens to all of us.
This belongs to Sony. You got it twisted, however I agree with the rest of your post. I don't like the Xbox though having one because Microsoft is a huge rip off... But I do understand that the experience is what keeps people at bay with Xbox. They don't care about all that extra stuff or lack of. Game wise however especially in variety, concept, risk, presentation, etc.... That's all Sony imo
I should have elaborated more. Them winning the core a while back guaranteed them that crowd for the most part. By that inherited right (which was earned), they have had the most success in terms of multiplatform sales for games like GTA or almost any major release.
What I'm getting at is Sony's production and track record with games has been better the last few years vs MSFT's kinect focused efforts and multiplatform games on top of some of the games you noted.
That distinction will carry over to this generation since it looks like Sony is continuing that path of great games and in large quantities with PS4.
That there should carry it for a while and they haven't announced hardly anything from their top talent.
That kind of situation will play itself out and I have no doubt now that Sony has the price on their side on top of the games advantage that the rolls will be reversed. I have a harder time seeing them dominate in the states though but things are looking a lot better for them right now.
If the major bad news for Sony is lack of BG's, MP3, or DLNA at launch then I think they've done quite well.
I think I wouldn't have said the same for MSFT but despite all the riff raff the forum goes over they've made some strides.
I agree that Sony pumps out some amazing exclusives, something I hope MSFT gets going on. But to a core audience, I think the next 12 months shine favorably on the Xbox One. Titanfall alone is a system seller, throw in Halo 5, Quantum Break, Sunset Overdrive, DR3, Forza, Ryse and a plethora of awesome multiplatform titles, they are looking pretty good. Hopefully they will maintain this kind of lineup year after year, I still have hope for a RARE comeback.
Imagine if some guy said this. "I don't wanna spend a bunch of time sending out of friend requests again or setting up a profile or uploading pics so I'm gonna stay on myspace for the rest of my life."
You really think a friends list and some achievements (how many people care about them is a big question mark) is going to somehow lock people into a brand forever?

If this is true i'd wonder why Xbone isn't leading in preoerders. To me its seems like a lot of people have switched over to the PS4 side.I believe that an ecosystem that people have built for almost 10 years is very important to them. I believe that easily trumps resolution comparisons along with a $100 price difference. We will see who is right somewhere down the road when it comes to this.

What do people think about this tidbit from IGNs article two days ago, sourced by our own Mort...
"Activision has remained mute so far because work is being done to get the game up to the native 1080p mark on Microsoft's console as soon as possible; whether this is done by a patch on day one or later down the line remains to be seen."

Yeah they have a strong line up. I still feel Sony should have somehow held their exclusives for the PS3 and released them on the PS4. Just the fact that GT6, Sony's biggest franchise is being released on the PS3 after the PS4 launch is just weird
At first I was like "but where is the PS4 resolution?"
Then I was like "Oh shit, I'm standing on it!"
Very telling comparison.
It was ,even Jeff Gerstmann said it along with others.
I would say 360 was "the" console of last gen like ps2 was last gen.

The GT6 situation makes zero sense to me. You put that up against Forza 5 and you have those who were going to buy it on PS3 shelling out the cash to upgrade for the chance to play GT6 on PS4.

I will say pricing something right can do wonders, IF MS drops the Kinect and can get out a $299 XBO soon, they will kill the PS4
Please dont come into these image quality comparison threads and try and justify that image quality doesn't matter to some other guy that I dont give a fuck about. It is disingenuous.

Yea I agree, even that new Ratchet and Clank which looks awesome is only coming to PS3.

I agree that it would be a good idea to throw GT6 on PS4, but I also think it's a nice sign of goodwill for Sony. "Even though we're launching a new console this holiday, we're still supporting the last console you with huge exclusives as well, and you can expect the same treatment for the PS4 as well"
There is no ecosystem for either console. An ecosystem is everything. Music, apps, hardware, peripherals, etc. all of that is being thrown out the door this gen transition. Friends and achievements are nowhere near an ecosystem. It's a social network, something we see changed, birthed, shutdown, fled from and migrated to almost every other year. Had games, peripherals and apps carried over I'd say there was more ground to stand on. But a friends list? I think you'll be quite shocked by how many people will gladly give that up to move to a different social network where some of their friends already moved to. It's what happened with our group.I believe that an ecosystem that people have built for almost 10 years is very important to them. I believe that easily trumps resolution comparisons along with a $100 price difference. We will see who is right somewhere down the road when it comes to this.
Jeff Gerstmann said it? Oh shit! That means everything
Ubisoft's reluctance to show the Xbox version is quite telling.
That price definitely had a huge part in how things went, no doubt. This is off topic, but I always hear about the last few years and how Sony blew MS out of the water with their exclusives. That may be the case, but MS built something this gen with the COD, Madden, Halo and Gears crowd that Sony couldn't overcome, no matter the quality of exclusives.
