impossible. is polygon a trusted site?

Microsoft gave them $700,000.

 

[Hex]

Yeah, I will wait for almost anyone else's opinion on this one first

 

[Colonel Nasty]

Ign said the same thing.

 

[chubigans]

I'm confused...you think they're lying?

I don't think they're lying. I don't think I'd take the technical comparisons from someone who can't tell the difference between 720p and 1080p.

 

[borghe]

nevermind. false alarm. was thinking of BF4.

 

[SwiftDeath]

#NextGencancelled

Choose lower res or less stable framerate

Loving that next gen experience

 

[funkystudent]

I wonder if you play COD on ps4 in 720p will be smooth out the framerate?

Game seems like a hot mess anyway. Regardless of platform.

Downplaying the resolution but uplaying any FR hiccups is totally Polygon though and kind makes it hard to take any technical comments seriously from these fools.

 

[Canis lupus]

It's possible that the PS4 version looked somewhat sharper, but that may have just been my imagination after confirming the hard resolution difference.

puahahaha

 

[Coldnoodle]

I'm here for the fun.

 

[Azlan]

Oh boy oh boy. I think the only take away is that whichever console you chose you are getting a good version of COD Ghosts (if you want it). Trying to extrapolate extra information from the performance of launch titles seems a bit silly.

 

[daman824]

In games like these where maintaining 60fps is key, performance is always more important than resolution. I have no idea why ininity ward didn't drop the ps4 resolution as well. They could have just dropped it to 900p and it still would have been higher than xb1 + more stable than it is now.

 

[silver.tongue]

DUN DUN DUUUUUUUNNNNNNN!

Edit: Most people won't care, but this is interesting indeed.

Yes.

 

[Kajiba]

Perfect gif for whats about to happen lol.

 

[Dead Prince]

you play the fps. not the game.

 

[Always-honest]

Haha, oh damn. I'm not interested in this game, but Xboxone fans will use this to their advantage.

I do expect other reviewers to see more of a difference in iQ though

 

[BruiserBear]

The press are all over the freaking place with Ghosts on next gen.

IGN says the campaign had framerate issues on PS4, but not in multi.

Polygon says the PS4 version had framerate issues in both.

Videogamer.com says the PS4 version looks significantly better, and the XB1 version kinda looks bad, but makes no mention of framerate problems on either.

GiantBomb says the PS4 version has framerate issues in campaign and multi. Hasn't commented on the XB1 version yet.

GameInformer says they didn't notice any framerate issues on the PS4 version.

 

[Tobor]

Gies strikes back for his overlords.

 

[Rey]

Am I missing something? Xbone 7 and PS4 6.5

 

[artist]

Just an FYI .. I made that GIF before Polygon's "update" to the scores.

 

[Rizific]

oh this is going to be good.

 

[Derrick01]

Anyone who gets upset over review differences with this trash game is a fool. Everyone should be uniting to avoid buying this game for better launch options like BF4 and Killzone.

 

[Sethos]

Microsoft gave them $700,000.

+

so DF's technical framerate analysis was wrong, but this guy eyeballing it is right.

=

Unbiased review from a very trustworthy reviewer.

 

[Knoxcore]

I'll shout it on Mount Everest for the whole world to hear--resolution does not matter. It is all about the framerate. I'm not getting an Xbox but I just have to smile and shake my head at all the PS4 fanboys right now.

 

[Fried Food]

It's healthy for the industry if both platforms have victoris. Poluo ijutkepihis fair

 

[RedNumberFive]

Yes.

Since when?

 

[Lunchbox]

Cerny help!

 

[cutmeamango]

Polygon readers are worse than Polygon writers.

 

[reKon]

this is amazing

 

[keit4]

From the IGN review:

On the current-gen versions Ghosts looks nearly identical, though I did encounter occasional framerate issues during the single-player campaign on PS3 and PS4, whereas my time with the Xbox One version was stable throughout.

 

[KingSnake]

This will be fun. popcorn.gif

 

[coldfoot]

Microsoft gave them $700,000.

They should have given them 20k more.

well done geis

IGN:

When comparing the PS4 and Xbox One versions side-by-side, there’s little to no variation in textures and effects, but there is a discernible difference in resolution. While both are displayed at 1080p, the Xbox One version upscales the game from 720p resolution. In contrast, the PS4 version runs natively at 1080p, which makes character models, weapons, and environments look noticeably sharper and more detailed.

Polygon:

It's possible that the PS4 version looked somewhat sharper, but that may have just been my imagination after confirming the hard resolution difference.

 

[140.85]

This game.

 

[Speedy Blue Dude]

Well, only one with a steady frame rate, and it has early access to DLC. I can see why it has a .5 higher score.

By the way, what platforms have dedicated servers? Xbox One, PS4, PC?

 

[TechnicPuppet]

Rubbish game still rubbish.

 

[Triphos]

It's COD: Ghosts, it's underperforming graphically on like every platform except the 360.

 

[Rey]

Everybody to the bunkers..

 

[Sotha_Sil]

Whole point of dropping the Xbox One version from 1080p to 720p was to maintain 60fps.

Why would Infinity Ward not do the same for the PS4 version?

 

[Syf]

Makes sense. Framerate is more important than resolution in a shooter in my opinion. Dunno why they tried to push 1080p on PS4 if it can't run that smoothly.

 

[Grief.exe]

impossible. is polygon a trusted site?

No.

They were initially funded by Microsoft and one of their writers is a staunch supporter of idiocy, Gies.

 

[darkwing]

so in this case, 720p > 1080p

 

[The Last One]

It's possible that the PS4 version looked somewhat sharper, but that may have just been my imagination after confirming the hard resolution difference.

 

[breakfuss]

lord have mercy, lol. meltdowns will ensue

 

[fluffydelusions]

PS4 version looks pretty smooth:

[bluehat9]

Xbox is only version without framerate drops!

Definitive version confirmed.

 

[silver.tongue]

In games like these where maintaining 60fps is key, peeformance is always more important than resolution. I have no idea why ininity ward did'nt drop the ps4 resolution as well. They could have just dropped it to 900p and it still would have been higher than xb1 + more stable than it is now.

The way CoD:G looks, it should be 1080p, locked at 60fps, on both consoles.
IW is a shadow of it's former self. Even the PC version runs like crap.

 

[Kyon]

It's possible that the PS4 version looked somewhat sharper, but that may have just been my imagination after confirming the hard resolution difference.
