I'm amazed at how seriously people are taking this.
It's COD ffs. No one plays that game for it's visuals.
why do people act like this has anything to do with MS?
tee hee...couldn't help myself from posting this...
I am going to offer some logic here, for only a few sentences.
The X1 original dev hardware (sent out possibly 8-18 months ago) had 12 gigs of ram. The PS4 dev hardware had 3-5 gigs of ram (possibly sent out around the same timeframe as X1's).
I think that for the past year, or however long the dev kits were in the wild, companies were coding their games to those specifications.
When Sony found out X1 was going with 8 gigs earlier in the year, they upped theirs last minute to 8 as well. (big change for being so close to launch).
Microsoft seen no reason to really force the extra 4 gigs (and risk sounding like idiots) by saying "We actually decided on 12 gigs guys!". Their plan might of been to say 8 at first, then do 12 if Sony was at 12, or some other number that made X1 look weaker.
This left all companies scrambling to dumb down their un-optimized games for X1's lesser hardware. This is of course assuming the X1 devs were just making a mess with their coding and using up tons of extra ram for no apparent reason.
I am still convinced, even if this is not exactly what happened, that X1 did intend on 12 gigs of ram like their dev kits. But changed it last minute. The PS4 has only a small margin of power, yet plenty more 1080p offerings, only reinforcing such reasoning.
Forza 5 runs at 1080p 60fps. So there is no way COD couldn't do that.

Faceoffs this gen are going to be mighty interesting...
If COD can't render 1080p graphics, then Houston, we have a problem...I'm amazed at how seriously people are taking this.

So both famousmortimer and Bruceleroy are both waiting for another source to confirm? Shouldn't this be resolved by now? Unless they have the same source.
Those xbone fact marketing pages are feeding people bullshit.

Some serious goal post moving and downplaying in this thread already. People saying they prefer 720p and people saying that Call of Duty looks like shit so this revelation is irrelevant. What a load of shit pouring some mouths.
Please tell me IGNs video player has more compression than Youtube because, wow.

I think you need to think about the implications of this if the game can't run above 720p on the Xbone.I'm amazed at how seriously people are taking this.

Needs more attention in my opinion (this is Forbes in June)
In talking to a developer who wished to remain anonymous, gamers will see a difference on Day One when they compare third party PS4 games to Xbox One head-to-head. The developer told me the PS4 is 40 percent more powerful than Xbox One and games like Call of Duty Ghosts will be noticeably different out of the gate.
I don't know what videos or pictures you have seen, but the game look much better over Forza 4 when I played it at Eurogamer. You might want to get those eyes checked.
Yet, it looks a dozen times better than COD.Yeah, with pre-baked lighting and no AA.
Or so one sided it won't be interesting since every face off will be treated as "water is wet".
Assuming this ends up being true, the only thing more explosive would be if it's confirmed PS4 had 1080p and they downgrade it on purpose to 720p just to make it on par with xbox one.
I'm pretty confident the one person I saw saying they preferred 720p was obviously joking (the "too many pixels for my taste" post), and people have been saying this game looked underwhelming since day one.
