What yall gonna get for the B2G1 deal?

I'm thinking KZ and 2K14 for sure but i dunno about the third yet. I haven't really touched Madden 25 cause I heard it sucks but i dont really wanna load up on FPS either, I'll probably spend all my online time on KZ.

Infinity Ward explains why CoD Ghosts is native 720p on Xbox One

Infinity Ward executive producer Mark Rubin has moved to explain the resolution difference between the Xbox One and PS4 versions of Call of Duty Ghosts.

Having said last week that the Xbox One version of the shooter will run natively at 720p, while the PS4 version will run at 1080p, Rubin told Eurogamer that the difference was due to resource allocation issues faced by Infinity Ward's engineers.

"There's stuff in the console's OS that interacts with the game," he explained. "So, for instance, voice chat is often supported by the hardware manufacturer rather than the software, and you're just using their channel. When that stuff is changing - because they're developing it on their side - and the resources they're using are changing - your, from a game design standpoint, challenge is with trying to make enough room for those resources to be used but at the same time use as much resources as possible.

"One of the greatest challenges the engineers have to deal with is memory management, or thread management. There are X number of threads in your CPUs. Where in those threads is the stuff that's Microsoft or Sony? Where does it fall? How does it work? We don't have the SDKs for those features yet, and then they come in and you go, okay, well it needs 3MB of RAM - oh, crap, we only allocated two! You can't just take a MB from anywhere. It's not like there's just tonnes of it just laying there. You have to pull it from something else. And now you have to balance that somewhere."

In the case of Ghosts, Rubin said: "There's no specific, oh, well, the VO chat on Xbox took up so much resources that we couldn't do 1080p native. There's no definitive one to one per se cause and effect. It's just an overall thing. We took each system individually and said, 'okay, let's make the best game for each system.'

"I think both look great. Some people might notice if they had them right next to each other. Some people might not. The Xbox One is 1080p output, it's just upscaled hardware wise. It was a late decision, too. That call wasn't made until a month ago."

Rubin also told Edge that it would be wrong to suggest Ghosts is confirmation that Xbox One is a weaker console than PS4.

"It's a much more complex answer - there's so much to it, it's a balancing act when you get into optimisation - we need more time with it all, basically," he said. "It could be years from now until we get to the point where we feel like we've maxed out what we can do on both platforms.

"We might get more resources back at one point. And that could make things change dramatically for the Xbox One, for instance. It's a long complicated road that will take years to develop, and I think at the end we'll have games looking very similar, usually, on both systems.

"This is the first game on the console and there's a lot for us to learn with the new hardware so it's a long-running process - you compare COD 2 to COD 4 it's a massive leap forward in graphical fidelity. So I think we expect the same thing on both platforms."

It's just ironic & funny how a company like Microsoft who's rep is known for software & OS's is the main issue & culprit with the Xbone causing performance issues.

I use to be hooked on Killzone 2 until I picked up MW2 then I stopped playing it completely. Since then it's been COD every year. Although, I still enjoy COD, I think it's about that time to take it to the next level n pick up battlefield

I picked up black ops 2 a few months after it released for $40 off of amazon and was planning to do the same with Ghost. Now with this target deal I could grab it for free

NBA 2k14
Battlefield 4
Ghost

Now the Target deal makes sense with FIFA, Madden, and Battlefield being "Available Tuesday"

The confusion was the way they listed the games on the ad with some releasing Friday n then the others Tuesday. Until I saw this list I thought they were referring to the following Tuesday after Friday

Funny thing about that article, it goes back to what I said a couple of pages ago. They expect the X1 to be 1080P from here on out.

Man that launch lineup looking weak.

Looking at bf4 kz and 2k

Really don't want 2 fps but there's nothin else on there that interest me

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

No shots at all jet, but it seems like every time someone posts something negative about the xbox  you pop up shortly after 

   maybe it's just a coincidence tho

Watch them put Joey Bats on the Canadian cover for the third year in a row. The only way I'll be able to tell the difference is that it'll be a PS4 box.

 

[Bad Religion]

BF4's campaign was ultra short and very easy, even on hard.

Like clockwork

 

[eugenile gts]

is getting a ps4 or xbox one and playing it on a dinky 40" hdtv not 120hz lcd 720p (not 1080p) and not have a properly setup surround sound system (at least 5.1) like owning a ferrari and keeping it in first gear?

 

[vintuc]

Only reason I would get COD Ghosts is if it has local multiplayer (offline) I will play KZ for any of my online gaming needs, but COD offline is always fun when you have a bunch of friends over.

PS4 yes. Xbox One, nah. One games are only 720 anyways

Word. I agree, I need to be more proactive in my actual Sony news.. My bad.

Heres a little nugget though:
I'll be picking up NBA 2k14 and COD tomorrow for the PS4... I knew I could get COD but I didn't know 2K would be available..

In other news, I won't be taking part in the Midnight release, I'll be in Dallas until 11/15 at 11:45pm :x So... That's gonna suck

Hoping for Trout on the cover stateside though
