Ghost struggles on even gaming rig @ 1080p if you look at bechmarks. Which is weird. Rushed game as usual.

Activision will issue a day one patch for the PlayStation 4 version of Call of Duty: Ghosts that improves the native resolution of the single-player campaign, Eurogamer can exclusively reveal.

The patch makes the campaign output at a native 1080p resolution. Without it, the campaign outputs at 720p.

Eurogamer has since learned that a day one patch will be released to address the problem, which Activision is blaming on a "configuration issue".

"Call of Duty: Ghosts runs natively at 1080p on the PlayStation 4," an Activision spokesperson told Eurogamer this evening.

"There was a configuration issue in the retail version on single-player mode only. This has been addressed with a day one software update. People will be able to download the day one update when PlayStation 4 launches in their territory and play at native 1080p."

Without the day one update, you'll get the COD single-player upscaled, including the menu system and the HUD. Indeed, even the occasional screen-tear generated by the game is upscaled from 720p.
This makes the reviews that said there was a difference hilarious. And it makes the reviews that said there wasn't a difference now wrong.

The clusterfuck that is COD.

I got a custom made magneto helmet for times like these >.>

I wonder if there is any frame-rate benefits from playing the game in 720p.

Absolutely hilarious, those sites (lol @IGN) that claimed the PS4 version was noticeably sharper because of the resolution must be feeling pretty silly now. Hahaha!! I guess polygon are the only ones that can be trusted now, the rest of them just see what they are told :p

I wonder if polygon will alter their review once they get the day 1 patch...

Oh of course they won't...

If you're like, a 1080p person and care about minimal differences no one can really notice, get the PS4 version.
Lmao.

well placebo is a proven phenomenon... I dont think the reviewers are at fault, they were told it was 1080P... their brain played tricks on them

but at the end of the day, pixel peeping is pathetic. gameplay trumps everything

really sad that big devs dont seem to fracking get it... and im sick of games not running buttery smooth on a console, you know the hardware, so you should know how to maintain stable framerates

sorry for the rant.

i still have a few games left to play on my ps3 and x360. at this point Im getting a ps4 for the novelty, but deep down i know i should wait

PS any more light on rumors of PS4 + Steam?

So I think my PS4 will be shipping in tomorrow but I feel slightly underwhelmed today after watching the Sony launch show and finding no BLOW YOUR MIND MGS news.
For those who have received their PS4 early did you get that HOLY F#@(* MY MIND IS BLOWN moment ?
I know when I first turned on my launch XBox 360 on my CRT tv, my mind was literally blown by the slick interface and the graphics that even beat the PCs of that time.

seeing as no-one has posted it yet

NFS rivals face off

asset wise there is parity.

only difference come in the form of more high end versions of effects on the PS4, like bokeh DOF, HBAO and a less harsh AA solution which blurs things slightly in the xbox version especially at distance. you'll be happy with either version though.

both suffer from some framerate "bug" though. but they're working on a fix, hopefully in time for the 29th.

Here's what's even more funny: it is said that IGN was the only site that had a version with the 1080p patch already enabled on PS4. WTF is wrong with Activision?

It was terribly boring I'm afraid. All of the so called big announcements turned out to be pretty normal fanfare.

Comparing multiplats on consoles is pretty stupid. When everyone knows PC is the master race. lol.

As far as Ghost goes. The game is pretty bad on PC as well. Guru3d benchmark int the second chart which is little more than 1080P is not showing great performance as it should:http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/call_od_duty_vga_graphics_performance_benchmark,6.html

I think exclusives is the most important for consoles and specs too. Xbone or XO whatever people are calling it is trying to win living room for family. I think both will succeed but both have different goals.
