So what do you guys think? Granted, this is most likely damage control for the fact that the Xbox One is struggling to hit 1080p on certain games, compared to the PS4 which is having an easier time of it. But I honestly think there is some merit to what he's saying.
I myself have a 60", 1080p, 240Hz LED TV and think that even the Xbox One games at 900p (but upscaled to 1080p) still look pretty damn good. Most people would never even know the difference unless you had two identical TVs next to each other, and had an XO hooked up to one and a PS4 hooked up to the other. And even then, I bet some people still wouldn't be able to tell the difference in resolution, especially from the normal viewing distance of a couch.
And I do think that better FPS is more important, especially depending on the type of game. I'm willing to have a 900p game that runs smoothly as opposed to a 1080p game that is choppy and laggy. Granted, that problem could have been solved if MS had just put more powerful hardware in their console like Sony did, but still. IMO, smoother gameplay > a few extra pixels. And even Sony is having issues getting the PS4 to run above 30 FPS on certain games where they are determined to get 1080p at all costs.
What do you all think? Just damage control on XO's part? Or is there some merit to what is being said? Is it better to have higher FPS and smoother gameplay? Or is it better to have some more pixels and a possibly choppier experience?
