Microsoft boasts about Xbox One 'Forza 5' 1080p resolution

4.5
Microsoft has tweeted about Forza: Motorsport 5's 1080p resolution.

After recent revelations that titles such as Call of Duty: Ghosts and Battlefield 4 run at a higher resolution on PS4, Microsoft tweeted a reminder that the Xbox One is also capable of running games at 1080p.

Responding to what has been dubbed "resolutiongate", Microsoft's Phil Spencer recently defended the console's capabilities, telling ShackNews that users "play the games, not the resolution".

Spencer also believes that "resolutiongate" will blow over at launch, and isn't concerned about the console's perceived lack of power.

Microsoft previously described Forza 5 as a "huge epic game" that runs at 60 frames per second in 1080p.

It will be available as an Xbox One launch title on November 22.

The game gives users the opportunity to race and set times on the Top Gear Test Track, and features commentary by Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond.

A Forza 5 Car Pass, which unlocks monthly car packs, will be available closer to launch.

Konviicted Guarantee the Xbox One is more powerful than the PS4. And I love Microsoft & Phil Spencer "user splay the games, not the resolution" haha


I can tell you're an xbox fanboy. Machinima, IGN, Game Informer, and Gamespot have already proven that the Ps4 is the way more powerful of the two. 1080p vs. 720p is a big difference whether they think it is or not. And I find it funny that they say you don't play resolution. That has such a huge impact on the game, so saying something like that is beyond full ****** imo.


I play cod4 on 1024x768 and it's still my fav. game. Problem? The resolution doesn't mean shit if the game is good

So if you play the game not the resolution why are they making such a big deal of it playing on 1080p? **** hypocrites.

You are clearly a Microsoft fanboy, and are in denial. It's funny how IGN, Game Informer, Machinima, and Gamespot have all concluded that the PS4 is by far the more powerful system, so keep telling yourself your little stories, it won't help the changing the truth.[/quote

"by far" not even. Many game developers have stated that they are almost identical in power. The only difference pretty much is the GDDR5 memory in ps4

No. They both have the same **** stats. Except PS4 has 8GB DDR5 RAM and X1 has 8GB DDR3. Stop spewing out nonsense.
